Chapter 2488

“Where are you going?” a crisp, childish voice rang out from behind Joshua before he could hang up the

call.

He immediately turned around and came face–to–face with Neil, dressed in a dashing suit. “Daddy, don‘t you think

it‘s a little inappropriate for you to leave at a time like this?”

Joshua furrowed his eyebrows before a small smile spread across his face.

He ambled over to Neil and squatted so that they were at eye level with each other. “What‘s inappropriate about

that?”

Neil‘s breath caught in his throat when he met his father‘s cold gaze, but he still replied obediently.” Daddy, Aunt

Bonnie in is a life and death situation now, and Mommy‘s entire family is trying their best to save her...so it would

come off rude if you were to leave now.”

Joshua narrowed his eyes and glanced helplessly at the boy before him.

Out of the three children, Nigel was always the silent one, and even though he was a mature and trustworthy child,

he never seemed to care about maintaining harmony in interpersonal relationships.

Nellie was the youngest and had been spoiled by Luna and her two elder brothers. Therefore, even though she was

still considered mature for her age, she was the most mischievous of the three.

Neil, on the other hand, did not appear to be as talented as his brother and sister in their respective fields, but he

was still an intelligent child with good ideas constantly. Because of this, he was always a considerate person and

would frequently take other people‘s feelings into account before doing something

Therefore, Joshua was not at all surprised that Neil would be the one to say this to him.

Joshua let out an exhale and gently stroked Neil‘s head, then replied, “Neil, you know better than anyone that I‘m

not a doctor nor a healthcare professional or any sort, much less someone who knows how to bring back the dead.

“Even if I stay here, I won‘t be of much use to your Aunt Bonnie at all.

“On the contrary, the person who tried to hurt her is waiting anxiously for news of her death right now, and

because of this, he won‘t try to escape yet.

“If I don‘t seize the opportunity to ambush him right now, he‘ll surely escape when news of your Aunt Bonnie

spreads.”

Neil fell silent upon hearing this. He knew that logically speaking, Joshua was right, but...

He also knew that Luna was an emotional person, and if Joshua were to leave at such a critical time and Aunt

Bonnie did not make it through, she would accuse him of being a coldhearted person...

At the thought of this, Neil sighed and lifted his head to meet Joshua‘s gaze. “Daddy, can you tell me that ...the

person who tried to harm Aunt Bonnie...”

The glimmer in his eyes seemed to dim as he said, “Is it Uncle Malcolm?”

Joshua‘s entire body froze upon hearing this. A split second later, he furrowed his eyebrows and shot Neil a puzzled

look. “How did you know?”

Joshua himself had only discovered Malcolm‘s appearance at the hospital after hearing Lucas‘ report, so how did

Neil manage to guess it so accurately?

“Because...” Neil sighed before explaining, “Last night, Harvey wasn‘t feeling very well, so June secretly made some

soup for him and asked me to send it to the hospital for him.

“When I did this, I saw Uncle Malcolm coming out of the hospital and getting into his car…

“I was confused when I saw this because I thought he had already left Merchant City. I even thought I had mistaken

someone else for him.”

Then, he bit his lip and said nervously, “Now that you mention someone tried to hurt Aunt Bonnie last night, I can‘t

help but think of him...”

A glimmer of disappointment flashed through his eyes. “Uncle Malcolm practically watched Nigel, Nellie, and I grow

up, and I used to think he was a good person...”
