CHAPTER 2038

Did Sean not say that June and Shelly had both been abducted? If so, what was june doing here

at Joshua’s house?

Luna, too, was a little perplexed by this. “What… What’s going on?” Seeing that both Bonnie and

Luna’s faces had morphed with shock, Joshua curled his lips into a smirk, strode over to June, and

gently patted her head. “Why don’t you tell your two aunts what happened?”

June had always been a little intimidated by Joshua’s cold, assertive demeanor, and with Joshua

patting her head, she was so nervous that her teeth chattered.

“After that, he returned to the house with a little doll disguised as Shelly, and we arrived here!

With that, she pointed at the room behind her. “Shelly’s in there, sleeping!” Bonnie immediately burst

into tears of happiness upon hearing this. She immediately stormed past them and into the house,

exclaiming, “Shelly!” Luna remained motionless and stared in disbelief at Joshua. “You knew that

someone would try to harm Shelly?”

If Joshua had not known this, he would not have set up such an elaborate scheme at all. Joshua

smiled, walked over to her side, and pulled her into his arms. “I guess you can say that, “he answered

in a soft voice.

“When I found out that Quentin’s men had deliberately caused traffic congestion to trap Bonnie and that

he had killed Jim’s assistant, I knew that Shelly wouldn’t be safe. “The thing that Charlotte would fear

most at a time like this is Jim finding out about her lies and that she wasn’t related to Shelly at all.

“Therefore, the first thing she had to do was prevent Jim from seeing that DNA report, and the second

was to get rid of Shelly.

“As long as Shelly died, Jim would be so engulfed by his grief that he wouldn’t even want to do a DNA

test to confirm Shelly’s identity.

“Therefore, I ordered Lucas to get in touch with the butler at Landry Mansion and managed to sneak

the children out.”

Luna bit her lip upon hearing this. A split second later, she lifted her head to stare at him. “But since

Charlotte intended to kill Shelly to distract Jim…she could’ve sent someone to choke her right in her

bed, so why did she have to kidnap her instead?”

Logically speaking, it was far easier to kill a two-month-old baby rather than abduct it.

Tohill a baby required only brute force, but to kidnap one not only needed manpower, and she had to

risk being caught and her plans failing.

Toshua chuckled when he saw how immersed Luna was in her thoughts, “What do you think? Even I

could’ve thought of the possibility that Charlotte would try to kill this child… do you think someone who

had been with her for almost ten years wouldn’t?

“By taking the child away, she would have leverage over Charlotte that she could use to threaten her.”

Achill went down Luna’s spine upon hearing this. She lifted her head to stare at him, “Are you saying

that the person who kidnapped the baby… was Roanne?”

Joshua nodded and replied, “Just now, Theo received a call asking him to prepare and bring some

baby supplies to a specified location. What do you think Roanne is planning to do with these things?”

Luna was a little speechless by this. She could not believe that Roanne was willing to betray Charlotte,

whom she had spent almost ten years with, and yet did not forget to contact Theo to help her! Joshua’s

guesses had been right all along; Roanne had fallen prey to Theo, after all.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
