This sudden news made Joshua frown.
Luna immediately bit her lip when she heard this. “Has Charlotte been involved with the Quinn family all
this while?”
“Yes.” Joshua narrowed his eyes, grabbed Luna’s hand, and said in a cold, emotionless tone, “She has
been in touch with Quentin all this while.”
If it were not for Quentin’s help, Charlotte would not have been able to cause a traffic jam in the middle of
the city to prevent Bonnie from reaching the DNA Diagnostic Center.
“Quentin?” Luna fell silent for a moment and suddenly recalled the surveillance footage she had seen at
Dr. Liddell’s research facility in Lincoln City.
She would never be able to forget the face of the man named Quentin.
She would never be able to forget the fact that…this man had visited Rosalyn in the lab under the
pretense of being her brother.
As soon as he left, Rosalyn’s condition had deteriorated greatly, so much so that she almost lost the will
to survive.
If Jim had not successfully delivered Charles to Lincoln City the next day…
Luna could not imagine what would have happened then.
Maybe at this moment, Rosalyn would have been buried several feet underneath the ground.
As soon as she thought of this, Luna furrowed her brows and asked, “Since Charlotte has been in touch
with Quentin all this while, could she have been part of what happened in Lincoln City, when Quentin
went to visit my mother?” Luna’s words had reminded Joshua of this possibility that he had never thought
of before. He fell silent for a moment and finally replied, “It’s possible.” With that, he strode away,
bringing Luna with him, back toward the car.
Luna could not help frowning as she watched Joshua open the car door for her like the gentleman he
was. For some reason, she could not help feeling that… Joshua did not seem at all bothered by
Charlotte being abducted from beneath their nose. This did not seem right.
After all, Joshua had planned this for a long time, down to every last detail, including how he had
persuaded Roanne to betray Charlotte and lead to her downfall.
It had been Joshua’s idea to bring Theo along with them as they waited for Roanne outside Landry
Mansion.
He had used Theo as a lure to rope Roanne into all this and had successfully exposed Charlotte’s true
colors to Jim.
He had spent a lot of time and effort perfecting this plan, but at the last moment, he did not seem
troubled by the fact that Charlotte had been kidnapped.
Not only that, but Luna could tell that he was a little relieved by this.
It was as though he had hoped Charlotte would be taken away.
What was going on in this man’s mind?
On their way home, Luna could not help sneaking glances at Joshua from the backseat.
He seemed to be in a good mood.
Occasionally, he would play with his phone and sometimes stare out the window with a small smile.
Luna could not understand this.
When the car finally came to a halt, she could not stop herself from calling out after Joshua as he
opened the door, “Joshua.”
Her brows were knitted in a frown. “Why aren’t you at all bothered by Charlotte’s kidnapping?”
She did not even hear him send anyone to follow or find her.
How could he let the Quinn family take Charlotte away just like that without even attempting to track her
down? Joshua raised his brows upon hearing this. A split second later, he smiled and replied, “Well, I
guess that’s one way to put it.” Luna’s face was etched with confusion. “But why?” “Because if no one
came to rescue her, this would mean that she had planned all this herself and that she had no
accomplice.”
