“Mr. Joshua, do you intend to let Uncle Lucas off so easily?”
Joshua responded faintly and continued with his work.
“Unbelievable.” Nigel pursed his lips.
“I thought that you’d punish him severely, given how mad you are.”
With his lips curled up, Joshua gazed at the woman beside Nigel who sported pale yellow pajamas and
was texting with her phone in a terrible fix.
She was probably busy discussing with and Gwen about June’s disappearance and Laura’s incident.
The way she looked when she was replying to the text with seriousness was so endearing that Joshua
wanted to just pull her into his arms.
Nonetheless, he knew that it was not the time to get cozy and lovey-dovey.
Therefore, Joshua could only look the other away and smiled.
“Remember, your mother pleaded for him.”
There was a pause for a moment, and Nigel finally understood after a while.
Luna had purposely asked Lucas to tell the truth because she was pleading for him.
Nigel sighed and was about to say something when all of a sudden, the phone in his hand rang.
It was a text message from his cousin, Harvey.
[Nigel, help!
[Your future sister-in-law has been kidnapped!)
[Her hair has been shaved, too-it’s what she cares about the most!]
[What should we do?]
Nigel furrowed his brow and replied, [Why don’t we buy some wigs for her?]
Harvey’s response came instantly.
[I already did!)
[I still don’t think that is enough to comfort her.] [I’m thinking about shaving my head, too, but I feel
awkward if I do it on my own!]
[Cousin, why don’t we do it together…?].
Nigel’s response came with indifference.
[I refuse.]
[If you’re that awkward, you can get Mr. Jim to shave his head with you.]
[I’m not going to entertain you.]
Looking at the text messages, Harvey sighed.
He sat on the couch with the phone in his hand, his palm-sized face filled with sorrow.
Jim, who was busy investigating June’s location, glanced at his son.
He got close to Harvey and took a look at Harvey’s phone. “You’re planning to shave your head and turn
ugly with June?” Harvey nodded.
“Yes.
Do you want to do it with me, Mr. Jim?” Jim laughed.
“I’m afraid I’ll have to decline.” He stroked Harvey’s head EPNjWA<3 added, “Have you forgotten? I’m
marrying your mother next week.” Harvey rolled his eyes.
“But she hasn’t said yes to you yet.” “I’ll have her agree to it.” Jim looked at Harvey’s little face solemnly,
extending his hand to grab Harvey’s. “I’ve decided” Before he could finish his sentence, Jim’s phone
rang.
It was a call from Assistant Lowe, whom he had sent to investigate the orphanage.
“Mr. Landry, I have new information about the name list from the orphanage.”
