Chapter 2272
Joshua’s eyebrows frowned when he heard Luna’s voice but did not even turn around.
“It’s too dangerous, Luna. You should stay home with the children and await my news.”
Then, he strode out the door.
Luna immediately grabbed hold of his arm, frowning in disapproval.
“Anything that has to do with Christopher has to do with the Landry family, and I’m a part of the Landry
family, too.” She stared at Joshua with an earnest yet solemn look.
“I want to go with you.”
Joshua furrowed his brows even more when he saw how tightly Luna gripped his hand.
“Luna, do you have any idea what we’ll be facing today? We’re talking about a mentally ill man on the
verge of going insane, and he has a weapon with him!
“We can’t afford to hurt Christopher because of his rtions with the Landry family, and the only choice
we have is to try to coax him to put down the knife.
“Do you even know how difficult this is going to be? Do you have any idea how dangerous this is and
how many people might be hurt as a result?”
As he said this, Joshua gently pried each of Luna’s fingers off of him.
“Luna, I don’t want you toe with me. I don’t want to put you in any danger.”
Luna’s entire body stiffened when she heard this.N?velDrama.Org (C) content.
However, a split secondter, she reached out to grab his arm once more.
“I know you’re worried about me, Joshua, but that doesn’t mean I’m not worried about you.”
She lunged forward and wrapped both her arms around Joshua’s arm like a ko.
“I won’t let you leave the house unless you take me with you!”
“Just bring her along, Joshua.” Theo sighed when he saw the determined look in Luna’s eyes and gently
patted Joshua’s shoulder.
“Your three children are already trying their best to buy you some extra time, so let’s not make their
efforts go to waste.
“You only have twenty-five minutes, so you’d better not waste any more time and just bring Luna along
with you. If there’s anything you’d like to say to each other, you can do so in the car.
“Besides, it’s only fair for Luna to be worried about your safety, too. Worstes to worst, you can lock
her in the car when you arrive instead of wasting your time arguing with her now.
Joshua furrowed his brows when he heard this.
A split secondter, he let out a sigh took Luna’s hand in his.
“Alright, you cane with me.”
Theo was right; they had no time to waste.
If he were to continue arguing with Luna about this, he would only be wasting precious time, and if
anything terrible were to happen as a result, both of them would regret this for the rest of their lives.
Seeing that Joshua had finally relented, Luna shot Theo an appreciative nce and followed Joshua out
the door. Theo remained motionless, watching the two of them leave. Then, he turned to nce at Nigel
and Neil, who were busying themselves in the study, and sighed.
“Uncle Theo.” Nellie reached out to grab his sleeve.
“Do you want toe with me to the kitchen and help me cook?”
Theo fell silent for a moment, then squatted to pick up Nellie in his arms. “Of course I do.”
Then, as he carried Nellie down the stairs, he could not helpmenting, “Your Daddy and Mommy love
each other very much.”
“Uncle Theo, I know you and Aunt Rachel love each other very much, too.” Nellie winked at him.
“Since you can tell my Daddy and Mommy are very much in love, why is it so hard for you to see that
Aunt Rachel is head over heels for you, too?”
Theo curled his lips into a bitter smile.
“I know that.” However, he knew how stubborn Rachel was. If she made up her mind about something,
nothing would be able to sway her decision. It did not matter that they were in love. They could not be
together anyway…and it was all his fault.
Merchant City Center.
There was a terrible traffic jam in the heart of the city, and the taxi driver smacked his steering wheel in
frustration.
“What the hell is going on today? Has the whole city gone into chaos just because Jim Landry, the young
master of the Landry family, is getting married today?”
