“That’s because I promised Senior Howard I’d do anything to protect his lawyer.” Joshua sighed and turned to glance at the streets below him with a look of helplessness. “I wasn’t the one who had filmed Senior Howard’s will–it was Mr. Zink.
“After I received the recording, Senior Howard had called me himself to ask me to protect Mr. Zink. This was why I sent Steven and Gwen to rescue him before I posted the video online.”
Luna was surprised by this.
Joshua was right. If he had released the video prior to ensuring Mr. Zink’s safety, Tina and Dan would find a way to exterminate Mr. Zink before they got arrested. Therefore, Joshua had taken great care to ensure Mr. Zink was safe before going after Tina and Dan.
At this thought, Luna sighed and said, “You’re such a detail–oriented person; nothing ever seems to faze you or disturb your plans.”
No matter what happened, Joshua never failed to remain calm somehow and be the most reliable person among them in the face of adversity.
“Do you think so?” Joshua let out a self–deprecating chuckle. “if I’m as good as you claim, our daughter wouldn’t have gone missing for so long.”
Luna’s heart sank at this.
She closed her eyes and sighed.
Even though she never wanted to give up on finding their daughter, the truth was…
Their daughter had been kidnapped three or four months ago, and according to her experience, it was not easy raising a baby.
If the kidnapper wanted to raise the child and eventually use her as a hostage against Luna and Joshua, all was good, but…
If the person just wanted her and Joshua to experience the pain of losing a child, the baby was unlikely to have survived.
Besides, if the kidnapper had wanted to use the child against her and Joshua, he or she would not have disappeared for so long without a trace.
Therefore, Luna was more inclined to believe that… their child was probably already dead.
Because of this, despite still wanting to track down their daughter, Luna deliberately tried to avoid talking about this and actually doing it.
The more time passed, the less hope she had of actually finding the child.
Joshua knew Luna was reluctant to talk about this any further. He sighed and pulled Luna close to him. “Don’t worry. No matter what happens, we’ll get an answer eventually.”
Bonnie and Jim had already sent a sample of Shelly’s DNA to the lab to be cross–matched with his and Luna’s.
No matter what the outcome of the test was, they would get an answer soon enough. “Yes.” Luna could not stop her tears from falling at the thought of her lost child.
Just as Joshua was in the middle of consoling her, however, her phone rang.
It was Yannie.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Yannie’s voice was croaky as she wailed, “Luna, Riley has gone missing!”
