Chapter 2052 Theo furrowed his brows and quickly declined the call when he heard Jim asking about Roanne. “I…haven’t been in touch with her at all. You must be mistaken.”
With that, he let out an exhale and circled past Jim. “Well, I need to get back soon, so I’ll be off
now.”
How could Jim let Theo go just like that?
Roanne had kidnapped Shelly and demanded Charlotte meet her the next day.
“Theo.” Jim narrowed his eyes and said sternly, his gaze fixed on Theo’s face, “Are you in on this with Roanne? Is the medicine for Shelly? Has Shelly fallen sick?”
Theo did not know how to answer these questions, but the longer he stayed silent, the more confident Jim grew in his suspicion that Theo was working together with Roanne.
He lunged forward and grabbed hold of Theo’s collar. “Tell me! Where the hell is Shelly?!
“You’re Luna’s friend, and Joshua had been so kind as to offer you a place to stay, so how could you have done this? Shelly is my daughter and Luna and Joshua’s niece!
“Have you forgotten that I’m Luna’s half-brother and Joshua’s cousin?”
Theo was frozen in shock by how aggressive Jim sounded.
A split second later, he furrowed his brows and asked, “So? What does this have to do with me?
He had only come to the hospital to buy some medicine for June, who had fallen sick but refused to take the medication that Dr. Suess prescribed for her.
Where did Jim get the idea that he was involved in kidnapping his daughter with Roanne?
What an imagination.
