Chapter 2307
Jim lifted his head to stare at Joshua, his eyes dull and lackluster.
"Why else would Mother do this, then?"
He could not think of any reason to justify Rosalyn stopping Christopher from returning to help Bonnie.
"Perhaps she wasn't trying to stop Christopher from flying back to help at all, but just trying to prevent him from coming back during a time like this.
After all, she knows better than anyone what condition Christopher is in...
"She didn't want Christopher to return because she knew that if he saw the state Bonnie and June were in, it'd trigger a psychotic episode, and he'd blame everything on you.”
"Rosalyn was just concerned about you and Bonnie, and she wanted nothing more than for you to have a happy, smooth wedding ceremony.This was why she chose not to disclose this to Christopher and even instructed him not to return home."
Joshua's words made the glimmer in Jim's eyes return.He stared dazedly at Joshua and asked, "Are you...Do you think that's what happened?"
"Of course." Joshua smiled at him.
"Bonnie is a good person, and I'm sure God will bless her.Rosalyn was just doing this for you and Bonnie because she didn't want to see your wedding being gatecrashed."
Jim let out a sigh as he closed his eyes.
"But I ruined the wedding ceremony myself."
"Now's not the time to feel guilty."
Seeing that Jim had finally bought into Joshua's explanation, Luna let out a sigh of relief and interrupted Jim before he could fall into a spiral of guilt, "What we have to do now is get to the bottom of what Mickey and Butler Fred have up their sleeves."
They had used Sean's address to forge a message to Christopher from Bonnie, making it seem as though Sean had deliberately triggered Christopher's psychotic episode.
