Chapter 2366
Luna's hand that hovered over her cutleries froze the second she heard Rosalyn speak. She looked up and was dumbfounded by what Rosalyn said.Her face was so stiff that she could not force her expression to fall into normalcy.
‘How is that possible? From the investigation result Joshua received, the people behind it were Butler Fred and Mickey.The timing matches when Granny Lynch was poisoned, and Mickey left Landry Mansion to go back to his hometown.I refuse to believe that Mother was the one who did it"
Luna thought and she raised her head subconsciously to look at Butler Fred and Mickey.
Perhaps Butler Fred never thought Luna would suddenly look at him because all this while, he stared at Rosalyn with a peculiarly pleasant gaze as though elated his plan had worked.
Suddenly, he sensed that Luna was looking at him, and he quickly turned his body slightly to meet Luna's eyes.He was caught off-guard for only a moment before he offered her a flattering smile, one that made Luna feel uneasy.
She took a deep breath and bit her lip before she lowered her head to continue her breakfast.
Jim looked at Rosalyn as he curled up his lips remotely.
'"Mother, I know you're a kind woman.Maybe you'd take the blame for the things that you didn't do and put it on yourself for some reason, but..."
Jim looked at Luna, then at Butler Fred, and finally gazed at Rosalyn once more.
"In this case, Ihope you won't take the blame for this because you have a soft heart.Think about it..."
He paused for a while.
"Granny Lynch is Joshua's grandmother and my biological mother's mother.We didn't want to pursue this further because you're my foster mother and Luna's mother.Yes, the poison that Granny Lynch had is somehow related to you, but we're not willing to talk about this when we haven't investigated the truth behind it, so I don't understand why you're doing this now."
