Poison? Again?
Agitated, Luna‘s eyebrows furrowed. “Isn’t Nikki in jail now?”
Why was Bonnie poisoned again? The mere idea baffled Luna. Who else harbored such hostility toward Bonnie in Merchant City, other than Nikki who was jealous of Bonnie because of Sean? At this point, Bonnie had been poisoned twice. She did not originate from Merchant City, so Luna did not understand why many people wanted to poison Bonnie.
“Those who hurt Bonnie might not be Bonnie‘s enemy.” Joshua seemed to be able to read Luna‘s mind. He sighed and held Luna‘s hand lightly. “Everyone knows that Bonnie is Jim‘s beloved woman and your best friend. There are always many people around you and Jim. Of course, Bonnie is just a patient, and not only can‘t she speak or move, but she also can‘t see who was next to her to harm her. It‘s easier to go after Bonnie than the others around you and Jim. It cost less, too.”
Joshua‘s voice was low and cold as he added, “That‘s why they‘d choose to harm Bonnie.”
“That‘s right.” Charles nodded in agreement. “It‘s definitely better to harm a patient than a healthy person. Also…” Charlies sighed and looked down at Rosalyn, who was in front of him in her wheelchair. He sounded grateful and in peace as he continued, “Now, Bonnie is awake.
“What if Bonnie didn‘t wake up? Sooner or later, there will be estrangement between Jim and Rosalyn.”
This was a situation they had never thought of. All the while, they thought Jim would be happier if they hid the truth that Bonnie would eventually wake up. Additionally, they wanted to have Jim truly cherish the moment and realize his true feelings for Bonnie.
