Chapter 2487
This sentence seemed to put everyone on their toes.
All of a sudden, Luna felt as though an invisible hand was squeezing her heart.
How could this be? Did Rosalyn not say that Bonnie was not poisoned at all and could wake up
tonight? Why was Bonnie still unconscious and worse...had stopped breathing altogether?
"Bonnie..."
Jim, who had already prepared himself for this moment, tried to feel for Bonnie's breath.
After doing so, he remained silent and instead wrapped his arms around Bonnie's legs tightly.
Apart from Jim and Harvey, everyone else in the room had expressions of shock plastered across their
faces, including Rosalyn.
"No—this can't be!"
Rosalyn narrowed her eyes and stood up from her wheelchair.Her drug could never go wrong! Unless...
Unless Nikki had added something else into the syringe when poisoning Bonnie! However, Nikki had
always thought this was a real poison and could not possibly have added anything else into the
concoction.
At the thought of this, Rosalyn tried to sprint in Bonnie's direction, but she was so frail that after two
steps, her legs gave out beneath her.
Charles quickly picked her up when he saw her fall.
"Are you okay?"
"No..."
Rosalyn stared at Bonnie in the distance and said in a trembling voice, "Bring me over...I want to check
on Bonnie!"
Charles nodded and quickly shuffled over to Bonnie's side with Rosalyn in his arms.
"There's no need to waste your energy, Mother."
Jim let out a bitter chuckle when he saw the worry on Rosalyn's face.
"Didn't you already say that there was nothing you could do? I've already accepted this fact."
He failed to mention that his heart withered soon after.
"No, it's not that, Jim."
Rosalyn exhaled, strode forward, and felt for Bonnie's breath, furrowing her brows.
Bonnie's symptoms...did not seem right!
"Come help me."
Rosalyn glanced at Jim.
"I want to do CPR on her.
"Jim let out a calm, bitter chuckle.
"What use is it to do CPR now?"
The time had already come, and this was Bonnie's cue to leave, was it not? In the days after she had
been poisoned, Jim had tried to find ways of curing her, but it all led him to disappointment.
Now that he had already prepared himself for this moment talked himself out of taking his life to join
Bonnie, why was everyone so agitated over this, as though none of them had accepted the truth? Was
it because he was too cold-hearted?
"I can't explain this to you now."
Rosalyn frowned and said urgently, "If you still want Bonnie to live, come help me right now.There was
a hint of solemness in Rosalyn's urgent voice.Jim hesitated for a moment, then finally sighed.
"Alright."
He was probably the person who wanted Bonnie to live more than ever.Luna furrowed her brows,
glanced at Joshua, and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you going to help?"
"There's no need for so many people."
Joshua frowned, and a glimmer of malice flashed through his eyes as he gazed in Jim and Rosalyn's
direction.He had sent a team of outstanding medical doctors to check on Bonnie's condition every day,
and they would also give Rosalyn a copy of her medical report daily without fail.
Therefore, Rosalyn had always been in the loop about Bonnie's condition, and if anything were to go
wrong, she would be first to find out.It had been seven days, and all her parameters had been stable.
Because of this, Rosalyn was confident that Bonnie's immune system was recovering tremendously
and she would wake up in time.
Why, then, did she stop breathing at the moment she was supposed to wake up? The fact that Rosalyn
was trying to perform CPR on Bonnie meant that her condition was critical...
Joshua narrowed his eyes and let go of Luna's grasp.
"I'll go check on this."
Then, he strode out of the house and dialed Lucas' number.
"Sir, I'm in the hospital surveillance room right now, and the footage shows that..."
Lucas furrowed his eyebrows, staring at the screen before him, and said in a trembling voice, "Around
midnight, Mr.Landry left Ms.Craig's room for about half an hour because Young Master Harvey wasn't
feeling well, and he had to take him home.
"The surveillance footage of Ms.Craig's room during this half hour was wiped entirely, but..."
Lucas let out an exhale.One person was caught on the hospital entrance security camera during this
time..."
Joshua narrowed his eyes.
"Who is it?"
"It's...Mr.Lucifer Howard, the former Malcolm Quinn...
"The time he entered and left the hospital...lines up perfectly with the time Mr.Landry and Young Master
Harvey left Ms.Craig's room."
Joshua's hand, which was holding the phone, stiffened when he heard this.He fixed his gaze on a point
in the distance, and a glimmer of malice flashed through his cold stare.
Malcolm Quinn.
Not only had he brainwashed Thomas, his biological cousin, to turn against him, but he even tried to
hurt Bonnie so that Jim would fall into a pit of despair and be unable to run the family business! Even
though Samuel kept praying for him and trying to help him redeem himself, Malcolm still had no ounce
of regret at all! Joshua narrowed his eyes.
This time, he would not show Malcolm mercy no matter what.He still had not taken revenge on him for
his past sins yet.
"Where is he now?"
Lucas fell silent for a moment before finally saying, "He...He's being well protected in Mr.Thomas
Howard's private residence."
Lucas sighed and asked tentatively, "Sir, I know you're probably irate right now, but you'd better
consider all your options before taking revenge on Mr.Quinn...
"If you don't handle this appropriately, it'll further strain your relationship with Mr.Thomas Howard.
"Mr.Howard is the son of your mother's twin sister, after all, and he— i "He doesn't even give a shit
about me,"
Joshua interrupted him curtly.
"I cherish all my friends and family, but..."
He narrowed his eyes.
"Thomas Howard doesn't deserve any of this."
Lucas did not dare to object any further upon hearing this.
"Sir...do you plan to..."
"Get my car ready."
Joshua let out a sharp exhale.
"I want to go to Thomas Howard's place right now and demand he hand over Malcolm."
