The nerve on Luna's forehead throbbed fiercely!
She turned to look at Joshua. "What do you mean by that?"
Joshua calmly looked out of the car window. His voice was low but it had no whatsoever emotions.
"The fact that you could be threatened by Aura and be let by the nose, besides Neil, the other reason was Theo.
"Neil is still alright. He is Aura's bargaining chip to be used against me, so it's easy for us to see Neil and get him to stay by my side.
"But Theo is different. Besides you meeting him by the beach on that day, Theo has never shown his face once.
"Theo is Aura's hidden ace card. Not only could she use him to threaten you, but she could also even threaten Neil when needed."
Then, Joshua turned to look at Luna. "Aura does not have many places in Banyan City. The abandoned factory here today is the only one. According to my understanding of her, if she were to kidnap Nigel and Nellie, she would most likely tie them up and lock them up in the same place as Theo."
Luna was stunned. At that moment only then did she
realize what Joshua meant. She bit her lips and glared at Joshua rather angrily.
"You long knew that this incident today is a set up, right? You deliberately agreed to Neil this morning because of this? So, for you to locate Theo, you were going to risk Nellie and Nigel's life?"
Of course, it was important to find Theo, but did that mean that Nigel and Nellie were not important?
Getting the two six-year-old children in danger. Was this Joshua's plan?
Perhaps he had long predicted Luna’s reaction, Joshua sighed and said, "This is Nigel's plan."
