Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 2073

"But..."

Joshua's gaze turned dark as he stared at a distance. "If someone were to abduct her, this means that she has an accomplice."

Then, he turned to glance at Luna. "Do you remember what I asked Charlotte just now at the orphanage?"

Luna furrowed her brows and contemplated this for a moment. "You asked her if she knows someone named Sirius."

Joshua smiled when he heard this.

He reached out to gently stroke Luna's hair and replied tenderly, "You have a good memory.

"The reason I asked her if she knew him was not that I didn't have that information, but instead, I had already guessed it myself and was just giving her a chance to come clean with the truth.

"The fact that she refused to tell the truth means that she treasured this person so much that she was willing to go to jail than expose Sirius's true identity.

"And now that she has been kidnapped..."

Joshua curled his lips into a faint, cold smile. "Even though Charlotte being abducted won't tell us who Sirius is nor will it prove that they know each other, at least it lets us know that someone in Merchant City still cares about her.

"Not only that, but there's a high probability that this person is Sirius, or at least someone related to him."

Luna fell silent upon hearing this. She considered this for a long time before finally understanding the logic of this sequence of events.

A split second later, she smacked her forehead in realization and exclaimed at the top of her lungs, "Are you thinking that the Quinn family is related to Sirius?"

According to the evidence they had, they could safely conclude that Charlotte and Sirius had been working together all along.

Otherwise, how would a woman in her early twenties, who had grown up an orphan, be able to obtain evidence of Todd killing Colin Landry in the past and even use this to threaten him?

This meant that it was likely that Sirius had been looking out for Charlotte all this while.
