"What do you mean by not well?”
Nigel held the phone, furrowed his brows, and asked.
Jude sighed and looked at Joshua on the bed once more. He turned around and headed outside to the corridors.
"We’re at the hospital right now. There was a... socializing event last night. Joshua was drinking with me. His stomach problems acted up and he is currently still unconscious."
Upon hearing what Jude said, Nigel subconsciously widened his eyes.
Did Joshua not come over to look for Luna the night before? He remembered when his Mommy came back with reddened eyes, it was already 10:30 p.m.
It was impossible for Joshua to have a socializing event at that tie.
However, what Jude said did not seem all fake.
Therefore, Nigel boldly deduced that Joshua went drinking with Jude after leaving Blue Bay Villa the night before.
He even drank until his stomach problems acted up.
Joshua always knew his limits. If it was really just socializing, he would not have drunk until that way.
Therefore...
Nigel speculated while bending his fingers that Joshua and his Mommy must have had a conflict the night before.
Also, both of them were very upset after the argument.
Although Luna cried when she returned home, after h e clumsily tried to cheer her up, Luna returned to her bedroom and went to bed.
She even radiantly went to work that morning.
Joshua, on the other hand...
After leaving Blue Bay Villa that night, he must have gone drinking.
He must have drunk so much that he lost his mind.
Upon that thought, Nigel suddenly remembered his reason for calling Joshua.
"Then, Uncle Jude, after Joshua got drunk last night, did he do anything shocking? For example, buying the entire few cities worth of roses to give to my Mommy o r something like that..."
Jude, on the other end of the call, instantly tensed up.
"What do you mean?"
Nigel did not feel like he needed to hide from Jude.
