Chapter 2957
Joshua instinctively rubbed his brows in frustration when he heard this." Well, the truth is, none of you needed to
come."
Since Jacqueline was dead, there was no longer any plaintiff in Luna's hearing. Not only that, but all the surveillance
tapes of that night were seized by the police as evidence, and the fact that everyone at the wedding that day could
vouch that Jacqueline provoked Luna to the extent that she lost control...
This meant that Luna would not suffer too badly, even if she had to face judicial prosecution in the end.
After all, she did this for her best friend, whom she held dear to her heart.
"Needn't come?" Jim scoffed at this. "If we don’t come now, when are we supposed to see her? After she starts
serving time in prison?
"This is absolutely outrageous, Joshua Lynch! Not only did you fail to protect Luna, but now that she's in jail, you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇteven dare tell us not to come visit her!
"Did you intend to continue hiding this from us? We wouldn't even have known about this if I hadn't discovered it by
accident!"
Joshua furrowed his brows when he heard the rage in Jim's tone. Then, he replied calmly, "Yes, that was what I
intended to do."
Luna was only going to spend a few months in prison at most, and it would not be too difficult to hide this from the
Landry family for the time being.
Jim was utterly infuriated to hear this. "Joshua Lynch!"
"When are you arriving?" Joshua lowered his head to glance at the time, not in the mood to continue arguing with
Jim. "Do you need me to pick you up at the airport?"
"What do you think?" Jim scoffed. "Even though I’ve been to Banyan City plenty of times, this is still my parents' first
time ever stepping foot in this place. As the host, shouldn't welcoming your guests be part of your manners? If you
don't agree with me, don't come, then!"
With that, Jim hung up the phone.
Joshua curled his lips into a small smile when he heard the dial tone, then turned and got into his car. "To the
airport."
Three hours later, a private plane arriving from Merchant City landed at the airport.
Jim strode out of the airport arrival hall, one hand holding onto Bonnie and the other Harvey. Charles followed
closely behind, wheeling Rosalyn along in her wheelchair.
Behind them was the Landry family's new butler, a young woman wheeling Shelly's stroller while clutching Nellie's
hand tightly.
Even as she pushed the stroller along, she kept turning her head back to glance at Nigel and Neil, who were
dragging their own suitcases. "Please keep up, young masters!"
Joshua could not help chuckling when he caught sight of the impressive crowd that had flown in from Merchant City.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe approached them and asked in a rather amused tone, "Did you have to bring everyone?"
Almost all of Luna's closest friends and family in Merchant City were here.
Jim rolled his eyes. "Considering that you and Luna decided to move back to Banyan City, and after what happened,
I guessed you wouldn't be able to leave this place as soon as you'd like. Did you really expect my parents, Bonnie,
and I to keep on looking after your children for you? Did you honestly think we have no lives of our own? So what's
wrong with bringing all four of your children here?
"And besides, neither of my parents had ever been to Banyan City, yet both their son and daughter-in-law are from
here. Is it wrong of me to bring them here, considering what happened to Luna too?"
With that, he glanced at the little boy next to him and added, "And since everyone has come, I can't possibly leave
Harvey alone at home, can I?"
Joshua was amused by this. "I guess everyone has a reason to be here."
He glanced at Charles and Rosalyn and smiled at them. "Hello, Charles, Rosalyn."
Charles scoffed and turned away, ignoring him entirely.
Rosalyn, on the other hand, gave him a small smile back and pointed at the stroller behind her. "Go check on little
Shelly. It's bad enough that you missed out on Nigel, Neil, and Nellie's childhood. You cant continue missing out on
hers."
