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

“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.
Charlotte was taken away right under their noses, and the person who kidnapped her could
very well be Sirius. Regardless, the people who took her away were the Quinn family.
This pointed toward one possibility: Sirius was probably involved with the Quinn family.
However, Luna had been rescued by Malcolm ever since her accident six years ago.
She had been close with the Quinn family in the next six years of her recovery and subsequent childbirth, so much
so that at one point, she had almost become their daughter-in-law.
However, she had never even heard of the name ‘Sirius’ before, much less met him in real life.
On the other hand, she was more than familiar with the name Quentin since she had heard Granny Quinn bring up
this adopted son of hers many times.
According to what Luna had heard, Quentin had been forced to leave Merchant City after committing an
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmunforgivable mistake years ago. It was only after both Malcolm and Hunter had gotten in trouble that he was
allowed to return.
“Don’t you think that Quentin and Charlotte’s returns seem a little coincidental?” Joshua hinted.
A lightbulb went off in Luna’s head.
Joshua was right! Charlotte and Quentin had returned to Merchant City at almost the same time!
With the two of them found to be involved, it would mean that…
· Luna lifted her head to stare dazedly at Joshua. “If Quentin and Sirius are, in fact, the same
person, everything would make sense.”
However…
They knew for a fact that Quentin and Sirius were two different people, not because of their names, but because…
Quentin and Sirius had appeared together in the past…
