Chapter 2271
Joshua furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing Rosalyn’s words, then added impassively, “Don’t send any more of your men to go after Christopher. I’ll take care of this.
“As for June and Harvey, you’ll have to help us take care and comfort them as best as you can. Luna and I are on our way to the church right now. Don’t worry; we’ll take it from here.”
Then, he hung up the phone.
“I’ve managed to track down the taxi Uncle Christopher is in,” Nigel declared calmly as soon as Joshua put the phone down.
“The car is only two blocks away from the church, and judging by the distance, he’ll probably arrive in ten minutes.
“I’ve gotten in touch with the church, and according to them, all of the wedding guests are already seated. Uncle Jim has just gotten his hands on the marriage certificate and is preparing for the ceremony backstage.”
All of a sudden, Neil, who had been watching the wedding live stream on his screen, piped up, “By the time Uncle Christopher arrives in ten minutes, it’ll be the most crucial and most anticipated moment of the wedding, but he’s currently mentally unstable, which means he’s highly likely to commit violence.”
Neil lifted his head to stare intently at Luna and Joshua.
“If he enters the church during this time, he might accidentally hurt the wedding guests, but not only that…”
Nellie, on the other hand, stroked her chin in contemplation and finished her brother’s sentence, “All the guests attending Uncle Jim and Aunt Bonnie’s wedding today are among the most elite members of society, and if Uncle Christopher is to hurt them, it’ll bring a lot of trouble.”
Nigel was the one to conclude their observations.
“Daddy, what you have to do right now is stop Uncle Christopher before he enters the church, but he’s now only two blocks away…”
He lifted his head to stare at his father and continued, “Daddy, how much time do you need to assemble your men and get to the church? I might be able to buy you some time.”
Nellie paused for a moment, then nodded. “Yes, I still do! Should I make a pot of that sound right now, Mommy?”
“Yes, you should.” Joshua nodded in affirmation.
“June is in shock right now, so she might not be able to make the soup for Christopher. Therefore, Nellie, you have to try your best to recreate the flavor that June made. It might be able to help calm Christopher.”
Nellie nodded earnestly.
With that, Joshua picked up his phone and strode out the door.
“Joshua!” Luna frowned and stormed forward to stop him, seeing that he was about to leave.
