Chapter 1873 This low, familiar voice made both Christopher and Bonnie raise their heads. The
person who had stopped Christopher from shutting the door was Lucas. As for the man who had
spoken, it was none other than Joshua, who stood afar, watching them. He was holding a cigarette
between his teeth as he leaned against the lamp post elegantly. He stared impassively at Christopher
and said, “That’s not the way to win over a woman’s heart.” With that, he glanced at a pale-faced
Bonnie and asked, “Do you want to go with him or come with me?” Bonnie bit her lip. She first glanced
at Christopher, then at Lucas, who was blocking the door. A split second later, she pushed the door
open, got out of the car, and walked slowly in Joshua’s direction, clutching her belly with her injured
hand. Christopher furrowed his brows and immediately reached out to grab her arm. However, as soon

has already made her choice, you shouldn’t force her anymore.” With that, he restrained Christopher’s
arms at his sides and finally released him only after Bonnie had gotten into Joshua’s car. Even though
Christopher was stronger than Bonnie, as a well-read scholar who spent most of his time immersed in
books, he was still no match for a trained man like Lucas. Therefore, with his hands strapped by his
sides, there was nothing he could do as he watched Bonnie get into Joshua’s car. After the door
slammed shut behind her, he lifted his head to glare at Joshua. “What happens between Bonnie and
me should stay that way!” Joshua sneered, then put out his cigarette elegantly. “Previously, I didn’t
really believe Jim when he told m e you had never dated anyone before and that June was your
adopted child, but now, I change my mind. UVY “If using violence will change a woman’s mind and
make her want to get together with you, then me and Luna, as well as Gwen and Luke, would have
lived happily ever after and have grandchildren by now.” With that, he strode back toward his car as he
said, “Go back home and reflect on your actions, Christopher. “Let’s go, Lucas.” Under Joshua’s
orders, Lucas finally let go of Christopher and let out a sigh. “Dr. Christopher, I think you’d better…
reflect on your mistakes.” With that, he got into the black Masevati and started the car. Christopher
remained motionless and watched with a defeated look as the car pulled away. He…was still no match
for Bonnie in the end. No matter how hard he tried, he could not make Bonnie give him even a second
glance. Inside the black Masevati, Bonnie sat in the backseat. staring at her fractured right ring finger.
“Thank you, Joshua.” If he and Lucas had not appeared just in time, even if she managed to escape
being kidnapped by Christopher, she would lose a few more fingers during the process. Sitting in the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfront passenger seat, Joshua glanced impassively at her through the rearview mirror and said, “I have
a family doctor at my place. Do you want Lucas to turn around and bring you to the hospital, o r do you
want to come with me to my place?” ! Bonnie frowned, pondering this for a moment, before replying,
“I’d prefer going back to your place.” She did not want to return to the hospital anymore. When she and
Christopher had left, Jim was still there, and what if she bumped into him once more? Would he call her
a slut and accuse her of seducing Joshua, her best friend’s husband? Besides, Christopher had plenty
of friends working in the hospital, and maybe they would notify him if they bumped into her at the
hospital. She did not want to see Christopher anymore for the time being. Therefore, after weighing the
risks and benefits of her situation, she decided it would be better to follow Joshua back to his house.
After all, Theo and Luna both lived there, so it would not be inappropriate for her to visit. Joshua was
satisfied to hear this answer. He shifted into a more comfortable position in his chair and asked, “Did
you say you wanted to go to a mall just now?”
