Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1001

Luna turned to look at Fiona, then she smiled elegantly.

“It's good that children have their own opinions. Whether my daughter is going against me or not, you don't have to worry, Ms. Blake.“ Luna said while sizing Fiona up, “If you have the time to stir up trouble with me, you should use it to take care of your own health. I hear you have a terminal illness and less than a year to live?“

Luna waved her fingers, pretending to be earnest. “

Too bad. If you and Joshua don't hurry up, you might not even be able to bear a child before you die.“

Fiona's face instantly turned miserably pale. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Luna coldly. She wanted to say something else when Granny Lynch in the distance stopped in her tracks and swept Fiona a cold glance.

“Didn't you say you want to show us your cooking skills? It's late. Shouldn't you start already?“

Fiona pursed her lips. She was forced to swallow the words that she wanted to retort to Luna a moment ago. She took a deep breath, reached out to hold Luna's hand, and entered the manor.

Fiona smiled and said, “Ms. Luna, shall we make a good meal for Nigel and Nellie tonight? Joshua said he's looking for a medical team to cure your illness. I don't know when you will be fully diagnosed, so Nigel and Nellie have to stay here throughout this period. I want to do something nice for the kids too, to make them a good meal. Why don't you use this chance tonight to teach me?“

Upon hearing what Fiona said, Granny Lynch in the distance swept her a cold glance. “Luna is a guest tonight! What nonsense is this, getting the guest to cook their own meals?

“If you know how to cook, you do it yourself. If you can't, then just don't claim that you want to make a meal yourself, as if you know how to.“

Fiona's face turned a little pale at Granny Lynch's words. She bit her lips. Tears started forming in her eyes.

“Granny, I've already said before that I want to learn how to make the children's favorite dishes from Luna. How could you question my good intentions like that?“

Granny Lynch sneered. She wanted to say something else but she was interrupted by Joshua.

“Granny, Fiona is just trying to be nice, let her be.“

Then, Joshua glanced at Luna. “If you're willing to do it, can you help Fiona out in the kitchen? I'm sure the children would want to eat something made by you. You can teach Fiona too. It'll be great.“

Luna smiled. “If you say so, Mr. Lynch. I'll agree to it reluctantly.“

Then, she headed to the kitchen. Luna knew she had to enter the kitchen that night. If not, how could Fiona's act continue?

Seeing Luna finally entering the kitchen, Fiona let out a sigh of relief inconspicuously. She turned to look at Joshua gratefully.

“Thank you, Joshua. I...I will learn from Luna the best I can!"

Then, she placed the cup of herbal tea, which she did not even take a sip at the entrance, and strode into the kitchen too.

What Fiona did not expect was when she entered the kitchen, Luna was fiddling with a handphone stand. Luna placed the handphone stand in the corner, set her phone up, and turned on the camera.

“Ms. Blake, let's start." Fiona's eyes widened. “You..."

Luna turned to look at her and smiled brightly. “Ms. Blake, don't you want to learn how to make a few of the children's favorite dishes?"

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1002

“I'm not trying to look down on you. I just think, even a person with a good memory won't be able to remember all the important points at once. Also, I'm not willing to teach you the second time, Ms. Blake. I placed the phone here to record the process down so that you can refer to it in the future.“

Fiona was stunned. Luna's reason was irrefutable at that moment. She bit her lips, her expressions were rather ugly. “Y-You're...right. We should record it.“

Then, she turned around and started washing the vegetables. In an angle where Luna could not see her, Fiona's eyes turned resentful.

Luna, that hag! How did she know to place a camera in the kitchen!

The thing Fiona wanted to do that night was to drug Granny Lynch and place the blame all on Luna!

However, with the phone taking a video there, she could not do it anymore!

At that thought, Fiona secretly sneaked a glance at the phone. Luna picked a strategic spot. The phone was facing a mirror. Thus, whether she was facing the camera or her back facing the camera, every action they made would be captured clearly!

Fiona gritted her teeth hard. Did Luna know what she was about to do, that was why she set up the camera on purpose?

“Ms. Blake?“

Luna's voice instantly pulled Fiona back to reality. She came to her senses. Luna had already started getting to work in front of her.

“Let me tell you briefly. Nigel likes it light, so you have to use less oil and salt. Nellie has a rather sweet tooth, so you have to make her sweeter foods, but you can't make them too sweet. You have to care for their teeth...“

Fiona was listening to Luna distractedly. She annoyingly glanced at the camera with the corner of her eyes.

What a nuisance!

When Luna finished, Fiona pursed her lips and looked at Luna. “By the way, Luna, Granny Lynch said that she wanted Grilled Cajun Shrimps for tonight. I'm a little allergic to seafood. I can't touch the shrimps. Can...can  you make  this dish for me?“

Luna paused a little, then she laughed and replied, “Sure.“

She said while taking the ingredients out for the shrimp dish. “I'll prepare Granny Lynch's dish first, then I '11 teach you how to make Nigel's and Nellie's.“

Fiona immediately nodded. “Great! “

Soon, Luna finished the Grilled Cajun Shrimp in front of Luna.

When she finished, Luna rummaged through the fridge and furrowed her brows.

“I want to make some skinny orange chicken for Nellie, but it seems we're out of orange,“ Luna took a deep breath and said, “on the way here, I remembered that there was a fruit stall by the roadside not far away. I'll go get some.“

Luna took off her apron and hung it by the door. She turned to head out. “Ms. Blake, you can make the dishes that you're good at first. I'll come back and teach you the rest.“

Then, Luna strode away.

The kitchen was quiet. The living area was quiet too. Nellie has already gotten Granny Lynch upstairs.

Nigel was nowhere to be seen too. Fiona narrowed her eyes and sneered.

Even the universe was creating an opportunity for her to execute her plan for that night!

At that thought, she immediately walked over to the corner where the phone was placed. She stopped the recording and secretly took the packet of powder she obtained at the beach the night before. She evenly sprinkled it on the dish.

Upstairs in his study, Nigel was munching on some snacks while looking at Fiona drugging the dish. He shook his head helplessly.

Fiona was extremely stupid. Luna's intention of creating the opportunity for Fiona was so obvious, yet Fiona was so stupid that she could not even see it!

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1003

After buying fruits, Luna was not anxious to go back. She walked leisurely on the road with her things. She even took the chance to call Samson, giving him some guidance.

In the end, she received the news from Nigel, making sure that Fiona did what she wanted to do in the kitchen, then only she slowly made her way back.

“Luna, you've been gone for so long.“ The moment Luna returned to Orchard Manor, Fiona came out from the kitchen with an apron in her hand. She smiled brightly. “I almost got Joshua to head out to look for you. I thought you got lost! “

Luna smiled calmly. “I had a phone call on the way back, so I walked slower.“ Luna accepted the apron from Fiona. She put it on while entering the kitchen.

The kitchen was left in the same state when Luna left. Even the camera that was used for recording was still silently laying there.

Luna glanced at the Grilled Cajun Shrimp in the distance she did previously. She sneered. Perhaps Fiona had already finished doing what she wanted to do. When Luna came back, Fiona was exceptionally passionate about cooking.

Although her skills were not too great, she had a positive attitude, and she did not cause Luna any trouble.

Soon, a feast was made and served on the table.

“Let's eat! “ When the last dish was placed on the dining table, Fiona excitedly yelled upstairs.

On the surface, Fiona was excited about the good meal. However, Luna knew better. Fiona was excited because she was about to see the results of her work, Granny Lynch being poisoned and sent to the intensive care unit. The main culprit for Granny Lynch being poisoned was the Grilled Cajun Shrimp that Luna made.

Fiona, on the other hand, would easily avoid being a suspect due to her so-called terrible allergies to shrimp. By then, Luna would be the culprit of poisoning Granny Lynch.

She could kill two birds with one stone, how could Fiona not be happy?

However, Fiona did not expect...

The moment Granny Lynch sat down, she saw the Grilled Cajun Shrimp and furrowed her brows.

“Who made this?“

Fiona smiled. “Granny, didn't you say you wanted Grilled Cajun Shrimp this afternoon? I'm allergic to seafood. I can't even touch them. My body will get extremely uncomfortable when I go near them, so I can't make them. I got Luna to make them for you. Try and see if you like them?“

Granny Lynch glared at Fiona coldly, then swept Luna a glance. Her expressions were filled with displeasure.

“What do you mean whether I like them or not? I'm allergic to peanuts. There are so many crushed peanuts in them. Are you trying to get me killed?“ The entire atmosphere at the dining table turned awkward.

Fiona's eyes widened in disbelief. “Granny, you're... allergic to peanuts?“

Then, she looked at the Grilled Cajun Shrimp on the dining table.

Other than shrimps, there were a huge amount of crushed peanuts. The ratio was as much as the shrimp!

Seeing Granny Lynch infuriated, Joshua calmly furrowed his brows and looked at Luna.

Luna pursed her lips and imitated Fiona, pretending to be innocent. “I don't know Granny Lynch is allergic to peanuts. I only thought it would give a better texture by adding peanuts to this dish.“

Joshua looked at Luna and smiled coldly. “You don't know ”

Back then, when he was still with Luna, to please Granny Lynch, Luna had Granny Lynch's likes and dislikes memorized like the back of her hand.

Luna knew better than anyone that Granny Lynch was allergic to peanuts, yet at that moment, she pretended to be innocent, saying that she did not know?

“I don't know.“ Luna shrugged. “Maybe I once knew, but I might have forgotten about it.“

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1004

“My memory is not that great. Plus, I haven't seen Granny Lynch for such a long time.“

Then, Luna sighed helplessly. She swapped the Grilled Cajun Shrimp with the dish in front of Fiona. “Granny, here, try this instead. This tastes good too. I made them especially for you.“

Granny Lynch's expressions relaxed a little. “Let's eat, let's eat. I'm starving! “

Seeing that Joshua was still staring at Luna with a darkened expression, Nellie immediately smiled and placed some food on Joshua's dish.

“Daddy, try the Skinny Orange Chicken Mommy did. It's really sweet and delicious! “

Joshua furrowed his brows and laughed a little. “

Sure.“

Fiona, by the side, looked at the scene in front of her. Her eyes turned even colder.

Nellie called Joshua Daddy and Luna Mommy. She even stressed those words. She was clearly trying to assert Luna's dominance!

Both Joshua and Luna, one of them was Daddy, the other was Mommy. Fiona, on the other hand, was the outsider!

At that thought, her already annoyed mood was even worse.

The Grilled Cajun Shrimp was quietly laying in front of her. No one touched it at all. What should she do? She had planned thoroughly, but never had she thought that Granny Lynch would be allergic to peanuts, nor did she think Luna would put so many peanuts in that dish!

“What are you thinking about?“

Suddenly, Joshua's voice pulled Fiona back. He gracefully placed some food in her dish and said calmly, “Didn't you say that you have an important announcement to make tonight during dinner?“

Fiona shuddered violently! Joshua was reminding her to apologize to Luna! However, she only said she wanted to apologize to Luna as an excuse to get Luna over. She did not want to apologize to a b*tch like Luna.

Never!

Looking at how reluctant Fiona looked, Nigel and Nellie looked at each other. The both of them secretly laughed.

“What is she going to announce?“ Granny Lynch harrumphed coldly and swept Fiona a cold glance. “ What good could come out of her mouth?“

“Granny, don't say that about Fiona.“ Then, he turned to look at Fiona gently. “When are you planning to announce?“

Fiona secretly clenched her fists tightly by her side.

Although she was clear that Joshua only agreed to help get Luna over for dinner because she said she was going to apologize to Luna.

However, at that moment, looking at how anxious Joshua wanted her to apologize to Luna, Fiona felt terrible. Was Luna really that important in his eyes?

“Ouch! "

At that moment, Granny Lynch, who only had a few mouths full of food when she suddenly turned pale and immediately clutched her stomach. “It hurts!"

Nigel and Nellie looked at each other, then they immediately imitated Granny Lynch and clutched their stomachs.

“My tummy hurts! "

“It hurts! ”

At that instant, the three of them started wailing in pain.

Joshua's expressions instantly changed. He immediately picked up his phone. “Lucas, get the family doctor over! "

Fiona, by the side, was bewildered.

What...

She looked at the Grilled Cajun Shrimp which no one touched.

What was going on?

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1005

“Mr. Lynch, after the preliminary diagnosis, they are showing signs of being poisoned.“

When the family doctor came, he checked up on Granny Lynch and observed the two children. His conclusion was, “Even if they were not poisoned, they must have eaten food that produced toxins. Their symptoms were a reaction to food poisoning.“

Joshua furrowed his brows tightly.

Poisoned? Food that produced toxins? How did this happen?

Fiona and Luna made the meal together. Although Fiona was not great at cooking, Luna was a pro. How could such a thing happen?

“This is according to my diagnosis. I have already called an ambulance over, but it's the suburbs, so we might have to wait a while.“

Then, the doctor looked at the feast on the dining table. “Were you having dinner just now?“

Joshua nodded. “Yes.“

“Then, let me use the time to check the food on the table.“

The doctor sighed and took the first aid kit next to the table. “It would be best if I could find out what the poison was.“

Fiona's eyes instantly widened upon the doctor's words.

He was going to check the food on the table? Fiona bit her lips and immediately walked over. She wanted to take the Grilled Cajun Shrimp away.

She barely touched that dish when she was stopped by the doctors.

He furrowed his brows. “Ms. Blake, what are you trying to do?“

Fiona suppressed the frantic in her heart. She smiled and said, “You're going to check the food on the table to find out why Granny Lynch's tummy hurt. No one touched this dish at all. I 'm taking it away to lighten your load.“

Luna, who had been massaging Nellie's tummy by the side, flatly looked at her. “Ms. Blake, how thoughtful of you. Those who know you might see that you're thoughtful and caring, helping the doctor lighten his workload. Those that don't know any better would think that you have done something to the dish and you're afraid that people might find out, so you're destroying the evidence.“

Fiona's face instantly turned pale upon Luna's words. She pursed her lips. “Luna, what nonsense are you going about?“

After a moment of hesitation, Fiona placed the dish back on the table. Then, she crossed her arms and harrumphed coldly at Luna.

“I 'm allergic to shrimp. You were the one that made this dish from beginning to end. Even if it was drugged, you were the one who did it!“

Upon her words, the doctor has already started checking on the shrimp. He took a small sample of the Grilled Cajun Shrimp and placed it into his testing machine. The machine beeped crazily.

The loud alarm seemed to have rang through the entire Orchard Manor.

After the piercing alarm stopped, a name appeared on the machine.

The doctor immediately had a look. At that instant, his eyes widened.

“This is...“

Then, he immediately picked up the phone. “How long is the ambulance going to take? Faster! “

The moment he hung up, he turned to look at Joshua.

“Mr. Lynch, someone indeed drugged this dish. The Grilled Cajun Shrimp has been poisoned. Also, the poison is specifically for old people. The poison has not much effect on younger people and children.

They might not even be poisoned.

“Those lightly poisoned would be bedridden for a few years. The serious ones would die immediately.“

The entire manor was silenced upon the doctor's words.

Joshua's expressions darkened immediately. That meant that the poison was targeting Granny Lynch!

“My God.“ Fiona covered her mouth in shock. She pretended to be in disbelief.

“Luna, how could you poison Granny Lynch? Although you did say that Granny was mean to you previously in the kitchen...“

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1006

“But all this while, Granny had been telling me that you're a good person. She said that know how to take good care of others! How could you...poisoned Granny Lynch! “

Joshua frowned hard at Fiona's words. He swept Luna a cold glance. “You're the one that made this dish, right?“

Luna sneered, “It was me.“

Joshua closed his eyes. He secretly clenched his fist.

“Fiona's right. Although Granny did not used to like you, throughout this time, she had always been thinking  about  the good you do! How could you... “

Before Joshua could finish his sentence, the ambulance arrived. Granny Lynch, Nigel, and Nellie were placed into the ambulance. Joshua was worried so he planned to follow them to the hospital.

“I'll come along.“ Fiona worriedly bit her lips. Tears kept falling. “Granny Lynch is already so old. She must be extremely uncomfortable.“

Then, she could not help but look at Luna. “How could you be so cruel?“

Although Fiona did not know why Granny Lynch would be in pain even though she did not eat that dish, she knew that this was a great opportunity!

Although the process was different, the results were the same. Granny Lynch was admitted to the hospital, Luna taking the blame. This was her purpose that night!

“Yes, I don't know how she could be so cruel.“ Joshua picked his coat up. He put on his coat while looking at Luna coldly. “A person who used to be gentle and kind hearted. I don't know when she became so cruel and nasty.“

Luna sneered.

She calmly looked at Joshua. “Joshua, the results are not out yet, why do you have to side with Fiona, so eagerly trying to place the blame of poisoning on me?“

Joshua harrumphed coldly, “If it's not you, could it be Fiona? She would not do such things! Also, the test results have come out. The problem lies with the Grilled Cajun Shrimp! Fiona did not touch that dish because she's allergic to them! Are you still trying to deny it?“

Then, Joshua immediately threw his coat at Luna. “ Put on your coat. Follow us to the hospital! If anything happens to Granny Lynch, you're the one to blame! “

Luna sneered. She put on her coat and followed them out the door.

“It's cold.“ The moment they stepped out, Fiona shivered. Joshua hesitated a little before hugging Fiona in his arms. “It is quite cold tonight.“

Luna was walking behind them. Looking at Joshua and Fiona, she was disheartened. She secretly hugged her coat tighter.

Joshua's words a moment ago rang in her ears.

“If it's not you, could it be Fiona? She would not do such things! "

Luna sneered. Joshua trusted Fiona so much, yet he did not trust her at all.

“Mr. Lynch, the results are out. It was just a scare. Although the dish on the table was drugged, Granny Lynch was not poisoned. She only had some... laxatives."

Joshua raised his eyebrows. “Laxatives?"

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1007

“Yes.“

Facing Joshua's stunned expressions, the doctor cleared his throat. “Granny Lynch has been taken to the toilet with the help of the nurses. Although it

was laxative, she had been constipated recently. I guess it's a blessing in disguise.

“As for Nigel and Nellie, they did not consume any laxatives. Perhaps they consumed cold things during the afternoon which caused them to have a tummy ache. I've already prescribed them some medicine. “

The doctor sighed, “But, Mr. Lynch, although it's only a scare, the food at home has truly been poisoned. You have to carefully investigate this matter.

“Also, Granny Lynch can't consume too many drugs like laxatives.“

Then, the doctor closed his file, turned, and left.

Joshua furrowed his brows while looking at the doctor leaving. After a while, he turned around. Behind him, Fiona was sitting on the bench with teary eyes. She sobbed while wiping her tears away.

“Thank goodness, thank goodness that Granny Lynch only had laxatives. If she ate the dish that Luna poisoned, the consequences  would be dire... “

Luna was leaning against the wall opposite her, playing on her phone leisurely.

Occasionally, she would play a voice message on her phone. Joshua would recognize from the tone that it was Christian from the voice message. He furrowed his brows tightly.

It was at such a serious moment, yet Luna still had the mood to chat with Christian!

Not only Granny Lynch was sent to the emergency room, but also her two kids! Luna kept saying that she had no mental illness. She kept saying that she loved her children.

Was that how she showed her love?

Joshua stared at Luna for a very long time. It was until Luna finished chatting with Christian only then did she notice Joshua staring at her.

She kept her phone and looked at Joshua calmly. “Mr. Lynch, is there anything?“

Joshua narrowed his eyes fiercely. He forced the words out of his mouth. “The laxatives. Was it you?“

How would they have laxatives at home out of nowhere? Also, when he sent his men to follow Luna back home the night before, they said that she stopped by the pharmacy on her way home.

It was hard for Joshua to not link the poisoned Grilled Cajun Shrimp with the laxatives Granny Lynch consumed with Luna.

Luna paused for a while. In the end, she shrugged. “ The laxatives? Yes, I did it.“

Joshua's pupils dilated upon her words! Luna actually openly admitted to it? He was infuriated. He immediately rushed forward and clasped her chin.

“Do you know how old Granny Lynch is? You drugged her so heavily. Are you trying to kill her? Since when has Granny Lynch offended you?"

Joshua admitted. When Luna just came back to the country, Granny Lynch had indeed gone up against Luna because of Aura and Alice.

However, later one, when he explained to Granny Lynch how hard it was for Luna to single -handedly raise such great children, Granny Lynch's impression of Luna changed too.

Even at that moment, Granny Lynch despised Fiona because, in her mind, Luna was far greater!

However, Luna would dare to viciously drug an elderly who only thought well of her!

It was poison as well as laxatives!

What was she trying to do? Was she heartless?

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1008

Joshua could not understand why Luna wanted to go up against such an old person!

“Maybe...it was not Granny Lynch who offended Ms. Luna, it was me.“

Just when Joshua was clutching Luna's neck questioning her, Fiona, who had been sitting on the chair in the distance, wiped her tears and stood up.

Tears were still in her eyes. She sobbed and looked at Joshua and Luna. “Ms. Luna must have known that Granny Lynch and I did not see eye to eye, so she tried to hurt Granny Lynch and framed it on me.“

Fiona cried until her eyes were reddened. “After all, in the entire Orchard Manor, only I would have the motive to hurt Granny...“ The more Fiona spoke the more aggrieved she was. She sobbed until her entire body started twitching.

Luna was being pinned against the wall by Joshua. She could not help but smile.

“Ms. Blake, your act of accusing me is done to perfection. Such great acting skills. It's a pity you're not in the entertainment industry! “

“Luna! “ Joshua's expressions darkened instantly. “ What nonsense are you spewing?“

“I'm spewing nonsense?“ Luna smiled and looked at Joshua coldly. “Mr. Lynch, you're darling Ms. Blake is the one spewing nonsense.“

Luna met Joshua's gaze fearlessly. Her tone was much colder than her gaze.

“Ms. Blake said that I knew that only she in Orchard Manor would have the motive to harm Granny Lynch, so I deliberately drugged Granny Lynch to frame her.

“Let me ask the both of you. Do I look like an idiot to you? I know that Granny Lynch and Fiona do not see eye to eye. Why should I meddle in their affairs? I hate Fiona so much, why don't I use Granny Lynch's help to go up against Fiona more?“

The entire corridor was silenced upon Luna's words.

Joshua furrowed his brows. His clutched on Luna relaxed a little. Luna took the opportunity to pry his hands away. Then she walked a few steps toward Fiona aloofly.

“If I wanted to screw with you, I would not have targeted Granny Lynch. I should just bad-mouth you in front of Granny Lynch, then please her well and proper. That way, you will live your days terribly.“

Fiona narrowed her eyes fiercely. A hint of resentment flashed across her eyes. However, on the surface, she still looked feeble and gentle. “But, Ms. Luna, don't you hate Granny Lynch too?

“Maybe perhaps to you, killing Granny Lynch would make you much happier than pleasing her?“

Luna laughed.

She did not reply to Fiona's question, on the contrary, she replied to Fiona's question with another question.

“Ms. Blake, tell me. If you were to poison Granny Lynch, would you place the poison in a dish that only you made?"

Fiona's face turned pale. “I..."

“At that time, only you and I were in the kitchen. You kept saying how you were allergic to the shrimp, so you can't touch them.

“Tell me, how stupid would I be to poison the shrimp?"

Joshua  furrowed  his brows  a little at  Luna's words.

After a while, he harrumphed coldly, “Since you said that you did not drug it, why did you admit to it?"

Luna smiled. “Mr. Lynch, I'm only admitting to the laxatives. Granny Lynch indeed drank the beverage that was laced with laxatives."

She said while looking at Fiona calmly, “That cup was meant for Ms. Blake."

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1009

The atmosphere in the corridor froze.

Joshua furrowed his brows and looked at Luna. His gaze was complicated.

He remembered that when they reached Orchard Manor that evening, Nellie insisted on letting Granny Lynch drink the lemon iced tea, which was made for Fiona because it has more words than herbal tea.

Thus...

The laxatives were laced in the beverage meant for Fiona?

Joshua was not only the one that was shocked. Fiona too. She bit her lips and glared at Luna. “So, from the beginning, you laced the beverage, wanting to give me diarrhea! “

Luna laughed. She turned to look at Fiona coldly. “ Why? Can't I? How many times have you schemed against me all this while, Ms. Blake?“

Luna crossed her arms around her chest. Her tone was arrogant. “Last night, My friend John got hurt because he stopped you from killing yourself. You did not even thank him, yet Mr. Lynch had the audacity to threaten us, saying if anything were to happen to you, he would not forgive us.

“Yet the next day, you invite me to your house for dinner. I was a little resentful and I thought that this would be a setup, so I made the first move. Can't I do

that?“

Then, Luna touched her own chin. “But, my plan backfired. I never thought that Nellie would drink the beverage meant for Fiona because of the name of the beverage. If not...“

Luna smiled a little. “The person stuck to the toilet bowl should be Ms. Blake instead.“

Luna widened her eyes. She was so furious she was trembling. She immediately buried herself in Joshua's arms.

“Joshua, look at Luna! How terrible she is! I invited her to our house with good intentions, planning to reconcile with her and not go up against each other in the future. Look at what happened...“

Fiona cried miserably in Joshua's arms, “Joshua, my health is not as great as Granny Lynch. You know this too. If I were to drink the beverage laced with laxatives, I might not live to see the day tomorrow. How terrifying. If Granny Lynch was not allergic to peanuts, she would have definitely eaten the poisoned dish of shrimps!

“If I were to drink the beverage laced with laxatives, I would be feeling terrible tonight too. Luna has planned to get rid of me and Granny Lynch in one meal...“

Fiona rambled and cried in Joshua's arms. Joshua's expressions gradually darkened.

“Luna, you have crossed the line.“

After a while, he sighed and picked up the phone. He called Lucas. “Go back to the Orchard Manor and take Granny Lynch's beverage over here."

Then, he thought for a while and added, “Bring the untouched cup of herbal tea here too."

“Yes, sir!"

When Joshua was about to hang up the call, Luna immediately reminded Lucas. “Also, bring the phone and phone stand at the corner of the kitchen over."

A hint of resentment arose in Fiona's eyes. As expected, Luna placed the phone there to monitor her!

However, Fiona smiled widely. Luna was indeed smart, but stupid as well. Since Fiona was planning to frame her for poisoning the food, how could she let Luna's phone record her doing that? Fiona has long deleted the videos.

She even deleted the original file on the phone.

Fiona did not believe that there could be any evidence left in that broken phone! At that thought, Fiona was even more smug.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1010

Fiona wanted to see what evidence Luna could produce when Lucas brought the phone over!

lo minutes later, Lucas rushed over with a few cups of beverages, the phone, and the phone stand.

Although Joshua only asked for two beverages, when he took them, he noticed that Nigel's and Nellie's beverages were not finished yet and it was placed together, so he simply took them together.

The doctor took the beverages to check upon them. In the end, he only brought the lemon iced tea out.

“Mr. Lynch, only this cup has been laced with laxatives. From the results, the ingredients were matched with the ones Granny Lynch consumed.

“As for the other three cups, there is nothing. Especially in the herbal tea. Not only has it not been drugged, but it was also added with many vitamins good for the elderly.“

Then, the doctor stuffed the results in Joshua's hand, turned, and left.

Clutching the results, Joshua furrowed his brows a little.

Fiona went over to have a look. Then she loudly reprimanded Luna, “Great, how dare you laced my drink with laxatives! Luna, laxatives will almost kill me! How vicious of you! “

Fiona yelled while placing the blame for the poisoned Grilled Cajun Shrimp on Luna.

“She laced my beverage with laxatives while poisoning Granny Lynch! She's terrible! “

“Luna.“

Suddenly, Joshua, who was behind Fiona, looked at Luna coldly. “What's going on with the shrimp?“

If Luna was truly like what Fiona said, trying to harm Fiona with laxatives while killing Granny Lynch with poison, then why did she add all those healthy vitamins that were good for the elderly into the herbal tea for Granny Lynch?

It was illogical.

Actually, during dinner, he was extremely suspicious. Luna knew that Granny Lynch was allergic to peanuts, yet she absurdly placed the peanuts in such a conspicuous place. The peanuts were as much as the shrimp.

It was as if she was afraid no one could see them. “Mr. Lynch, what do you think?“

Luna smiled and waved the phone in her hands. “The answers you want are all in this phone.“

Joshua furrowed his brows and gave Luna a look. He signaled at her to turn on her phone.

Fiona noticed how confident Luna looked. She could not help but secretly sneer at her.

Fiona has long deleted those videos on the phone that would look bad on her! She wanted to see what tricks Luna had up her sleeves!

However, the next second, her face suddenly turned pale.

Because the video Luna played was of her smiling smugly picking the phone up deleting the video!

Fiona's face turned pale.

This...

Impossible!

Luna smiled and continued rewinding the video to the point before Fiona deleted the video.

In the video, Fiona, who kept emphasizing being allergic to shrimps, not only picked up the shrimps with her utensils and had a taste, she even took out a small packet of medication from her pocket and placed them into the Grilled Cajun Shrimp!

Then, she smiled and placed the dish back to its original place, then turned around to delete the video.

The atmosphere in the entire corridor was so heavy it made one's heart palpitate.

Fiona clenched her fists tightly.

“Joshua..." Fiona said with a hoarse voice, “l-let me... let me explain."
