Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1211

The rescue effort  continued  throughout  the night.

Because some of the underground access has been blocked by the explosion caused by the rocks, if they were to slowly move the huge rocks away, it would take time and effort. They were also afraid that Joshua and Lucas who were trapped underneath the ruins would not be able to hold on for much longer.

Therefore, in the end, under the advice of the experts, Luna and Jude got the rescue team to conduct directional blasting on the pathway blocked by rocks.

Directional blasting was not easy. They could not create too huge a vibration, yet they also need to be enough to clear up a path. They also could not get the rocks to fly everywhere, in case they hurt the people being stuck underneath the ruins.

Therefore, the entire night, all sorts of experts and rescue team members were seriously planning and executing them.

Jude, with bloodshot eyes, was there to oversee and coordinate everyone. Luna was extremely anxious, yet she could not do anything to help. She could only contact Bonnie, asking her whether she could help get a coffee truck over.

After Bonnie knew of the situation at the scene of the rescue, she immediately sent a few food trucks over.

Every time Luna saw people coming out from

underground, she would pass food, drinks, and coffee to them.

She also set up a few tents to let the exhausted rescue team members, who had been searching underground for a few hours, rest.

Luna and Jude did not shut their eyes for once the entire night. After a night's worth of effort, the passage underground was finally cleared.

The rescue team swarmed in to search and rescue. Luna and Jude sat next to each other, looking at the rescue team heading underground. They comforted each other.

“Joshua will be alright.“

“Yes, Joshua has not proposed to you nor given you a wedding yet. He won't die just like that.“

Luna was stunned. She suddenly did not know how to reply to Jude.

Jude sighed and looked at Luna calmly. “What, do you still not believe that you actually have a place in Joshua's heart?“

Jude looked into the distance, his gaze was dimmed. “ You always said that I like to help Joshua lie to you, but whether it was me or Joshua, we have never lied to you.

“Six years ago, when you met with the accident, Joshua was truly planning to acquire the most important international business deal, then return to Banyan City and confess to you. He was planning to propose to you and reorganize a wedding for you once more.

“At that time, he even told me that he thought he would never ever fall for a woman, but you're an exception. You defied his perception of a relationship.

“Do you remember back then you always wanted to bear Joshua a child? You went all around looking for alternatives, going to all the fertility clinics all around.

“But, that day Joshua told me, he said that he did not really care about children. He cares for you. He saw how much you had to suffer eating all those medications to get pregnant. He wanted to propose to you and give you a new wedding. He wanted to let you know that even without children, he won't leave you...“

Luna's fist clenched tightly by her side upon Jude's words. Tears fell silently. She tried her best to suppress her emotion, not letting herself cry out loud.

It was still unknown whether Joshua was dead or alive, yet it was at this moment she heard about how Joshua felt about her previously.

Looking at Jude's serious expression, Luna's heart ached terribly as if a knife was stabbing into her non- stop. She turned her face away, not letting Jude see her tears.

At that moment, a red Ferrare stopped behind Luna and Jude with a swoosh.

Bonnie came out of the car anxiously. “Luna, something bad has happened! “ Luna and Jude looked at each other. They immediately stood up. “What is it?"

“Michael Lynch! " Bonnie took a deep breath and took her phone out. “I'm guessing none of you  would have the time to see your phone! Michael is causing trouble again!"

Bonnie tapped the news on the phone. “Look!"

The phone screen was broadcasting the setting up of a memorial service.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1212

The headline wrote, (LIVE: The President of the Lynch Group, Joshua Lynch, Died in an Accident. Funeral in Preparation].

The subtitle wrote, (Second Young Master of the Lynch Family, Michael Lynch, Grief-Stricken.

Decides to Take Over the Lynch Group].

Looking at those two lines, Luna was so infuriated she almost passed out!

It was still unknown whether Joshua was alive or dead. Everyone was working as hard as they could to rescue them, yet Michael already went ahead and announced Joshua's death, even organizing a memorial service.

He was so grief-stricken that he wanted to take over the Lynch group? He should have just said that he wanted to quickly snatch over the Lynch group while it was still unknown whether Joshua was dead or alive!

After the live broadcast, Bonnie played Luna a few other pieces of news. Each of them was of Michael crying saying Joshua had died. Some of them even had Adrian's appearance.

Adrian was facing the camera in tears, crying, “ Joshua's health was not great previously. He had been unconscious for seven whole days before coming around. Now there is such a tragic accident. We can't even locate his body. As his father, I'm heartbroken!

“But, the Lynch group cannot survive a day without a president. If such a huge company falls because of Joshua's death, Joshua in heaven would not be pleased too! Therefore, I plan to bear through the pain and let my second son take over the Lynch group after Joshua's death. I will be there to guide him. We will expand the Lynch group business well as a consolation to Joshua in heaven.“

Looking at the video on the phone, Luna was so furious she gritted her teeth hard.

“Bloody hell! “ Jude, who was always well—

mannered, swore. He threw the things in his hands on the floor.

“That bloody Adrian Lynch! Trying to take advantage of Joshua's accident to benefit his second son! How despicable! “

Luna remained in the same spot. Her mind was buzzing so loud that she could no longer hear the outside world clearly.

Jude's yells and Bonnie's sighs seemed to be happening in the very far distance.

Luna gritted her teeth. She clenched her fists tightly by her side then relaxed them. Then, she clenched them again.

Jude had already blocked the news, yet Adrian still found out about it. However, why could he say such a thing even before Joshua was not dead yet?

Also, from the moment Joshua encountered the accident from the day before up to that point, Adrian had never come to the scene of the rescue once! Was

he truly Joshua's biological father? How could such a person exist on this earth?

Bonnie looked at Luna and Jude helplessly. One was in a daze, the other was breaking things.

After a long while, Bonnie took a deep breath. “Now is not the time to throw a tantrum.“

She looked at Luna and Jude closely. “There are two important things that need to be done right now.

One, get Joshua out. Whether he is dead or alive, we have to get him out quickly. If not, Adrian and Michael would successfully go on with the funeral!

“The other thing.“ Bonnie looked at Luna and Jude. “ We have to stop them from taking away the Lynch Group's assets. Whether Joshua is dead or alive. I'm sure he would be unwilling to let all of his fortunes fall into the hands of scumbags like Michael.“

Luna bit her lips. She raised her gaze and looked at Bonnie. “But...“

No one knew whether Joshua was alive or dead right now. Adrian was Joshua's biological father. Michael was Joshua's younger stepbrother with the same father.

She and Jude were only Joshua's friends.

If Joshua did not stop them, how could both of them, who are outsiders, stop them?

Jude was silent for a while. In the end, his eyes fell on Luna.

“You can stop them.“

Luna furrowed her brows. She was confused. “I 'm only his ex-wife. Our divorce has already been... ” ”He was never divorced from you.”

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1213

Luna was completely stunned.

Not only Luna, even Bonnie, next to her also widened her eyes in disbelief.

They have never been divorced?! What about Joshua previously getting engaged to Aura and being together with Alice, then becoming Fiona's boyfriend...

Was that him having an affair while being married?

Jude saw the confusion in both women's eyes. He took a deep breath and explained, “Luna, like I just said. Six years ago, Joshua only had you in his heart. After your accident, every thought that you had died, buried in the deep sea.

“Joshua might have believed it deep down, but he still refused to accept it, so he has never truly applied for a death certificate for you. He only reported you as missing. It is also because of this...your marriage has always remained.“

Jude sighed, “As for the incidents after that, Aura's engagement to him is because he wanted to take care of Aura according to your will, to get engaged with her. But, it's only an engagement. From the beginning, Aura had already said that they wouldn't get married. When Aura finally finds someone she likes, they would call off the engagement.

“Later on, Alice appeared. I 'm sure you know this as well. Alice had been using your identity. He had always thought that Alice was you, so there was no need to divorce.

“After Alice, to cure Nigel, he agreed to Fiona to be her boyfriend. In fact, he has never liked Fiona before. It would be even more impossible for him to get a divorce because of her.“

Jude fixed his gaze at Luna.

“If I remember correctly, your marriage certificate is still in the safe at the innermost part of Joshua's study room. The code to the safe is your marriage anniversary. As long as you retrieve your marriage certificate and rush to the memorial service, they won't be able to continue.“

Bonnie instantly understood what Jude meant. She immediately grabbed Luna's hand.

“Yes! If your marriage with Joshua has never been nullified, whether Joshua is dead or alive, you are entitled to half of his fortune! As long as you take the marriage certificate and stop Adrian and Michael as the legal wife of Joshua's, they would not be able to take away Joshua's fortune! “

Luna bit her lips and nodded. She always thought that Joshua would have gotten a death certificate for her and nullify their marriage after the announcement of her death.

However, she did not expect that he had not done so even after so many years.

He even put the marriage certificate in a safe at the innermost part of his study room, setting the code to the safe as...their marriage anniversary.

Was it because, subconsciously, Joshua was not willing to split up with her? At that thought, Luna's tears started falling once again. She wanted the rescue team to immediately rescue Joshua out right at that moment. She had to ask him in his face.

Who was she to him!

“Luna!"

Seeing how Luna was not responding, Bonnie furrowed her brows. “We don't have much time. We still need to get to Blue Bay Villa to get the marriage certificate."

Jude looked at Luna and said calmly, “It's okay if you don't want to do this. After all, these are only Joshua's assets. It has nothing to do with you. If you take the marriage certificate to the memorial service, it would affect you badly too. Since you had only gotten engaged to Michael a few days ago. By then you will be destroyed by the people on the internet..."

“I don't care."

Luna came to her senses. She took a deep breath, turned, and immediately left with Bonnie.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1214

Luna only took a few steps before turning around and looking at Jude. “If you can get Joshua out, get him to rush to the memorial service press conference at first notice. I don't want to deal with such a huge matter alone.“

Then, Luna strode away. Bonnie immediately followed suit. Both women got in the Ferrare and sped away.

Jude stood in the same spot, looking until the car became a tiny red dot. He could not help but feel emotional.

Even with all the pretensions on the surface, Luna could not hide the fact that she still cared for Joshua.

Just when Jude was lamenting, a cacophony of voices came from the entrance of the underground warehouse.

“We found them! We found them! “

The rescue team carried two men out from the ruins. Joshua was lying on the stretcher. He was covered in dust and dirt, but fortunately, he did not suffer any injuries. He had only been underground for quite a long time, so he was rather dehydrated and deprived of oxygen.

The rescue team members had already passed an oxygen tank to him. After violently taking in two deep breaths, Joshua let out a long sigh. Although his face was filled with haggardness, he still looked spirited.

Joshua put down the oxygen tank, took a few sips of water, and swept a glance at Jude.

“Why are your eyes red? Were you crying?“

Jude was delighted yet furious. He gently punched Joshua on the shoulder. “Yes, I was crying! I thought you were dead! “

“I won't die that easily.“

Joshua smiled with difficulty. “It was Neil who saved me.“

Jude raised his eyebrows. “Neil has lost his memories. He is already one of Aura's, yet he still could save you?“

“Hmm.“ Joshua laughed, “I was surprised too.“

Initially, Joshua was following the sounds of the voices, taking Lucas along to look for Nigel and Nellie. However, when they were near, they bumped into Neil.

Neil signaled at them to not make a noise. He brought them into a small, secluded room.

Because of the structure and position of the small room they were in, they did not suffer any injuries from the explosion of the underground warehouse. That was why Joshua and Lucas were considered unharmed.

“Every child of yours is a talent.“ Jude could not help but get emotional.

Joshua laughed. He turned around and scanned his surroundings. He did not see the person he wanted to see.

Noticing his gaze, Jude furrowed his brows. “She has gone back to the Blue Bay Villa. She went back to get your marriage certificate so that she could break up Adrian's press conference where he would pass the Lynch Group's assets to Michael."

Joshua furrowed his brows tightly. “Have they gone mad?"

Jude took a deep breath. He searched for the news and showed it to Joshua. “Have a look. They wanted to get this done before you were found. By then, if

you were dead, it would be great. If you survive, you won't be able to get it back."

Joshua's eyes narrowed a little. He looked at himself, covered in dust and dirt. His clothes were torn. Then, he looked at Jude's smart navy blue suit.

“Lend me your clothes."

Why?

“Luna doesn't need to go there. I'll go."

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1215

Bonnie's Ferrare was fast.

From the outskirts where the abandoned factory was to Blue Bay Villa, a journey that would usually take half an hour, Bonnie only needed less than fifteen minutes.

When they returned to the villa, Luna immediately got out of the car and crazily ran toward the study room.

Bonnie followed behind. Looking at Luna's anxious figure, she could not help but sigh helplessly. Ever since she knew Luna, she had heard Luna say countless times, such words like:

“I have not liked Joshua in a long time! “

“Joshua is the person I hate the most right now.“

“I will never like Joshua in my entire life.“

However, at that moment, when Joshua was in danger, Luna was more worried about him than anybody else. She was even willing to protect Joshua's hard work for many years. She was even willing to take the marriage certificate out, risking herself in the process.

It had to be mentioned. Even if Luna was forced into it, the news of Luna getting engaged to Michael had been spread everywhere. The entire city knew about Luna being engaged to Michael.

If Luna were to take the marriage certificate at that moment to cause trouble at the scene where Michael

was about to take over Joshua's fortune... The consequences would be unimaginable.

At that thought, Bonnie sighed. She did not believe that Luna had not thought of this. However, Luna still rushed upstairs without any hesitation to retrieve the marriage certificate.

“Aunty Bonnie.“

In the hall, Nellie got down from the sofa. She blinked her huge eyes at Bonnie and looked at her seriously.

“Have we found Daddy? Why did Mommy run upstairs in such a rush?“

Bonnie came to her senses. She lowered her head and hugged Nellie's small figure.

“Your Mommy...is trying her best to protect the family.“

When Luna rushed into the study, she quickly located the safe. To others, it might be extremely hard to locate Joshua's safe, but it was a piece of cake for her.

Six years ago, she had been cleaning his study daily with all her best efforts. She was even clearer than Joshua about where his things were.

For the past six years, everything in the study remained the same. Nothing had been moved.

When she located the safe, Luna took a deep breath. According to Jude, the code to the safe was their marriage anniversary. She keyed in the pin.

Click!

The door to the safe was opened.

In it were two red booklets and a few photos. There were even two jewelry boxes.

Luna paused for a while. She took all the things out o f the safe. The two red booklets were her marriage certificate with Joshua.

The photos were rare photos of them together. Back then, she would lean on him and smile sweetly.

The two jewelry boxes. One of them was a design she did when she was bored at home six years ago, before the accident. In the box was a ring with the first letter of their names engraved on the inside of the ring. J and L.

The other jewelry box was the one Joshua gave to her during her last birthday, but she threw it aside.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1216

It was the first work she did when she was abroad. She had always wanted to acquire it back, but she never succeeded.

Luna held onto the two jewelry boxes. Her heart broke.

She always thought that Joshua did not understand her. However, it seemed that no one understood her better than him.

Joshua knew what was the most important thing to her. The first design she ever sketched and the first jewelry she had made herself. He collected those for her, wanting to give them to her.

However, Luna has never received them before. She sniffled her nose and placed the photos and jewelry box back into the safe. With the marriage certificates in her hands, she immediately got up and headed downstairs.

Downstairs, Bonnie was comforting Nellie and Nigel.

“Your Daddy is a lucky guy. He will be found sooner or later. Your entire family is amazing! Didn't your Mommy get into danger six years ago? She overcame it! Your Daddy will do the same! “

Luna felt even more miserable upon hearing Bonnie's words. She sniffled her nose and headed downstairs.

“Bonnie, let's go.“

Bonnie came to her senses. She immediately headed out and got into her car.

When both of them rushed to the site of the press conference that Adrian and Michael were holding, the reporters had already taken their seats.

The press conference was decorated as a memorial service.

Adrian was sitting on the stage, crying into the microphone. He could occasionally force a few droplets of tears out.

“Joshua is my pride and my joy. The entire Lynch family is proud of him! He lost his mother when he was young. I'm an unqualified father. He was brought up by his grandmother. He took over the Lynch Group when he was seventeen. To get the Lynch Group to grow amidst tribulations, was not easy...

“Everyone says he is a genius, but only his true family members know how hard it was for him to have gained such achievements he had today. How hard it was to manage the Lynch Group into what it is today...“

The way Adrian was wiping his tears was as if a benevolent father had lost his son.

“It really hurts me knowing he had an accident, but even in heartbreak, I know that as his family, the only thing I could do after his accident is to get the leaderless Lynch Group to get back on its tracks as soon as possible.

“Therefore, as Joshua's father and his immediate family member, I want to take this opportunity to introduce my other son, Michael Lynch. Although

Michael did not grow up in the Lynch family, the blood of the Lynch family still flows in him. He is honest and genuine. I think it would be the best suit for him to take over Joshua's company.

“I believe that Michael would be like Joshua, expanding and fortifying the Lynch Group, finishing what Joshua set out to do when he was still alive, and expanding the Lynch Group's business internationally...“

Luna, who was by the entrance, clenched her fists tightly upon listening to Adrian's words.

Adrian's few drops of tears and the words coming out from his mouth lamenting about how he missed Joshua, it was extremely pretentious!

He barely lamented about Joshua for five minutes. The rest was talking about how he was going to let Michael inherit the Lynch Group.

In Adrian's eyes, it was not important whether Joshua lived or died. To get Michael to take over Joshua's fortunes was the most important thing.

“The dead can't be resurrected. I shall now announce, as the biological father of Joshua Lynch, I will transfer all of his assets when he was alive to Michael...“

“What right do you have to do that?“ Suddenly, a cold woman's voice interrupted Adrian.

The crowd immediately turned to look in the direction of the entrance.

Luna, who was in a dress covered in dirt, slowly entered.

“We still don't know whether Joshua is dead or alive. The rescue team is still trying their best, yet as Joshua's father, you dare announce Joshua's death?

“Do you really miss Joshua or are you afraid that the company would be in a mess? Or...you just want that useless illegitimate son of yours to quickly snatch Joshua's fortune?"

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1217

Adrian and Michael were stunned at Luna's appearance.

Why was she here? Was she not still at the site of the explosion waiting for Joshua to appear? How did she rush over here?

Michael furrowed his brows. He turned to look at Adrian next to him, asking for help.

Adrian narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Luna, how could you say such words? I'm only doing what's best for Joshua. Joshua himself would also care for the Lynch Group.

“You should know that a huge company like the Lynch Group would be in chaos if they don't have a new president within the hour! I 'm getting Michael to inherit everything from Joshua's to stabilize the Lynch Group. This is also to console Joshua in heaven! “

Then, Adrian looked at Luna in lament.

“Although you are Michael's fiancee, you are still an outsider. You have not married into the Lynch family yet. You don't understand how the Lynch family has to think of the big picture...

“Once you get married to Michael, l'll make sure Michael teaches you properly about what it means to think of the big picture and how to avoid conflict between personal feelings and the group's interest.“

The crowd started discussing among themselves upon Adrian's words. Most of them were praising Adrian for being thoughtful.

Hearing the voices of support, Adrian smiled at Luna calmly. Luna saw the provocation in his smile.

When he was talking a moment ago, he deliberately emphasized the word outsider.

Luna gritted her teeth. She had even predicted what was going to happen. If she were to continue stopping them, Adrian would still harp on the fact that she was an outsider. However, Luna could not care that much anymore!

She held onto the marriage certificates in her pocket tightly and slowly walked toward the stage.

“The Lynch Group would be in chaos if there is no president within an hour? Do I not understand the Lynch Group or do you not know the Lynch Group well enough, Master Lynch?“

Luna gracefully went up the stage. Her voice was still cold and arrogant without any emotions in it. “A mature company like the Lynch Group has long been able to operate on its own even without a president.

“Master Lynch, do you think those highly paid top- level managers that Joshua hired do nothing? Or do you think that the president has to do every single thing in the company himself?

“Do you know how huge the Lynch Group is? If Joshua were to decide every single thing in such a huge company. If the company would break down without Joshua's oversight within an hour...

“Then the Lynch Group would not be one of the top groups internationally right now. It would not even be the richest in Banyan City! “

Every word of Luna's was forceful and resounding.

The venue was instantly silenced. After a moment, the reporters below the stage could not help but lament.

“Yes, how could the Lynch Group not survive without a president.“

“Those top-level managers must be doing their work. If the company can't run without a president, it must be trash.“

“Even a small entertainment company like ours could run without our boss! “

“Since the Lynch Group is not in dire need of a president, the things that Master Lynch said...“

“Hey, don't you get it, usurping Joshua's position the moment he just died. It's such a classic act! “

“My God. There really are people like that who would do such things...“

The murmurs below the stage rang out. Adrian and Michael's expressions were rather ugly on stage.

After a while, Michael gritted his teeth and turned to look at Luna.

“Luna, what are you playing at?“

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1218

“I know you and I have our conflicts, but we are engaged. We can settle this at home. You don't have to cause trouble here at such a place, right?

“Furthermore, you are right. The Lynch Group would still be able to operate on its own even without a president, but...“

Michael paused for a while and narrowed his eyes, looking at Luna.

“The company can operate as usual, but those people that have been coveting the company and the rivals of the Lynch Group would surely start attacking the Lynch Group when it is left without its leader.

“The earlier I take over the Lynch Group, the earlier I would be able to familiarize myself with everything. That way I would be prepared when the others start attacking the Lynch Group. Why don't you understand our painstaking efforts?“

The reporters below the stage also came to a realization upon Michael's words. Turns out, Adrian and Michael were thinking about this!

A reporter sighed, “If that's the case... Luna's thinking is indeed a little too simple.“

Adrian was delighted. He immediately chimed in, following what the reporter said, “It's only normal that Luna is a little shortsighted. After all, she's only a woman. Also, she's here today to cause trouble just because of her conflicts with Michael. I 'm sure you all know that they are engaged. It's normal for them to fight. I never thought that she would be so improper, bringing a fight between couples to such a place! “

Then, Adrian coldly glared at Luna. “Why are you still standing there? Get off the stage! Stop embarrassing us! “

Luna narrowed her eyes. She bit her lips and strode to where Adrian was. She picked up the microphone. “ I ann not fighting with Michael, I also am not shortsighted. I only come here with one goal in mind.“

Luna took a deep breath and looked at the reporters below the stage.

“I 'm here to stop Adrian and Michael Lynch from taking away Joshua's fortune.“

The crowd was in an uproar upon hearing Luna's words.

“Was the woman mad? Was it not a good thing that her fiance inherited Joshua's billion-dollar fortune? Why did she want to stop them, just because she fought with Michael?“

Adrian, by the side, narrowed his eyes fiercely. “ What right do you have to stop us? Luna, do I need to remind you? You're currently only Michael's fiancee. You're not even part of the Lynch family yet. You're only an outsider!

“If you said you're a member of the Lynch Group, it's even more pathetic. You're only a jewelry designer. What right do you have?“

Luna took a deep breath. She held the microphone tightly in her hands. “Of course, my identity is not only a jewelry designer."

Luna reached into her pockets holding onto the marriage certificates. She let out a long breath. “My true identity is..."

“Her true identity is my trustee."

Suddenly, a cold and low man's voice rang out from the entrance of the venue.

That voice!

Luna's eyes widened and looked at the entrance. She saw Joshua in a navy blue suit walking step by step toward the stage.

“I have only entrusted Luna to come to the press conference to tell everyone that I am not dead."

Then, he smiled and looked at Adrian and Michael. “My dear father, who told you that I was dead?"

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1219

The entire venue was in pin-drop silence.

Adrian and Michael's eyes almost popped out from Joshua's sudden appearance!

Adrian and Michael looked at each other. What was going on? Did Aura not say that Joshua's injuries had not healed yet? Did she not say that he was stuck underground after an explosion and was most likely dead?

Aura also said that even if he was alive, they would not be able to get him out that quickly.

How did Joshua appear perfectly in front of them after a mere short night?

Also, Joshua had always been sitting in a wheelchair all this while because of the injuries on his abdomen.

How come after the explosion, not only did his injuries did not get more serious, but he also could stand up from the wheelchair?

It was baffling!

Right when Adrian and Michael were still in shock, Luna had already noticed it. Joshua's elegance and calmness were faked.

Others might notice him walking up the stage in a normal manner. Only she noticed that every time he took a step forward, his left leg would wobble a little due to the injury on the left side of the abdomen.

Clearly, the injuries on his abdomen still hurt.

Joshua was bearing through the pain, suppressing the discomfort he felt, to come and intimidate Adrian and Michael.

Luna bit her lips. She had the urge to rush forward to help him, but she could not.

Joshua is using all his might. He also did not want others to notice that his injuries have not healed. She could not expose him for that just because she was concerned for him.

However, in the end, she still could not bear to see it. She walked down the stage, waiting by the steps.

When Joshua was by her side, Luna said in a suppressed tone, “Why are you here?“

Joshua lowered his head and pressed in closer to her ears. His tone was low and rather flirtatious.

“Didn't you leave a message with Jude? About how you don't want to deal with such a huge matter alone. So, I'm here.“

Then, Joshua went around her and slowly walked up the steps onto the stage.

Luna's blood froze for a moment. Then, she felt as if her face was burning up.

She did indeed say that to Jude before she left the rescue site.

However, at that time, she thought that Joshua was truly in danger, that was why she said what she said.

What she intended was if Joshua was about to die, perhaps Jude saying such a thing to him might make Joshua hold on longer due to his sense of

responsibility.

However, she did not expect that Joshua would appear so soon. He could even walk normally to her and tell her, “I don't think you can hold on for much longer, so I'm here.“

Luna's heart beat wildly. It was as if...

As if she returned to when she started falling in love with him. A single sentence would be able to tug at her heartstrings.

Joshua stood on the stage, looking at the stunned reporters below the stage calmly.

“I met with an accident last night, so I was trapped under a pile of rocks. My good friend Jude Smith and Luna had been diligently getting experts and rescue teams to help me. I never would have thought...“

Joshua turned to look at Adrian behind him.

“From the time of the accident until now, eighteen hours have passed. These two so-called closest

family members of mine did not even go to the site of the rescue once. What were they thinking?

“They were thinking about how to get the Lynch Group assets in their hands, announcing my death even before I was rescued.“

The crowd was instantly in a mess upon Joshua's words.

Adrian and Michael's expressions turned ugly too. The reporters could no longer hold back.

“Mr. Adrian, Mr. Lynch said that eighteen hours have passed from the moment he met with the accident until now, you have not been to the site of the rescue to care for him once. Is this true? Or is Mr. Lynch fabricating this to ask for pity?"

Adrian's face finally regained a little of its colors.

He bit his lips. “Of course...of course, it's fabricated! " Adrian angrily glared at Joshua. “I don't know why Joshua would want to defame his own biological father! When he was buried in the ruins, Michael and I had gone to the rescue site to check up on him! "

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 1220

“He only doesn't know about it because he was buried underground! “

Then, Adrian sighed and rubbed the middle of his brows helplessly. “It's hard to be a good person nowadays! It's harder to be a good father. I 'm the one who cared about him the most, yet he says such things about me...“

Adrian said while tears fell from his eyes.

Joshua narrowed his eyes and sneered. The father and son duo truly knew how to put on a great act. It was a pity they were not in the entertainment industry!

“Might I ask, Mr. Adrian and Mr. Michael, when did the both of you go to the site of the rescue?“

Luna smiled. She walked up the stage and nonchalantly pushed a chair with a high back toward Joshua.

Joshua squinted his eyes and slowly leaned his left body on the chair.

He could barely hold on any longer.

Actually, he did not come out completely unscathed. Even if Lucas had protected him down below, when he climbed out from the rubble, the injury on his abdomen tore.

At that moment, the pain had already spread throughout his body. Even breathing was painful.

However, he could not give up right at that moment. He had seen too many people like Michael and Adrian, people who hurt a person when they are down. If they were to notice that he was still injured, they would use this as an excuse.

Thank goodness, Luna thoughtfully prepared a point of support for him, so that he would not suffer so badly.

He leaned against the chair, quietly looking at Luna debating with Adrian. At that instant, it felt like she was protecting him.

”Michael and I went last night ! ” Facing Luna's questions, Adrian was infuriated. ”Why? Should we have reported to you when we arrived?”

Luna smiled. ”No, you don't need to.” She took a deep breath. ”But I was at the rescue site all night long. I did not even sleep. Everyone there could be in y witness.

The reporters below were in an uproar once again!

Michael bit his lips hard. How could Luna just cancel the marriage whenever she liked!

Under the influence of rage, he swept a glance of where Luna was standing. She was standing right by the edge of the stage. The stage was at least three meters tall. Luna was so skinny and feeble. If she falls over, even if her bones did not break, she would still be admitted into the hospital!

At that thought, Michael swiftly rushed forward...
