Once Adrian got the news, he immediately sent someone to capture Rianna and Eanne from the kindergarten. In addition, he humiliated and insulted Rianna right in front of Eanne before sending Rianna off to a mental asylum. Three days later, Adrian released Eanne, who rushed to the mental asylum and discovered Rianna had unfortunately taken her life. Rianne‘s lifeless hand grasped tightly a letter she had written after she became insane. It was a letter to Joshua, and there were only two sentences in the letter
[I‘m your mother. Joshua, I love you.)
Eanne held Rianna‘s dead body in her arms and cried for a long time. Before she left Banyan City, she found out Rianna wanted to see Joshua before she died, but her request was denied.
The people who returned the message said Joshua said his mother had passed away a long time ago. He even said his mother was a smart woman, not a deranged person.
After that, Eanne never allowed anyone in the Moore family to mention Joshua and the Lynch family. She felt Joshua had the same blood coming from Adrian, that he was cold blooded, ruthless, and only cared about money.
“But...”
After Thomas finished the story about Joshua‘s mother, Yannie opened her mouth wanting to say something, but she did not know what to say.
She only knew about Joshua from her mother and Luna. The only interaction she had with Joshua was the short period when Joshua asked her to collect Thomas‘ DNA samples.
All the time, she thought Joshua was a good person because her mother, Mrs. Flores and Luna had praised him well. This was the first time she found out Joshua‘s father was a scumbag and how miserable Joshua‘s mother was.
“But what?” Thomas raised his eyebrows and shifted into a more comfortable position on the chair as he stared at Yannie. “After all that I said, are you going to tell me Joshua is innocent? Yes, he was innocent when Adrian tried to kill my aunt when she was giving birth. He was a newborn and couldn‘t do anything at that time. But what about five years later?
“He was five years old that year. He couldn‘t recognize his own mother Gs &*d}f even did something that hurt my aunt so badly. He‘s an accomplice to my aunt‘s death!” After that, Thomas closed his eyes. “The blood in his body belongs to that scumbag, so he, too, is a scumbag. Otherwise, why did Luna leave him in that way when she was three months pregnant seven years ago?”
He knew Joshua too well. That was why he rushed over to Merchant City after knowing Riley was in Joshua‘s hand.
Because of that, he did not dare to visit Riley as he liked.
“But...” Yannie sighed. “I don‘t think Joshua did it on purpose when he was five years old.” If she was a five–year–old and people around her told her that her mother was dead, she would not possibly believe the word of a crazy woman if she was to say that she was her mother.
Thomas snorted and said nothing. Yannle sighed again. “And... You said it yourself: your aunt, who is Joshua‘s mother, is a good person. How are you sure that Joshua only took after his father‘s genetics and not his mother?
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2592 by desirenovel
Thomas furrowed his brow and said nothing to Yannie‘s words.
Yannie, assuming that Thomas was considering her logic with his silence, slowly persuaded him, “Thomas, I know you don‘t like Joshua that much, but you can‘t just determine that he‘s terrible because his father was a scumbag and how naive he was when he was five years old.”
No matter how Yannie was reluctant to believe Thomas, she could tell whether Joshua was a scumbag or not. All this time, she knew how Joshua‘s attitude was when treating her mother, Luna, his three children, and Riley.
Moreover... Thomas had been in Merchant City for more than a month. Ever since the first day he arrived, he went after Joshua and Luna, even using being the ambassador of Luna‘s jewelry company to threaten Luna. Despite Thomas‘ challenges and provocation, Joshua did nothing but had Yannie gather Thomas‘ DNA specimens in exchange for payment. Joshua tolerated, understood, and took care of Thomas.
Yannie did not believe a man like Joshua was what Thomas said he was.
“So you‘re saying...” Thomas smirked and looked at Yannie in disdain. “Even after I told you about my aunt, you still don‘t believe me and rather believe in Joshua. Is that correct?” Yannie paused. Obviously, she felt Thomas was upset. She took a deep breath and wanted to explain to him. “I don‘t mean that. I just think there‘s a misunderstanding between you and Mr. Lynch, so—” “There‘s no misunderstanding,” interjected Thomas curtly. “I guess I‘m wrong.” Yannie was startled for a moment before joy filled her eyes. “So you admit?” “Of course.” Thomas opened the car door remotely. With a darkened gaze, he sneered, “I should‘ve known.” He continued sarcastically, “I should‘ve known when there was a rumor about you and Joshua. I kept telling myself that there‘s nothing between you and Joshua, but now...” His eyes looked serious. “I finally know the rumors aren‘t wholly unfounded. Even after I told you about my aunt, you‘re still defending Joshua, taking his side! From the looks of it, your relationship with Joshua is closer than the relationship between Joshua Cr}*%gig Luna. Well, I‘m sorry for getting in the way.” Yannie‘s eyes widened instantly. She stared at the man in front of her and was at a complete loss for words. After a while, she bit her lip and said, “Thomas, after everything that I told you, is this the conclusion you have? Is it?”
She had tried so hard to explain to Thomas that he had misunderstood Joshua and hoped he was not biased toward Joshua, yet he brought out the rumor between her and Joshua to say she was selfish and that there was something going on between her and Joshua! It seemed as though this was the image he had of her. The prejudice he had toward Joshua was far greater than the time they had spent together over a month. She even naively thought he
was a good person when she went to visit Riley with him.
She sniffled. “Thomas, I think I was wrong too. I shouldn‘t...
“I shouldn‘t think that both of us have feelings for each other.”
Suddenly, Thomas felt irritated to hear what Yannie said and to see tears that were about to leak from her eyes.
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2593 by desirenovel
Thomas furrowed his brow and leaned back on the car seat. He closed his eyes and ordered. ” Get out of the car!”
Yannie bit her lower lip and looked at him for one last time. Then, with eyes glossed with tears, she hissed, “Fine!”
She opened the door, got down from the car, and left without looking back. “Sir, I...” The driver furrowed his brow when he saw Yannie walking off angrily. “Do we need to go after her?” This irked Thomas. “Why should I do that? If she wants to leave, then let her!” After that, he exhaled deeply. “Drive to the bar.‘
The driver stayed silent for a while before replying, “Sir, you can‘t drink anymore with your current condition. Why don‘t we...go after Ms. Yannie and explain it to her?”
Thomas smiled bitterly. “Explain what?” He told her the hatred he had for Joshua because he wanted her to understand him and hoped that she would take his side. The result was not what he wanted.
The people Yannie cared about were still Joshua and Luna. To her, everything he said could not overcome the kindness Luna and Joshua gave to her. To her, anyone else was more important than he was!
This was the first time in Thomas‘ life that he felt so strongly defeated. He took a deep breath and instructed coldly, “To the bar.” The driver could not do anything else and turned the car around, heading to the nearest bar. Nonetheless, he texted Yannie after Thomas got out of the car.
Yannie was standing in front of Joshua’s house when she received the message from the driver. She raised her head and looked at the grand, luxurious mansion in front of her. After much hesitation, she decided to enter.
Joshua and Luna were good people, but so was Thomas. She believed that this was all a misunderstanding they were tangled in, and they could all be a whole family if this was brought to light.
She took a deep breath and wanted to enter the house, but there was a notification alert on her phone. She furrowed her brow and took out her phone to look.
It was a message from the driver.
(Mister Howard is in Dark Night Bar. His stomach has just recovered, Ds}!–dlh his liver is still recovering. I‘m afraid something might happen to him.] Yannie bit her lip when she saw the message. She wanted to reply but did not know what to type.
Should she go look for him?
At that moment, she recalled how cold and remote Thomas was when he shouted at her to get out of the car.
She hesitated.
After a while, she exhaled deeply, put away the phone, and entered Joshua‘s house.
Inside, Luna was busy cooking dinner for her children. It was not long since she returned home. She had been busy lately and did not have the chance to have dinner with Nigel, Neil, and Nellie.
Since she had the time today, she decided to reward them. After all, she would be traveling to Europa with Gwen in a few more days, and she did not know when she would be back after being apart from her children. “Luna.” Suddenly, Yannie‘s voice came from the door. She was standing at the kitchen door, looking uneasy. “Is Mr. Lynch at home? I...I wish to talk to both of you about Thomas.”
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2594 by desirenovel
Luna, who was cooking, paused. “Joshua‘s out working.” When Luna returned, she had called him and asked if he was coming home for dinner. It was rare for her to cook dinner, so she had hoped he could come home to eat dinner with her and the children.
Alas, Joshua said he had already made an appointment to meet a business partner in Dark Night Bar tonight. Thus, Luna could feel sorry for him for missing out on her delicious food this time. She was not a person who would disrupt Joshua‘s work arrangement because she wanted him home to have dinner together.
Despite that, she did not expect to see Yannie here, looking for him. She thought for a while and walked to the door while taking off her apron. “Why don‘t I call him and ask him to come back now?”
Yannie shook her head immediately. “No, it‘s fine. It‘s the same as telling you, too.” Luna and Joshua were a married couple, and they loved each other very much. Yannie trusted Luna to relay every single word she said to Joshua. She did not want to bother Joshua from work because of her and Thomas. Luna nodded and started to record with her phone while leading Yannie to sit on the sofa.
Yannie took a deep breath. “Luna, I know for a fact that you and Joshua don‘t have a good impression of Thomas...but there‘s a reason why Thomas did what he did.”
She looked at Luna and slowly told her about what Thomas said regarding his and Joshua‘s mother without leaving any parts behind. She even told Luna how Thomas said Luna and Joshua deliberately took Riley to be their own daughter after Joshua and Luna‘s baby died during birth.
All the while, Luna sat quietly and listened. In the end, she raised her head and looked at Yannie. “Hey, Yannie, do you still not know about...your baby?”
Yannie, who was talking about Riley with Luna, was caught off guard by the question. “My baby?”
Her baby was dead right after she gave birth three months ago, and she struggled for a whole few months to get past it. She did not know why Luna would suddenly mention this.
“Yes.” Luna looked at Yannie‘s puzzled look. She took a deep breath Ar}$,f}c said solemnly,” Yannie, Riley...is your daughter.” Clank!
The glass in Yannie‘s hand fell to the floor and shattered, the glass–shattering sound snapping Yannie awake. She hurriedly scrambled to squat and clean the mess, apologizing as she did, when Luna stopped her. Luna called for the maid to clean up the mess and dragged Yannie back to the sofa. “Yannie, I know it must be hard for you to accept this, but...Riley is really yours and Thomas‘ daughter. My daughter was kidnapped on the day she was born, but the people who kidnapped her got stopped by another group of people. So...the person who kidnapped my daughter was afraid that he couldn‘t accomplish his task, so he went to the hospital and took another baby.
“He took the child from the same hospital you gave birth to, Yannie. That child...is Riley.” She took out a DNA paternity report from the bag behind her. “This is the result of the test 1 got today. Riley is your daughter.” The news was like a bomb that exploded in Yannie‘s brain. ‘How could... How could that be? Riley is my and Thomas‘ daughter?‘ She bit her lip. The scene where Riley smiled at her when she and Thomas visited Riley appeared before her eyes..
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2595 by desirenovel
Yannie remembered how angry she was when Thomas said Riley was her daughter. She even reprimanded Thomas and asked him how many women he had before.
In addition...
Yannie looked down at the white shirt with puffy sleeves and mint green long skirt. When Thomas passed her this outfit, he said it was prepared for Riley‘s mother.
Therefore...this outfit was hers to begin with, was it not? Yannie bit her lip and accepted the DNA paternity test report from Luna. The report stated that Riley was really her daughter.
She and Thomas were Riley‘s parents! Her daughter was not dead! She was still alive in the hospital!
She felt her blood rushing throughout her body at these thoughts as she turned to look at Luna excitedly. “Luna, am I... Am I dreaming? I‘m not dreaming, am I?”
Riley, her Riley! From the first time she saw Riley, she thought Riley was endearing and adorable. She truly liked Riley a lot to the extent that she promised Luna she would be Riley‘s godmother.
Over the past month, she would always visit Riley right after she felt wronged during the shooting or after a press conference. Riley‘s smile was enough to brighten her day. In the past, Yannie thought it was because Riley was too cute and she liked Riley too much to have such an effect. As it turned out...
She looked at the report excitedly. She finally understood why she fell in love with Riley the first time she saw the infant and why her mood would alleviate after seeing Riley. It was all because Riley was her daughter. It was the miracle of mother–and–daughter bonding! “You‘re not dreaming.” Luna smiled lightly and extended her hand out to grab Yannie‘s hands. “Riley is your daughter. I only found out about it a few days ago.”
She was not like Joshua who liked to keep secrets. If she knew about the relationship between Riley and Yannie, she would have waited to tell her.
Yannie nodded profusely, her tears threatening to spill from her eyes due to the sheer joy she felt. “Thank you, Luna. Thank you so much! I know that if it weren‘t for you Cx}–*glg Mr. Lynch, Riley would be... She‘d be...”
She could not say the rest of the words.
Luna sighed and embraced Yannie lightly. “You don‘t have to thank me. Moreover...” She closed her eyes and sighed. “It‘s only right for us to take good care of Riley. If my daughter is sick or tortured out in the world... I hope someone could take care of her, too.”
Her heart broke when she thought of it.
Yannie had found her Riley, and with that, the duo and Thomas were reunited as a family. What about her and Joshua‘s daughter? She had been separated from her child for more than
three months. Was she doing fine? Was she...
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2596 by desirenovel
Meanwhile, in Dark Sky Bar... Thomas was sitting on the bar and downed one glass after another. His arrival was so abruptthat the owner did not have the time to clear everyone out of the bar.
Soon, people started to recognize him.
Word spread around, and many started to come to take a look at the superstar drinking in the bar.
For a while, the hall on the first floor was flooded with people.
Some were admiring his charm, some were taking his photos, while others plucked their courage and talked to him, surrounding him.
Nonetheless, Thomas could not be bothered to care about them.
He leaned on the bar and continued to drink.
All he could see was how Yannie got out of the car cold-bloodedly and how she fought for Joshua.
Suddenly, he felt so lonely, so pitiful, and helpless, like no one in the world understood him.
When he was young, his aunt was the apple of his eye.
Just when he started to learn around the age of four, his aunt was there with him allthe time.
Although his aunt was demented, she had been nothing but kind to him.
She gave him candy every day, played with him, and even taught him things.
She always told him that she had a son too, and her son was one year older than him.
She had never seen his son before, but she trusted her son to look just as cute as Thomas was.
To others, his aunt was a lunatic.
To Thomas, his aunt was the best playmate and friend he had.
She was never fierce with him nor had she ever harmed him.
On his fourth birthday, he had prepared the cake and everything else.
He waited for his aunt to come back to celebrate his birthday with him.
However, what came back was the bad news of his aunt passing away.
It must have been the bond only twins had, but after his aunt passed away, hismother's physical state deteriorated every day.
When his mother found out about his father's affair, she died in anger.
After a week of his mother's burial, his father brought home his mistress and his mistress' child.
From then onward, he became a child that no one cared about.
If his grFo}!-»-elgfather did not leave a will stating the inheritance would only take effect after Thomas was 18 years old, his father and mistress could have thrown him outof the house.
All these years, he was raised by servants while living away from his own house.
He did not have any family or friends.
He was always alone.
That was until Malcolm contacted him and told him he had a daughter, as well as Yanniein Merchant City, the girl who radiated life regardless of how rough her life was.
He thought his life would change because of Riley and Yannie.
As it turned out...
Yannie could not stop defending Joshua for his aunt's death.
To her, he was never better than Luna and Joshua, who had been kind and gracious to her.
Thomas could not stop drinking.
Even as his vision became blurry, he smiled bitterly.
In the end, he was still alone without anyone who understood him, cared for him, or worried about him.
He was still the same; all alone by himself and did not deserve anyone to care for him.
"What’s going on down there?" Joshua asked.
He was in a business meeting in a private room on the second floor when he heard thecommotion happening downstairs.
Lucas went out to take a look before he returned, reporting, "Sir, people are all everywhere on the first floor.
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2597 by desirenovel
Celebrities these days tend to get out of control. They knew they would cause commotions by showing up in public,yet they still wanted to go out without any disguise.
"Mr.Lynch, let's just ignore it," said Nathan Allen as he raised his glass.
He was the one Joshua had a business appointment with.
"I need to thank you and Ms.Luna for taking care of Theo all this while. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know he's no longer bothering Ms.Luna and was after a doctor who's about to get married. This time, his mother and I are here to bring him back."
Joshua curled up his lips and looked at Nathan.
"Mr.Allen, I invited you here to talk business with you, not because I want you to interfere with Theo and Dr.Liddell's relationship." After that, he paused for a while before continuing, "Furthermore...there could still be chances available for Theo and Dr.Liddell." Yes, Rachel was engaged to Caleb.
Theo did not know about Caleb's sexual orientation, but Joshua knew about it very well.
Caleb's ex-boyfriend had been causing Rachel trouble ever since he knew Caleb was going to marry Rachel,too.
Rachel fought back calmly and was neither sad nor upset.
She did not even tell Caleb about this and had him manage his ex-boyfriend, either.
Thus, it was obvious Rachel was not in love with Caleb.
The wedding was probably a means for them to get what they wanted.
Caleb needed a wife to cover up his sexual orientation while Rachel needed a reason to forget Theo.
From that perspective, the relationship between Theo and Rachel was not beyond repair.
"It's nice if Theo could marry such a fantastic woman like Dr.Liddell. Otherwise..." Celeste sighed.
"We'd still like to bring him back and find him a woman that matches our family."
At this point, Celeste looked up and smiled at Joshua.
"It may be a joke to you, but Theo is around the same age as you are.
You already have three seven years old children, and we still don't know when Theo is getting married.
As his parents, we're very anxious..." Suddenly, she thought of something Ay{#.hlh raised her head.
"Oh, yes. Mr.Lynch. I heard Luna's brother lost his memory, did he?" Joshua took his glass and took a sip and nodded.
"Yes." Celeste took out a piece of paper from her pocket, "I have a remedy here that you can try.
A doctor told me this remedy when I knew Theo was still alive.
I thought Theo, like your son Neil, had lost his memory, so I prepared for the worstcase scenario.
As it turned out, he never lost his memory, so it was never put to use." Joshua furrowed his browand accepted it.
"Thank you." "You don't have to thank me." Celeste sighed.
"I did my fair share at troubling Luna when Theo went missing.
I even forced her to swear..." Celeste's gaze dulled with conflict when she thought of the past.
"When Theo came back, I realized I was wrong, and I've been wanting to make up for my mistakes.
Take this remedy as compensation for my mistakes.
I hope her brother will recover soon." Joshua smiled and thanked her again before they continued to talk about their cooperation.
Whereas down below them, a person dressed in with made her way out of the crowd.
"Thomas, stop drinking." Wendy took away the glass from Thomas' hand.
"You've had enough. Let me take you somewhere to rest!" After that, she looked at her assistant, who made a gesture and lowered her head to type on her phone.
Wendy looked at the message quickly.
[The hotel room is checked in.) Wendy's lips curled into a pleasant smile as she continued to pullThomas' arm.
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2598 by desirenovel
"Let go of me..." Even though Thomas was outright intoxicated, he could tell the woman in front of him was not Yannie.
He pushed Wendy away and stumbled his way back to his seat.
"I want to drink more... I'm not drunk! I don't need to rest!" After that, he took out some cash and slammed it on the bar.
"Serve me my drinks!" The bartender did not dare to take his money as he looked at how drunk Thomas was.
He looked at Wendy sheepishly before he glanced at Thomas.
“Mr.Howard," he feebly replied," you can't drink anymore." Thomas sneered, "Why not? I have money!" He took out a black card from his pocket and slammed it on the table,much to Wendy's sheer surprise as her eyes bugged out of their sockets.
She recognized that black card.
It was a limited black card issued by the world's largest bank 30 years ago! There were only two cards in thisworld.
One was possessed by the Howard family, and the other was in the custody of the famous and reputable family from Saigen City, the Lemingtonfamily.
Although the Howard family had this card, it should not be in Thomas' hand.
Thomas was, after all, the first child of Senior Howard from his first wife.
After all these years, Senior Howard and his new wife had confused and distorted the facts.
To others, Thomas was the illegitimate child abandoned by the Howard family How could he be holding the black card that symbolized the Howard family? CouldThomas have taken control of the Howard family and became the head of the family? Wendy felt even more exhilarated at the thought.
If Thomas was the new head of the Howard family, and if she slept with him tonight...
If she was successfully pregnant with his baby, she and her child would be set for life! She quickly extended her hand out withexcitement to take the black card.
"You're drunk, Thomas.
You don't actually need to use this card to buy the drinks here.
Let me keep it for me.
Why don't we go and have a rest?" She slowly brought the card into her pocket.
"Ms.Fann, I'm afraid that's not very appropriate." Just when Wendy was about to put the black card into herpocket, a man appeared Br}-,dlc grabbed her wrist.
The man applied more pressure to the grip.
Wendy felt pain and loosened her hand, causing the black card to fall to the floor.
The man used another hand to pick up the black card and said, "You're not the rightperson to keep this black card for him." The cold voice from the man irked Wendy so badly that she raised her head and stared at the man in front of him.
"Who do you think you are? If I'm not the right person to help him keep it,don't tell me you are!" Wendy felt her brain freezing when she registered the sight before her.
It was none other than Joshua, who had one of his men send her to the policestation.
In fact, she snuck out of the police station.
Theoretically speaking, she was supposed to be detained in the police station for one week.
Once she heard Thomas was drinking here, she quickly looked for her assistant to bail her out.
After she coaxed and bothered unceasingly, she finally came out tonight by using the excuse saying thatshe was sick.
Thus, the person Wendy was scared to see the most was Joshua.
All that, and she still bumped into him! "If I remembered correctly, you're not supposed to be here." Joshua waved his hand and had Lucas inspectThomas.
He looked down from a condescending angle at Wendy's face.
"Ms.Fann, should I send you back now, or are you going to go back on your own?" Wendy's face looked terrible.
She bit her lip and looked at the crowd around her.
She knew Joshua purposely was helping her to avoid humiliation.
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2599 by desirenovel
Not many people knew Wendy had been detained. If Joshua decided to tell everyone she was detained because she had exposedother people's privacy in a live stream...she would never have the chance to work in the entertainment industry anymore! Wendy took a deep breath and looked back at her assistants.
"Let's go." At this moment, she did not have the power and courage to go against Joshua.
She needed to be able to work in the entertainment industry.
After taking a few steps, still bitter, she turned around and looked at Joshua.
"If I remember correctly, your business in Merchant City got disrupted and interfered with by someone more than amonth ago. Why did you come out now?" Wendy's true question was obvious.
Thomas had been meddling with Joshua's business, so why did Joshua want to help Thomas repeatedly? Joshua knew what she was asking about.
He curled up his lips and smiled.
"Because I have a cousin. His family name is Howard." Wendy fell silent at this response.
She bit her lip and looked at the drunk Thomas, then at Joshua once more.
It never occurred to her that Joshua and Thomas were related.
Looking at them...there were a few similarities between the two men.
She sighed.
"I have nothing else to say." After that, she left with her two assistants.
Once Wendy left, Joshua leaned on the bar elegantly, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and lit it up.
Then, he looked at the crowd around him.
"Are you guys planning to watch further?" It was a simple question, but it was filled with a strong meaning that suffocated many.
The crowd exchanged looks with each other and quickly dispersed.
When everyone was gone, Joshua took over Thomas, who was obviously drunk and passed out, from Lucas.
"Sir, I'll carry him," said Lucas with a small voice as he furrowed his brow.
Ever since Joshua fell from the cliff more than a year ago, it was hard for him to do any physically related work.
Not even Luna knew about this.
It was a secret between Joshua and Lucas.
"It's okay." Joshua sighed Gr}.-gla bent over to carry Howard.
As he walked, he indifferently added, "Before I knew Thomas, I didn’t even know I had a cousin.
He was only five years old when his mother passed away, and he was the child from the first wife.
All that, yet he was called an illegitimate child...
"It must've been very rough for him all these years. I'm one of the few families he has left, but I never once took care of him."
That was why no matter how Thomas troubled him, he neverfought back during the month and more.
After knowing Thomas' life, he felt sorry for Thomas and thought that he must feel very lonely.
In fact...he should have investigated his mother's family earlier on.
As his father continuously blamed him for the death of his mother over the years, he did not dare to face knowing anything about her mother.
He knew nothing except her mother's family name was Moore.
Furthermore, he only knew about his mother's father after meeting Christian.
That was how he knew Thomas was his cousin more than a month ago.
After Joshua put Thomas in the car, his phone rang.
Luna was calling him.
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2600 by desirenovel
Joshua returned home and headed to the study. When he pushed the door to enter, he spotted Luna reading the information Nigelsearched for her.
Yannie had told everything Thomas told her, including the truth about Joshua's mother's death, to Luna.
The first thing Luna did after listening was to tell it to Joshua.
Secondly, she had Nigel help search for any records.
She understood Joshua too well.
If she did not ask Nigel to help with the investigation, he would get Lucas todo it.
She rather did it on her own and got Nigel to help rather than waiting for him to investigate and doing nothing about it.
Nigel was having his summer break, too.
He did not have to go to school and had much spare time in his hands.
"What are you reading?" After entering the study, Joshua took off his tie and walked over.
He put a hand on the table and another one on Luna’s waist while looking at the laptop screen in front of Nigel.
It was the information Nigel found in the mental asylum in Banyan City.
The record showed that a woman was admitted to the mental asylum for treatment when Joshua was five yearsold.
On the fifth day in the mental asylum, the woman chose to end her life.
In spite of that, the registration name of this woman was not Joshua's mother's name.
It was a non-related person by the name of Ruth Hayes.
Luna furrowed her brow and looked at Joshua.
"Do you know this Ruth Hayes?" If she remembered correctly, Granny Lynch who passed away more than a year ago had the same family name as this person.
"Yes." Joshua's eyes narrowed slightly.
"I know." Ruth was a relative from Granny Lynch's side, around the same age as Adrian.
By seniority, Adrian should address Ruth as his aunt.
When Joshua was small, Ruth became a crazy person who roamed around the village every day.
He saw her once before and later heard she died in a col.
Ruth had made a great impression on Joshua's mind because she was evidently a lunatic.
That was why he remembered this name.
"This Ruth Hayes...
She's not the one who stayed in the mental asylum." Although Ruth was demented, Joshua remembered very clearly that he saw her once when hewas nine years old.
Luna paused Dm #, a{b extended her hand out to grab Joshua's hand.
Frankly speaking, she had guessed this name was not the real name of the patient.
Otherwise, she would not let Nigel search for this woman's information.
It had been a long time since Joshua was five years old.
All of the information related to this Ruth Hayes were photos of written information.
Other than those, they could not find anything else.
Luna also tried to search for information when Thomas' mother brought Rianna for treatment in Saigen City, but she failed tofind any.
It was hard to prove Adrian had once hurt Rianna based on this admittance information of Ruth Hayes.
Surely, Adrian would deny and argue.
"You don't have to care about this anymore." Joshua knew Luna was trying to help him unearth proof that Adrian had abused Rianna, all to make Adrianpay for what he did.
However, it was too long ago, and Thomas still misunderstood Joshua at present.
It was not something that could be solved within a day or two.
Nonetheless, he felt warm and touched by Luna and Nigel's thoughts.
He stretched out his long arms and pulled Luna into an embrace.
"Thank you." Luna's heart trembled when she felt the familiar temperature and breath.
After being together for so long, she would still feel nervous every time they became intimate.
"I'm leaving." Nigel grabbed his laptop immediately when he saw his parents having one of their moments.
He dashed out the door with his short legs.
"If I find any other information, I'll text both of you." He was so thoughtful thathe did not want to disturb his parents.
