Luna stopped breathing the moment she heard Thomas say those words.
After a while, she took a deep breath. “Impossible.”
She did not believe that Joshua would not discuss with her letting Riley leave with Thomas.
“If you don’t believe me, you can ask him yourself,” said Thomas, his voice sounding as though he was smiling, “I just came out from Joshua’s office.”
Luna could not help but furrow her brow. She stopped her work and leaned back in her chair.” What are you trying to do? Fine, even if you’re Riley’s father and you use your right as her father to take her away, why are you taking Yannie away?”
“Because…” Thomas was silent for a while. “Because of yesterday’s incident. She’s now rumored to be my girlfriend, so we have to play the part.” Then, he paused for a while. “Actually, it’s fine if you don’t see me. I just wanted to apologize to you in person.” Luna’s eyes widened. She was in a daze. Did she mishear him? Was Thomas Howard apologizing to her?
Perhaps he could guess her reaction that Thomas, on the other end of the line, chuckled. “You don’t have to be so surprised. I’ll admit that I didn’t investigate before harboring negative thoughts about you and Joshua. But, after all, Malcolin Quinn was close to you previously, I never would’ve thought….”
Thomas did not need to finish his sentence, but Luna had guessed what he was going to say.
She bit her lip, not knowing what to say.
Back then…
When she saw Malcolm next to Thomas, she had a bad impression of him. At this moment, with how Thomas admitted that he was lied to by Malcolm, she had a strange feeling in her heart
She held onto her phone in silence for a long time before slowly saying, “Where are we meeting?”
Her reply seemed to have stunned Thomas.
After a while, he said, “I thought you didn’t want to meet.”
Luna massaged her glabella and looked at the express mail she received on her desk that day.” I have a friend who’s a plastic surgeon. She thinks your face is so perfect that no human could make it. She likes you a lot.”
Thomas did not understand what she was trying to say. “So…”
“She sent me a lot of things, and I need you to sign them.”
Thomas was silent for a long time before letting out a sigh. “You have such a friend, huh?”
“Of course.”
Luna shut her eyes and leaned back on her chair. She suddenly felt that her long hatred for Thomas was slowly diminishing after he apologized to her.
“She was the one who helped me with my face back then. I’m sure you know about this, right? Seven years ago, Malcolm destroyed my face.”
Upon hearing Luna mention Malcolm, Thomas paused for a while before rubbing his glabella. “What type of autograph does your friend want? Also… I have caused you and Joshua troubles recently. Is there anything I could do to compensate?”
Luna furrowed her brow and thought for a while. “There is, but I don’t know if you’ll agree to it or not.”
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2612 by desirenovel
The sun had set.
When Luna returned to Joshua’s house, Joshua was on the sofa hugging Nellie, looking at her latest design.
Nellie was dressed in a white billowy dress, fit for a royal, and had a huge bow on her head with her hair slightly curled. She was nestled in Joshua’s arms, smiling. “Daddy, what do you think of my design? Will Mommy like it?”
“She will.”
Joshua looked at Nellie’s designs seriously while smiling and ruffling her head gently. “Your Mommy will like anything you make.”
Nellie pursed her lips. “Daddy, you’re brushing me off! You think it doesn’t look nice!”
Joshua smiled a little. “I am not.”
“You are!” Nellie puffed her cheeks.
Neil, who was by the side, helplessly looked at his father and sister bickering before looking at Nigel, who had his head buried in a book. In the end, he pushed his drink to Nellie. “I’m sure you’re thirsty after quarreling with Daddy, right? Drink up.”
Nellie pouted. She took the drink and looked at Neil unhappily. “You must think I’m noisy.”
Neil smiled. “I don’t.”
“You do!” Nellie pursed her lips. She was about to have another go at Neil, just like how she did to Joshua previously.
Joshua leaned back on the sofa. He looked at Neil and Nellie before helplessly looking at Nigel, who was reading
It was a coincidence that Nigel was looking at him too. Their eyes met and they smiled at the same time. Then, they looked away. Nigel continued reading while Joshua continued admiring Nellie’s design sketches.
In the middle of the sofa, Nellie and Neil were bickering on and off. Nellie was making a fuss and Neil was accompanying her. Luna stood by the door, looking at the scene unfold, and the sadness she felt for Riley and Yannie leaving instantly dissipated.
She looked at the three children and Joshua. These were the people closest to her, the ones that she missed the most. As long as they remained with her, what more could she want?
Everyone wanted to feel blissful. Perhaps, that was what she was feeling at that moment.
She stood by the door, watching for a long time until her phone rang. The sudden ring attracted the gaze of Joshua and the children in the living area.
“Mommy?” Nellie’s eyes widened. “Since when did you return?” Luna, who was caught sneaking behind them, smiled awkwardly and immediately answered her call.
It was from Yannie. She was saying goodbye to her.
“Luna, it’s a little sudden, but Thomas suddenly told me that he needs to film a television series back in Saigen City. The filming will take a long time, and he wants me to take my mother along because it’ll be more than six months. I can’t leave my mother here, so…”
Yannie, on the other end of the line, sighed wearily. “You have to find someone else to care for Nigel, Neil, and Nellie. I can’t let my mother stay in Merchant City. Also, the things between Thomas and me have been announced, as well as my previous medical records. Many people know about me and my mother. If Thomas and I aren’t in Merchant City, I’m afraid that she’d be harassed or sought revenge by others. I can’t possibly trouble you and Mr. Lynch to always care for her, so…”
Hearing how apologetic Yannie sounded, Luna smiled a little. “It’s fine. I’ll find someone else,
but…”
Luna paused for a while. She looked at the four of them in the living area. She gestured at them before turning and heading out of the mansion.
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2613 by desirenovel
Walking to the courtyard in front of the mansion, the cool night breeze cleared Luna’s mind up a little.
She sat on the bench by the side and said calmly, “Yannie, I want to know your thoughts about Thomas.”
She already knew about Thomas’ feelings toward Yannie. However, she did not know if Yannie was willing to give birth to Riley for Thomas back then because she liked Thomas or because she just liked children.
Perhaps Yannie did not expect that Luna would suddenly ask her about her love life that she fell silent. The quietness lasted for a long few seconds before Yannie depressingly replied, ” Luna, why are you…suddenly asking me this?”
Luna leaned back. She closed her eyes and enjoyed the night breeze, “I’ın just curious. Now that you know that Riley is your child with Thomas, what are you planning to do next? Thomas isn’t going to let Riley go, and if you don’t want to give Riley up, it seems that you can only…continue to be with him. Which is why, Yannie, I want to know your thoughts.”
Luna asked this not because she wanted to play matchmaker. It was that Riley did not have a long time to be with her anymore. She wanted to see Riley have a family of her own and grow up happily, and she would then feel relieved.
In other words, since she could not find her child, she could only put her hopes on Riley.
IL… If her fourth child with Joshua was no longer around, seeing Riley living happily would at least give her some comfort.
“I…” Yannie’s voice trembled. “I don’t know. Actually, L…”
Truth be told, she…began falling for Thomas a little already.
No. Perhaps she should say that she had always liked Thomas, ever since that night more than a year ago. From not knowing who Thomas was, to becoming his loyal fan, to joining his fan club and being the leader of his fan club…every step she took made her fall deeper for this man.
Back then, when she found out she was pregnant with Thomas’ child, she was over the moon. She never thought of getting close to him or having him for herself. It was more as if liking himn has given her satisfaction in life.
It was until she met him in real life.
Her feelings for him started from liking him, to being disappointed in him, back to slowly liking him “Actually, I do want to raise Riley with him.”
Pausing for a long time, Yannie finally said, “Luna, I also know your feelings toward Riley. I know you can’t let her go, so, if it’s possible, I’ll try my best to stay with Thomas and take good care of Riley. If Thomas and I really end up together, in the future, I’ll often take him and Riley to see you.” Upon hearing Yannie’s words, Luna smiled. “Great.”
She had asked Thomas the same question. His answer was more or less the same as Yannie’s.
Riley had her family at long last.
At that thought, Luna hung up the call as a lone tear streamed down her face.
Riley was going to be happy. What about her child?
“Luna.”
Suddenly, a low man’s voice rang out in her ear. At the same time, a large hand gently wiped away her tears.
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2614 by desirenovel
Luna did not open her eyes. Instead, she cradled the hand that wiped away her tears and buried herself into that person’s arins.
She did not need to look at him to know what he looked like and what his expression was at that moment.
Joshua hugged her tightly. His voice was rather hoarse. “You heard about it?”
He meant about Thomas leaving with Riley and Yannie.
“Yes.” Luna nodded and said, her voice cracking, “Riley is leaving. That’s good, too. They’re actually related and are a family, L…I’m only with her for a short while.”
She understood this, but…
She thought that if she could not find her daughter, raising Riley would be good too. Alas, this would all be mere wishful thinking
She should wish Yannie and Thomas well. She should be happy for Riley, but she felt empty inside.
Joshua sighed. He hugged her tightly and said calmly in a low voice, “I know what you’re thinking, so…”
Joshua smiled and said, “I plan to take you along to Saigen City next week.”
Luna’s eyes instantly widened at that. She looked at him in disbelief. “We’re going to Saigen City?”
“Yes.”
Joshua gently caressed her head. “Didn’t you plan to take Gwen abroad to relax? I’m sure you all won’t mind having an extra person, right?”
Luna looked at him and was at a loss for words. After a while, she bit her lip and said, “I…I have to ask Gwen…”
Luna initially planned for a best friend trip with Gwen. She wanted Gwen to see more of the world, to see sights that they have never seen before and to experience different cultures.
That way, perhaps Gwen could quickly walk out of the grief of Luke abandoning her.
When Gwen no longer cared about Luke anymore, she would take Gwen to Luke’s grave and tell her about Luke’s passing. Gwen surely would be able to accept it easier by then.
At that moment, whether it was her or Bonnie, none of them dared to tell Gwen about the news of Luke’s passing
Gwen loved Luke dearly. If she were to find out about everything…
She was afraid that Gwen would not be able to take it and would want to follow Luke. If Gwen died, Luke’s efforts would be in vain. His death would mean nothing.
This was why Luna planned that the trip would just be them both. With the sudden addition of Joshua, Luna was afraid that Gwen would be displeased.
“I’ve already asked Gwen. She agreed.”
Looking at Luna hesitating, Joshua sighed helplessly. He hugged her arms tightly. “Lulu, I’m your husband. I thought you’d tell me without any hesitation that you’d persuade Gwen,” Joshua said with a smile, clearly joking
Luna pursed her lips. “Yes, we are husband and wife, so if I don’t take you along, you won’t be unhappy about it because you understand me, but Gwen…”
Gwen’s emotions were still unstable at that moment. The main focus of this trip would be Gwen. Of course, Luna had to put Gwen first.
Moreover, if they brought Joshua on the trip, it would change no matter what. Gwen would even think that she would become the third wheel on this trip. “I understand.”
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2615 by desirenovel
Joshua smiled. “Don’t worry, I’m only going to Saigen City with you two. Once we’re there, I’ll be busy with my work while you both go sightseeing No interference.” Luna furrowed her brow and looked at Joshua, who was hugging her. “What are you busy doing there?”
Joshua reached out and gently ruffled her head. “I have a business deal with Thomas.”
Luna was stunned before she recalled that at the studio when Thomas called her, he seemed to have vaguely mentioned his business deal with Joshua.
Back then, Luna was filled with the reluctance of Riley and Yannie leaving with him, so she did not pay attention to that topic.
Thinking back about this, she furrowed her brow and looked at Joshua. “What…deal did you two make?”
“You’ll know once we’re at Saigen City.”
Joshua lowered his head and kissed her forehead gently. “I was the one who suggested Thomas take Yannie and Riley along.”
Under Luna’s stunned gaze, Joshua let out a sigh and slowly said, “Lulu, Riley and Yannie are going to become Thomas’ family in the future. I guess they’ll leave with Thomas sooner or later.
“Your previous thought was to hope that Thomas has a good relationship with Yannie and Riley in Merchant City and that you could see Thomas treating them well before allowing them to leave, right?”
Luna nodded.
Joshua smiled. “But, even by spending time with them in Merchant City for this short while, we saw Thomas’ sincerity. Of course, you’d probably be worried even after they leave. If that’s the case, we should just let Thomas take them back to his hometown while we follow them. That way, even if we split ways in the future, you won’t have to worry about it anymore, right? Moreover…”
He reached his hand out and caressed Luna’s head. “You initially thought of going on a trip with Gwen. You could do these two things together, and I….”
Joshua paused for a while before slowly saying, “I want to go to Saigen City to pay respects to my mother.”
Luna was stunned for a while before remembering that Joshua’s mother, Rianna, was buried in Thomas’ hometown, Saigen City.
The grave in Banyan City was a fake that Adrian had set up when he announced to the public that she was dead,
Luna sighed. She gently reached out and hugged Joshua. “Okay, we’ll do it your way.”
Since she needed to go on a trip and Joshua needed to pay his respects, they would do that and go see Thomas, Riley, and Yannie at the same time–killing two birds with one stone.
At that thought, Luna no longer felt sad about Riley and Yannie leaving
Joshua hugged her, and they sat in the courtyard under the sunset for a long time until Nellie carefully pushed open the door. “Daddy, Mommy, time to eat!”
Luna came to her senses. She looked up and realized that the sky was completely dark. She had not made dinner for her children!
She immediately got out of Joshua’s arms and strode into the mansion.”I’ll go make dinner for you all right now!” “No need!” Nellie blinked her huge eyes at Luna and smiled. “Nigel and Neil had already made them!”
Joshua, by the side, raised an eyebrow. “They know how to cook?”
He, as their father, did not even know how to cook, yet they did?
“They do, a little.” Nellie cocked her head and added, “Nigel said that Neil’s cooking is quite good.
“His food, on the other hand, well…it’s been tested. It won’t kill a person.”
Joshua narrowed his eyes and had a bad feeling about this. “It’s been tested?”
“Yes.” Nellie smiled. “Uncle Lucas has tried it before. Other than diarrhea, he had no other symptoms!”
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2616 by desirenovel
Hearing what Nellie said, Luna restrained herself from laughing while looking at Joshua, who also sported a small smile.
He walked forward and squatted to hoist Nellie into his arms before striding into the house. When they were at the door, he turned to look back at Luna. “Come, let‘s go try Neil‘s cooking.
Luna smiled and started to walk. “What about Nigel‘s cooking?”
“Lucas can have all of it.” He turned around and entered the house with Nellie in his arms.
The corner of Luna‘s lips curled up as she looked at the back of Joshua and Nellie. Then, she quickly chased after them.
When they walked into the house, Lucas just got out of the washroom while rubbing his stomach.
At that moment, Nellie felt rather guilty as she stared at his pale face. After all, she had started to get closer to him after spending time with him for more than a year.
Thus, Nellie winked and looked at Joshua, then at Luna. “Daddy, Mommy, why don‘t I...eat Nigel‘s cooking on behalf of Uncle Lucas?” she asked sweetly.
She knew her parents would never allow her to eat Nigel‘s terrible cooking, so this method would definitely work to help Lucas escape the fate of eating Nigel‘s cooking.
Surprisingly, Joshua turned down Nellie‘s request today. He raised his hand and pinched Nellie‘s nose. “I know you want to be a good girl and help Uncle Lucas. But...”
He raised his head and looked at Lucas, who was walking out of the washroom while holding the wall, coldly. “Uncle Lucas must finish all of Nigel‘s cooking today. This is his punishment.” Lucas had trouble breathing because of Joshua‘s stern and strong pressure. He remembered... The last time Joshua used the same look at him was when Joshua knew he used his authority to allow the doctor to come to the house. As he remembered, he could not help and felt guilty.
Today...not only did he secretly contact Adrian, but he even went to talk over coffee with Thomas. Could Joshua have found out about this?
“What mistake did Uncle Lucas make that you need to punish him?” Nellie did not understand what Joshua said. She tilted her head and frowned while looking at Lucas, then at Joshua.
“He knew what mistake he made.” Joshua glanced at Lucas unforgivingly. “If you finish Nigel‘s cooking, I can look past your transgression. Otherwise...”
He squinted and did not finish his sentence.
At that time, Lucas knew what Joshua was about to say, even when Joshua did not finish his sentence. He took a deep breath and looked at the black–colored dishes made by Nigel on the table.
Finally, he made up his mind and stormed forward to eat these dishes.
The atmosphere of the dining room was rather depressing. Luna sensitively noticed Joshua was serious about punishing Lucas, much to her bewilderment. She smiled awkwardly and
walked toward Joshua, taking Nellie into her arms and placing her on the chair before sitting down.
“Come on, what are you waiting for? Let‘s eat,” Luna said. Joshua‘s face looked less cold when he heard Luna‘s gentle voice. He sighed and went to sit at the dining table to have dinner with Luna and his three children.
Halfway through the meal, Lucas finished Nigel‘s cooking. He touched his stomach and dashed into the toilet on the first floor again.
Luna furrowed her brow as she looked at Lucas‘ back. She turned to the side and looked at Nigel. “Is your cooking...really that terrible?”
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2617 by desirenovel
Luna did not take a single bite.
“Yes.” Nigel curled up his lips and smiled while subconsciously looking at Joshua.
Coincidentally, Joshua was looking at him, too. As they made eye contact, Joshua smiled as Nigel‘s eyes twinkled with what seemed to be mischief.
Nigel was a smart kid; cooking was not a difficult task for him. He did not want Nellie and Neil to keep on bothering him to cook, so he added a few ‘extras‘ to his dishes.
Joshua knew all about Nigel‘s plan. It happened at the right time as Joshua wanted to give Lucas a lesson. Both of them worked together and decided on this immoral plan. From the looks of it, it was a successful plan, killing two birds with one stone.
Lucas got his punishment, and no one else in the family would ever think about letting Nigel cook again in the future.
Nigel, the little genius, could continue to eat Neil‘s cooking and drink the beverage Nellie made, while Nigel and Nellie would never let him step foot in the kitchen anymore.
The mere thought made Nigel smile.
“Nigel, what are you smiling at?” Luna noticed how her son was in a good mood with a faint smile on his face. She knew Nigel was not a child who liked to smile.
At that moment, Nigel realized he was too immersed in his victory, so he coughed awkwardly and looked at Luna. “Nothing, Mommy. I just...” He frowned and said, “I‘m just thinking about what I should cook next for Neil and Nellie.” Nigel and Nellie trembled when they heard that. Both of them exchanged looks as fear appeared in their eyes. However, no one said anything. They lowered their heads and continued eating their dinners seriously.
Luna was amused.
The dinner ended happily. Luna then brought the children for showers and tucked them into their beds before she made her way to the study.
The tall, strong man was standing in front of the French window with a glass of red wine in his hand while looking at the night sky. He looked back when he heard the door opening and smiled at Luna.
“I know what you want to ask me.”
She curled up her lips and walked to stand behind Joshua. She stretched out her hand to hug Joshua‘s toned, muscular waist. “Tell me, then; what do I want to ask?”
After so many years, his muscles were still so sexy and seductive. As she hugged him, she could obviously feel the outline of his muscles through the clothing. She closed her eyes and remembered how flustered she was when she first saw his abs. Within a blink of an eye, many years had passed.
“You come to tell me you think Lucas‘ punishment is too over, am I right?” Joshua asked. AN
Luna paused and nodded. Lucas had been going in and out of the washroom for the whole night. When she went downstairs to drink water, she bumped into Lucas, who had just walked out of the washroom. His face was so pale. “He contacted Adrian to tell him I want to investigate the real reason for my mother‘s death.” Joshua extended his hand and grabbed Luna‘s hand. “Adrian was afraid I‘d find out the truth, He tried to run away once he knew and he nearly got away. If Jude didn‘t help, the consequences would be unthinkable.” He paused and continued, “Do you still think his punishment should be over?”
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2618 by desirenovel
Luna never expected this was what happened. She leaned on Joshua‘s back, stupefied and at a loss for words.
“Alright.” Joshua smiled and grabbed her hand tightly. “You had a busy day, and it‘s time to rest. Although Lucas made a mistake, it‘s nothing worth fretting over. Before he became my assistant, he worked in the family and was quite close with Adrian. It was understandable for him to contact Adrian.
“Besides, Lucas has helped me a lot over these few years. Even if there‘s no merit, he also worked hard. This is the second time he made a mistake.”
Joshua could endure the first and second times Lucas made mistakes. Nonetheless, if Lucas made a mistake for the third time…
He narrowed his eyes slightly. If there was a third time, he would have to consider if he should continue to keep Lucas by his side.
“Yeah.” Luna understood what Joshua was thinking, so she nodded and let go of him. “I‘ll go rest now. You should sleep early too.”
She took a deep breath and turned to leave the study. When she was back in the bedroom, she went to take her shower as usual. After that, she lay on the bed to play with her phone. Suddenly, a notification alert came in to notify Luna there was an unread message. Luna furrowed her brow and, upon clicking on the notification, was greeted with Malcolm‘s messages. [Luna, can you please save me after I took care of you and your children for six years?] [I lied to Thomas about Riley... Now, he‘s sending his men to look for me and said he wants to break my leg!)
[Can you please help me with this one last time?]
Looking at these messages, Luna squinted and blocked Malcolm‘s number. It was true that Malcolm did look after her and her children for six years, but it was all to use her and her children to threaten Joshua. Since this was his true color, it meant Luna did not owe him anything in return.
Furthermore... Just this year alone, she and Joshua had already given Malcolm many chances, yet he merely responded with poor actions without an ounce of remorse. Even when he was kicked out of Merchant City, he would still think of a way to come back to Merchant City to be against them, even lying to Thomas for it.
Thus, Luna and her children had already returned the favor to Malcolm. They did not owe him anything.
Now that Malcolm looked for her, it was up to her to help him or not. It was not necessary for her to help him. If she helped him, it was because of her relationship with Malcolm.
However, Luna did not want to have any sort of connection with Malcolm anymore. Having all those thoughts in her mind, she took a deep breath and put the phone to the side. She closed her eyes and was ready to go to sleep.
It would be a busy period for her in the next few days. She was about to travel with Joshua and Gwen, and there was no telling when they would return. Her studio was well underway, too, with Shannon, Zayne, and Arianna all capable of working on their own.
Nonetheless, she was the boss. Thus, before she left, she needed to arrange all of the work related matters for the next couple of months.
She took a deep breath and fell asleep.
Although Thomas had not left together with Riley and Yannie, she was starting to look forward to meeting with them in Saigen City one week later.
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2619 by desirenovel
Just as Luna had predicted, she was busy for the next few days. She went out early in the morning and came back late at night, traveling between the house and her studio. She did not even have the time to go to Landry Mansion and visit Gwen.
Luckily, there was still Bonnie. Since Bonnie was almost fully recovered, she could often go visit Gwen in the hospital and also take care of Rosalyn and Charles. Rosalyn had been urging Jim and Bonnie to get married, but no matter what she said, Jim and Bonnie did not bulge.
The night before Luna and Joshua left Merchant City, Rosalyn cooked dinner and invited Luna and Joshua over to eat.
“Luna.” Before Bonnie and Jim arrived, Rosalyn grabbed Luna‘s hand and complained, “No matter what I say, they won‘t listen. You are Bonnie‘s best friend, and Jim is willing to listen to you. Please persuade them for me. Your dad and I are getting old, and we‘d like to see them finally get together as a married couple.”
Luna pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment as she heard how worried Rosalyn was. Finally, she nodded. “Okay.”
Right at that moment, Jim came in with Bonnie and Harvey. Sean, who had just been discharged from the hospital and was helping Luke to settle the gang–related matters, came too.
Luna immediately stood up to greet them when they came. Nellie and Neil, on the other hand, dragged Joshua and Charles down from the study.
It was a joyous dinner, and this was the first time everyone in the Landry family came together to have dinner after so long. The atmosphere was warm and filled with mirth.
Jim and Sean had too much alcohol. Only Joshua was still slightly sober and chatted with Charles. After Luna and Bonnie tucked the children to bed, the first thing they saw when they came downstairs was how drunk the men were.
Both of them exchanged looks and called upon the new butler and maids to help bring the men back to their rooms. When she settled everyone, she dragged Bonnie to the garden for fresh air.
“Before you came, Mom told me to persuade you and my brother to have your wedding soon,” confessed Luna.
They sat on the bench in the garden. Luna felt the breeze wind and looked up at the moon in the clear sky. “What‘s your plan?”
Bonnie, too, sat on the bench and looked at the sky. She sighed. “Jim did ask me about this, but I don‘t feel like getting married now.”
She closed her eyes. “Isn‘t this as good a time as any?”
The last person she wanted to marry was Jason Lane. During that time, they were already making plans when everything went horribly wrong. After that, she started to have mixed feelings about marriage.
Although she knew Jim was not the same jerk as Jason, she was still afraid of such a
commitment.
“Okay.” Luna kept silent for a moment and said nothing. “I respect your decision. I had no plan to persuade you either.” Rosalyn was from the older generation, prioritizing marriage greatly. However, if Bonnie felt more relaxed when she was not married to Jim, then why should they get married? They just needed to be together and had each other—that was more than enough. “It‘s not that I can‘t get married either.” Bonnie opened her eyes and looked at Luna. “I made a bet with Jim. I bet that one day his memory would come back to him. When he recalled back his memory and remembered who is Shelly‘s parents, and after we send Shelly back to reunite with her family...we‘ll get married.”
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 2620 by desirenovel
Luna looked to the side and saw how serious Bonnie was. She wanted to say something but decided against it.
After a while, she extended her hand and grabbed Bonnie‘s hand lightly. “I hope our wishes will all come true.”
She hoped Jim would recall his memory and hoped Bonnie could accept the idea of marriage soon.
As for her... Luna did not dare hope that she would one day find her daughter.
“It will.” Bonnie curled up her lips and looked at Luna with a smile. “Have a safe trip tomorrow. Jim and I will take good care of the three children for you and Joshua. Don‘t worry, and have a nice trip with Gwen.”
Bonnie exhaled deeply when she mentioned Gwen. She looked up at the sky. “Hopefully, Gwen will recover soon.”
Luna, too, raised her head, shifting in her seat as she leaned on the bench. She quietly sat with Bonnie and looked at the sky. The two women stayed in the garden and chatted until the next morning.
At 10 a.m., Joshua carried the tired Luna to the airport. Gwen, who let her hair down and wore sunglasses and cap, was shocked to see Luna. She was surprised to see Joshua carrying her down from the car.
“Hey, I know how loving the two of you are, but this is a three–person trip! Can both of you not be like this before the trip starts?” Gwen commented.
It was too much for a single woman like her to see how loving the two of them were, was it
not?
Nonetheless...she did not think she was single anymore. She placed her hand at her heart and felt how it pumped.
Luke was here. His heart would forever beat in her chest. They would never be apart anymore, and all the gossip and rumors could no longer hurt their relationship. “She had chatted with Bonnie for the entire night and didn‘t sleep.” Joshua carried the drowsy Luna as they entered the airport. “Let‘s go.”
Gwen rolled her eyes helplessly. She quickly pulled her baggage and followed Joshua to check in. Luckily, they took the private plane to Saigen city this time, and a bed on the plane allowed Luna to get the sleep she needed. Otherwise, Gwen would have a strong reason to believe they would spend the first day in Saigen City in the hotel.
Alas, she underestimated how tired Luna was. Even after sleeping for several hours on the plane, she was still unconscious after they arrived at Saigen City. No matter what Gwen said, Luna could only mutter groggy responses and answer wrongly to every question. Gwen sighed helplessly. She placed her baggage in the room and changed her clothes. “You should rest in the hotel. I‘ll go walk around by myself.”
Saigen City was a different city from Merchant City and Banyan City. Although it was just
autumn in Banyan City, it was winter in Saigen City, and thus it was snowing. Gwen felt better when she saw the different historical buildings on the street.
Thus, she decided she should not waste the beautiful moment and went to take a walk by herself.
“Sorry...” Luna slept on the bed and looked at Gwen, who had already put on a while color plush jacket. She apologized, saying, “Bonnie and I were reminiscing about our past, and we lost track of time. I‘m sorry I can‘t go with you today...”
“There‘s nothing to be sorry about.” Gwen took out a fluffy hat with rabbit ears and wore it. “I don‘t mind. I‘m going to take up your time for a long period while Bonnie stays in Merchant City. She‘s more pitiful than me. It‘s good that you chatted with her and comforted her before we left!”
Luna burst out in laughter as she gazed at how energetic Gwen was. “I wanted to bring you here to cheer you up.”
