Ch. 2931..2940

Pursuing my ex-wife is not easy chapter 2921--“Don’t worry.”

Frowning, Joshua approached Luna and hugged her to ease her nerves. “The wedding is starting in less than three hours, so we’ll need to head there first. Once we settle things with Adrian, I’ll bring you to go look for Anne, alright?”

The doctor mentioned it was necessary to keep Luna in the dark about Anne’s death. Thus, he was not about to inform Luna about what happened to Anne yet.

“No.” She bit her lip and extended her arms, wrapping them around Joshua’s body. She feebly. said, “For some reason, I’m worried about her. I feel like I’ve forgotten something, and it’s related to her.”

She looked up. “Joshua, can you please bring me to her? I’ll only feel okay when I see her with my own eyes.

Joshua’s face looked terrible after hearing that. ‘Anne is…”

“I have a better idea.” After a moment of silence, he said, “I’ll send people to Anne’s house for protection. After we’re done at Adrian’s wedding, I’ll bring you to her right away.”

Frankly, Joshua did not know what to do with Luna’s current situation, but he knew he could never let her know that Anne was dead. He tried to use the wedding as an excuse to hold her off while he tried to contact Theo and everyone in Merchant City to see if Rachel or Rosalyn could help minimize the effect of Anne’s death on Luna.

“Why?” Luna looked at Joshua, unable to comprehend his thoughts. “Isn’t it easier if we just look for them?”

Luna did not understand why Joshua wanted to send people over to protect Anne and her family now only visiting them after the wedding.

“Because…” Joshua kept quiet for a while. “Because we don’t have enough time. I want to bring you to buy a gown and have your makeup. I’m sure you don’t want to show up at the wedding with an ugly look.”

Luna fell quiet after hearing that. She then looked down at herself-her outfit, to be exact.

At this moment, she was still wearing the clothes she was wearing when she came from Saigen City, and it was indeed inappropriate to attend the wedding in this attire even though she was attending Adrian’s wedding.

She took a deep breath and finally nodded to show she agreed with Joshua’s suggestion. Alright, we’ll go buy a gown now. I want to meet Anne beautifully after the wedding ends. And

She bit her lip and said with uncertainty, “Nothing will happen to them in this city right?” ‘Especially since they’ve lived in this city for so many years,’ she thought.

Joshua was stunned.

After a while, he nodded while suppressing the sorrow in his heart. “Yes. Nothing…nothing. bad is going to happen to them.”

“Okay!” Luna took a deep breath after hearing Joshua’s reassurance. She then grabbed his arm and said, “Let’s go.”

Joshua nodded and strode out of the hospital with her. While they were on the way to the clothing store, Luna looked outside the window and said, “I remember I left this city because Malcolm caught me. Look how long it’s been since then.”

Joshua responded softly. He was busy sending messages to Lucas to get him to contact Rosalyn and Rachel.

Suddenly, he received a message from Jude.

[I went to the hospital with Ms. Chance, John is missing, and so is Anne’s body. I went to their house and discovered their child was taken away, too.)

Pursuing my ex-wife is not easy chapter 2922--After reading the text message, Joshua’s brow furrowed vehemently. Theoretically speaking, John was either handling Anne’s funeral in the hospital or was at home comforting Sammie while taking the time to inform their relatives.

‘Why did John leave with Sammie, as well as Anne’s body?’ he thought to himself.

Jude sent another text message when Joshua did not reply. (What should we do?

[I think John is going to leave the city with Sammie, as well as Anne’s body. I’ve already sent people to search at the airport and bus station. I don’t think they can leave in such a short. period.]

Joshua replied, [Don’t do it.]

With a frown on his face, he nonchalantly added, [If John wants to leave with Anne’s body and Sammie, don’t stop him.]

Maybe it was a good choice to let John leave this city with Anne and Sammie. At least, Lunat would not be able to find Anne after John left, and it could stall her memory from recovering.

[Should I recall my men, then?] asked Jude.

Although Jude did not know why Joshua made this decision, he was willing to listen to him, especially when he knew Joshua had experienced more hardship than he did. He believed the way Joshua handled problems was different from regular people. He believed in Joshua’s ability.

Joshua frowned and looked at Luna, who was looking out the window with full attention. He exhaled softly and replied, [No. Let your men look for them. Once your men discover them, just watch over them until they reach their destination.]

Jude did not reply instantly.

After a while, he replied, [Okay.]

Joshua took a deep breath after getting a confirmation reply from Jude. He turned to the side. to look at Luna, all with a furrowed brow.

For the past few years, he had experienced and been through troubles of various types….but he did not know what to do with his wife who chose to temporarily lose her memory. It would be cruel to her if he straightforwardly told her Anne had passed away.

If he continued to hide it from her…

The most it would take was one week before her memory of Anne’s death would return, and once it did, the situation could be worse than if he told her the truth at this moment.

He sighed and rubbed his aching glabella. In this situation, he could only handle one thing at a time. His current plan was to bring Luna to the wedding, settle his score with Adrian and Jacqueline, try to figure out Anne’s death, and how to break the news to Luna.

At this moment, Luna looked back and saw Joshua looking very troubled.

“What’s wrong, Joshua?” She frowned and tried to soothe his glabella. “Are you worried about tonight’s wedding?”

Looking at Luna’s clear eyes, Joshua fell quiet for a while before lowering his head and pulling Luna into his arms. “Luna.”

“Yes?” Luna thought he was anxious about the wedding and thus quickly comforted him, “I believe in you. Everything can be settled at the wedding. There’s nothing you need to worry about”

Joshua felt even worse hearing that soft voice of hers. He embraced her tightly; so tight that he hoped he could push her into his body.

“Luna, if If I did something you think it’s unforgivable, would you forgive me?”

Pursuing my ex-wife is not easy chapter 2923--The scenery outside the window was a blur.

Startled, Luna looked at Joshua in confusion, and her lips stretched unnaturally. “Joshua, what are you talking about? How is it possible that you’d do anything I can’t forgive?”

Seven years ago, she mistakenly thought he had wronged her, something she just could not forgive.

After seven years, she finally knew the truth and that it was just a misunderstanding. The man she was looking at never did anything that would truly hurt her. Even if he did, it was not his intention.

Thus, Luna found it hard to imagine what Joshua could do to result in her not forgiving him.

Joshua paused when he saw Luna’s confused eyes. In the end, he could bear to tell Luna the truth and sighed. “What I mean is…we have a whole lifetime ahead of us. During these periods, would you forgive me… if I did something you deem unforgivable?”

Luna stopped. She took a deep breath and started to give Joshua’s question some serious thinking.

“Joshua.” She gave him a serious look. “If it is like what you said, you did something that I was unable to forgive you. Undoubtedly, I won’t be able to forgive you. It is undebatable.”

She curled her lips into a smile and extended her hand out to grab Joshua’s hand, “But…I’m not a fussy one, small matters won’t bother me. You haven’t done anything that I don’t think I can’t forgive you for now. I trust that it’ll never happen in the future too.”

Joshua was stunned. He sighed and pulled her into his arms to embrace her tightly.

While she was enjoying the warm temperature of Joshua’s body, she lamented, “Joshua, 1 hope after tonight, our lives will return to normalcy just peace. I envy Anne and John a lot, you know? The three of them live together peacefully without any turbulence going on in their lives. What a wonderful and happy way to live.

“Anne told me that John’s business is getting better. Perhaps a year or two from now, she’ll open a small plastic surgery hospital when Sammie goes to kindergarten. She wants to make girls like me, who were disfigured, pretty again… Oh, how I envy them.

“This year alone, you’ve expanded your business while many things happened in my family. But…I really envy when people can live their lives peacefully and quietly. I don’t want to be constantly worrying about any more ups and downs in my life.”

Her words pricked Joshua’s heart like needles, and his heart ached agonizingly.

He hugged his wife tightly and closed his eyes.

Luna truly treasured having Anne as her friend. Anne and John’s happy married life was something she looked up to.

What if she knew their happiness was ruined? How would she react?

What if she found out Anne’s death was related to her? What sort of reaction would she have?

Joshua sighed. He did not dare to think of the possibility.

Soon, the car arrived at the evening gown shop.

Joshua adjusted his emotion and brought Luna into the shop. When they were in the shop, Luna started to pick the gown she liked.

As she usually would, she would take a selfie in front of the mirror and send it into the chat after changing into every evening gown choice.

Bonnie was the first to reply.

[So pretty! It shows off your curve.]

[I’m not interested in these,] replied Rachel.

Yannie also joined the conversation.

[Wow! Luna looks good in everything!]

group

Luna tried on a few gowns and everyone was complimenting her for looking so beautiful in

those evening gowns.

Suddenly, Bonnie felt something was wrong.

[Why is Anne so quiet today?]

Pursuing my ex-wife is not easy chapter 2924--When Bonnie noticed Anne’s virtual absence, the others in the group chat also realized something was wrong.

(Yannie: I called Anne just now, but she didn’t answer. Is she busy?]

[Bonnie: Impossible. She’s not working, and Sammie is just an infant. Normally, she’s the first. one to reply in the group…]

[Rachel: Maybe she’s doing something. Don’t worry. What could go wrong when she’s in her house? Besides, Luna is in Banyan City too. She should know if something is wrong with Anne.]

It reminded Bonnie that Luna was in the same city as Anne. Thus, she quickly asked in the group chat.

[Bonnie: Hey, Luna. Anne isn’t replying to any messages. Is she with you?]

After changing into another evening gown, Luna left the fitting room and wanted to send the photo to the group chat again. This was when she saw the messages in the group chat. She paused and did not know what to reply.

In the end, she simply texted, [We’re not together. I think she’s busy with her stuff. I’m going to look for her after tonight’s wedding |

Bonnie thought Luna was acting weird, yet she did not say anything about it. She continued to chat with Luna for a while and asked Luna to send Anne her regards.

After that, Luna did not have the mood to continue trying out the evening gown. She looked in the mirror and saw the sapphire blue evening gown she was wearing.

Pleased with this piece, she walked out in the evening gown.

“Joshua” When she was outside, she looked at Joshua, who was sitting on the sofa, texting with a frown. “We still have some time. Can we go to Anne’s house?”

For some reason, she felt restless today. Knowing Anne had not replied to any calls or messages, her heart was greatly unsettled. She had a sinking, ominous feeling

She realized she could not wait until the wedding was over to go visit Anne and wanted to go at this moment. She had to go to Anne’s house to visit Anne and Sammie, and only then would she be at ease upon knowing they were alright.

Joshua was texting when Luna said that. He was silent for a moment before seconds later turning to look at the time, then at Luna.

“There’s not enough time. The wedding is about to begin in less than two hours, and you only have chosen your gown You haven’t done your hair and makeup yet. We need to set aside some traveling time too. It’s going to take up more time if we go over to Anne and John’s house, and we’ll be late if we go

Luna felt frustrated after hearing that She looked into the mirror at herself. ‘I don’t look that bad without setting my hair and makeup, do 17

In the past, Joshua never cared if she did her hair or put on makrup to go to any dinners. He always said she was beautiful enough to attract everyone’s attention even if she did not put on any makeup At this moment, however, he deliberately put time aside for her to style her hair

and put on makeup.

Though…

She frowned and touched her face. “Are you saying I’m old now?”

Her kids were seven years old, and she was reaching her thirties. Everyone always said women over 30 looked less pretty and youthful compared to when they were in their twenties.

Did Joshua insist on having her style her hair and have makeup to attend the wedding because he thought she was old?

Joshua was stunned. After a while, he understood what she meant and laughed.

“You think too much.”

He approached her and pressed down on her shoulder. “I just want you to be the most beautiful woman tonight. Don’t overthink it.”

Pursuing my ex-wife is not easy chapter 2925--What Joshua said did not bring any comfort to Luna at all. Instead, she felt even more irritated. For some reason, she felt like Joshua was hiding something from her.

Nonetheless, she knew him well enough to know she would never get it from him if he did not want to tell her. In the end, she sighed and followed Joshua to the car to get her hair styled and makeup.

For some reason, the stylist was extra thoughtful today. It took nearly two hours for Luna to get her hair and makeup done. When she was finished, Joshua had already contacted Rosalyn and told her about Luna’s situation.

As he heard sounds coming from his back, he looked back at where Luna was coming from. His eyes widened in surprise when he saw Luna.

It had been a long time since he saw Luna dressed up so beautifully. If he did not have to stall for time so Luna would forget about Anne, he would not insist on getting Luna all dolled up…

Anne came into his mind again when he looked at how beautiful Luna was, and at this thought, his feelings grew tumultuous.

Luna started to feel worried when she noticed the changes in Joshua’s emotions.

“Joshua.” She bit her lip and walked over carefully while lifting her evening gown. “Is something wrong? Or do you think I look ugly?”

When she looked into the mirror, she thought she was the most beautiful over the last few years. Thus, she did not understand the reaction she got from Joshua.

“It’s nothing. You look beautiful.” He tried to contain his real emotion, smiled, and grabbed her hand. “Let’s go. We’re going to be late.”

Luna pursed her lips and nodded silently while letting Joshua lead her to the car.

It was 8 p.m. at Starhill Hotel. Everyone from the upper class of Banyan City was looking forward to the wedding.

“Do you think Joshua is going to show up?”

“The groom insisted he’ll show up. Who knows if it is real or fake…”

“Joshua always makes a huge scene wherever he goes, but I don’t hear anyone saying Joshua is back. Is Adrian trying to fool us?”

“I don’t care. If Joshua doesn’t show up today, I’m going to do whatever I can to get my money back from Adrian and Joshua!”

Adrian, standing on the stage in a well-fitted suit, trembled. He bit his lip and gave Jacqueline a worried look. “Jacqueline, do you think Joshua and Luna will show up? If they don’t…”

The man in his fifties looked over at the people he owed money to who had attended his wedding, tears brimming in his eyes.

“Am I finished? I told you that we shouldn’t throw such an extravagant wedding. We have a bad reputation…”

“There’s nothing to panic about.” Jacqueline, wearing a white wedding dress, looked at the time and said coldly, “Joshua will show up.’

After that, she looked at her phone and sent a message to Willow.

[Send Luna the photo.]

Willow was still enjoying her moment daydreaming about being rich after collecting Vannessa’s debt. When she read Jacquline’s message, she sneered and sent Luna the photo where Anne was tied up.

She had prepared the photo in advance. Although Anne was dead, she still used a photo- editing app to include the current time in the photo.

Luna’s phone beeped when she opened the door to get out of the car. She turned around to get her phone when she heard the notification sound.

It was a message with a photo from an unknown number.

She furrowed her brows and opened the message-

Pursuing my ex-wife is not easy chapter 2926--In the photo, Anne’s face looked bruised. She was tied to the chair with a rough, thick hemp rope, and she looked to be in a dark and humid basement. There was rusted iron and moss from the corner of the photo.

There was a message along with the photo.

[Keep quiet about this. If you and Joshua do not attend the wedding now, Anne will die.]

Luna’s heart nearly leaped out of her chest the moment she saw the photo.

‘Anne… Who kidnapped her?!’ She bit her lip.

Subconsciously, she glanced at Joshua, who was on his phone not too far away from her. Her heart clenched.

Her hunch was right. Anne was in trouble! Joshua was acting weird for the entire time because of this!

Luna took a deep breath and replied to the message.

[Who are you? Why did you kidnap Anne? Where are you? I’m going there!]

Since the stranger made the request for her and Joshua to attend the wedding, she was sure the people who kidnapped Anne were trying to force Joshua to show up at the wedding.

[If you want Joshua to attend the wedding, you should take me-not Anne!]

Anne did nothing wrong. The only thing she did wrong was having Luna as her friend, the friend who kept finding herself in trouble!

Soon enough, she got a reply.

[Didn’t you read my message? What I want is for you and Joshua to attend the wedding together. Don’t try any tricks. If you dare to inform the police, say anything to anyone else, or do not follow my instructions, I’ll kill her immediately!]

Luna’s heart raced when she saw the terrible words. She grabbed her phone tightly and replied, [I’ll attend the wedding immediately. Don’t act rashly!]

No wonder Anne had been quiet and no one could get through to John! She finally understood why Joshua refused to let her go to look for Anne. He tried hard to stall time by asking her to doll up and went to the shop to choose an evening gown for the wedding.

It was because Anne was kidnapped! She believed Joshua did all of those because he knew about the kidnapping all along. He hid it from her because he was afraid she would do something hasty.

With those thoughts in her mind, she bit her lip. ‘I’m pretty sure Joshua has a plan. I should follow his plan and not cause more trouble for him.’

Thus, she suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and pretended nothing happened while walking toward Joshua. “Joshua? We should go in now.”

At that moment, Joshua was talking on the phone with Rosalyn about Luna’s current condition.

He stiffened when he heard Luna’s voice and quickly hung up. “Are you ready?”

“Yeah.” Luna curled her lips and forced a smile while lifting her evening gown. “The wedding is about to start. We should go in.”

Joshua put away his phone and took a deep breath. “Then, you have to get ready. This wedding is unlike

the ones we attended before.”

Luna nodded and responded, “I know.”

They needed to deal with two dangerous people tonight, which were Adrian and Jacqueline, as well as coming up with a plan to save Anne!

Joshua was slightly relieved to see Luna was in a better condition. He grabbed her hand and walked into the wedding venue together.

“Joshua Lynch!”

“Joshua Lynch is here!”

“Oh my god! He’s really here. I thought he wasn’t going to show up…”

As soon as they entered the venue, they were surrounded.

“Mr. Lynch, your father said you were the one who instigated him to borrow money from us. Can you please clear the air and tell us if you were the one who borrowed money from us?”

Pursuing my ex-wife is not easy chapter 2927--Luna was so shocked that she could not find any words when the people surrounded her and Joshua.

Before they arrived, Joshua had told her Adrian had secretly used his name to borrow a lot of money when they were not in Banyan City.

Yet, Luna did not think that nearly 80% of the guests who attended the wedding were people to whom Adrian owed money. Those who lent money to Adrian were almost everyone from the upper class from Banyan City!

The shocked Luna stared at the scene and grabbed Joshua’s hand tightly.

Joshua looked at the people who surrounded them indifferently and said, “Are all of you here to attend Adrian and Jacqueline’s wedding or here to collect your debt?”

It brought silence to the wedding.

Not long later, a female shouted out from the crowd, “What’s wrong with that? Why can we attend the wedding and also collect our debt at the same time?”

The others quickly adhered to her.

“That’s right! We’re here to attend the wedding and also collect our money. Is that wrong?”

“Yeah! A dutiful son is obliged to pay his father’s debts. And when Adrian came to borrow from us, he used your name!”

“If you won’t settle this today, Adrian isn’t going to get married!”

Despite the noisiness, Joshua curled his lips into a smile. “Everyone, I’ll give all of you an explanation regarding that. But…”

He looked up at Adrian, who was standing on the stage in his suit, as well as at Jacqueline in her white wedding dress. “Today is Adrian and Jacqueline’s day. It’s not right for me to steal the limelight away from them. We’re here to attend their wedding.”

The people around him were stunned. Although they were reluctant, they dispersed.

“Mr. Lynch, I hope you’re a man of your word!”

“We’ve recorded you mentioning you’ll give us an explanation!”

“If you run from this, we’ll lodge a police report!”

Luna furrowed her brow after hearing those. She knew it was normal for people to be selfish especially when money did not fall from the sky, but she remembered the upper-class people in Banyan City were mostly decent. It was odd how everyone was in a hurry and anxious to threaten Joshua to pay back the money Adrian owed.

‘What is going on?’ she thought.

“Adrian and Jacqueline are engaged with a newly established loan shark company in the city,” said Joshua, as though reading her mind, lowering his voice so only both of them could hear what he said. ” During this period, everyone who tried to collect their debts from Adrian was either beaten or harmed in another way. They hold grudges against him, yet they didn’t go against Adrian because they thought I have powerful influence here and that I’d be able to pay.”

Luna instantly understood after that. ‘No wonder everyone is going after Joshua as soon as we step inside here. I guess if Joshua isn’t going to help Adrian, those people are going to tear Adrian into pieces

at his own wedding! But…’

She was still worried about Anne. All she wanted was to get this wedding over and save Anne with

Joshua.

She frowned and asked softly, “What are you going to do?”

These people were here to make Adrian pay. Would it not be better to tell these people Joshua was not going to help Adrian and let these people settle it with Adrian themselves?

Pursuing my ex-wife is not easy chapter 2928 --“This wedding is going to be meaningless if I let them deal with Adrian directly.”

Joshua curled his lips into a smile after reading Luna’s mind. He extended his hand out to rub her head. ” Let’s go. It’s been over a year since we last met my father.”

Luna looked at him confusingly as she could not tell what Joshua had in his plan. Nonetheless, it was not the right time for her to ask about it.

She frowned and walked with Joshua toward the stage.

“I told you he’s going to be here.” Jacqueline looked at Luna and Joshua coldly from the middle of the stage. Hatred flashed in her eyes. “They had to come.

If Luna cared about her friend’s life, she definitely would show up.

“Jacqueline, you’re amazing!” Adrian got excited when he saw Joshua and Luna attending the wedding.” They’re here just like you said! You’re amazing!”

Jacqueline smiled. “I’m not that amazing, but I know their weaknesses.”

Luna and Joshua were hypocrites, the type of people who valued friendship and loyalty as everyone said. So, Jacqueline had sent people to kidnap Anne to force and threaten Luna and Joshua to attend the wedding.

A trace of coldness appeared in her eyes. Everyone thought Joshua and Luna valued friendship and loyalty…but only she knew how fake they were.

Joshua kept her sister, Fiona, beside him because her bone marrow was a match with his son’s. He promised Fiona that he would marry her and be with her after she donated her bone marrow to his son.

That did not happen. As it turned out, Joshua and Luna worked together and killed Fiona after she donated her bone marrow to their son!

Jacqueline clenched her fists tightly beside her body when she thought about the misery her sister suffered. A sister she never met before.

More than a year ago, she was able to track down her sister from overseas. She thought she could finally reunite with her long–lost sister and recompense for the sin she did by losing her sister when she was young.

When she reached Banyan City, however, the only news she got was knowing her sister was dead because of Joshua and Luna. She sent people to search for her sister’s corpse for a long time, but they came up empty–handed.

Her sister was dead, and her body was nowhere to be found.

Luna and Joshua lived happily ever after, and Luna even gave birth to another child this year. They were able to live happily, but what about her sister?

Was death all that was meant for her sister?

Thus, Jacqueline decided to take things into her hands and created a plan for revenge. She waited for Joshua and Luna to come back to Banyan City so she could execute her plan.

However, she did not expect that Luna and Joshua would not have plans to return to Banyan City. They even moved their children to live in Merchant City.

In despair, she read that Adrian had broken up with Celia.

To exact revenge for her sister, she sacrificed herself and got together with Adrian, a useless middle- aged man.

Finally…

Finally, Joshua and Luna showed up on the day she was to be married to Adrian!

Her enemy! She finally saw them in person!

Pursuing my ex-wife is not easy chapter 2929 --about:blank

sua and Luna were standing in front of the stage.

He curled his lips and smiled ambiguously. “It’s been a while.”

about:blank

“Yes, it has been.” Adrian quickly rushed down from the stage and shook Joshua’s hand excitedly when he saw Joshua and Luna standing in front of the stage. “You two are really here! Aunt Jacqueline said you were going to be here, but I find it hard to believe…but she’s right! You still care about me!”

Joshua looked at Adrian. When Adrian said ‘Aunt Jacqueline’, he frowned.

According to their age, Jacqueline and Joshua should be around the same age.

‘He’s marrying someone around my age and expects me to address her as my aunt… He squinted.

Although he was not happy, he still politely looked at Jacqueline. “Ms. Grace.”

Jacqueline curled up her lips and smiled. “Mr. Lynch, we finally meet.”

She had worked so hard over the year for this day. Ever since she knew Joshua and Luna were the ones

who killed Fiona, she toiled rigorously to meet the nasty couple. Finally, that day arrived!

After that, she looked at Luna and acted surprised. “Mrs. Lynch is as beautiful as how I imagined it.”

She had read through Luna’s information and photo before, but she did not expect to see Luna looking more stunningly in person. It was not hard to understand why her sister lost to Luna.

However…

Jacqueline squinted, and a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes.

It was inappropriate and wrong of Luna and Joshua to kill Fiona after they had gotten Fiona’s bone

marrow.

about:blank

“Are you saying you have gone through my photo or information before?” Luna asked with a raised eyebrow.

Jacqueline smiled and turned to grab Adrian’s arm. “Adrian and I are getting married. You are her daughter-in-law, so it’s only natural for me to see your photo before.”

She smiled and looked at Adrian. “Isn’t that right?”

Adrian was still immersed in the excitement of Joshua coming to his wedding and did not react immediately. After a while, he nodded sluggishly. “Yes, yes. I’ve shown both of your photos to Jacqueline before! She’s really looking forward to being part of the family. We’re going to get along as a family in the future!”

“Get along?” Joshua curled his lip and walked up the stage with Luna. “I’m afraid there won’t be any chance for that.”

As he said that, he took away the mic from the emcee.

Luna and he walked to the center of the stage. He looked at the guests with his deep, dark eyes. “Hello, everyone. You were asking if I’d help Adrian to pay back the money he owed all of you. I said I’d deal with

it.”

The crowd got excited.

“That’s right!”

“Are you going to pay us back now?”

“How are you going to pay? I’m all ears.”

“Let’s sign a contract!”

Comments were everywhere.

However, Joshua merely smiled indifferently. “I said I’ll explain the situation, but I never said I’m going to pay for him. I hereby inform all of you that I will not be liable for any debts that Adrian Lynch owes…”

As he said that, he looked at Adrian and Jacqueline.

“The reason why I come back today is to cut ties with Mr. Adrian Lynch.”

Pursuing my ex-wife is not easy chapter 2930--What Joshua said created a ripple effect like when a stone got thrown into a peaceful lake. An uproar appeared among the crowd.

about:blank

Some were worried Joshua was really serious about not helping with Adrian’s debt and they needed to go after Adrian. Some were guessing that something happened between Joshua and Adrian. Some even thought Joshua deliberately put on a show and lied about cutting ties with Adrian because he did not want to help with Adrian’s debt.

All kinds of assumptions and guesses appeared.

about:blank

Luna stood beside Joshua and grabbed his hand tightly. She knew to the others, Joshua looked powerful and mighty but he actually had a soft heart too.

He yearned for family bonding. He yearned for Adrian to love and care for him as every normal father would.

All these years, he had been trying to bear with Adrian no matter how Adrian hurt him over and over again. Otherwise, it just did not make sense that the only one in jail was Michael after Granny Lynch passed away when Adrian was also one of the masterminds.

Subconsciously, he wanted to give Adrian a chance to turn over a new leaf. Yet, this expectation was shattered into pieces after he found out the real reason for his mother’s death when he was in Saigen City.

Cutting ties with Adrian in the public was the same as revealing the real reason behind Rianna’s death to the public. It required determination and courage.

Luna believed Joshua was determined and firm. Thus, she believed she should stand firmly beside him and go through everything together with him at this moment.

“Cut ties with me?” The smile on Adrian’s face froze.

He looked at Joshua shockingly and he just could not believe his own eyes. “Joshua. I’m marrying Jacqueline today! What nonsense are you talking about?”

about:blank

It also caught Jacqueline by surprise having to hear Joshua was cutting ties with Adrian as soon as he was back in the city. She panicked, “That’s right, Joshua. I mean you came back after getting our invitation. So you should be like the others, enjoy the wedding and also give us your blessing for getting married together. Why are you talking about this now?”

“That’s right! You’re ruining our day!” Adrian talked confidently when Jacqueline was on his side.

A man in his fifties was actually standing behind a woman in her twenties. He grabbed her sleeves and cocked up his head like a kid.

“It’s my wedding today. We can talk after the wedding. So let’s find a time to sit down together to talk after the wedding, alright?”

“There’s nothing I want to talk to you about.” Joshua curled his lips and gave Adrina a cold look.

Later he looked at the guests again. “You probably know that I don’t have a mother growing up with me. Mr. Adrian Lynch had told everyone that she died during labor.”

“I never know what it was like to have a mother growing up with me. Nor did I dare to ask about my mother. Every time i asked for my mother, Mr. Adrian Lynch would scold me and hit me. He said I’m a jinx. If my mother did not need to give birth to me, she won’t have to die.”

“For the last thirty years of my life, I always thought my mother died because of me. I lived in fear and

never dared to cry or fuss like the other kids. I didn’t dare to say I want my mother because I think I was a

sinner.”

“Until…”

He looked to the side and gave Adrian a cold glare, “Until I found the real reason that my mother’s death has nothing to do with me.”
