Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 41

When Lucas entered with coffee, Joshua was still valiantly battling over the computer.

Looking at the coding on the computer screen, Lucas was baffled.

He placed the coffee on the table. “Sir, you have not taken matters into your own hands for many years. “

Joshua nodded and lifted the cup of coffee. He downed it all in one go.

He has never been challenged like this for so many years. He also has not been so angry for many years already!

Joshua put down the empty cup and continued going at it on the keyboard!

The first layer, second layer...by the fifth layer of the firewall, Nigel was sweating profusely. He knew that his opponent was a skilled hacker, but he did not expect them to be so great at it!

Nigel was always proud of his hacking skills, but facing this opponent, he could barely defend himself!

Beep, beep, beep!

The computer was making a piercing sound.

The system warned that not only did the opponent manage to get Nigel's IP address, he even wanted to hack into his camera and recording devices!

The opponent wanted to expose him!

Nigel wiped the sweat away from his forehead. Right before the computer was hacked, he reformatted the entire computer.

When the computer was fully reformatted, he immediately cut off the power and the internet signal in his room.

Joshua caught onto nothing.

The message read that the other party gave up defending at the very last minute and reformatted their computer.

It was equivalent to wiping out all the documents and contents in the computer.

Bang!

Joshua's eyes turned sharp. They were filled with inexpressible fury!

Almost. He almost caught the other party red— handed! At that moment, in a patient's ward across the ocean, Nigel was not in any better condition.

All of his data and information on his computer were all gone. He could do nothing about it.

He laid on a pillow by the head of the bed and panted heavily.

It looked like his Daddy was no amateur. He could have such an amazing hacker under him!

He should not have underestimated him just by listening to Neil.

“Nigel.“ Perhaps the computer's blaring sounds were too loud a moment ago. A blonde nurse entered

and inquired gently, “Are you alright?“

Nigel turned to look out of the window. It was a sunny day. He spoke in fluent German to the nurse, “ I want to take a walk. My mother would bring me to a cafe two streets down. Can you bring me there?“

The nurse shook her head. “You can't go out in your current situation. Mr. Quinn has said so.“

Nigel looked at the nurse with his bright, clear eyes. “ I want to.“ His eyes were filled with seriousness and determination.

The nurse hesitated for a while. She could not resist his innocent huge eyes.

“Only this once.“

“Thank you.“ Nigel thanked the nurse rather shyly. He took his laptop and hard drive and followed the nurse out.

The air outside was great. The sun was shining brightly too.

Nigel sat on a wheelchair, looking at the various people passing by and the vibrant scenery everywhere. He felt a little miserable.

He has always objected to his Mommy going back home to find that man. He objected to her doing things that made her unhappy just to save him.

Before she left, he had even once said that he would rather die than see her suffer.

However...

He looked at the bright sunny day.

He was only five. How could he not want to live?

Soon after, the nurse brought him to the cafe. He ordered a glass of lemon juice. Nigel sat on the chair and opened his laptop.

Although it has been reformatted, the moment he opened the laptop, there was still a document left.

He opened the document and all he saw was a message.

(Don't let me find you. Joshua Lynch.]

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 42

Just because Joshua could not locate him, he resorted to using threats?

Nigel smiled lightly. He inserted his hard disk into the laptop, then sent Joshua an anonymous email.

Joshua received an email. There was nothing in it but a video.

In that video, Aura was sitting in front of the computer with huge sunglasses. She was looking at the coding on the computer screen, furrowing her brows.

Soon after, she seemed to have thought of something and started typing furiously on the keyboard, decoding.

“Uh...“ Lucas looked at the computer screen in shock. “Sir, the hacker just now was Ms. Gibson?“

“It's not her.“ Joshua lifted the cup of coffee and took a sip. “She only has basic computer skills. Also, the things that she typed were not the correct decoding method. I was dealing with a skilled hacker. It can't be her.“

Lucas nodded along, even though he did not quite understand.

“Let's head to Aura's house.“ Joshua put down the cup of coffee, stood up, and headed out of his office.

Lucas was stunned and he chased after Joshua. “But, sir. Didn't you just say that you did not go up against Ms. Gibson just now? Why do you want to go to her house then?“

Joshua strode to the elevator. “If I'm not wrong, guessing from the video, Aura must have wanted to act cool or it was a recording of some surveillance, but this video was never published online.“

Lucas said in realization, “You mean to say that they hacked into Ms. Gibson's computer?“

“Not only that.“ Joshua looked at the elevator door closing. His eyes darkened. “That person that sent the video over is hinting at something. This matter might have something to do with Aura.“

Lucas nodded. “You, Sir, are far-sighted.“

“Get Luna over. We'll head there together.“ Joshua rubbed the middle of his brows and said flatly.

The other victim of the incident that day was her. He owed her an explanation.

Aura Gibson's house.

Aura was in silk pajamas. She was drinking tea while looking at  the computer  screen with her manager.

On the screen, many spammers were insulting Luna.

(You b*tch. You're just a lowly servant. Do you think you're worthy of Mr. Lynch?]

(How disgusting. Mistresses should be struck by lightning ! Those that steal other people's boyfriends should be dead!]

(So here's the problem. Does Joshua Lynch truly love Aura? After such an incident, he should fire the maid!

“ ..This comment.“ Aura pointed at the comment about Joshua firing Luna. “Get me a hundred more comments on this. No. A thousand. No. Ten thousand! “

Aura slammed her credit card on the table. “I have the money! Stupid lowly maid. How dare she fight with me! “

Aura wanted Luna to experience the wrath of online bullying. What would happen if she offended her!

Her manager immediately picked up her phone and looked at Aura, trying to please her. “Ms. Aura, do you want one thousand or ten thousand comments?“

“Ten thousand! “ Aura waved her hands smugly. “We have to do it viciously! Beat her down so she could never get back up! “

Her manager nodded and was just about to contact the spammers' syndicate when the doorbell rang.

“The delivery sure is quick! “ Aura raised her brows. To celebrate, she ordered a huge meal.

“I'll go get it!“ Aura's manager got up and rushed to open the door. What she saw outside made her bewildered.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 43

“M-Mr. Lynch! “

The manager looked at the man with an overpowering aura. Her voice started to tremble.

She deliberately spoke louder to warn Aura inside, but Aura was so engrossed in the internet news she barely heard her.

“Aura is in, right?“ Joshua swept a cold glance at the manager and entered the house.

Behind him, Luna was quietly looking at the studio apartment in front of her. She was feeling extremely emotional.

“Luna, thank you for buying me this apartment. I love it!“

“You're the best! I thought you would forget about me after marrying! “

“Luna...“

The scene of Aura running around the apartment appeared on her mind. She never thought that after six years, Aura would still stay there.

Back then, when Luna just married Joshua, because she missed Aura a lot, she bought Aura this apartment with the money she earned from designing. She hoped that Aura could come to Banyan City to accompany her.

What she got in return was Aura's unbridled solicitation and deception.

“Luna, let's go, “ Lucas said, which pulled Luna back to reality.

She pursed her lips and followed Joshua into the apartment.

“Hold up! “ The manager could recognize Luna. This was the woman that went shopping with Joshua! Her face was too perfect. It was hard not to recognize her!

The manager raised her hand to stop her. “You cannot enter.“

Luna raised her brows. “Why?“

“As a maid, you should be aware that Mr. Lynch is Aura's fiance. Aura is still angry at today's incident. Mr. Lynch must be here to cheer her up. You being here will only upset Aura.“

Luna smiled. “Since you think that Mr. Lynch is here to cheer Aura up, how sure are you that Mr. Lynch did not get me over to apologize to Aura?“

“You're not that kind-hearted of a person that would come to apologize! “

The manager blocked Luna from entering. “Don't think that I don't know you have wanted to break Mr. Lynch and Aura apart from the start! “

Lucas furrowed his brows and was about to join in the argument. However, the moment he lifted his head, he saw Joshua standing there looking at Luna as if he was anticipating what was about to happen next.

Naturally, Lucas did not dare say anything. He swallowed his words back down.

“Since you said I deliberately want to break Mr. Lynch and Ms. Gibson up, “ Luna smiled. “Now that you're blocking me from entering, does that mean I have succeeded in doing so? I see that Ms. Gibson is not that charming after all.“

The manager glared fiercely at Luna. “Nonsense! You can barely compete with Aura! “

“Since I could barely compete with Aura, how could I possibly destroy their relationship? You're blocking me from entering. What are you so afraid of?“

The manager was baffled by her words. She did not know what to say at that instant.

While she was in a daze, Aura went around her and entered.

When the manager could think of something to say, Luna had already followed Joshua into Aura's room.

“Is that my feast?“

Upon hearing the door close outside, Aura put down her mouse. Before she could turn around, she heard her manager yell, “Aura, Mr. Lynch is here! “

Joshua is here!

Aura panicked. She looked at the computer screen in front of her. It was all the evidence of her setting Luna up! It was too late to delete them at that moment!

The sounds of footsteps were getting closer.

Under panic, Aura forcefully shut the computer down.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 44

The computer barely just shut down when Joshua appeared by the door.

“Joshua.“ Aura awkwardly stood up and smiled unnaturally. She subconsciously placed herself in front of the computer, blocking them from Joshua.

“Why would you come here suddenly?“

Joshua furrowed his brows lightly. He looked at Lucas. “Turn on the computer.“

Aura tried to stop Lucas. She smiled at Joshua. “Why are you trying to look into my computer?“

Then, she pretended to calmly instruct her manager, “Why don't you bring the guest downstairs and make some tea? “ When she said that, her tone was trembling a little already.

Joshua, who was standing by the door, was indifferent. “There is no need for tea. If you don't want Lucas to turn on your computer, you'll do it yourself.“

Aura clenched her fists tightly. He came too suddenly. She did not have time to prepare at all!

Her computer was not only filled with her conversation with the spammers but also the photographs that were taken of Joshua and Luna shopping!

If Joshua saw all these, the consequences would be bad!

“Could Ms. Gibson be hiding something in her computer?“

At that moment, an aloof woman's voice rang through. Aura was stunned.

She looked up and saw Luna standing next to Joshua. Luna the maid who was insulted and bullied online at her instructions!

Why was she here?

Although Aura created the rumor of Joshua and Luna the maid being together, Aura knew better than anyone that Joshua had only Luna Gibson in his heart!

He would not care about Luna the maid, so why did he bring her over?

A bad feeling washed over Aura.

“Lucas, “ Joshua instructed frigidly once more.

Lucas went around Aura and turned on the computer. “Sir, I have found something.“

Joshua swept a glance at Aura and walked over.

Just as he expected. The computer was filled with information and documents regarding the planning of the incident that morning.

“Heh.“ Joshua sneered. The hostility he released from his body was enough to freeze the entire air in the room.

Aura's face has lost all of its colors.

Luna, standing by the door, squinted her eyes. She was still taking care of Nellie at home when Lucas called her over, saying that Joshua wanted to bring her to Aura's place.

When she came here, she still thought that the crazy man wanted her to apologize to Aura.

She did not expect that he would come to Aura's house to expose her to her crimes.

Luna knew that Joshua would find out sooner or later about Aura's schemes, but she never thought that he would find out about it so soon.

It did not even take a day, Joshua has already deduced the entire incident. He even appeared in Aura's house out of the blue to gather evidence.

This man is much smarter than she gave him credit for.

After looking at the documents, Joshua calmly turned around and sat on a chair. He crossed his legs

gracefully. He looked at Aura coldly. “Please explain.“

Explain...

Aura bit her lips and suddenly thought of something. She stood by the door and called her manager in.

Slap!

Aura slapped her manager brutally. Her manager fell to the ground.

“What the hell are you doing?“

Aura glared at her manager angrily. “I told you to work from home, yet you did all these things behind my back? When I saw the news today, I knew it was fake for sure. I told you to deal with it! Turns out you were the mastermind behind it ! How could you do this to me! "

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 45

The manager was baffled by the slap.

She crouched on the floor and looked at Aura

blankly. “Aura, you were the one that told me to do it

Why was it all her fault at that moment?

“Since when have I told you to do such things?“

Aura slapped her manager another time. “I told you not to make a huge fuss of this. Don't do meaningless things like this, yet you refuse to listen! “

Then, Aura looked at Joshua with her eyes filled with tears. “Joshua, Luna, I'm sorry that I did not take care of my manager. You can hate me all you want. I will accept it.“

She wiped off her tears. “Thank you. If you did not come in time, I wouldn't have known that she was using my computer to do such things! “

Luna could not help but sneer at her exceptional acting skills.

Joshua also slightly furrowed his brows. “Didn't you notice one bit that she was using your computer to do such things?“

“Of course, “ Aura said looking aggrieved, “You should know that I 'm not tech savvy. The computer is just a device for me to receive mail. I don't know how to do anything else with it.“

“Joshua, don't worry.“ Aura took a deep breath and looked at Joshua sincerely, “I will get the company to fire my manager.“

Upon hearing that Aura was firing her, the manager got up, pointed at Aura, and rebuked, “You unappreciative b*tch! I was the one that made you who you are today! You're firing me because of this? Since when was it never your idea? Every single headline was your idea! Now you're blaming it all on me?“

Then, she turned to look at Joshua. “Mr. Lynch. I really did not do it!“

“If it was not you, who was it then? Me?“

Aura kicked the manager and she fell down to the ground once more.

Then, Aura reached out to tug on Joshua's sleeve. “ Joshua, we have been together for so many years.

You should know how I am. I have never wanted to put you under the spotlight due to my work, I don't need this to make news...“

She thought that her lies were perfect, but in Luna's eyes, it was filled with flaws.

For example, Luna has the transaction records Neil sent to her. The transaction records clearly stated that the money came from Aura's personal bank account.

At that thought, Luna smiled and walked over. She helped the manager up. “I have a question.“

The manager looked at her.

“Do you know Ms. Gibson's bank account passcode?“

The manager was stunned. She thought that Luna was about to blame her for embezzling Aura's money. She shook her head furiously.

“Then, that's good.“

Luna turned to look at Joshua. “Mr. Lynch, you could go and check the transaction records. See who was the one that transferred the money to the spammers ' syndicate. If it was the management company or the manager's account, it must be done by the manager, but if it was from Ms. Gibson's personal account...“

She smiled faintly, “Then, even if Ms. Gibson is not the main culprit, she at least knew about it.“

Joshua shrugged off Aura's hand. He said with an icy expression. “Lucas.“

“On it!“

Lucas immediately pushed the door open and left. While Joshua was not looking, Aura glared fiercely at Luna.

This woman was clearly trying to cause trouble! She had to destroy her sooner or later!

However, at that moment, the most important thing was to deal with the bank account matter.

At that thought, Aura aggrievedly wiped her tears. “ Joshua. Actually, before you came I was arguing with my manager.“

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 46

“The reason we were arguing was that she secretly stole my bank account passcode and used my money.“

Then, Aura lowered her head. Her voice was filled with aggrievance. “I did not want to tell you at first. This is too embarrassing. I was just afraid that she did not have enough money, so I gave her my passcode. I did not know that she would steal so much from me...“

After a while, Aura bit her lips. “Yet Luna wants to use this method to decide whether I knew about this or not, I feel wronged. I truly do not know anything! I was only being a kind person letting my manager use my money and my computer, yet I got dragged down as well.“

“Nonsense !“ Her manager bit her lips and retorted, “ I do not know your passcode! “

Aura mocked. “You dare admit that you know about it? Using my money without asking is considered theft. You could go to court for this! “

Her manager could not explain herself.

Luna pursed her lips. “No matter what, Ms. Gibson, you are innocent, right? Actually, you don't have to anxiously try to clear your name yet. Because from the way Mr. Lynch likes you, even if you were the

one who did it, he won't do anything to you.“ “I did not do it! I know nothing about this! “

Aura gritted her teeth hard. “This had nothing to do with me, why should I admit to it!“

The two of them were in a heated argument.

Joshua rubbed the middle of his brows, sitting on the sofa by the side.

“Luna.“ Joshua said coldly, “Stop talking.“

At his words, Luna, who was about to go all out, hesitated.

After a while, she smiled self-deprecatingly. “Okay.

I'll stop.“

In the end, Aura was still the one he loved the most. No matter what she did, he could forgive her. Even if Aura got someone to secretly take photos of them shopping, or got someone to spread rumors about them causing her to be insulted by millions of people.

At that moment, she was only just arguing with Aura, but he asked her to shut up.

Although she was the one who got scolded, she was only a lowly maid with no reputation after all, while he was the President of the Lynch Group.

This incident caused him more harm compared to her, but he was not angry at all. He even forbade her to fight with Aura.

If this was not true love, then what was?

Back then, this was how she lost to Aura, was it not? The favored were always emboldened.

The atmosphere in the living room became quite suffocating.

After a long while, the door to the apartment was open. Lucas entered with a folder. He looked at Joshua and hesitated.

Aura, by the side, slapped her manager once more. “ Are you happy now? Using my account to do bad things, I can never clear my name now! "

Ignoring the women, Joshua furrowed his brows and took over the folder from Lucas. “So?"

“I got the records." Lucas bit his lips and glanced at Joshua swiftly, then at Aura. “The records showed that the account that transferred money to the spammers' syndicate belongs to...the company of Ms. Gibson's manager."

Everyone was stunned at those words.

Luna furrowed her brows. She had a complicated look.

This was not right. The records that Neil sent to her clearly stated that it was Aura's personal bank account! How did it suddenly become the company's account?

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 47

This did not only shock Luna. Aura was stunned too.

What happened? She was the one that transferred the money to the spammers' syndicate from her account. Why did it suddenly become the company's account?

However, that was not the time to think about it.

Aura collected her emotions. She turned around and slapped the manager brutally once more. “Thank goodness you still have a guilty conscience! Luckily you used the company's account. If not, I would not be able to clear my name! “

After going through all this, the manager finally understood Aura's intention. She could only helplessly play along. “How could I use your private account for such things...“

Aura smugly pursed her lips. She turned to look at Luna. “Can this proof my innocence now?“

Luna furrowed her brows and looked at Aura. Where did it go wrong? Neil would never have given her false records.

She slowly looked at Joshua by the side.

If it was not Neil, then it must be Joshua. He deliberately instructed Lucas to say that the transactions were made by the company.

All this was just to clear Aura's name!

“Since we have already cleared things up.“ Joshua looked at the manager coldly, with no emotions in his eyes. “Get the spammers' syndicate to stop what they are doing.“

The manager and Aura looked at each other.

She slowly picked Aura's spare phone from the table and dialed the spammers' syndicate.

“Stop all the online activity.“

“Why?“ The spammers were unhappy. “We have not met Ms. Gibson's demands, right?“

Upon hearing them mentioning Ms. Gibson, the manager immediately covered the earpiece of the phone, afraid that the others would be able to hear. “ Just do what I say! Stop asking so many questions! “

Then, she immediately hung up. She placed the phone back. “Mr. Lynch. Everything is done.“

“Hmm.“

Joshua calmly swept a glance at the phone on the table.

Afraid that he would be suspicious, Aura immediately blocked the phone. “Joshua, don't worry. I will report this to the management. I will fire my irresponsible manager! “

“She's not irresponsible. She's being way too responsible.“

Luna understood the conversation between the both of them. She sneered in her heart.

Her guess was correct. How could Joshua so kind- heartedly bring her along to expose Aura? He was just trying to clear Aura's name.

He deliberately brought her to Aura's house, pretending to expose her, but in the end, his intention was just to show her how much he loved Aura.

This was completely unnecessary.

Even if Aura boldly admitted that this was her doing, Luna was just a maid. She could not do anything, yet Joshua wanted to put on an act to disgust her.

As expected. These two were still the same as six years before, arrogant, aloof, and a hypocrite.

Luna turned to look at the time. “Mr. Lynch, Ms. Gibson. Nellie had her nap when I came here. It's almost time for her to wake up. I won't stay long. Please excuse me."

Then, she did not bother to look at both of them and left immediately.

Luna left. Aura looked at her back with some smugness on her face.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 48

Although she did not know why the records would show the company's account instead of hers, no matter what, she has won!

Luna was just a lowly maid. How dare she try to go up against her? She clearly overestimated her abilities!

“Aura, “ Joshua said in a low voice, which brought Aura back to the moment.

She dimmed the arrogance in her eyes and looked at Joshua obediently. Her voice sounded gentle and humble. “Joshua, what is it?“

Joshua was aloof toward her enthusiasm.

After a while, he looked at her. “I do not wish for this to happen again. You'd better watch it.“

Then, he strode and left. Behind him, Lucas looked at Aura closely before turning around and following after Joshua.

“Lucas. “ Back in the car, Joshua was leaning in the backseat. His long, slender fingers were gently rubbing the middle of his brows.

“How long have you been working for me?“

Lucas hesitated for a while. He smiled and said while starting the car, “Sir, about six years already.“

“Hmm.“ Joshua leaned back and closed his eyes. “I remember that you have a girlfriend, right?“

“Yes.“ At the mention of his girlfriend, Lucas has much to say about her. “We were university mates. We have been together for almost eight years already. We recently started talking about marriage.“

“In that case, she should not be your girlfriend but your fiancée.“

Then, Jason smiled coldly and said, “So, does your fiancée know...that you like Aura so much?“

Screech!

Lucas almost swerved the car sideways at Joshua's words.

In a state of shock, Lucas stopped the car by the side of the road. He looked at Joshua from the rearview mirror with a pale look. “Sir, I...“

“Was it really the company that transferred the money to the spammers' syndicate?“

Joshua did not even open his eyes. His voice was light, but it landed heavily on Lucas.

“I'm sorry.“ Lucas gritted his teeth. He knew that he would not be able to hide this from Joshua. He lowered his head guiltily. “Please let me explain.“

Joshua opened his eyes and looked at Lucas in the eyes sharply. That look made Lucas's heart tremble with fear.

He took a deep breath and looked at Joshua. “I was helping Ms. Gibson because I pity her.“

“You pity her?“

“Ms. Gibson is your fiancée.“ Lucas sighed. “If it were not for desperation, why would she, your fiancée, be so apprehensive toward a maid? She even had to spread rumors to get rid of the maid?“

Joshua looked at Lucas in the rearview mirror and smiled aloofly. “She is being paranoid, yet she still wants to blame others."

“Sir, you do not give her enough sense of security. "

Facing his cold glares, Lucas braced himself and continued, “Also, Sir, do you not realize? Ever since Ms. Nellie has returned to Blue Bay Villa and Luna started taking care of her, your attitude towards Ms. Gibson has made a one-hundred-eighty degree turn.

“Sometimes, I even feel that your treatment toward Luna, a maid that you have only known not long ago, is much better compared to how you treat Aura, your fiancée."

Then, he hesitated. “Sir, don't you think that you are a little too nice to Luna? None of the other maids in Blue Bay Villa has ever been treated this way."

Joshua raised his eyebrows. “Is that so?"

 

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 49

“Yes.“ Lucas nodded.

“You have been with Ms. Gibson for so many years, yet you have never bought clothes for her once. But, today, you especially picked two sets of clothes to give to Luna.

“Last time, no servants in the house would dare to defy you. Those that did would have been fired.

However, Luna has contradicted you so many times, yet you are not mad at her. Neither did you fire her. Also...“

“Enough.“ Joshua coldly pursed his lips. He interrupted Lucas. “I will pay attention to the distance between her and me in the future.“

Then, Joshua closed his eyes and lazily leaned back.

“Lucas. This is the first mistake you've made after working for me for so many years. I 'll forgive you for now, but it won't happen again.“

Lucas was delighted. “Are you going to pursue this matter?“

He meant Aura. Joshua smiled coldly. “I have my plans.“

The report of the Ferris Wheel incident was not out yet. He could not determine if the incident has to do with Aura or not, but the incident that morning would not be forgotten so easily.

“But...“ Lucas wanted to say something else when Joshua suddenly opened his eyes.

The temperature in the car dropped to sub-zero. Lucas immediately shut up and started the car.

Ever since coming back from Aura's apartment, Luna has been unhappy. Even Nellie could see that she was not in a good mood.

“Aunty, could you make me some pastries? You'll feel better eating pastries! “

Nellie was hugging her stuffed animal in her arms in the living room. She looked at Luna with her round eyes, her tone cautious.

Luna gently sighed and patted Nellie on the head. “ I'll go and make some for you now.“

Then, she went to the kitchen and got busy. Work would make her forget all about her emotions.

Nellie was lying on the sofa looking at Luna working while sending messages to her brothers.

Nellie: (Mommy is in a bad mood. Who did it?] Neil: (Most probably Nigel.]

Nellie: (Why?]

Neil: (Because Nigel became a spammer and created a program to scold Mommy! ]

Nellie: (How horrible!] Nigel: (...]

Nellie: (Nigel, don't worry, hand it to me. I'll cheer Mommy up! ]

Then, Nellie kept her phone. She started planning on ways to cheer Luna up.

However, the mind of the adults was really hard to grasp. Nellie thought that she was doing a good job cheering her Mommy up, but Luna's smile was always quite flat. There were still hints of sadness in her eyes.

Nellie tried all ways to cheer Luna up all the way until before bedtime, but to no avail.

Nellie went to sleep in regret.

After putting Nellie to bed, Luna received a message. It was from Nigel.

It only wrote, (I'm sorry].

Seeing the message, Luna became silent. She knew that Nigel sent her this message because he was a spammer and was partly responsible for spreading the rumors and insulting her online, so he was apologizing to her.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 50

However, there was nothing much Nigel could apologize for regarding this matter.

After all, he was only trying to help her speed up the process of splitting Joshua and Aura up.

Only that, none of them expected that Joshua's partiality to Aura was to an extreme extent.

At that thought, Luna let out a long sigh. She replied to Nigel, (I don't blame you. Take good care of yourself].

Actually, this was the first time Nigel has sent her a message ever since Luna returned to the country.

The last time, on the Ferris Wheel, Nigel did contact Luna via Nellie's necklace, but that was due to an emergency.

Nigel was against her decision to return to the country. Because of that, Nigel even gave her the cold shoulder.

“Mommy, please don't go back? We'll find a better way. We don't need that man.

“I don't want you to return to him. I don't want you to bear him another child.

“If that's the case, I would rather die than let you suffer. Don't have anything to do with that man, please...

“I would rather die than spend the last few moments of my life seeing you being tortured by him. I don't want to see you suffer...“ When she left, Nigel said those words to her.

They rang in her ears once more at that moment. Luna closed her eyes in pain.

Perhaps it was because she was too weak when she first got pregnant. When she gave birth to the three of them, Nellie had been weak and sick since young. Nigel was also diagnosed with leukemia when he was five years old. Neil's bone marrow was incompatible with Nigel's, Nellie was always on medication because of her weak body, so her bone marrow was not healthy too.

Malcolm has searched high and low but could not find a successful match with Nigel.

In the end, returning back to Joshua was Luna's only choice.

(I will take good care of myself.] Soon after, Nigel replied, (Mommy, take good care of Neil and Nellie. More importantly, you have to take care of yourself too. If it's too insufferable, come back. I don't need to find a cure for my disease.]

Luna wanted to cry at how mature Nigel was. She has been back in the country for almost a week.

She initially thought she had already driven a wedge between Joshua and Aura, but everything that happened today told her she was wrong.

No matter what, in Joshua's eyes, Aura was irreplaceable.

If not, he would not have falsified evidence to protect Aura, when the evidence right in front of him was overwhelming.

Trying to get him to abandon Aura and be with her seemed difficult.

It was just like six years ago, how she could not make him fall in love with her. In the end, Luna hid under the covers and could not help but cry while looking at Nigel's message.

She was not a good mother. If she were to take care of herself previously, Nellie might be healthy, Nigel would not be sick either.

She cried and messaged Nigel to take good care of himself.

After a while, her tears slowly stopped falling. She had been crying for a long time and she was rather parched.

Luna wiped her tears and went downstairs to pour herself some water.

It was dark downstairs. Luna did not switch on the lights. She followed the faint lights from the side of the wall and headed downstairs.

A cigarette smell was coming from the living room downstairs. The flame from the cigarette butt was waving in the air too.

Luna furrowed her brows. Before she could process what was happening, the lights in the living room were switched on.

Joshua was lazing on the sofa smoking.

When the living room lights were switched on, Joshua raised his eyebrows and looked at Luna.
