Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 711

A misunderstanding?

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 716

Joshua, with the vegetables still in his hands, hesitated for a while, before gently placing them on Luna's plate.

Luna furrowed her brows. Looking at how Joshua was so reluctant to do so, she was inexplicably depressed.

Clunk!

Luna placed her utensils down. “I'm full.“

Then, she got up, instructed Lily to look after the two children, turned, and headed upstairs.

Sitting by the dining table, Joshua looked at Luna leaving. He could not help but sigh.

“Did you see that? It's not that I don't try. I don't have any chances.“

Nigel noticed all of Joshua's actions. He furrowed his brows and looked at Joshua. His tone was so mature it did not sound like a six-year-old.

“If you don't have any chances, you create them. If you want to get the things you want, you cannot rely only on Nellie's hard work.“

Joshua paused for a while before raising his head and looking at Nigel. “Got it.“

Nellie, on the other hand, widened her eyes. She had an expression filled with shock.

Nigel...

Was Nigel not like Neil, they extremely did not like Joshua? They exceptionally hated him.

Why was Nigel talking to Joshua in that way at that moment?

Perhaps, Nigel saw through what Nellie was thinking. He gently cleared his throat and looked away. He did not dare meet Nellie's gaze. "Because I think that he's not too bad."

Getting Nigel's answer, Nellie was silent for a while before smiling all the way to her eyes.

..

Luna returned to her bedroom. She laid on the bed, annoyed, and started at the ceiling in a daze.

She closed her eyes and mind was filled with Joshua's troubled expressions while placing food on her plate.

Luna furrowed her brows.

Was it so difficult for Joshua to give her some food?

Has his acting not always been great? Has he hated her so much that he was not even willing to put on an act anymore?

All that thought, Luna felt annoyed.

At that moment, her phone rang.

She fished for her phone irritably.

It was a message from Bonnie.

A photo of her in a wedding gown.

In the photo, Bonnie was in a white wedding gown.

Her hair was pulled back. She looked so pure and gorgeous, like a princess from the Middle Ages.

However, behind this beautiful woman was Jason, who looked fierce and brutal.

This wedding photo could be aptly titled The Beauty

and The Beast.

Looking at the photo, Luna felt emotional. (I haven't forgotten our plan yesterday.]

Just when Luna was feeling emotional, Bonnie sent a message.

(I have secretly installed a tracking app on his phone. He told me that he had to do something in the eastern part of the city this afternoon, so he can't be with me. I'm guessing that he is going to see his wife and child this afternoon. Let's take action.]

Bonnie was sitting in the dressing room of the wedding gown shop. She looked at herself in the mirror and tears streamed down her face.

She sniffled her nose and continued typing the message to Luna.

(I don't want to wait any longer. I don't want to be lied to anymore. Jason had fooled me for more than ten years. I do not want to wait a single day longer.]

Bonnie had her pride and dignity. She did not want to be the butt of the joke in other people's eyes.

Luna nodded. Just when she wanted to reply to Bonnie, a loud sound came from downstairs!

What accompanied the sounds was Lily's shocked screams.

“Young Master!”

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 717

Luna stiffened instantly upon Lily's screams.

She did not even reply to Bonnie. She threw her phone aside and immediately went down.

Nigel's body was still not in a good condition. He could get sick easily if his emotions were not in check!

Luna rushed downstairs barefooted. What she saw was not Nigel being sick, but...

Nigel was holding onto a little knife that was placed on the dining table previously, pointing it at Joshua's neck.

The blade of the knife had already cut through Joshua's neck a little. Some blood was flowing.

Lily, with a pale face, was hugging Nellie by the side. She did not want Nellie to see such a bloody scene.

Although Nigel was not sick, Luna was still shocked a t the scene in front of her that she was rendered speechless.

She furrowed her brows and walked over. “What is going on?“

Nigel calmly swept Luna a glance. He said in his child's voice yet mixed with an adult maturity, “ Mommy, don't step in. This is a battle between men.“

Luna was speechless. She only saw Nigel hurting Joshua unilaterally.

Thank goodness Nigel did not go all out. Although Joshua's neck seemed to be bleeding, from the amount of blood bleeding, it did not seem serious.

Luna sighed. In the end, she still turned and took a first aid kit from the shelves. Then, she sat on the sofa with her first aid kit on her lap, waiting for the ' battle between men' to end.

Joshua still did not move. He looked at Nigel with a cold glare.

Nigel also fearlessly met Joshua's gaze. His eyes were fierce.

The two of them looked at each other for a long time. In the end, Nigel let out a long breath. He retreated the knife.

“You win.“

Nigel picked the cup of milk on the table and downed it in one go.

“I'll concede defeat.“

Then, he directly jumped down from the chair and strode to Lily's side. He grabbed Nellie's hand. “ Follow me upstairs.“

Nellie nodded and followed behind Nigel without saying anything.

After the two of them left, Joshua immediately walked over and sat next to Luna.

He swept a flat gaze at the first aid kit in her arms. “Be gentle, I'm afraid of pain.“

Luna rolled her eyes at him. She did not open the first aid kit in her arms.

“Since when did I say I wanted to dress your wound?“

Joshua laughed.

“If you're not going to dress my wound, why did you take the first aid kit?“

She even took it long ago, sitting by the sofa, waiting for him.

If she was not worried for him, then what was it?

At that thought, Joshua smiled and went in closer. “ Come on.“

Luna furrowed her brows and subconsciously moved backward a little. “The first aid kit is not for you. “

“Then who is it for?“

“For Nigel.“ Luna swept Joshua a cold glance. “What if you don't know your own strength and harm him, I could help him at once.“

Joshua laughed. His tall body relaxedly leaned back on the sofa. He smiled.

“Although you hate me right now, you can't twist facts. Do I look like the type of person that would harm Nigel?“

Luna paused for a while. “Then what were you and he betting on?“

“Nothing.“

Joshua shrugged. “We were betting whether Nigel would dare to really come at me.“

Actually, what he and Nigel bet on was whether Joshua was willing to die for Luna or not.

However, Joshua did not want to tell Luna the truth. “What nonsense."

Luna rolled her eyes at him. In the end, she lowered her head and opened the first aid kit.

“Come here."

Luna took iodine out and furrowed her brows at him.

Joshua laughed a little. He was just about to go in closer when his phone rang.

From Luna's angle, she could see the screen of his phone.

The caller ID stated, (Blake].

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 718

Joshua had two phones. One was for business, the other was personal.

The phone that was ringing at that moment was his personal one.

Looking at this Blake, Luna furrowed her brows in confusion.

Among the people that Joshua knew, was there someone with the surname Blake?

How did she not know?

Initially, Luna was waiting for Joshua to pick up the phone then deduce who the person was from their conversation.

However, she did not expect that the moment Joshua looked at the caller ID on his phone, he hesitated.

Joshua raised his hand which was holding onto the ringing phone. He stood up.

“I still have matters to attend to. I'll make a move. “ Luna was still holding onto the iodine.

Looking at the blood seeping out from the wound on Joshua's neck. “You still need to deal with the wound, right?“

A moment ago, he was still brazenly getting her to admit that she wanted to dress his wound. Why, at that moment, because of a phone call, he did not even bother to deal with his wound?

“It's fine.“

Joshua lifted his hand. He directly used his fingers to wipe the blood away. “I'll make a move first.“

Then, he strode to the entrance, picked up the documents by the entrance, and left.

The moment he exited the door. He looked at Luna deeply.

“Take care.“

Luna looked at him strangely.

Has he gone nuts? No one wanted his wish.

After Joshua had gone for a long while only then did Luna remember that she still had not replied to Bonnie's message.

She skipped a few steps while heading upstairs and took her phone out, about to reply to Bonnie's message when her phone rang.

It was from Bonnie.

Luna furrowed her brows and picked it up.

“Bonnie?“

“Luna, you really have some tricks up your sleeves.“ On the other end of the line was not Bonnie's voice, but Jason's.

Jason gritted his teeth and said pressingly, “I initially wanted to let you and Bonnie, but why did you not give me a chance?“

He laughed maniacally and arrogantly, “Luna, you forced my hand! “

Luna grabbed the phone tightly.

“Jason! Calm down! You and Bonnie are not married yet. If you do anything to Bonnie and she dies, you won't even get a single cent! By then, the Craigs' inheritance would go to distant relatives. Do you want that?“

Joshua's arrogance was cut in half upon Luna's words.

After a while, Jason sneered, “Don't you think I don't know that? All this while, I have treated her like a deity, serving her and pleasing her. I made her feel that I loved her the most in the entire world.

Look at what happened then?

“You have been unconscious for more than a month! Now that you've been up for just a few days, she already trusts you more! She doesn't trust me anymore! She treats me as the enemy! Luna! You're horrible! Horrible! “

Hearing Jason's voice on the other end of the line, Luna let out a long exhale. Her suspended heart finally landed.

Although she could hear the urgency and the strong hatred in Jason's tone, Luna could also hear that he still wanted Bonnie's inheritance.

Since he wanted money, he could not do anything to Bonnie.

At least before their marriage, he would not be able to do anything to her.

At that thought, Luna calmed down. She tried to sound calm.

”Jason, how is Bonnie now?” ”How? I knocked her cold.”

On the other end of the call, Jason was driving while looking at the lady being tied up tightly in the backseat of the car.

His voice was cold.

”Doesn't she want to know where my wife and son are? I'll bring her to see them right now! ”

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 719

Luna narrowed her eyes. “What are you trying to do?”

Jason laughed arrogantly, “What does it have to do with you? I'm calling you to inform you. Luna, from now onward, don't meddle in our affairs! If you don't want your two other children to end up like your dead child, you take your kids and live your life! Mind your own business! “

After spitting those last four words, Jason directly hung up.

Luna gripped the phone, listening to the disconnecting tone. Her heart sank violently.

She took a deep breath and immediately switched on her computer by the side.

Although the tracking app on Jason's phone, installed by Bonnie, must have been removed, Nigel had specially installed a secret tracking device on Bonnie's phone.

Jason called her from Bonnie's phone a moment ago. That proved that Bonnie's phone was still with them!

Luna immediately opened the tracking software on her computer.

Bonnie's phone was a red dot on the map, slowly moving toward the outskirts at the eastern side of the city.

Luna bit her lips hard.

At that sort of moment, her first reaction was to make a police report.

However, if she made a police report, the police would not know the truth between Bonnie and Jason. They would most probably think that it was just a basic lover's quarrel.

At that thought, Luna hesitated for a very long tie. In the end, she searched for Joshua's contact.

Although she just had an unpleasant interaction with Joshua a moment ago, a person's life was at risk at that moment.

When she was abroad, she could find Malcolm if she encountered any problems.

When Theo was still alive, she could still look for him.

However, at that moment, in such a time, she could only think of Joshua.

Also, Bonnie was of the Craig family. Her family was considered well acquainted with Joshua many years ago. Joshua's good friend, Jude, was also considered a distant cousin of Bonnie's.

Luna felt that Joshua would help out.

However, Luna did not expect when she mustered the courage to call Joshua, Joshua, on the other end of the line, brushed her off perfunctorily.

“I'm busy right now.“

Joshua gently cleared his throat. “Okay, why don't I get Jude to head to Blue Bay Villa right now, to rescue Bonnie with you. Jude and Bonnie are relatives. He would help. I 'm hanging up. I 'm still busy.“

Joshua finished saying what he needed to say and hung up the call just like that.

Luna, holding onto the phone, was baffled. Was he exacting revenge?

Because her attitude was terrible toward him a moment ago, so he was not even willing to save her friend's life? Was that it?

At that thought, Luna was instantly disheartened.

She lifted her head and looked at the screen.

Bonnie's signal was still coming from the outskirts of the eastern part of the city. It has stopped moving.

Luna was instantly alarmed.

In such situations, either they have reached their destination or Jason has thrown Bonnie's phone away!

The previous situation was still alright, they could still follow the signal to look for their hiding place.

However, what if it was the latter?

If they did not chase after them, everything would be too late!

Who knew what Jason and his family would do to Bonnie?

At that thought, Luna immediately went downstairs.

She did not get their driver to drive, instead, she hailed a taxi.

“To the eastern outskirts of the city! Quick!"

The driver nodded and sped forth like a rocketship.

On the way, Luna received a call from an unknown number.

“Hello, I'm Jude Smith."

Jude's voice, on the other end of the call, was cold. “ How is my distant cousin Bonnie?"

Listening to Jude's casual voice, Luna bit her lips hard.

Even though she was extremely reluctant, she could only speak to Jude politely.

“I need help right now. Could you bring some men? Toward the eastern outskirts of the city."

Jude, on the other end of the line, turned serious. “ I'll bring my men there immediately. Where are you right now? Do you need someone to pick you up?"

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 720

Luna looked at the scenery going past her quickly outside the window.

“No need. I'm already in a cab. If your men are coming, come quick.“

Jude was silent upon Luna's words.

After a while, he laughed. “This is the first time I saw such a brave woman like you.“

The situation was dire. She clearly knew that the other party wanted her life, yet she still went forward alone.“

Luna paused a little. She laughed. “A woman who has no one to comfort her or love her has to be a little bit more courageous.“

Upon saying that, Luna directly hung up the call.

Jude, on the other end, listened to the disconnecting tone. What Luna said a moment ago kept ringing in his ears.

A woman who has no one to comfort or love her? How humble was she?

To be able to get Nathan Allen's son and Joshua to fight over her was considered a woman who had no one to comfort or love her?

How comical.

At that thought, Jude changed into a more comfortable position. He instructed the driver. “

Bring some men to the eastern outskirts of the city. Find the cab and follow the cab.“

Then, Jude took his phone out and opened his chat with Joshua.

(Have you seen the person?]

(Hmm,] Joshua replied quickly, (Still at the hospital waiting for results.]

Jude sighed.

(Although the bone marrow cells were preserved a few years back, if it is a successful match, it shouldn't be a problem. Furthermore, any problems could be solved! I have even thought of what meal you should treat me to once Nigel is cured.]

Joshua was silent for a while. He did not reply to Jude. After a while, Joshua took a deep breath.

(Jude. Jason is a dangerous man. I only have one request when you're bringing your men over.]

(What is it?]

(Don't let Luna get hurt.]

Looking at those words on the phone, Jude sighed.

(Got it!]

Soon, Jude's group of cars chased after Luna's taxi.

Looking at the group of cars approaching her from the rearview mirror, Luna was a little relieved.

She let out a long sigh, lowered her head, and looked at the signal on her phone.

It was around there.

“Driver, slow down a little.“ In the back seat, Luna carefully sized the surrounding houses while furrowing her brows and saying.

“You guys are searching for people, is that it?“

The driver turned back to look at Luna. “I'm familiar with this area. Who are you looking for?“

Luna immediately took her phone out of her pocket. She found the photo that Zach sent to her previously, the one with Jason and his wife and kid.

“This woman and child. Have you seen them before?“

The driver stopped the car. He took over the phone and looked at the photo seriously.

“Yes! “ The driver pointed at the low-cost housing in the distance. “They're staying in that block. Both of them are country people that came back from abroad. They have a strange accent. I remember it clearly! “

Luna was delighted. She looked at the building that the driver was pointing at.

“Then, do you know which floor they live on?“

The driver shook his head. “I don't know about this, but if you pay the property management people some money, perhaps they might know.“

Luna nodded seriously.

After getting out of the taxi, she hurriedly rushed over to the property management office and exchanged some money for some info.

Jason's wife and child stayed in Block A, 18th floor, house number one.

Once they made sure of everything, Jude brought his men over.

Luna and Jude hit it off immediately. The group majestically rushed over to house 1801.

Just as the group was standing by and Luna was about to knock on the door, Jude furrowed his brows. He raised his hand and stopped Luna.

“Something is not right."

Luna furrowed her brows. “What is it?"

“The smell." Joshua sniffed. “It smells strongly of blood."

Smells of blood?

Luna furrowed her brows and tried to sniff hard. The air truly had a thick scent of blood.

Luna was instantly alarmed!

Would Jason have....

Jude, next to Luna, also could not help but worry. Although Bonnie was just a distant relative, the Craig family had gone through such an ordeal previously. At that moment, Bonnie was the only heir left in the entire Craig family.

If Bonnie were to also die...

The Craig family line would have died.

At that moment, one of Jude's men bent down. He skillfully tossed a dash of powder on the ground.

Soon, the powder turned pink. “Reaction to blood.“

The man furrowed his brows, lifted his head, and looked at Jude. “Sir, don't worry, the person that we are looking for is still fine.“

He pointed at the powder that changed color on the ground.

“When I smelt blood just now, I thought that something was off. It did not smell like fresh blood, more like the blood that has been there for a long time. Pouring the powder on the ground, we did find signs of blood that had been washed away by water.“ He followed the trail of blood and looked at the door crack.

“It looks like it came from there. If it's not fresh blood, it would most likely be that someone has died here previously.“

Luna was stunned and subconsciously took a step back.

Upon hearing that Bonnie was probably not dead, Jude furrowed his brows. He directly got someone to listen to the movements in the room. In the end, they planned to break the door and intrude.

The few trained men in black directly crashed the door open and rushed in with the speed of lightning. They apprehended Jason who was sharpening his knife.

Once the door was kicked open, a strong scent of blood wafted to their noses.

Luna harrumphed coldly. She swept Bonnie a flat gaze.

“You might believe what Jason says, but I don't."

Luna felt that Jason only told Bonnie that he was not well acquainted with Joshua and was most likely trying to help cover for the things that Joshua has done.

Bonnie furrowed her brows.

“Luna, although Jason has also lied to me about other things, there is no need for him to lie to me about this. You..."

Before Bonnie could finish her sentence, her phone rang.

It was Jason.

Sitting in the restaurant, Jason looked at both of them outside through the window coldly.

“Are you done? Are we still eating or not?"

His tone was a little fierce. Bonnie's heart skipped a beat. “Yes, yes, we'll eat! "

Then, she immediately hung up and pulled Luna back into the restaurant.

Once the waiters had served all the dishes, Bonnie urged Luna to start eating.

Luna ate very little.

The entire meal, she was observing Jason.

After a long while, when they finished the meal, Luna calmly placed her utensils down and swept Jason a glance.

“Your conversation with Joshua just now didn't seem to go very well?“

It was fine when Luna did not mention Joshua. However, upon the mention of Joshua, Jason was aggravated.

He thought that he was about to become Bonnie's husband, he would be somewhat a public figure in Banyan City, so Joshua should at least treat him with respect.

However, Joshua did not.

Jason looked at Luna and sneered, “Yes, we argued. Because I was not willing to help Joshua lie to you, so he got mad.“

Then, Jason harrumphed coldly. He initially wanted to say something else, but Bonnie involuntarily clutched her tummy. Her face turned pale. “My...my tummy hurts.“

Joshua furrowed his brows and looked at her impatiently. “Didn't your period just end?“

Bonnie was in so much pain she was sweating profusely. “I don't think this is about my period. My tummy just hurts.“

Bonnie bit her lips. “I want to go to the hospital.“

Jason rolled his eyes at her. “How pretentious. When we were in the countryside, didn't we always have stomach pain? We'll just bear through it. Why is there a need to go to the hospital?“

Luna looked at how Bonnie was in so much pain she could not even speak. Then, she looked at Jason. She immediately took her phone out and dialed the emergency number.

The ambulance came quickly.

The doctor's preliminary diagnosis was that Bonnie had acute gastroenteritis.

When Bonnie reached the hospital, she was in so much pain she passed out. Seeing Bonnie being pushed into the emergency room, Jason furrowed his brows a little irritably.

“Women are so troublesome.“

Luna narrowed her eyes. “Are you like that with your wife too?“

“She won't get sick so easily, “ Jason immediately replied to Luna's question, “Her health is much better than mine.“

Then, Jason suddenly noticed that something was not right. He furrowed his brows and turned to look at Luna, with a guarded expression.

“How did you know about my wife...“

Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes. “Did Zach and Yuri those two traitors tell you?“

Luna laughed a little, “Are they traitors? In my eyes, you, who cheat on other people, are the traitors.“

Jason smiled. “Cheat? You overestimate the relationship between Bonnie and me.“

Jason's voice was ice cold. “I never liked Bonnie once.“

After all, Jason did not have any secrets to keep from Luna anymore, so he would rather just put it all out there.

“I got together with Bonnie previously because I know that she is from the Craig family. Everyone in Banyan City knows that the richest are the Lynch family, then the Smiths, then the Craigs.“

Jason changed into a more comfortable position, leaning against the wall. He fished a cigarette out and was about to light it. He noticed Luna pointing at the No Smoking sign. He hesitated for a while before putting his cigarette away.

“Back then, when Bonnie and I got together. I truly thought that she would reconcile with the Craig family. That way, I will get to be a son-in-law of the Craigs.“

Jason said coldly while putting his cigarette back in its box, “Who would have known that Bonnie was so unlikable. The Craigs would not reconcile with her. So, for money, I accepted a job.“

Then, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Luna. “ Yours. Joshua was pretty generous. Five hundred thousand.

“I went abroad and met my wife there. We had a pretty happy life there, but money would always be depleted. We were just worrying about where to get money when all of the Craig family died. Bonnie became the only heir.“

He smiled extremely deviously. ”How could we give up on such a chance?”

Luna narrowed her eyes. She clenched her fists tightly by her sides.

In her pocket, the recording device was still secretly recording it all.

”Did your wife agree to you doing all this?” ”Of course.”

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 712

Jason laughed out loud.

“The entire city knows about the marriage between Bonnie and I. Do you think I would be able to successfully marry Bonnie if my wife did not agree to it?“

Luna was silent for a while. After a while, she laughed.

“You're right. Birds of a feather flock together. Naturally, your wife doesn't have many principles either.“

“Principles? What are those?“ Jason harrumphed coldly and crossed his arms around his chest. “You sure have principles, but are you living better than us right now?“

Jason's words were like a knife violently stabbing Luna's heart.

Yes. She has her principles, but was she having a better time compared to anyone else?

Two out of her four children were dead. The living ones, one of them had a terminal illness, the other was autistic.

The people who hurt her were out there living freely.

A wave of hatred overwhelmed her. She wanted to rush forward and killJason!

She wanted to dissect Jason and Joshua's chest. To see if they truly had a heart or not!

How could a person with a beating heart do such things!

Waves of emotions raged in Luna's eyes. She forcefully suppressed the hatred in her heart and continued to encourage Jason to speak more. “Did you not like Bonnie one bit? She has liked you for so many years.“

Jason sneered, “As you said, she has liked me for so many years. If I truly liked her, I would have liked her a long time ago, did I need to wait for so long?“

Luna narrowed her eyes upon Jason's words.

Jason suddenly warped into Joshua in front of her.

His cold voice was telling her a hard face. If he liked her, he would have liked her a long time ago, he did not need to wait for so long.

Bonnie's silly infatuation was just like her back then. It was pathetic and funny.

Luna sniffled her nose and looked away, saying nothing else.

Soon, Jason's phone rang. He did not hide away from Luna. He immediately picked the call up.

“Hmm, wait a little longer. When the marriage ceremony is over, I 'll go look for you and our son. You don't have enough money? I'll transfer some to you. Bonnie even gave me some money to spend yesterday. That fool, she won't notice it...“

Luna remained in the same spot, clutching the recording device tightly.

She suddenly could not bear to record Jason humiliating Bonnie. However, in the end, Luna continued recording.

Perhaps, Bonnie could only truly let go under extreme heartbreak?

Just like her feelings for Joshua.

“Back then, when Bonnie and I got together. I truly thought that she would reconcile with the Craig family. That way, I will get to be a son-in-law of the Craigs.“

“You don't have enough money? I'll transfer some to you. Bonnie even gave me some money to spend yesterday...“

“That fool, she won't notice it...“ That night, at Blue Bay Villa.

Bonnie was in Luna's bedroom, listening to Luna's recording. Her face was paler than the color of the wall behind her.

Tears fell uncontrollably. Bonnie bit her lips and shook her head furiously.

“I don't believe it... “Impossible...

“How would Jason do this to me...“

Even if she said she did not believe it, the despair in her eyes already sold her out.

Luna sighed and gently held Bonnie's hand. “I was once as naive and foolish as you.“

Bonnie could no longer hold back. She hugged Luna and wailed. While sobbing, she recounted how Jason was sincere and how much he sacrificed back then.

Luna silently listened to her, as if she was looking at her past, foolish self.

The two of them talked until late at night.

In the end, Bonnie wiped tears away from the reddened eyes. She looked at Luna.

“You previously said that I have to agree to a request of yours. Tell me. No matter what it is, I'll agree to it.”

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 713

Bonnie spent the night at Luna's in Blue Bay Villa.

The next morning, Jason arrived at Blue Bay Villa early to pick Bonnie up to go try on wedding gowns.

Jason came too early, Bonnie was not awake yet. She cried the entire night. She only fell asleep early in the morning under Luna's comfort.

Luna brought Nellie and Neil downstairs. They immediately noticed Jason in the living room.

Upon hearing footsteps, Jason turned to look.

The moment he saw Nigel, his eyes widened in shock. “Didn't your son die already?“

“Yes, I'm a ghost.“ Nigel swept Jason a cold glance. “

I'm here to take your life.“

Nigel's voice was so eerie, Jason was so frightened he was silenced.

After a while, he furrowed his brows, looked at Nigel, and laughed, “What life? I'm not the one who killed your brother.“

Then, he could not help but size Nigel up and exclaimed, “Identical twins truly are magical. They look exactly the same. I almost mistook him.“

Nigel harrumphed coldly and said nothing else.

Luna did not want to deal with Jason. She only swept him a flat glance. “Bonnie slept late last night. Why don't you come over in the afternoon? I think she'll sleep through the entire morning.“

“It's fine. I can wait here.“ Jason leaned back on the sofa. He glanced at Luna and her children coldly. His attitude was extremely arrogant.

“I know that you hate me and you don't want to see me. But since you got Bonnie to stay at your place, you should have expected that I'll be here too.“

Then, Jason looked around the decor in the villa. He sneered.

“Mr. Lynch sure is rich. He could just move out of such a luxurious villa to let you all stay. To put it nicely, he got you to stay here to take care of your two children. To put it harshly...“

Jason sneered and said, “He doesn't want to look at the three of you, he can't offend you, but he could hide from you! “

“You're lying!“

Nellie, who had been quiet all this while, was finally aggravated at Jason's words.

She let go of Luna's hand and ran down the stairs. She directly rushed to Jason, opened her mouth, and bit Jason's hand!

Nellie bit with all her might. The moment she bit him, Jason was in so much pain his eyes widened. He flung his arm hard.

Nellie was biting hard, Jason could not get her off!

“If you still continue this, don't blame me for being rude! “ Jason furrowed his brows. His gaze turned vicious. He directly choked Nellie's neck.

It all happened too quickly, Luna could not react in time.

When she came to her senses, Jason was already choking Nellie. Nellie's face flushed red being choked by Jason, but she still bit on Jason's hand hard.

Luna manically rushed forward. Before she could push Jason away, a large hand reached over and directly twisted the arm which Jason was using to choke Nellie.

Jason was in pain so he involuntarily let Nellie go. “Nellie.“ A low man's voice rang out. “Let go.“

Nellie lifted her head and saw that it was Joshua. At that only then did she sigh in relief and let go of Jason.

She bit her lips and looked at Joshua aggrievedly. “He said that you don't want to see us.“

“He's lying.“

Joshua looked at the red handprint around Nellie's neck. He was heartbroken. Viciousness flashed across his eyes.

The next second, Joshua pinned Jason to the ground. He stepped on Jason's back with his custom-made leather shoes.

“You're an adult, why are you going up against a six- year-old little girl?“

Luna rushed over and hugged Nellie in her arms. She comforted Nellie while looking at Jason and Joshua.

Joshua was stepping on Jason with a bone- chilling gaze.

Jason was on the ground, being stepped on. He tried to struggle and break free. His eyes were filled with reluctance and loathing.

Luna furrowed her brows.

If Joshua and Jason were putting on an act the day before, what about at that moment?

Instantaneous reactions could not lie.

Luna hugged Nellie. She was suddenly a little swayed. Could it be that...

Jason and Joshua really did not have anything to do with each other?

A person like Jason, someone who climbed up from the bottom of the social ladder to his current position, the thing he could not accept the most was being stepped on.

Joshua should know about this too, yet he still did it.

If Joshua and Jason were working together, was he not afraid that Jason might be angry and turn his back against him?

“Mr. Lynch.“

Suddenly, Bonnie's voice came from the staircase behind them.

Bonnie, who was in Luna's pajamas, furrowed her brows and came down.

“Let him go, please.“ Bonnie walked down and stood in front of Joshua. “Treat it as out of respect for my late father. I remember that my father was pretty good friends with the Lynch family when he was still alive.“

Joshua sneered. “I'm glad that you still think of Mr. Craig. If he was up above looking at how immature his daughter was, I'm afraid he might have regretted passing down the family's fortune to you.“

Then, Joshua coldly retreated his foot. He looked down at Jason, who was fumbling to get up, condescendingly.

“Out of respect for Bonnie, I'll only give you a warning. If I ever see you harming my children again, I'll never let you go!“

Seeing Jason getting up, Bonnie hesitated for a moment. In the end, she strode over and gently helped him up. Her voice was tender.

“Jason, are you alright?“ “I'm fine.“

Jason was in so much pain, but he still gently held Bonnie's hand. “Be good and go change your clothes. I'll take you to try on your wedding gown.“

Bonnie smiled and nodded. “I'll go now.“

Then, she turned to look at Luna, then Joshua. “Mr. Lynch, don't be angry. I'll leave with him soon.“

Bonnie let out a breath and went upstairs.

Soon after, Bonnie has changed her clothes and left with Jason.

Once the both of them left, Lily came out from the kitchen in an apron. She smiled and said to Nigel and Nellie, “Young master, little princess, come and have your breakfast! “

Nellie pursed her lips and got up. She walked over next to Nigel. She held his hand without saying anything and headed to the dining room.

It was only Luna and Joshua left in the living room.

Looking at Nellie and Nigel sitting by the dining table having their meal, Luna furrowed her brows and swept Joshua a cold glance.

“Mr. Lynch, why are you here? Didn't you say that you'111et me stay here to take care of Nigel and Nellie and you won't come back easily? Why are you here uninvited after only the second day?“

Joshua furrowed his brows. He was rather apprehensive of her aloof attitude.

He narrowed his eyes. “You don't have to speak to me this way. We are not enemies.“

Then, Joshua went upstairs.

“I came here because I wanted to take some documents I left here.“

Joshua took a few steps before stopping in his tracks. He looked at Luna.

“Since you said previously that Jason is not a good person, yet you're spending your time with them every day. What is that all about? Are you playing with fire?“

Luna sneered and looked at Joshua. “Aren't I playing with fire every day? Jason might be a dangerous man, but are you not as well, Mr. Lynch?“

Joshua's expressions instantly darkened upon Luna's words.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at Luna. His voice was cold. “Must you compare me with a person like Jason?“

“That's because you both are the same type of person.“

Luna chuckled a little. Her eyes were cool. “Not only are you both the same type of person, but you guys are still a team too.“

Joshua furrowed his brows hard. He looked at Luna and enunciated, “Luna, I have already told you. I have nothing to do with Jason.“

Luna smiled. “Who would believe you?“

“I can't help you if you don't believe me.“ Joshua looked at her deeply and went upstairs.

Upstairs, the door of the study was opened.

Luna stood in the same spot, looking at Joshua heading upstairs. She bit her lips.

Actually, from the moment Joshua rescued Nellie from Jason, based on their reactions, Luna had started to be a little swayed already.

However...

She still could not be sure whether they were putting on an act or not.

After all, Joshua was still the greatest actor. His acting skills were amazing.

“Mommy, come and eat.“

At the dining table in the distance, Nigel called after Luna while taking food for Nellie.

Luna responded and headed over. She accompanied her two children for breakfast distractedly, while trying to listen to the movements upstairs.

Joshua went up for a very long time. It was as if he was not planning to come down.

She paused for a while and waved her hand, calling for Lily. She gently instructed into Lily's ears.

Lily nodded. She took off her apron and was about to head upstairs when Joshua had already come out from the study and headed downstairs.

Standing by the staircase, Joshua coldly glanced at Luna. “You don't have to worry about me overstaying my welcome. I'm leaving.“

Then, Joshua placed the document under his arms, turned, and left.

Just when his hand was touching the doorknob, a little small hand tugged at him.

Joshua paused a little and subconsciously looked down.

Nellie, in a princess gown, was tugging on his sleeve. She was looking at him with her huge watery eyes filled with reluctance. “Eat with us.“

Nellie spat those words out with difficulty. Joshua bent down, heartbroken.

He gently hugged Nellie's head. “I'm not hungry, you guys go ahead.“

Although previously Nellie was not as mischievous a s Neil, she was still lively and adorable.

However, at that moment...

After Nellie witnessed Neil and Theo's room being blasted, she changed.

Joshua sighed and gently patted Nellie on the back. “ You'll get better.“

Nellie shook her head. She firmly grabbed onto his sleeve. “Eat with us.“

Joshua paused for a while. He subconsciously lifted his head and looked at Luna who was eating at the dining table.

She calmly swept him a glance. Their eyes met.

Luna furrowed her brows and avoided his gaze. “ Then, stay. Lily made extra. There's enough for all of us.“

“Okay! “ Before Joshua could answer, Nellie answered on his behalf.

Joshua sighed helplessly. He placed the documents down, carried Nellie, and returned to the dining table.

The atmosphere by the dining table was a little weird.

Joshua kept taking food for Nigel and Nellie without saying anything.

“Mommy likes this." When Joshua placed some vegetables on Nellie's plate, Nigel could not help but say, “But Nellie never eats this."

Then, Nigel looked at Joshua seriously. “Give them to Mommy."
