Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 91 online free

“Great-Granny!“

Nellie bit her lip. She grabbed Luna's finger with her small hands. “I've already said that I only want Aunty to take care of me! Great -Granny, if you're going to be like that, I won't like you anymore! “

Granny Lynch forcefully dimmed her aloofness and forced a smile. “Nellie, l've already said it. You're one of the masters. You can't rely on a servant so much.“

She then looked at the butler coldly. “Take the little princess out to play. I want to speak to Ms. Luna in private.“

Nellie bit her lip. She knew that nothing good could come out of the conversation. She immediately hugged her thin arms around Luna's.

“No! I want to be with Aunty. Whoever breaks us up, I'll hate them forever! “

Granny Lynch's expressions got uglier at Nellie's carefree words.

Joshua had never gotten close with any women for the past few years. Granny Lynch had even thought she might not be able to see the day where four generations could be together.

At that moment, a great -granddaughter suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Granny Lynch was so afraid to lose her, so she treated Nellie as her precious baby.

Even though she would constantly give in to Nellie, she had her bottom line and her principles, too.

Nellie relied on Luna, a servant, more than she relied on family. This was unacceptable! Luna had to be removed!

Moreover, Luna not only got Nellie's heart, but even Joshua also held her in high regard!

At the fire a few days ago, Joshua had already seen that Nellie was safe, but at the very crucial moment, he still rushed into the fire to rescue Luna. He even got into a fight with the people outside the fire!

This was the second time Granny Lynch had seen Joshua risk everything for this woman.

The last woman who had this effect on Joshua was Luna Gibson.

After her death, Joshua holed himself in his room and drank excessively. He almost tortured himself to death!

At that thought, Granny Lynch's eyes turned even colder.

Even if she loved Nellie, she still had to get rid of Luna!

At that thought, Granny Lynch looked at the butler behind her coldly. “What are you still standing there for? Take Nellie away! “

Seeing how Nellie held onto Luna tightly, the butler was a little conflicted. “Ma'am, this is...“

“Nellie,“ sighed Luna sighed. She gently patted Nellie on the back. “Listen to Great-Granny. Go.“

Nellie hugged Luna's hands with tears streaming down her face.

“No, no, no! Great-Granny wants to get rid of you! I don't want you to go!“

Ever since Nellie came of age, she lived with her Mommy. She used to think that her Mommy was all- powerful. It was only until the past two days that Luna was unconscious did Nellie start being afraid.

She was afraid she would lose Luna. She was afraid that Luna would not be by her side.

However, Granny Lynch was determined to get rid of her.

Nellie cried so badly that she began to gasp for air. “I don't want to leave Aunty! “

Seeing her tears, Granny Lynch was a little heartbroken, but...her decision was firm when she saw Luna.

Such a seductive woman. She has to be removed!

“Butler! “ Being called upon a few times, the butler finally sighed, came over, and carried Nellie into his arms.

“It'll be fine.“ Seeing Nellie sobbing in the butler's arms, Luna was a little heartbroken.

She gently comforted Nellie, “Be good.“

The door of the ward was shut with Nellie's cries ringing in the air.

“I never knew that you have such a strong grip on m y great-granddaughter.“

When Nellie's cries were far away, Granny Lynch harrumphed. She sat by the side. “But the more you're like that, the more I can't let you stay. If you can get my great-granddaughter to listen  to you, you can get her to go up against us."

Granny Lynch's tone was filled with detest. “Who knows what atrocious things you would come up with once you have a standing in our family."

Luna smiled faintly. “You're overthinking this.”

“I only like Nellie.“

“You like her?“ Granny Lynch harrumphed coldly. “ More like her dad! When I still didn't know of

Nellie's existence, I didn't know you were so manipulative. Using Nellie's love and reliance for you to live in Blue Bay Villa without any holdbacks.

You pacify Nellie on one side while seducing Joshua on the other. You have a beautiful face yet an ugly heart! “

Luna had long guessed that Granny Lynch would say that. She gently chuckled. “Granny Lynch, your deduction is pretty logical, but it's all wrong, sadly.“

Luna then eyed the necklace on Granny Lynch's neck. “Ms. Gibson gave you more gifts?“

The necklace this time was the same series as the previous one. Of course, it was fake as well.

Granny Lynch rolled her eyes coldly at Luna. “Aura gave this to me. She has such a good eye for things like these. Much better than you! More importantly, Aura is Nellie's blood -related aunt ! You'll never be able to compete with that ! If I had to pick between you and Aura, I'd pick Aura to be my granddaughter- in-law in a heartbeat.“

Then, Granny Lynch harrumphed. “As for you, you should know your place. You only headed to Blue Bay Villa to deliberately get close to Nellie and Joshua just because of money, right? If one million isn't enough for you, name your price, but don't be too greedy.“

Luna, on the bed, looked at Granny Lynch's necklace and laughed gently. “Yes. One can't be too greedy. It doesn't mean that the more million-dollar necklaces you have, the better, doesn't it?“

With furrowed brows, Granny Lynch could no longer tolerate Luna's mocking tone anymore and hid the necklace under her clothes. “Don't change the topic! How much to get you to leave?“

Luna shut her eyes and sighed. After a while, she opened them.

“I'll leave, but I don't want your money. I have a request.“ “What is it?“

“I want to leave after your birthday banquet.“

She knew that she could not be Joshua's maid for too long. First, this was not part of her plan. Second, living under the close scrutiny of Joshua, she would one day expose herself.

Joshua had already suspected her in the intensive care unit a moment ago.

However, even if she wanted to leave, she had to wait until the birthday banquet, when Joshua announced Nellie's identity to the family. Only then would she be relieved.

If Joshua openly announced that Nellie was his daughter, Aura would not be able to do things to her so easily. After all, if anything were to happen to Nellie, Aura would be the first suspect. She would not be so dumb as to let other people know how cruel she was.

Granny Lynch sneered, “Deal."

A thought then occurred to her. “Aura is going to give me Mr. Y's most precious jewelry during my birthday banquet, so it's good that you stay back. You can see what invaluable means. I hope by then you'd still have the guts to call them fake."

Luna smiled. “Sure."

She wanted to see how pretentious Aura could be. Also, it was about time to settle everything with Aura!

When Granny Lynch left, Nellie came running into Luna's ward. She locked the door and buried herself in Luna's arms sobbing, aggrieved.

“Mommy, I don't want to be away from you. Please don't agree with Great-Granny. I'll try to find a way to let you stay! “

Luna shook her head helplessly. “Don't waste your effort on this.“

She cupped Nellie's face. “You have to grow up eventually, right?“

Nellie sobbed but said nothing.

“Don't worry, I won't let you be in any danger. When things are settled after a few days, you can safely stay with the Lynchs. Although there are many terrible things about your father, he treats you well, and that goes for your Great-Granny, too. I can see she loves you a lot.“

Nellie bit her lip in dissatisfaction. “She doesn't love me! If she did, why would she not let you stay with m e?“

“Because she's an adult, so she has more concerns.“

Luna, in fact, understood where Granny Lynch was coming from. After all, Nellie was the precious daughter of the Lynch family. If such a precious baby relied so much on a maid, no one in the family would accept that.

“I don't care. I just don't like her.“ Nellie pouted capriciously. “If she dares to get rid of you, I won't be friendly to her next time! “

Seeing how stubborn Nellie was, Luna sighed. She could only comfort Nellie before she eventually persuaded the girl to leave.

It was already dark when Nellie left.

The nurse brought dinner in. After placing her dinner right in front of Luna, the nurse took the

remote control out and turned on the television. “ Are you bored here?“

Luna ignored and smiled. She lifted her head and saw Aura's pretentious face on the television.

Aura was smiling at the camera.

“There are rumors online that my fiancé Joshua Lynch is unconscious, and I 'd like to announce that those rumors aren't true. He's a busy and mysterious person, after all. Rumors saying that he's lying in the hospital are undeserving. Of course, our relationship has always been great. The marriage is ongoing.“

“By the way.“ Facing the reporter's camera, Aura showed off the ring on her right ring finger. “Joshua gave me this two days ago.“

The reporters who knew what it was looked at her with widened eyes.

“This is one of the two Mr. Y custom -made rings! “

“It was sold at a sky—high price overseas! Who would've thought Ms. Gibson would have one! “

“Looks like it was Mr. Lynch who bought them...“

Luna swept a glance at the ring on the television as she ate her dinner.

The ring on Aura's finger was undeniably a fake. The real one was with Malcolm Quinn.

If Aura dared to show the ring in such a high-profile manner, that meant that the deal with Malcolm had been made. Not only did she buy the fake Stargazing series, but she also got the ring.

Luna was lucky.

Among the materials that Malcolm sent her, she should be able to make a new ring.

At that thought, Luna took her phone and sent Neil a message.

At first, Neil checked up on her agitatedly, then he got serious.

(The fire nearly burnt down everything, and the furniture is basically gone. Godmom previously said that this belonged to her relatives. After the fire, she told me that she bought the house with her savings and decided to give you the house, so we don't have to pay for the house. The things that we brought back from overseas are all gone, though. The sketches that you asked for had been burnt, too, but I could get an electronic copy from Uncle Malcolm. I could print it out for you.]

At that, Neil took a deep breath.

(Mommy, what should we do next? Because of the fire, I had no choice but to let the scumbag know that you're my mother. We have to be careful when we deal with him in the future.)

Neil was only six, yet he spoke like a mature 26-year- old.

Luna sighed gently and replied, (I've decided to leave Blue Bay Villa after Granny Lynch's birthday banquet

(Are you going to let Nellie stay back?]

(Yes.]

(We'll have to deal with Aura Gibson first, then.]

Neil replied quickly, (I got Zach to gather important evidence. Even if the scumbag isn't going to do anything, I'll take these to the police. Aura is going to jail for a few years].

Luna sighed. Her son was always so mature and understanding.

(Try to comfort Nellie these few days; she doesn't want me to leave her. Since you were the one to suggest her going back to Joshua, you should take responsibility for this.]

Neil was silent for a long time before he eventually brought up that Anne had returned to end their conversation.

After a long while, Luna's phone rang once again. This time, it was a message from Nigel.

(Mommy, I'll deal with Nellie. She listens most to me. Just handle the Aura matter with Neil.]

Nigel rarely sent messages to Luna. Looking at the

text in her phone, Luna sighed. (Thank you.]

(No worries.]

Nigel sighed.

(Mommy, I personally don't care if I could live for many years, but I'm worried for you. I'm worried for Neil and Nellie, too. You've been hurt so badly, yet you refused help from Uncle Malcolm. I'm afraid you won't be happy in the future. Neil is too reckless.

Although he's smart, he doesn't see the big picture. He'll be at a disadvantage sooner or later.]

(Nellie is also too capricious and emotional. She always likes to throw a tantrum. I'm worried for the three of you, and that's my motivation to live on, but if all of you are unhappy because you want to save me, I'd rather die.]

Luna shut her eyes and was silent for a long time.

(Don't think too much. I'll find a way to cure you. All of us will be happy.]

Luna felt out of breath after she sent the text. The room was too suffocating.

Luna hesitated for a while, then she got down the bed. She pushed the door open and walked out.

The hospital at night was not as noisy compared to daytime. It was terrifyingly quiet.

In a striped hospital gown, Luna walked aimlessly around the corridors. Unknowingly, she walked to where Joshua was.

Through the window, she saw Joshua.

With an IV drip still sending fluids into his body, he went through a document seriously in his other hand.

From Luna's angle, she could see his angular side profile.

It was cold, regal, charming, and mature.

Looking at him, Luna could not help but think of the first time they met.

Even if she did not love him anymore at that moment, she could not deny that Joshua looked just like the man of her dreams.

Just when she was looking at Joshua's side profile in a daze, Lucas said faintly from beside her, “Luna, Sir is asking you to go in."

Stunned, Luna immediately came to her senses. When she looked once again, Joshua was still looking at the documents in his hand.

Noticing her gaze, he stopped what he was doing and looked at Luna. His lips moved a little.

“Come in," he seemed to say to her.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 95 online free

Luna followed Lucas into the room.

Joshua was leaning by the head of the bed. He elegantly placed the documents to the side before he raised his eyebrows and looked at Luna. “You've been staring at me outside for twelve minutes.“

Luna smiled a little. “Mr. Lynch, you're so good- looking that I can't help but be mesmerized.“

Joshua did not accept nor deny her praise.

Joshua gently picked up the steaming cup of hot water by the side with his large hands and took a sip.

“So good looking that you have to peep at me at this hour?“

He then looked at Luna. “Do you want some?“ asked Joshua with his wet lips.

Smiling aloofly, she walked toward him and accepted the cup. She downed its contents in one go. “Thank you, Mr. Lynch.“

The warm water flowed through her throat, warming her body up, but her heart was still cold.

“I heard that you promised Granny that you'111eave Blue Bay Villa?“ Joshua squinted. His eyes were so deep that it was hard to understand him.

“Have you achieved what you want, staying by my side?“

“No.“ Luna helped herself to a chair by the side and shifted to a more comfortable position.

“Far from it.“

“You're still planning to leave even so?“

“Yes.“ Luna chuckled lightly. “I thought you always wanted to get rid of me? I'll truly leave after Granny Lynch's birthday banquet.“

Joshua squinted. She used to put up a fight to stay by Nellie's side when he wanted to get rid of her back then.

At that moment, after risking his life to rescue her from the fire, she simply made her decision to leave at Granny's words.

He truly did not understand this woman. She was extremely mysterious, yet he could not help but want to get closer to her. It was hard for him to resist her.

“If there's nothing else, I'll make a move.“ His deep gaze made Luna uncomfortable.

Luna stood up, smiled at him, turned around, and left.

When her hand was on the doorknob, Joshua, by the bed, could not help but furrowed his brows. “Won't you miss it?“

Luna sneered inwardly. “I'll miss Nellie for sure.“ “Only Nellie?“

“Of course. What else?“

Joshua frowned and said nothing more.

“Have a good rest, Mr. Lynch. You've been unconscious for the past few days. Don't work so late at night when you have just recovered. Beware of death by overworking.”

Then, Luna opened the door and left.

After she left, Lucas carefully pushed the door and entered. “Sir, should we start looking for a new maid?"

Joshua closed his eyes. “We'll see about it later." He...still did not want to let her go.

The morning sun shone through the windows. It was bright and sunny. The air was great, too.

Neil took a sip of fruit juice. “Mr. Lynch, I asked you out because I wanted to show you something.

He placed a tablet in front of Joshua.

With furrowed brows, Joshua turned on the tablet as it played some videos and photos.

The videos were of the few burly men talking outside Luna's door during the fire.

The photos were of Aura having a meal with them. It looked like she was paying them.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 96 online free

Flipping through, there were videos and photos of the amusement park incident. Aura was in every one of them.

Joshua's brows furrowed slightly as a hint of shock flashed in his eyes. “You collected all these?“

Neil was just a six—year—old boy.

A normal kid his age would have still been crying snottily in kindergarten, yet this boy could not only express himself clearly but could also gather so much evidence?

Not many adults could do a private investigation like this. How could he possibly achieve it at such a young age?

“Zach and Yuri helped me, but they have their limits. They could only gather so much.“

Neil almost saw through Joshua. He calmly

shrugged. “If it was just me, I wou1dn't have gotten s o much proof, but...“

Neil looked at Joshua with narrowed eyes. “I'm just a kid, and Zach and Yuri are just bodyguards. The three of us could only do so much. I believe, Mr. Lynch, that if you were to truly investigate this matter, you would've long known who the main perpetrator is. The Ferris Wheel incident was so long ago, though, yet you still haven't done anything. That, in itself, is startling.“

Neil smiled mockingly. “In truth, Mr. Lynch, you don't like your daughter that much as you claimed, don't you?“ Although his voice was like a child's, his tone and inflections sounded like an adult's. He was so mature that he did not seem like a six-year-old.

Joshua smiled faintly. “I have my plans.“

“Oh. “ Neil pursed his lips. “I don't care what your plans are. I 'm showing you this today because I'm telling you that I've gathered evidence. Luna is my mother, and Nellie is your daughter. This woman has tried to kill both of them twice. As an adult, I think you should be the one handling this. However, if you're still not unwilling to do anything about it, I can only head down to the police station and bring her to court.“

Neil was only a six-year-old kid. If he were to head down to the police station, they would doubt the authenticity of this evidence.

Zach and Yuri were too stupid. Anne lived peacefully, and Neil did not want to drag her into this, so after giving it much thought, Neil thought that Joshua was the most suitable person.

Moreover, he also wanted to test Joshua, to see if Nellie was more important to him or if Aura was.

If he were to still protect Aura, then Neil was sure that the writings that Joshua wrote on his computer were all fake!

“Let me handle this. “ Joshua understood what he meant.

He calmly placed the tablet aside and asked flatly, “ Are there any copies of the videos?“

Neil nodded. “Yes."

“Delete them, " said Joshua in a low and stern voice. “ I already have the videos, and you don't need to keep them anymore. I'll handle this matter, so don't go causing more trouble.

“You should know that if this video gets out, with her money, she could easily trace the video back to you. You're staying with your godmother. Don't drag her into this. What do you say?"

Neil pursed his lips and looked at Joshua seriously. “ Then, will you promise that you'll punish this woman?"

Neil was not afraid of trouble, but he could not trouble Anne.

Even if it was Luna, she would not want to trouble her friends too. This was also the main reason why Neil did not take the matter into his own hands with Aura in the first place.

“I will." Joshua looked at Neil seriously.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 97 online free

Neil looked at Joshua seriously. “I hope you won't disappoint me then, Mr. Lynch.“

Neil took out his phone determinedly and deleted the evidence saved on the cloud storage.

He was taking a bet. He was gambling that Joshua would get rid of Aura for Nellie and for his Mommy.

The things he saw on Joshua's computer the last time had troubled him, too.

Perhaps, this time, he could see for himself whether Joshua truly loved Luna or was just lying to himself.

Seeing Neil deleting the evidence, Joshua smiled faintly. “You truly trust me, huh?“

Neil looked at Joshua craftily. “Are you saying that you're not a person worthy of trust, Mr. Lynch?“

“I 'm just curious. If I was lying to you just now and I'm not going to do anything against Aura, what would you do?“

Neil picked up his fruit juice and took a sip. “If that's the case, I believe that you'111ose a lot of things, Mr. Lynch.“

Neil put the empty cup down and jumped down from the chair. “If there's nothing else, I'll leave now.“

Then, Neil turned around and waved his hands with his back facing Joshua. He strode off without looking back.

Lucas, who was standing behind Joshua, looked at Neil in shock. “Is...that how a six-year-old should be?“

He felt that this child was much more mature than him. It was terrifying. At the thought that this child was Luna's son, Lucas also found Luna terrifying.

Joshua gently picked his cup of coffee and took a sip. “I was pretty much like him when I was  six.“

Lucas was speechless. It was true that smart people are all the same, and dumb people have their own dumb ways.

Lucas took a deep breath and looked at the tablet on the table. “Should I take this to the police station?“

“There's no rush.“

Joshua picked the tablet up and looked at the evidence closely.

“Just watch out for Aura. We won't do anything to her for the time being.“

Lucas was stunned. “We're not going to do anything?“

Lucas had always been siding with Aura because she has been Joshua's fiancée for almost five years.

However, at that moment, the evidence was right in front of him. Aura nearly killed Nellie twice.

Even with all that, Joshua could say he was not going to do anything?

“What? You have something to say about that?“

“N-No...“ Lucas hesitated for a while. In the end, he could no longer hold back. “But, Sir, Ms. Gibson has done awful things. If you're not going to do anything to her, aren't you...indulging her?“

Joshua shut his eyes. He tapped his fingers on the table. “What Luna said previously made sense. If Luna Gibson could send Nellie back yet she wouldn't want to see me, it must be because I've hurt her too deeply previously.“

“But, if you keep giving in to Ms. Gibson and not endangering Nellie's life, wouldn't she be even more disappointed?“

“Hmm.“

Joshua's eyes remained closed as he smiled coldly. “I f you were in her shoes, what would you do?“

“I'll take Nellie away,“ Lucas replied firmly.

Joshua opened his eyes and swept Lucas a glance. “

Correct.“

He got up. “We need to enhance our security. Get people to watch out for Aura and...protect Nellie.“

Then, Joshua strode out of the cafe.

Lucas was rooted at his spot, perplexed. What on earth was his boss trying to get at?

Luna did not know what ways Nigel used to comfort Nellie, but the past two days, when Nellie visited her, she no longer cried nor threw tantrums. She would even tell Luna that she would take good care of herself.

Nellie's sudden growth and maturity made Luna feel empty. Since Nellie's problem was settled, it was time for her to deal with Aura.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 98 online free

The confusing thing was that Aura vanished into thin air for the past few days. There was no information about her.

The news said that Aura was sick, so she had to put off a few work engagements to rest at home.

She did not even attend awards ceremonies, which were her utmost priorities.

The news that Malcolm's men gave was that Aura was cooped up at home, and Joshua's men were protecting her.

Luna was a little lost the moment she heard the news.

Joshua's men, protecting Aura? Why? Were they afraid that someone  would do something  to them?

Please —as if it was not only Aura's doing all along.

At that thought, Luna smiled bitterly. Her bitterness turned into mockery.

It seemed like Joshua would care for the people he liked so cautiously.

Even if Aura tried to kill his daughter a few times, he was still worried about Aura. Moreover, he canceled her work engagements and sent men over to protect her.

His behavior matched the man that once killed her to protect Aura.

Yes, were they not the same way six years ago? Why should she be so surprised again?

“Luna.“

A knock suddenly came from the door of the patient's ward. Luna immediately kept her phone and looked up.

Lucas was standing by the door in white.

She furrowed her brows. “Anything I can help you with?“

“Tomorrow is Granny Lynch's birthday banquet. “ Lucas cleared his throat. “Mr. Lynch wants you to go shopping today to get ready for Nellie's clothes tomorrow. He plans to announce Nellie's identity together with Granny Lynch tomorrow, so she has to dress up a little.“

“Okay.“ Luna indeed had to prepare for Nellie. After all, Nellie was to stay alone with the Lynch family tomorrow onward.

After the birthday banquet, it was the day Nellie's identity would be made known. It would also be the day she had to be independent.

Thus, Luna decided to take Nellie shopping. Since things had happened during the few times she took Nellie out, she and Nellie went to the shopping mall with a dozen bodyguards this time.

Luna was always busy when they were overseas, and she never had a chance to go shopping with Nellie.

In the mall, Nellie was as excited as a buzzing bee. She zoomed around in the mall.

Until...

“Ouch! “

“Whose child is this? She almost killed me!" “I—I'm sorry..."

Luna, who was nearby picking out shoes, heard the commotion and immediately headed over.

“What happened?"

Seeing her arriving, Nellie rushed into her arms. “I... I accidentally crashed into that old lady..." she muttered, teary-eyed.

“How careless of you." Luna helplessly chided before looking up.

“Ma'am, are you alright?" Luna helped the woman on the floor up to her feet.

“I'm fine." That familiar voice made Luna widen her eyes. She looked closely and was instantly shocked, rooted on the spot.

The person that Nellie crashed into was no one other than her mother, Natasha Gibson!

“Mom, what's taking you so long?" Aura's voice came from a distance.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 99 online free

Natasha immediately replied loudly, “I'm here.“

Luna knew she should take Nellie and leave. She should not quibble with Aura in front of Natasha, but her legs were as heavy as lead. She could not move.

She had not seen her for six years. The middle -aged woman in front of her was her mother she had not seen for six years.

Luna felt her throat tightened and went dry. She wanted to say something but could not form her words.

“What's happening?“ At that moment, Aura came to them. She immediately noticed Nellie and Luna standing in front of Natasha.

Aura smiled mockingly. “What a coincidence.“

Joshua placed her under house arrest for the past few days. In the end, she used Natasha as an excuse to get a chance to go shopping.

The last thing she expected was to meet Luna and Nellie just as they started shopping.

Natasha was surprised. “Aura, you two know each other?“

“More than that, “ Aura harrumphed. “Mom, this is the kid I was telling you about. Nellie.“

Natasha's eyes immediately brightened. She quickly bent down and tugged at Nellie behind Luna. “This is Lulu's child?“

Natasha noticed how afraid Nellie was, thus she smiled at her passionately. “Don't be afraid. I am Grandma! “

Natasha then hugged Nellie. “Good child! “

After Luna Gibson's death six years ago, Natasha had never stepped foot in Banyan City. Even when Aura and Joshua got engaged, she did not attend as well.

Natasha loathed that the Lynch family killed her eldest daughter. She also hated them for taking her youngest daughter away, too.

If it were not for Aura's phone call, telling her that Luna's daughter was back, Natasha would have never come.

She initially wanted to reconcile with Nellie the next day after the birthday banquet, but who knew she would meet her in a mall already!

Natasha was so delighted and surprised that her hands embracing Nellie started trembling. “Nellie, let Grandma have a look at you! “

Facing this middle-aged woman's friendliness, Nellie was a little overwhelmed. She looked at Luna for help.

Luna shook her head at her, asking her not to resist.

Thus, Nellie obediently lifted her head and sweetly said, “Grandma.“

“My! What a good kid! “

Natasha was so excited that she cried. She wiped her tears and hugged Nellie. “Grandma is happy, too happy! “

Luna felt mixed emotions at the sight.

When she was overseas the past few years, the only people she missed were her parents.

When she gained consciousness after the accident, she got Malcolm to gather news on her parents. She found out that after her death, her mother fell sick and almost lost her life, too.

Her dad could no longer focus at work. In the end, he was forced to resign and could only sustain by doing odd jobs.

When she heard the news, Luna cried for a very long time in the patient's ward.

Her parents were probably the only people on earth who loved her and missed her.

It was her quest for vengeance that held her back from contacting them after she gave birth to her three children.

Malcolm agreed that he would take good care of them, promising that he would also not update her on their status. Malcolm did not let her know, and she did not dare to check up on them herself as well.

She was afraid that once she knew about their situation, she could not help but come back and expose herself before Joshua.

It had been six years.

After six years, her mother stood in front of her once more, but she no longer recognized Luna.

Natasha lifted her head and smiled at Luna. “You're Nellie's maid, right?“

Luna looked at her tensely and nodded with difficulty. “Yes, I am."

“Let me introduce myself. I am Nellie's Grandma."

Looking at how helpless the servant looked, Natasha felt that she looked a little familiar to her, but she could not recall where she had seen such a beautiful servant before.

Thus, she took a deep breath. “I know your job is to take care of Nellie, so I want to ask if I could take Nellie for a meal? I have no ill intention. I just..."

Natasha lowered her gaze. “Nellie is my eldest daughter's child. I don't know whether my eldest daughter is dead or alive. I want to get to know my granddaughter. Please?“

Luna pursed her lips. “Sure.“ She should have refused, but she could not find the courage to do so to her mother.

“Why bother discussing it with her?“ Aura rolled her eyes. “She's just a maid, and you're Nellie's grandmother. Why do you need to ask her permission just to have a meal with your granddaughter?“

Natasha turned back and glared heatedly at her. “ This is her job, so it's only right I have to ask! “

She then looked at Luna rather apologetically. “I'm so sorry. We've spoiled this daughter of mine from a young age...“

Luna looked at Natasha disconcertedly as she was rooted on the spot.

Natasha had once spoiled and loved Luna once as well, but she was an outsider at this moment.

After getting Luna's permission, Natasha hugged Nellie and headed to the restaurant downstairs.

Luna and Aura were following behind.

“Why do you bother? “ Aura crossed her arms and looked at Nellie's back domineeringly. She said coldly, “You almost lost your life a couple of times

all because of this kid. In the end, she's still my sister's daughter and my mother's granddaughter. We're her family. You? You're nothing, “ sneered Aura with raised brows.

Luna lowered her head and said nothing.

“Don't you worry, though. I can't do anything to that little b*tch right now. “ Aura swept a glance at the people looking at them from a distance.

“She's Joshua's precious baby.“

She could not do anything at that moment. At that thought, Aura despised Luna.

If it was not for the annoying maid, she would have gotten rid of Luna Gibson's b*stard of a child!

Things would not have turned out this way.

Luna looked at her flatly and said in a hushed voice, “ She's only a six-year-old child.“

Aura harrumphed coldly, “So what?“

Even if Nellie was a child, she was still troubled in her eyes!

Natasha brought Nellie to a restaurant. The waiter brought the menu to them.

Natasha dotingly placed the menu in front of Nellie. “ Do you know how to read? What do you want to eat?“

Nellie thought for a while then said decisively, “I want to order a caramel pudding.“

Natasha was a little surprised. “You like caramel pudding, too? Your mother loved this the most! She would always ask for caramel pudding every time we were out!"

Nellie secretly glanced at Luna. “Actually, I don't like caramel pudding. I'm ordering for Aunty."

Nellie had read Luna's diaries without her knowledge, and she knew Luna missed having caramel pudding with her mother.

Although Luna was assuming a different identity already, this was considered as fulfilling her wishes, right?

Natasha's smile on her face stiffened.

She smiled and looked at Luna. “You like caramel pudding, too? Nellie's mother used to love caramel pudding..."

Luna lowered her head and tried to not let her tears fall. “What a coincidence."

“Yes." Natasha sighed and said, “That silly girl. I told her to not marry Joshua Lynch. A person like him would never treat her well, but she refused to listen to me. She even almost cut off ties with me..."
