Ch. 981..990

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 981

Luna did not expect this question from Christian.

She gripped onto her phone and was silent for a long while. She could not help but clear her throat.

“Christian, what kind of joke is this? You're Nigel's and Nellie's cousin. Although our age difference isn't that huge, in terms of seniority...“

Christian, on the other end of the line, chuckled. “If you're not planning to be with Joshua, is seniority in the family that important?

“Rather than saying although our age difference isn't huge but due to seniority...

“I'd rather put it this way: Although seniority is in the way, our age gap isn't that wide.“

Then, Christian cleared his throat and continued seriously, “Luna, aren't you going to consider it? “

Luna paused a little. Her throat tightened. “ Christian, stop pulling my leg, I— “

“I'm already being so serious, yet you could still hear that I 'm joking?“ Before Luna could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Christian's mischievous laughter.

He chuckled loudly. “Yeah, I'm just pulling your leg, alright. We do have quite a huge age difference. Also, I don't think I could be a father to Nigel and Nellie— those  two mischievous devils. I'll be so pissed off.“

Then, Christian stopped smiling and suppressed the misery in his heart. He looked at the online ticketing system on the screen seriously.

“We'll stick according to our original plan and prepare thoroughly. Bonnie's men will continue sifting through, trying to locate Aura's position, while you stay in Banyan City to hold the fort. Wait for my news.“

Seeing how Christian was finally serious once again, Luna let out a sigh and continued instructing Christian a little while more before hanging up the call.

When he hung up the call with Luna, Christian lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling, smiling bitterly. He knew he did not have a chance with Luna.

Whether it be age or their relationship, Joshua was still rooted in her heart in the end.

This was a barrier that none of them could overcome.

However, if the Violet Lewis case could be overturned and Luna could get hold of something on Fiona, maybe even exposing Fiona's true colors in front of Joshua...

He was willing to risk it.

After all, he was still young. Unlike Joshua, he did not need to consider much when liking someone.

He wanted to do something for Luna so she could not forget him.

After hanging up the call with Christian, Luna took Nigel's computer and tried a few times. She still could not get any info on the doctor that tried to resuscitate Shaun and Violet Lewis back then.

She did not sleep throughout the night before, plus she was busy the entire morning.

By noon, sleepiness overwhelmed her. She finally could no longer hold on and fell asleep.

When she woke up, it was already eight in the evening.

There were a few messages on her phone, quietly laying close by.

Bonnie wrote, (Luna, my men searched for the entire day, and we still couldn't locate Aura. Perhaps Banyan City is too huge, or she's hiding very well. I'll get them to continue working on it the next day.

(As for Robert Jenson's medical team, I've increased my price to try to get them, but they still refused. They said that their client gave them much more. I don't know who their client is. They're willing to spend more than me!]

Christian wrote, (I'm at the security checkpoint, waiting to board the plane. Don't worry, I 'll try my best to uncover the truth! ]

Nigel typed, (Mommy, don't worry. Nellie and I are doing well here. Fiona can't do anything to us. Great- Granny is on the same side as us! Don't worry! ]

Luna scrolled through the messages. A warm feeling washed over her.

Although she was once blind, falling for a man like Joshua, which led to a series of tragic catastrophes at that moment...

There were always still people who missed her and looked out for her when she was in trouble.

Luna replied to the messages one by one. Just when she wanted to put her phone down, her phone vibrated.

It was a message from Anne.

(Luna, are you up? Summer is almost over, John said that there's a firework celebration event called Seize the End of Summer by the seaside. Do you want to join us? You'll feel better in such a lively event.

There's barbecue, sand, and fireworks. There's also good-looking hunks!]

Looking at the messages on her phone, Luna got up from the bed. She looked at her cold and empty room, then at the dark skies. She rubbed her famished stomach.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 982

In the end, Luna decided to have a look.

She had gone through so much that summer.

Seizing the end of the summer and bidding farewell to the unhappy incidents was a good choice, too.

The more important thing was that she was indeed hungry. She was all alone at home, and she was too lazy to make her meals.

Thus, after asking Anne about where the event was taking place, Luna simply packed up and hailed a taxi there.

Outside the Blue Bay Villa, in a corner somewhere...

Zach took his phone out. “Mr. Lynch, Ms. Luna hailed a taxi and left. Should we follow her?“

A cold man's voice came from the other end of the line, “Go with her.“ Then, he hung up when a knock came from the door of his study.

“Joshua.“

The person that entered was the aggrieved-looking Fiona.

She was still in her usual white dress, looking extremely frail.

“Joshua, Granny Lynch has been targeting me. I don't feel like having dinner at home tonight. Let's go out, please?“

Joshua calmly furrowed his brows. He lifted his gaze and looked at her. “Sounds good, too.“

Although this was only the second day Granny Lynch and the kids came over to stay, throughout the past day, Granny Lynch would make things difficult for Fiona, targeting her, as long as she was free.

Granny Lynch seemed to have used all the tactics she once used on Luna on Fiona.

Luna could endure them, and she also had a tough and stubborn character. She had her way of dealing with them, so she rarely came to complain to Joshua.

However, Fiona was different.

As long as Granny Lynch made things difficult for her, she would immediately run over to Joshua and complain.

Throughout the day, Joshua suffered, too. He was miserable.

At that moment, when Fiona suggested heading out for a meal, Joshua agreed that they needed time to cool it off outside, to change to a different environment.

He stood up. “Where do you want to go?“

Fiona pursed her lips. “I heard there's a fireworks event tonight called Seize the End of Summer. I've never attended such an event before. I hear it's lively and romantic. There's good food, too. Can we go?“

Fiona blinked her eyes and looked at Joshua. “I 'm sure you've not been to such an event too, right?

Let's go together, shall we?“

Joshua inexplicably thought of Luna upon Fiona's words.

Back then, when he got married to Luna, Luna also had such a look in her eyes, hoping that he would bring her to the summer fireworks celebration, but he was always busy.

Up until that moment, he never truly took her to attend such an event.

Joshua sighed. He wanted to say something when his phone rang.

It was a message from Zach. (Ms. Luna is here.]

A photo was attached with the message.

In the photo was Luna being next to Anne and John in front of a barbecue stall. She was smiling while waiting for her barbecue.

The fireworks and fire lit her face up. She was extraordinarily gorgeous.

Looking at Joshua looking at his phone not saying a word, Fiona bit her lips. “Joshua, you don't want to go.”

Joshua kept his phone. He walked in front and held Fiona's hand.

“Let's go."

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 983

Luna, Anne, and John had a lot of good food at the fireworks celebration event.

They knew that Luna could not take alcohol, so John deliberately went far away and bought a few different flavors of beverages for Luna and Anne to pick.

“I have known for some time that the fireworks celebration takes place every year, but I was always busy, and I've never been here before. I never thought that it'd be so pretty! “

Anne lamented while looking at Luna, “How is it? Do you feel your unhappiness caused by Joshua vanishing into thin air after coming here?“

Luna shrugged. “To be honest with you, not that much.“

Being there made her think of her past even more. She had been to Banyan City's fireworks celebration event before.

The year she just got married to Joshua, she was still a young girl full of dreams and hopes.

When she heard the servants at home mention that there would be a fireworks celebration event every summer, Luna would always find the opportunity to get Joshua to accompany her.

Back then, her intentions were simple. When she got married to Joshua, he did not like her. Luna thought that attending such a romantic event like the

fireworks celebration, Joshua would slowly come to like her.

Alas, later down the line...

Joshua would reject Luna every time she brought it up. In the end, when she was sad, Aura came to her. She told Luna that if her husband would not accompany her, at least she still had a younger sister.

On the fireworks celebration that year, Luna and Aura had the time of their lives.

It was from that day onward, her disappointment toward Joshua grew. She also got closer to Aura.

There were many times when Joshua cast her aside, she was thankful that she had Aura by her side when she was in sadness.

However, she did not expect...

In the end, it was Aura and Joshua who gave her the final fatal blow.

Looking at the fireworks from afar, Aura's bright smile when she accompanied Luna back then inexplicably appeared on Luna's mind.

Luna sighed and came to her senses.

“Still, I thank both of you. You two could spend time alone together, yet you let me tag along.“

Anne pursed her lips and looked at Luna in rebuke.

“What are you talking about? You're our friend. How could we just let you stay home all alone?“

“Yes.“

John gently passed a salad to Anne. “Have some lighter food. You've had a lot of barbecue.“ Anne pursed her lips. “Are you calling me fat?“ John was helpless. “Sweet lord, I'm not...“

Luna sat by the side, listening to the couple bickering lovingly. She helplessly rubbed the middle of her brows.

After all, she was almost done with her meal. She was not that hungry anymore.

“You guys go ahead. I 'll walk around.“ Then, Luna got up and left.

Anne furrowed her brows and wanted to stop Luna when John pulled her back.

“Let her be on her own for a while. She has been through so much in such a short while. She needs some time to process it.“

Anne pursed her lips. In the end, she sighed and turned around.

“Joshua Lynch?“

The moment she turned around, Anne saw the man being held by Fiona.

At that moment, Joshua and Fiona were holding hands as they stood elegantly and regally before Anne.

Anne furrowed her brows. “Why are you two here?“

Fiona looked at Joshua. Her eyes looking at Anne were filled with condescension.

“Joshua, you know them?“

Joshua furrowed his brows and nodded.

“This is Luna's friend, Anne, and her boyfriend, John."

The moment John saw that it was Joshua, he immediately smiled and reached his hand out.

“Mr. Lynch! Hello, hello! We've met before in business meetings! "

Joshua calmly shook John's hand and retreated his hand back immediately. “Have fun." Then, Joshua pulled Fiona and left.

Looking at the two of them leaving affectionately, Anne could not help but roll her eyes.

“What a pair of b*tches."

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 984

Anne's voice wafted into the night breeze into Joshua and Fiona's ears.

Fiona furrowed her brows. She subconsciously wanted to reason with Anne, yet Joshua stopped her.

He came there tonight to see Luna and to accompany Fiona to relieve her boredom.

He did not want to cause any trouble.

Thus, Joshua pretended he did not hear them and pulled Fiona forward. He only took a few steps when his phone rang at an inappropriate time.

This time, it was from his company. It was from work.

Seeing Joshua getting busy, Fiona bit her lip a little and headed to one corner of the fireworks celebration.

Actually, she had another purpose for coming there that night, besides watching the fireworks with Joshua.

That was to find an opportunity to get in touch with Aura's people amidst the dazzling crowd. She needed to get something.

After Fiona complained to Aura about Granny Lynch, Aura told her there was something that could silence Granny Lynch. Fiona was there specifically for that thing that night.

She heard that the person getting in touch with her was one of Aura's servants, who was injured and not very intelligent.

Fiona barely walked toward the agreed meet-up point for a few steps when she bumped into Anne and John, who were walking around as they held hands.

Anne was still as usual. When she saw Fiona, she immediately rolled her eyes rudely and looked away.

John, on the other hand, politely greeted Fiona out of respect.

“Ms. Blake.“

Fiona rolled her eyes at Anne before looking at John.

“You're such a handsome and good -looking man, yet you have such a resentful, ugly, vixen as your girlfriend.“

Anne was already quite against Fiona because of Luna. That night, she had some alcohol, so she got bolder under the influence of alcohol.

When she heard Fiona's jabs, Anne immediately harrumphed coldly and glared at Fiona.

“Hey, sicko, who are you talking about? Who are you calling a resentful vixen?

“Oh, right, you're not a resentful vixen—you're just pure toxic! You constantly b*tch about others to Joshua. All you think is how to scheme against others. You're toxic! “

Fiona was completely stunned by Anne's words.

She never would have thought that Luna's gentle, timid, and petite-looking friend would be so fierce!

She bit her lip and turned to look at John with teary eyes.

“Mr. Young, look at how fierce your girlfriend is. I was just casually talking. Look at how she's glaring at me and scolding me. She even called me a toxic woman.“

John cleared his throat and protected Anne in his arms.

“Ms. Blake, don't mind her. My Anne is just straightforward. She's fond of doing things with an eye for an eye. If you didn't cross the line when you spoke of her, she wouldn't do that to you, too.“

Fiona did not expect that John did not buy her tactic. She immediately bit her lip and rushed up to grab Anne's hand.

“Ms. Zimmer. How could you say such things? I 'm very sad...“

The moment Fiona grabbed her hands, Anne felt her fingers hurting from Fiona's fingernails scratching her.

She immediately shoved Fiona away.

Thud!

Fiona fell on the sand. She cried and pretended to try to get up but could not.

In the end, one of the onlookers helped her up. Once Fiona got up, she cried and reprimanded, “We are all Luna's friends! How could you do this to me?“

Luna had circled the beach once. She was just about to look for Anne and John when she noticed them being with Fiona, surrounded by a group of onlookers in the middle.

Luna was anxious and immediately strode over. She barely took a few steps and walked past a boulder when she was pulled aside by someone.

That person grabbed her arm from behind. “Luna."

That familiar voice...

Luna felt her blood freeze. She slowly turned around.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 985

It was completely dark behind the boulder, save only the vague, dim light from the fireworks and moonlight in the distance.

Behind the dark boulder stood an emaciated man. He was so thin that his facial features almost changed.

He was as thin as a rake, but his eyes were still elegant and gentle-looking.

“Luna.“ That man smiled. “I never would've thought we'd meet under such circumstances.“

Luna rushed forward and immediately hugged him. He was so thin that it was almost uncomfortable hugging him.

Tears fell. Luna hugged him tightly. “Theo, I thought that you were really gone! I thought I won't be able to see you again in this life! I knew that the email must've been you! It was you! “

Theo hugged her. His eyes were rather teary, too. This was the first time that Luna hugged him first, yet it was under such circumstances.

Luna's tears wet his shoulders.

Theo sighed and gently lifted his hands to pat on Luna's back.

“It's fine, it's fine. I 'm alive. Neil is still alive, too.“

Luna hugged him for a long while before letting go of him. Luna wiped her tears away.

“Theo.“

After the intense emotions, the atmosphere was a little awkward. Luna took a deep breath and looked at the tear stains on Theo's shoulder, and she laughed awkwardly.

“I was too excited just now.“

“It's fine.“

Not seeing him for a very long time, Theo was still like back then, as gentle as a lamb.

He looked at Luna's eyes. “I 'm also very excited. I never thought I 'd still have the chance to see you.“

Luna sniffled.

“Can you tell me what happened to you and Neil all this while?“

“It's a long story. “ Theo looked into the distance. “ Time is short right now. I'm here to finish a mission, so I can't waste too much time. I '11 make it short. “

Theo took a deep breath and continued, “Actually, back then, Alice and Aura were connected.

Everything Alice knew about you came from Aura. That night when we met with the accident, Alice's men had already tricked me and Neil away, but no one thought that Aura's men would suddenly appear.

“Aura arranged for the explosion, too. They took off Neil and my clothes. Then, they cut our arms with a knife. After bleeding all over the floor, they created the explosion.

“For the past month, Aura has been using assorted drugs to brainwash Neil and me, wanting us to forget the past.“

Luna secretly clenched her fists tightly upon Theo's words. Sure enough, Neil no longer remembered her. It was a surprise, yet not unexpected.

After all, Neil was so close to his siblings. If Aura did not wipe away Neil's memories, how could she control him?

“Neil is still young. The drugs worked quickly on him. He has already forgotten the past.

“But I...I didn't lose my memories, and it's probably due to the dosage of the drug. To protect myself, I've been pretending that I can't remember anything.

“Aura would still be suspicious of me from time to time, so I could only find a way to secretly contact you.“

Then, Theo took a deep breath. “I can only say so much for now. I still have a mission to complete.“

Luna paused for a while.

“Then...where are Aura and you all right now?“ Theo was silent for a while.

“We don't stay in a fixed place. I'm not from Banyan

City. There are a lot of places I can't describe to you.“ “I still have one last question.“

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 986

Luna took a deep breath. “Fiona Blake. Is she under Aura's orders?“

“Yes, and no.“ Theo furrowed his brows. “Fiona is rather special. She was first picked by Joshua, and only then was she used by Aura.“

Then, he looked at Luna deeply. “The suggestion I can give you now is to get Fiona to leave Joshua. Aura returned to Banyan City this time. Everything she did on the surface was through Fiona. As long as you get rid of Fiona, Aura would be forced to use her other two aces, which are Neil and me.“

Then, Theo turned and left.

He only walked for a few steps when he suddenly thought of something. He went in close to Luna's ears and instructed her before turning and leaving.

Luna stood in the same spot, looking at him leave, for a long time.

It was only when a scream came from the crowd behind her did she come to her senses.

Anne!

Luna immediately collected her thoughts and rushed into the crowd, only making it through with much effort.

The scene in front of her baffled her.

On the beach, John was kneeling on the ground, and there was blood all over. Blood was gushing from his arm. The weapon fell to the side. It was a knife used to slice meat from the barbecue.

Anne was crying while tearing her skirt off, using it as a bandage to dress John's wound.

“Call an ambulance! Quick! “

At that moment, the weak Fiona was sitting in the distance wretchedly. Her white dress was dyed red with blood.

She was on the floor, sobbing. “Why did you stop me? Let me die! Just let me die! “

John bore through the excruciating pain and looked at her coldly. “If I knew you were to kill yourself, I would never have stopped you.“

After Fiona and Anne argued for a while, Fiona quickly rushed over to the barbecue stand and grabbed a knife. John thought that Fiona was about to hurt Anne, so he quickly snatched the knife away from her.

He never thought that Fiona was trying to kill herself!

Luna instantly understood what had happened from the scene and the conversation in front of her.

She immediately rushed to the shops by the side and requested a first aid kit from the shop owner. She burrowed herself through the crowds and passed the first aid kit to Anne.

“Use this! “

Anne accepted the first aid kit and dressed John's wound. Tears could not help but fall from her face.

“The knife was used to slice raw meat. If you get infected...“

Then, she turned to glare at Fiona. “I'll never forgive you! “

Anne never would have expected this. She was just simply bickering with Fiona, as women do. They went back and forth without a clear winner, yet Fiona would actually take a knife like that.

At that moment, she said she picked the knife because she wanted to kill herself. However, the moment she picked the knife up, only she knew whether she wanted to kill someone else or kill herself!

“Don't look at me like that...“

Fiona cried terribly. “How would I know he'd rush forward? I only wanted to kill myself, yet he wanted to stop me. Those that don't know any better would think that he's my boyfriend instead of yours! “

“You! “ Anne glared at her. She wanted to flare up when a figure in black parted through the crowd and walked over.

Joshua came over and hugged Fiona, carrying her in his arms.

“What happened?“

Luna furrowed her brows and lifted her head. “Mr. Lynch— “

Before she could say anything, Joshua aloofly interrupted, “I just saw you hugging someone behind the boulder a moment ago, yet you're here

right now. You've made out so quickly?”

Luna turned tense instantly upon Joshua's words.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 987

Looking at Luna's miserably pale face, not saying anything as she stood still, Joshua's gaze darkened even more.

He was spot on, then.

The person hugging the thin man behind the boulders was Luna. At that thought, Joshua's gaze turned even colder.

There he was, worried that Luna might be lonely since there was no one to talk to her after Christian left Banyan City so suddenly.

What happened then?

In less than half a day, she found another person!

If he was not standing by the edge of the beach on a phone call, he would not have noticed how loose and easy Luna was.

She was not like that before. At that thought, Joshua was even more convinced that Nigel and Fiona were right—Luna was mentally ill.

If she was not mentally ill, how could she do such baffling things?

Luna's heart was in suspense when she saw Joshua's cold gaze. She bit her lip and looked at Joshua.

“W—What else did you see?“

Did Joshua see Theo? Did he know that the other guy was Theo?

However, Luna's nervousness was interpreted differently by Joshua. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Luna's miserably pale face. His gaze turned colder.

Why was she so nervous?

Could it be that when she was behind the boulder with the other man, it was not as simple as a hug?

At that thought, rage appeared in his eyes. “I think we really need to find someone to cure your mental illness! “

Luna glared at him. “I said I'm not ill!“

Then, she turned around and helped John up together with Anne.

“You want to talk about illness? You and Fiona are the ones that are sick! Since both of you are here together, why don't you hold onto each other tightly? If you're next to her, don't mention killing herself: It won't have anything to do with us, even if she wanted to slice her own abdomen open!

“You weren't next to her. Who knew whether she wanted to kill us or kill herself when she picked up the knife? John went to stop her and snatched the knife away, and she hurt him! “

Joshua furrowed his brows. Only then did he notice that the white sleeves on John's arm had been sliced through. Although his arm had been bandaged, from the blood seeping through his clothes and the bloodstains on the sand, his injury seemed serious.

Joshua turned to look at Fiona in his arms.

“Fiona, what happened?“

Seeing that Joshua finally looked at her, Fiona wiped away her tears. Her tone was extremely aggrieved.

“Ms. Zimmer had been hostile to me from the moment we met. You know about this, Joshua. I only bumped into them when I was walking around.

Then, she started spewing harsh words.

“I was pissed so I retorted. She actually said that no matter how hard I try, I 'll never be as important as Luna to you.“

Fiona cried so badly  that  she began to gasp for air.

“Joshua, you know, my will to live right now is just to be with you and enjoy the time left with you, but Ms. Zimmer kept saying how I meant nothing to you. I

couldn't take it, so I ran over to the barbecue stand and picked up the knife. I wanted to kill myself.

“But perhaps Mr. Young thought badly of me because of his terrible character. He thought I picked the knife up because I wanted to hurt Anne, so he rushed over.

“Then, it became this.“

When she finished recounting, Fiona was crying so hard that she was spent. She nestled herself in Joshua's arms.

“Joshua...“

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 988

“I know I'm sensitive, but if you really want to blame someone, it's not my fault...“

“You're spewing nonsense! “

Anne was instantly infuriated at Fiona's words. “ You're lying! “ Since when did she say that Fiona had no place in Joshua's heart? She only warned Fiona to be careful lest they find evidence of her faking her illness when she was in a rage.

Then, Fiona immediately rushed over to pick up the knife.

At that moment, Anne and John thought that Fiona was aggravated by that, so she wanted to murder them. That was why John went to stop her.

All of a sudden, Fiona did a complete 18o. She twisted their words, changing what they said!

Anne glared at Fiona. Her eyes were filled with rage.

“I never once mentioned Joshua! Whether Joshua has you in his heart or whether you could match up to Luna is none of my bloody business! “

Joshua furrowed his brows upon Anne's crude remarks.

“Then, what did you say just now?“

Anxious, Anne immediately spoke what she thought of, “I asked Fiona to be more polite to Luna, or we'd find evidence of her faking her illness! “

The atmosphere was instantly silenced upon Anne's words. Joshua looked at Anne with a darkened expression. Then, he looked at Luna.

“Is this what you tell your friends?“

Anne and Fiona barely crossed paths. The only common denominator was Luna.

Therefore, what Anne said about Fiona faking her illness must have come from Luna.

Luna was stunned. She secretly clenched her fists tightly. At that moment, she did not have solid proof to prove that Fiona was faking her illness. At that moment, if she were to go up against Joshua, that would mean letting Fiona know that she was investigating this matter.

However, if she did not say anything, perhaps Fiona might think that this was only Anne's thoughts.

Thus, Luna remained silent.

Seeing how Luna said nothing, Fiona was secretly delighted. A sense of delight flashed across her eyes. Then, she buried herself in Joshua's arms, crying even more violently.

“Joshua, did you hear what she said? What does it mean, I 'm faking my illness? If I could be healthy, who wouldn't want to be healthy? Who'd fake their terminal illness on this earth? To fake that they only had a year left to live?“

Then, Fiona pretended as if her illness was about to flare up. Her breath was short, and her body went limp.

Joshua swept a glance at Luna, then at Anne. He wanted to say something when he suddenly felt that something was wrong with Fiona in his arms.

He lowered his head and looked at Fiona's pale face, her eyes shut tight. His heart skipped a beat.

Her illness must have flared up due to the provocations from Anne!

“If anything were to happen to Fiona, I'll never forgive all of you!" He spat out coldly, carried Fiona u p, and stormed off.

Luna stood in the same spot, looking at Joshua carrying Fiona away silently.

In the end, she noticed Joshua placing Fiona in the backseat. Then, he went around to the car to the driver's seat.

She also saw that someone secretly threw something into the car through the window from outside.

A fair slender hand accepted the item.

Luna sneered. Was Fiona not in the backseat? Did she not pass out? Why could she still accept things?

What a medical miracle.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 989

After looking at Joshua's car leaving, Luna turned around and looked at John.

“Are you alright?“

John shook his head, his face pale. “I'm fine.“

Then, he turned to look at Joshua's car leaving. He sighed heavily and said, “Luna, Anne said things without thinking just now... Would that affect your plans?“

Luna shook her head. “What could she possibly affect?“

Looking at Fiona, she probably had guessed that Luna would investigate into her faking her illness, no?

Since she dared to fake her illness flaring up in front of them, that was a provocation. She was fearless.

The more Fiona was like that, the more curious Luna got.

What on earth did Fiona have on Robert Jenson that she could be so sure Robert Jenson would not retract his diagnosis and expose her?

“John...“ Anne's voice came from behind. She sounded heartbroken.

Luna turned around and saw Anne hugging John's injured arm. Tears involuntarily fell from her face.

“It's all my fault.“

If she did not roll her eyes at Fiona from a distance, Fiona would not have openly provoked her. They would not have fought. If they did not fight, Fiona would not have picked up the knife and John would not have gotten hurt.

Luna's plan would not be ruined by her mindless blurt a moment ago either.

The more Anne thought, the guiltier she felt. “I'm such a failure.“

John sighed. He brushed her hair and put them behind her ears with his uninjured hand.

“You're not. You're an adorable little idiot.“ Their interaction was sickeningly sweet. Luna shuddered.

She took a deep breath and turned to look at the lovey-dovey couple.

“Don't worry. John's injuries won't be in vain today. Sooner or later, I'll make Fiona pay for all that she's done.“

Then, she waved her hands at them. “Thank you for inviting me here. Also, thank you for the barbecue. I gained a lot today! Goodbye! “

Luna immediately turned and left. She went to the main road, hailed a taxi, and got in.

“To Blue Bay Villa.“

“You're going back so early?“ The driver drove while smiling at her. “It's the fireworks celebration event tonight. The fireworks aren't finished yet, and

you're going back already?“

“Mmh. “ Luna smiled a little. “I 've already seen the most beautiful thing tonight.“ The moment she said that, a huge patch of fireworks bloomed in the night skies, lighting the dark skies brightly.

Luna lowered her eyes and looked at the flyer of tonight's event. It wrote, (Seize the End of Summer].

She thought to herself that she had already seized the end of the summer. She had already found two of the most  important  people to her at  that moment.

However, at the thought of Theo, Luna furrowed her brows and lifted her head.

“Driver, please stop by the pharmacy if you see one. I'll need to get some stuff.“

An hour later, the taxi stopped at the Blue Bay Villa entrance.

Luna carried the medication she got from the pharmacy. She called Nigel while entering.

“Are you asleep?“

“Nope.“ Nigel's voice sounded serious from the other end of the call. “I'm helping Nellie out.“

Luna smiled. “What are you helping her with?“

Nigel pursed his lips. “Nellie said that when we used to stay together, she had your designs as her inspirations. Now that we're not living with you, she couldn't get your designs anymore. She's a little stuck while designing. I'm helping her to search for your previous design sketches online.“

Luna paused a little before laughing.

She took her coat off as she put the call on the loudspeaker.

Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy chapter 990

“Why is Nellie suddenly designing again?“

When Nellie was diagnosed with autism, she would hug her sketch board and design every day. She would not interact with anybody.

Thus, later on, the doctor forbade Nellie from designing, forcing her to put her focus on something else. That was also why when Nellie recovered, Luna also did not allow her to continue designing.

Nellie was also understanding, and she did not continue sketching. However, why was she already sketching designs only after being with Joshua for less than two days?

Was it because it was too boring there?

“It's not because I 'm bored,“ Nellie's child -like yet honest voice rang through. “I promised Great- Granny that I'd design a set of jewelry especially for her.“

Nellie sounded happy. “Great-Granny has been living with Fiona for the past few days. She already starts to think that you're a good person, Mommy. She even praised you for your exceptional character, that you could actually educate me so well, to actively give her gifts! “

Luna was amused by Nellie's smugness and laughed.

She rubbed the middle of her brows. “That's because all of you are understanding  and mature children.“

If Nellie and Nigel did not have a good nature, even if she worked hard, they would still turn out to be barbarians.

Nellie snickered. “It's because of your good genes! “

Looking at the women praising each other, Nigel rubbed the middle of his brows and took the phone over.

“Mommy, aren't you at the fireworks event with Godmom eating? You're back home already?“

“Mmh.“

Luna took a deep breath and hesitated for a while. In the end, she still did not tell Nigel about Theo and Neil.

It was still too early. Also, even if Nigel and Nellie knew about it, they could not help much other than being anxious.

Thus, Luna took a deep breath and omitted the incident of meeting Theo at the beach.

“Mmh, I'm back. When we were at the beach, John got hurt by Fiona.“

Nellie's eyes instantly widened. “Is he fine?“

Nellie had met Anne's boyfriend before. He was a young and handsome uncle.

“He's fine, but I want to teach Fiona a lesson. I called you all to get your help...“

Nigel and Nellie looked at each other, then they said in unison to the phone, “Tell us, Mommy, what is it?“

Luna was amused by the two of them being so serious. She helplessly smiled. “It's simple.

Tomorrow...“

The next morning, Fiona got up early and went downstairs.

Granny Lynch was having breakfast with Nigel and Nellie.

When Granny Lynch saw Fiona coming down, she harrumphed coldly and started being passive- aggressive.

“Princess Blake, why so early today? There's nothing that you can eat here. If you want breakfast,

you can wait until we finish eating until there's no salty food that you don't like to eat on the table. You can get the servants to make a meal for you afterward.“

Fiona slightly furrowed her brows.

She smiled and suppressed her loathing for Granny Lynch, taking a seat in front of Granny Lynch.

“Granny, what are you talking about? I never said that I hated salty foods. I only prefer sweet foods for breakfast more. I can still eat salty foods.“

Granny Lynch harrumphed coldly and said nothing.

Nellie, on the other hand, politely pushed some food on the table toward Fiona.

“Thank you, Nellie. How kind of you! “

Fiona smiled gently. She even ruffled Nellie's hair gently.

“You and Nigel have been here for almost two days already, right? Do you miss Luna a lot?"

Then, Fiona raised her gaze and looked at Granny Lynch. “Granny, I know you like Luna and hate me. I know the kids miss Luna, too, but Joshua forbids Luna to move in. I can't do anything, too...

“So, why don't we invite Luna here tonight and have dinner together? It'll be lively."
