Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy Chapter 1043
Because of Joshua’s appearance, Luna who had been in pain the entire day, finally received a painkiller. When the medicine took effect, the pain faded, and Luna was finally able to lie on the bed, quietly looking at her smashed little finger. The finger that originally belonged to her now hung from her hand lifelessly, like a piece of décor. Luna remembered the words that the man said that morning when he smashed her finger. “Boss said, one finger a day. The number of fingers she can preserve depends on how long Mr. Lynch wants her to stay here.”She looked at her fingers sadly. After staying here for ten days, would she become completely disabled? But who knew that her hands were capable of creating world-class jewelry designs…At that moment, the door to her hospital ward opened. Joshua stood there, sorrow and despair written clearly on his face. Hearing noises from the entrance, Luna paused and turned toward the door unconsciously. Immediately, she saw the tall and lean man. Pre

Joshua’s entire body stiffened. He turned and looked at Luna. Her eyes were filled with her desperate plea. She tugged at his sleeve, both her voice and her gaze seemed equally inferior. He looked at her and pain flashed through his eyes. Even though in the past, he wished countless times that she would stay by his side in such an obedient manner…but he knew she was just doing this because she wanted to escape, to avoid treatment.He heaved out a long sigh and removed her fingers that were grasping onto his sleeve one by one. “Luna, I know you don’t mean what you said. Instead of talking to me, you should cooperate with the doctors and receive treatment, that way, you can recover as soon as possible.”He stood up and turned, looking at Luna, his words loud and clear as he said, “After you recover, I’ll bring Nellie and Nigel along, the three of us will welcome you home. I will also personally send all of you away from Banyan City, to live the life that you want. Don't torture yours

Outside the asylum. In the black Masevati, Nellie crossed her arms over her chest and curled up in a corner of the car in anger. “Nigel, how could you? I didn’t even have much time to talk to Mommy!” Not far away from her, Nigel had his laptop open on his lap, his short fingers tapping away at the keyboard as if he could not hear her at all.Nellie felt even worse now. She snatched Nigel’s laptop out of his lap. “Stop playing! Didn’t you see what Mommy looked like just now!”The little girl bit her lip, aggrieved tears swimming in her eyes. “Daddy lied! Mommy is suffering here, I can tell! Nigel, you’re a bad guy too! You stopped me from spending more time with Mommy!”She came here happily today, thinking that Mommy was really just sick. But after she arrived, she realized this was not a hospital at all, it was more like a prison that kept her Mommy locked up! Seeing his sister’s reaction, Nigel sighed faintly. He took his laptop out of her hands and showed his sister the inf

“My biggest wish is that I can look for Neil together with Mommy and Nigel.”Hearing Nellie mention Neil, Joshua’s arm that was wrapped around her trembled slightly. A moment later, he turned and glanced at Nigel. “You think that Neil isn’t dead too?” Nigel’s fingers continued tapping away at the keyboard. He glanced at his father deeply and said, “If I told you now that I think Neil is still alive, would you think that I’m crazy and lock me up in an asylum?”Joshua’s eyebrows screwed tightly together. “I’ll repeat myself, your mommy was sent here for treatment because she is mentally ill.”Nigel laughed, “Mr. Lynch, do you really think that the doctors' diagnosis of Mommy is correct?"Joshua nodded. “Mr. Robert Jenson has been practicing medicine for more than 40 years and has diagnosed hundreds of thousands of patients. He has never misdiagnosed a patient’s condition."How could his diagnosis be wrong? Nigel narrowed his eyes. That old man was a master at hiding. He sighed

Even though Mr. Chase from the asylum promised Joshua that he would arrange for nurses to supervise Luna to prevent her from ‘harming herself’. But he knew better than anyone that Luna’s finger was not the product of her self-harm.But even so, pretenses had to be upheld, he might not be able to handle it if Joshua decided to take action against them. So, he recruited a few temporary workers from a recruitment agency in the city center and interviewed them briefly. He did not even bother reading their resumes and immediately ordered them to supervise Luna. After all, Luna had been injected with the medication that they prepared, she would be exhausted. Even getting out of bed would be a struggle, it was impossible for her to escape, what more hurt herself. Hiring these extra workers was just a show to placate Joshua. In the evening. Luna lay on the bed, watching as the nurse arranged for a few dark-skinned men to guard her door, and a cold sneer appeared on her lips. What sort

The guard at the entrance never expected that the few temporary workers recruited from the recruitment agency would kidnap one of the patients, so he just registered their names in the visitor’s log and allowed them to leave. The minivan flew across the expressway in the wee hours of the morning. When the effects of the painkillers faded gradually, Luna was in so much that she curled up in Gwen’s arms, trembling in pain. “Hold on, Luna. Hold on.” Gwen hugged her friend tightly, tears streaming down her face, the van flying toward Sea City. “We’ll be there soon!” They did not dare to stay in Banyan City for too long, what more looking for a doctor to treat Luna. In the past, both Luke and Gwen did not believe that Joshua would be so cruel and ruthless to Luna. Until today…only now did they realize how cold-blooded he could be!The minivan drove on for a few hours and finally when the sun peeked on the horizon, they arrived at a private hospital owned by Luke in Sea City. An X-r

Luke did not reply. Joshua did not put much thought into it. Both of them were busy men, they often forgot to reply to each other’s messages. He headed downstairs and had breakfast with the children, then departed for his office. The moment he sat down in his chair; he received a call from Robert Jenson. “Mr. Lynch! I would like to ask, where did your son and daughter take my wife, Janice? Why did she disappear after eating ice cream with your two children yesterday? Her phone, passport, and wallet are still in the hotel, but she’s gone.” On the other end of the phone, Robert was furious. “The CCTV cameras in the hotel last spotted her going to the ice cream shop next to the waterpark with your two children. Don’t you think you owe me an explanation?!”Joshua’s eyebrows knitted together tightly. “Mrs. Jenson was with Nellie and Nigel yesterday?” How come they did not mention this to him? Yesterday, he had been occupied throughout the afternoon and the two children were enjoying

She rushed over and hurriedly grabbed Luna’s hand. “You’re awake?! Are you thirsty, hungry? I’ll get Luke to hire the best chef and cook for you, okay?”Seeing her friend’s apparent concern for her well-being, Luna smiled bitterly. “Now that you mention it, I am hungry. Can you order something light for me, please?” Gwen nodded quickly, turned around, and left the ward.Luna leaned back on the hospital bed and listened as Gwen ordered the guard at the door to keep a tight eye on her, her lips lifting into a faint smile. But even if she smiled, it still hurt. After being tortured for the past few days, her lips were dry and cracked, even slight movements of her lips brought piercing pain. Luna licked her lips and silently raised her left hand. There was a gap on her left hand where her little finger used to be. It could never return. The gap would remain for the rest of her life. Just like her heart. After a part of her heart was cut off by Joshua, the gap would always be there.

At that, he looked at Gwen. "Actually…"Steven found himself unable to finish his sentence. After a long while, he shook his head and smiled. "Forget about it.""Steven…" Gwen looked at him, and her tears fell.Her heart was not made of stone. How could she not know Steven's feelings toward her?She was silent for a long while. In the end, she stood up and slowly walked over to Steven with arms opened wide. "Give me a hug."Steven hesitated for a while, but he still stood up.They hugged."Gwen." Steven hugged her thin figure. "I have to meet you earlier in the next life so I can compete fairly with my brother."Gwen nodded with tears streaming down her face. "Okay."They thus hugged once more.

The next day, Rachel flew from Merchant City to Sharnwick City to diagnose Anne's condition. Theo tagged along as well because he had another identity, Rachel's boyfriend."According to the report, Anne's condition is slowly recuperating." Rachel was relieved after assessing the report. "Although she is very weak, she is going to get better with lots of rest."There is nothing wrong with her vocal cords too. It could be a psychological thing that makes her lose her voice. A knot in her heart that causes it." She looked at Luna, then at John. "Considering all factors, I think that knot is Luna."Rachel continued, "John, I know Luna is the root cause of all these bad things. Being away from Luna, Joshua, and other people is going to guarantee a safer life for you and your family. But have you thought about it from Anne's point of view? Other than you and Sammie, she has her own life and her circle of friends. Never has she blamed Luna for what happened, yet you forced her to leave Lun

It was almost a miracle for Anne to willingly leave the house just to visit him!Robyn, meanwhile, sobbed at the sight.The nurse who accompanied Anne to the ward was puzzled. What was going on with these people?She snuck her phone out of her pocket and took a photo of this surreptitiously. Then, she sent it into the nurse's group chat with the caption, [What a strange family I met today.]The nurses in the group chat began gossiping about this. One of them tagged a fellow nurse named Daisy and said, [Hey, isn't this the guy who saved the old man you're looking after? What a hero!]Daisy was, at this moment, walking into Andy's room to help him change his wound dressing. She saw the message but was not able to type on her keyboard to respond, so she recorded a voice message instead. "Yes, that's the man. What's wrong with his family? What are you guys talking about?"As soon as she finished her sentence, she lifted her head and finally realized that Andy was not there.Instead,

Anne stared at John for a long time before forcibly smiling and told him in sign language, "Robyn didn't return after so long, so I got worried and came by to check on her.""Daddy, Aunt Robyn, are you two hugging?" Sammie asked, blinking innocently as she raised her head in curiosity.John and Robyn turned pale at this.It was understandable for such a young child like Sammie to misinterpret them as hugging, but what would Anne think of this?John leaped off the bed and staggered toward Anne. "Anne, it's just a misunderstanding…"However, he was still so weak that his legs could not hold up the full weight of his body at all, and he almost crumpled to the ground.Quick-witted Robyn managed to catch him before he could fall, but this gesture appeared once again rather intimate to both Anne and Sammie. Sammie furrowed her brow and asked rather indignantly, "Are you hugging again? Daddy, how can you hug Aunt Robyn like this when you've never even hugged Mommy and me like this befor

When the nurse pushed Anne to John's ward, she overheard John and Robyn fighting from the door. The fight was about how John was anxious to return home because he was worried about Anne and Sammie.However, as someone who used to work as a nurse, Robyn knew John should not leave the hospital after being shot by a gun. At least, he needed to stay in the hospital and be observed for 24 hours to make sure that he was fine before leaving the hospital. If an infection happened, John's body would crash easily and he would become weak just like Anne.In the ward, John frowned and talked with a serious tone, "I'm really fine. Get me my clothes so I can go upstairs to thank Miss Andie and go back home immediately. If Anne knows that I'm hurt, she is going to worry. She will easily be suspicious since you haven't gone back home for a long time. What if she worries about me and brings Sammie to the hospital to look for me? Can you bear yourself even just thinking about it? She's weak and Sammie

Sammie's soft and cute babyish voice melted Stefan's heart immediately. It had been quite some time since he actually put a smile on his face. "Hi, there. What's your name and how old are you?"Sammie tilted her head to look at Stefan's handsome face and smiled sweetly, "I'm Samantha but everyone calls me Sammie."Then she did not forget to introduce Anne to Stefan too. "This is my Mommy. Her name is Anne."At this point, Stefan had given all of his attention to Sammie and did not notice Sammie mentioned that her mother's name was Anne. He pinched Sammie's cheek and said, "Your Mommy is not feeling well. You have to be a good girl and take care of her, do you understand?"Sammie nodded seriously and said, "I will.""Alright, sir. I will bring them to where they want to go," the nurse saw Anne signing to her anxiously. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will take good care of them."The promise from the nurse gave an assurance to Stefan that they would be well taken off. He smil

This was the first time Anne brought Sammie out. Ever since she escaped from death, she became a different person—a recluse and was afraid of the sun. This situation became even worse after she became mute.The last time she left the house was two weeks ago when she had to go for surgery.However, she worried about John. In the morning, Robyn told her John was hurt and needed to stay in the hospital to rest. However, she had a hard time believing what Robyn said.After spending so many years together with John, Anne reckoned she was the one who knew John the most. If it was a minor injury, John would never want to stay in the hospital. He cared too much about her and Sammie, so he never dared to let her worry about him. Therefore, it just did not sound reasonable if John would stay in the hospital because of a small injury.Furthermore, Robyn had not returned home since the morning, which was nearly three hours since she left the house. After much consideration, she decided to call

Tara fell silent upon hearing this. She bit her lip nervously and shot Gwen a tentative glance. "I didn't mean to offend you, Gwen…" "I know." Gwen let out an exhale and interrupted Tara before she could finish, "I know you meant no harm, but I can't deny that this is something I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around. In the future, neither of you—even you, Luna—should bring this up again." Her love life was such a mess that not even she could unravel the ties, much less expect other people to understand. Tara pursed her lips and did not reply. Luna stared at Gwen in silence for a while before finally saying, "But you have to face this eventually, Gwennie. After all that you've been through with Luke, all of us hope for nothing but the best for the two of you. Even if you avoid it now, you'll have to face the truth eventually. Otherwise, are you planning on spending the rest of your life in this complicated relationship with Luke? Can you bear the thought of not being

Stefan was mildly amused by the look on her face. He extended his arms out in a gesture of defeat and said, "I never intended on ratting you out to Joshua. You three spoke about these secrets in my presence." With that, he shot Andy a rather helpless look. "Don't you agree, sir?" Andy was surprised to be called out all of a sudden. "Of course!" Although Gwen and Luke had been together for a long time, Luke had never much cared for maintaining good relations with his future father-in-law. He always thought his relationship with Gwen did not concern anyone else outside of the two of them. Combined with the fact that Andy had done some hurtful things to Gwen in the past, Luke grew even more disdainful of his future father-in-law. Because of this, he had never given Andy as much as a second glance throughout their relationship and rarely ever addressed him directly like this. The truth was, Stefan had already called out to Andy once before, during their rescue mission the day befor
