Luna was a little stunned at Aura’s words.After a while, Luna smiled. “Congratulations, Ms. Gibson.”“I know that you can’t believe it.” Aura slowly put the wine glass down on the table. She looked at Luna with her intricately made-up eyes. “You’re just short-sighted. It’s not your fault. How long have you been working for Joshua?”Aura smiled smugly. “Do you know why Luna Gibson, that coward, only dared to send her daughter back but not show herself?”Luna lowered her eyes and fiddled with the wine glass on the table. “I don’t know.”“Because she does not dare to come back. She knew better than anyone that her accident back then was not an accident. Someone planned it.”“Is that so?” Luna raised her eyebrows. She looked at Aura. “How do you know, Ms. Gibson?”“Because Joshua was the one that planned the accident. Of course, I know about it.”Aura’s voice was still calm, but her smile was smug. “Joshua always liked me. When he knew that Luna was pregnant, he was afraid that

“Nope.”Luna took a deep breath. She pushed aside the unhappy emotions that were aggravated by Aura. She moved aside to let Malcolm sit and got him to sit next to her.“When did you arrive?”“Just a moment ago.”Malcolm smiled a little. He sipped his wine while observing the crowd. “It’s a pretty huge affair.”Luna nodded. “After all, it’s Granny Lynch’s eightieth.”Malcolm changed into a more comfortable posture. He smiled. “If I hadn’t investigated the Lynch family before, I wouldn’t have dared to go up against Joshua, looking at the crowd here today.”Luna paused a little. “You… want to go up against Joshua?”“I intend to.”“There’s no need, Malcolm.”Luna sighed, “I’ll deal with my matters myself. I don’t need you to help me.”“It’s just a business competition.” Malcolm smiled a little. “But, if you need me, I’ll always be supporting you.”His words sounded too intimate. It made Luna a little uncomfortable.After a while, she cleared her throat. “Have you seen Neil?”

The crowd began to wonder. If it was a marriage announcement, the groom should be there. Why was Joshua not there? Why was it only Aura and Granny Lynch announcing the marriage?“Because Joshua is not here.”Malcolm, who was on the sofa, looked at the stage. He smiled a little. “A few minutes ago, Joshua got a call. His father was at the airport and asked him to pick him up.”Luna furrowed her brows. “Joshua’s father is coming?”She has married Joshua for many years, not once has she seen his father.It was said that Joshua’s mother died when she gave birth to him, from then onward, his father has been depressed ever since. Wallowed himself in drinking. He was not willing to even look at Joshua.In his eyes, Joshua was bad luck. If there was no Joshua, his wife would not have died, so he has never once taken part in Joshua’s life.Joshua rarely mentioned his father too.Back then, Luna had to ask the older servants about Joshua’s father. The servants told her that he has never

The little girl was about five or six years old. She was petite and pretty. Especially the face! It was similar to Joshua’s! People started covering their mouths in shock.Turns out, Joshua’s face on a girl would be equally pretty! The little girl in his arms was without a doubt his daughter.Here was the problem. His ex-wife passed away six years ago. He has been married to Aura for five already.Where… did the child come from? The audience below the stage kept guessing while Joshua brought Nellie up to the stage.Looking at Granny Lynch’s and Aura’s shocked expressions, Joshua smiled faintly. “Granny, when you kept getting me to pick my father up, I knew something was up.”He only did not expect that Aura would be so bold! She dared to announce a thing like that with Granny Lynch while he was not around! She must have suspected that Granny Lynch was desperate, that was why she dared to be so reckless.Aura’s face instantly turned pale. She bit her lips and could not say

His words caused a wave of uproar.The crowd was still discussing among themselves in hushed tones a moment ago, at that moment, they could no longer care about their volume.This was a dramatic turn of events! Two minutes ago, Granny Lynch and Aura were still announcing the marriage date, two minutes later, Joshua came in carrying his daughter announcing the canceling of their marriage! “Why would he cancel the marriage?” Malcolm smiled faintly. He looked at Joshua on the stage. “Hasn’t he liked Aura for many years already?” “A person would have a change of heart.” Luna sneered and looked at Joshua on stage. “I have been with him for three years. He hated me so much he tried to kill me. Aura has been with him for almost five years, perhaps he’s gotten sick of her.” Actually, no matter what Joshua or Aura announced that day, Luna was not surprised.They were heartless people. No matter what they did, it was understandable.“It’s such a good show though.” Malcolm stretch

She heard them talking clearly outside his bedroom. He sent someone to crash Luna at Bay Bridge, all because of Aura’s child.He has done such terrible things, yet he dared to shamelessly claim that he and Aura were innocent.When she used to like him back then, how did she not know that his bottom line was so low? Luna condescendingly lifted her head and met with Joshua’s cold gaze. Their eyes met. His gaze got colder.He was on stage busy explaining his marriage with Aura, yet he did not notice that Luna was sitting together with the Quinn family’s Young Master, Malcolm Quinn! Her petite body was next to Malcolm on the sofa. He had his hand stretch out behind her.From Joshua’s angle, it looked like Malcolm was hugging Luna! Joshua narrowed his eyes. He never knew that Luna was friends with his business rival.Also, looking at how intimate they were sitting together…Joshua sneered.He has always tried to wonder what was this woman’s intention. He never expected that i

On stage, Aura looked at everyone looking at her. Looking at Granny Lynch’s hopeful eyes, she could not help but secretly roll her eyes at her.Luckily, she only paid some money to Malcolm previously for the fake ones. If she were to have gotten the real set, she would have been openly robbed by the old woman! At that thought, Aura smiled pretentiously at Granny Lynch. “Granny, what are you saying? Of course, I’ll keep my word. Even if Joshua calls off the marriage, we’re splitting up amicably. There is no contention, also…”Aura smiled and looked at Nellie. “Even if the engagement is called off, we’re still relatives. You have taken care of me for the past five years. It’s only right that I give you this.”Then, she turned to look at her assistant far away. “Bring me my gift.”Under the singing praises of the crowd, Aura took over the box from her assistant. She gracefully opened the box and showed it to everyone.“This set of jewelry is designed by a world-famous jewelry desig
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy Chapter 124
But…A six-year-old who could design such a beautiful set of jewelry was too unbelievable.“I designed them.” Nellie nodded seriously. She pushed Joshua away and jumped down from the sofa.“Aunty!” Luna responded and immediately got up. She walked over to Nellie with Nellie’s little bag.Joshua looked at Luna. He wanted to say something but held back.“I also brought a jewelry design of my own to give to the Great-Granny.” Nellie fished around in her bag. She smiled and looked at Granny Lynch. “But, Aunt Aura has given the Stargazing to Great-Granny, so I could no longer give you that.”Then, she took a box out of her bag. Nellie opened the box.A set of gorgeous jewelry was in it.The design, pattern, and even the color of the gemstones were almost a replica of the one in Granny Lynch’s hands.Clearly, the one in Nellie’s hands was even more beautiful.Nellie placed the jewelry in Luna’s hands. Then, she reached into her bag and got a few sketches out. “I brought a few sketc

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. Minutes later…"He's gone," said Stefan.Tears kept falling.They hugged for a while longer before pulling apart. Gwen looked at Stefan with her tear-stricken face. He had tears on his face as well.She bit her lips and reached out to wipe his tears. "A—Are these tears…yours or his?

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
