Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy Chapter 2161
Bonnie had been drowning in her imagination, in dreams of Jim recovering from his amnesia, so much so that she had been blinded to the fact that he despised her and even turned down Sean because of this.She had been so fixated on criticizing Theo that she forgot she, too, was caught in the same predicament.Therefore, she did not intend on continuing this cycle anymore."Do you have anything to say, Mr. Landry?" asked Bonnie in a low voice, seeing that Jim was staring at her through the rearview mirror in silence.Jim narrowed his eyes and continued to stare at her.He could no longer see the hopeful and tender look in her eyes that used to be there.At this moment, Bonnie's eyes were etched with coldness and determination, and he could not help feeling that…if he were to let Bonnie go at this moment, she…She would never return.He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit one.Before he could even take a puff from it, Bonnie furrowed her brows and said, "My heal

June was missing?Both Bonnie and Jim froze when they heard this.Bonnie quickly got out of the car and pulled a sobbing Harvey into her arms. "Harvey, calm down and tell us what happened. How can June be missing?"Harvey wiped the tears from his face and said, panting, "Shelly's the only person in the house now! All the babysitters are protecting and looking after Shelly, but I can't find June anywhere!"Then, he explained what had happened in fits of sobs, "When I couldn't find her, I asked the maids and babysitters where she had gone, and they told me that…"They said that not long after we left, Dr. Suess arrived, saying she was there to check on June…"Since all the guards were transferred here from Uncle Joshua's place, they were naturally familiar with Dr. Suess, and on top of that, she had come here to see June on several occasions before, so they let her in without thinking twice… And then…"He sniffed and finally could not stop his tears from falling anymore.No matte

Jim curled his lips into a bitter smile as he sat in the car, watching Bonnie and Harvey leave.Even though Harvey ran over and claimed he needed help from Mommy and Daddy, he had only talked to Bonnie from start to finish, without even giving Jim so much as a glance.Jim thought that under such circumstances, he should not even be helping Harvey if he did not ask for it, but…He let out a sigh.Even if Harvey did not come to him for help, how could he ignore his son?Besides, June was Christopher's daughter, and they had brought the two children home together from Banyan City.Even though she was not related to him, she was still Harvey's best friend, and thus, Jim knew he had an obligation to help find her.As soon as he thought of this, Jim rubbed his brows in frustration, picked up his phone, and dialed his assistant's number. "Assistant Coleman, help me track down the whereabouts of a doctor named Laura Suess."Then, after giving his assistant the instructions to do this,

Jim chuckled when he heard this. "I know I was blunt, but I'm just telling the truth, aren't I?"Then, he strode over to Harvey's side and gently stroked his hair in reassurance. "After all, you've read so many crime thrillers that you probably know I'm right, so don't get too wound up about your friend, okay?"Harvey finally stopped crying upon hearing this. He sniffed and bit his lip, staring at his father's face, then said timidly, "Daddy… Was it very unmanly of me to cry like that?"Jim chuckled. "A real man cares about the people around him, so it's okay to cry when you're sad about losing someone important to you. Don't worry about that."For a split second, Bonnie could not help being reminded of the old Jim when she heard these words.Jim's kindness, consideration, and soft, gentle voice made a surge of warmth spread through her heart, even though this kindness was not directed at her.She could not help remembering what Theo had said.Theo had said that the old Jim woul

Harvey bit his lip nervously, his little face etched with fury.Assistant Coleman was still reporting his findings. "The little boy appeared to have been asleep—or perhaps rendered unconscious. He was lying in Laura's arms, not moving even an inch."When she came out of the hotel, she got into the car and headed straight to Quinn Mansion. She's been there for an hour now and hasn't come out yet."Assistant Coleman sighed and added, "My men are still waiting outside Quinn Mansion. That's all I have for my investigation. Do you still need me to investigate her past?"Jim narrowed his eyes and replied, "Continue to keep an eye on her and try to find out more information about her past, especially if she has any relations to the Quinn family."Assistant Coleman paused when he heard this, then answered, "Actually…I have this information at hand right now."Laura Suess is Granny Quinn's personal physician, and Granny Quinn was the one who had supported her financially when she went abr

When Lucas reached Joshua's house, the living room was so cold that it felt like they were in an igloo.Joshua was sitting on the couch, watching Lucas walking in with his cold eyes. Meanwhile, Nigel was beside him, using his laptop for something, and the anxious Luna frantically typed away on her phone.The atmosphere was so cold that it could easily suffocate a person.Lucas braced himself to approach them and greeted, "Mr. Lynch."After giving Lucas a brief response, he threw the documents at Lucas. "Do you remember Laura Suess, the family physician that you chose? You said that you've conducted a background investigation and reference checks, yes?"Lucas was stunned as he hurriedly picked up the documents that had fallen to the floor. He compiled it in order and started to skim through the pages.When he saw the information that Granny Quinn was the one who sponsored Laura to further her study and the close relationship between Laura and the Quinn family, his body shivered.

"Mr. Joshua, do you intend to let Uncle Lucas off so easily?"Joshua responded faintly and continued with his work."Unbelievable." Nigel pursed his lips. "I thought that you'd punish him severely, given how mad you are."With his lips curled up, Joshua gazed at the woman beside Nigel who sported pale yellow pajamas and was texting with her phone in a terrible fix. She was probably busy discussing with Bonnie and Gwen about June's disappearance and Laura's incident.The way she looked when she was replying to the text with seriousness was so endearing that Joshua wanted to just pull her into his arms. Nonetheless, he knew that it was not the time to get cozy and lovey-dovey.Therefore, Joshua could only look the other away and smiled. "Remember, your mother pleaded for him."There was a pause for a moment, and Nigel finally understood after a while.Luna had purposely asked Lucas to tell the truth because she was pleading for him.Nigel sighed and was about to say something whe

Jim furrowed his brows and stood up, moving to another spot so he could answer the call.Before he could take another step forward, however, Harvey grabbed the hem of Jim's top."Daddy, didn't you just tell me that you've made up your mind to be with Mommy? Why do you plan on taking this call behind my back now? Are you still thinking about searching for Number-9?"Even though Jim had never told Harvey about Number-9, Harvey grew up together with June, and Christopher, the girl's father, was a parent who treated June like a friend. Hence, no matter what June asked, Christopher would tell June if he felt that June could understand.Christopher, thus, must have told June about Number-9. Since June knew about Number-9's existence, there was no reason that Harvey did not know about her.Harvey clearly heard Assistant Lowe mention the children's home from the other line, so he knew that this call must have been about Number-9. Jim's brows furrowed at Harvey's words and stern expression

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.

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
