Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy Chapter 2183
"Are you worried about us harming her, or are you worried about us discovering the hidden door in her room? Don't worry, Mr. Simms, we'll sort this out after we search the room."Then, he grabbed Bonnie's hand once more and walked away.A group of men dressed in black promptly followed them.As the warmth of Jim's palm spread into her own, Bonnie stared at the strands of his hair picked up by the wind and suddenly felt as though she had been transported to a year ago when she first saw him.At that time, she and Jim were both standing next to the ruins of Blue Bay Villa, which had been destroyed in a fire of Aura's doing.His tall, slender frame was perched alongside Harvey next to the ruins.The wind had picked up a few strands of his hair, blowing it gently about his face and framing it in a delicate way that contrasted his sharp, arrogant-looking features.He had turned to look at her, a hint of surprise in his gaze, and she would never forget that first glance.She had fall

Granny Quinn's attitude had indirectly confirmed Jim's suspicions, and he narrowed his eyes. "All I want is to look at your bed, Granny Quinn. Why are you so hostile?"He chuckled and inched closer to Granny Quinn. His voice became more stern as he added, "What are you hiding underneath your bed?"Granny Quinn's expression darkened when she heard this. She let out a slight cough, then smiled awkwardly. "Pardon me—I may have overreacted just now."She continued to cough into her fist, feigning frailness, and said, "I was just surprised, that's all… This is the first time you and your little girlfriend ever came to my room, Mr. Landry, and you even demanded to look at my bed!"To be honest, I'm an old lady now, and naturally…I was a little shocked by this request."After all, what is there to look at on a frail old lady's dirty, messy bed?"Then, she shot Jim a somewhat pleading look and added, "Please don't do this to me, Mr. Landry. My health has been declining day by day, so muc

However…Bonnie had the same idea as Jim, too.This unknown darkness that was before them could be the most dangerous thing they would ever face, so how could she possibly allow Jim to face it himself?She still remembered…When they met at the orphanage, Jim had told her before that he was secretly afraid of the dark.During the past year they had been together, Bonnie would sometimes tease him for being afraid of the dark.Even though her feelings toward Jim were more governed by disgust rather than love at this moment, it did not change the fact that the past Jim and the current Jim were the same people, so they shared the same fears.As soon as she thought of this, she grew even more determined to go with him. "If you don't bring me along, I won't let you go in there."A surge of warmth spread through Jim's heart at the sound of this.He turned to stare at Bonnie, whose eyes were etched with determination and worry.He knew she was not throwing a tantrum or deliberately t

Bonnie's heart leaped into her throat at the sound of this.She was more than familiar with this voice.During the past year that she had spent with Jim, Harvey had clung to her as well, and therefore, his best friend, June, also spent almost all hours of her day with Bonnie.There was no way Bonnie could not recognize June's voice!"Help me—""Help me, please—!"June's screams grew even louder and shriller than the last.Bonnie could feel all the nerves in her body tighten, and she could not help quickening her pace as she strode in the direction of the voice.All of a sudden, Jim furrowed his brows and squeezed her hand. "Don't act on impulse."He took a step forward to shield Bonnie's body behind his, then continued to make their way toward the direction of the voice.Soon, they arrived at a dungeon, and the door leading to it was left ajar.The closer they got, the louder they could hear June's cries for help.Jim slowed down and, still holding Bonnie's hand in his, slo

"It hurts, Aunt Bonnie… It hurts so much…"Bonnie's heart broke at the sight of this. She held June close to her and glared at the two servants, who were restrained by the guards. "Who the hell ordered you two to do this? How can you do this to a six-year-old child?"The woman leaning against the cushions shot Bonnie a cold look but did not reply.The other one, however, stammered, "W—We were just following Mr. Simms' orders! He told us to cut the flesh off her arms…and then…mail them to her father…"That way…her father will be willing to hand over what Mr. Simms wanted to save his daughter!"Jim furrowed his brows upon hearing this. "What does Christopher have that's so important to Quentin that he'll do anything to get him to hand it over?"Jim did not understand this.Christopher was just a doctor, so what did he have with him that was so irresistible to Quentin?"I…I don't know." The servant lowered her head. "All I heard is that…this little girl's father possesses the reci

A glimmer of fear flashed past the servant's eyes.However, a split second later, she regained her composure and lifted her head to stare coldly at Jim. "I don't know what you're talking about, Sir."Like the maid standing next to you, I, too, was under Mr. Simms' orders to execute this. We hadn't meant to hurt her at all, and I hope that you, Sir, and…and this beautiful lady with you can show us some mercy."The woman's voice was hoarse and croaky, like a broken, creaking door.Jim could not help frowning at the sound of this.According to his guesses, Quentin must have disguised Charlotte as one of the servants, and based on how silent this servant had been since they entered the room, he was fairly confident that this was Charlotte.Nonetheless…He remembered Charlotte's voice, and even though she did not possess a melodic voice, it was still clear and resonant, not at all like the sound that came out of this woman's throat!Bonnie shared the same thought, too.Initially, a

The servant quickly put her mask back on, then shot Jim and Bonnie a somewhat pleading look. "Please, I'm not a bad person. Can you… Can you show me mercy?"Jim furrowed his brows, staring at the woman, then turned to glance at Bonnie and June.He reached out to cover Bonnie's eyes and finally glanced at the other servant, who had been pressed onto the ground by one of the guards. "Take off your mask, too."The woman nodded and did as Jim ordered.This woman's face was also charred and mutilated beyond recognition."Are you Quentin's daughter too?" Jim asked, frowning.The woman shook her head. "No, I'm not. How can I possibly…be Mr. Simms' daughter? Only Char—only the girl next to you is Mr. Simms' daughter."Then, she quickly put her mask back on, trotted over to the other servant's side, and gently grasped her arm. Then, she glanced at Jim with an earnest look and said, "Sir, the two of us were forced to be here against our will, and if we had a choice, we wouldn't have chose

Bonnie shot Jim a puzzled look, then finally sighed and held June closer to her as she walked up the stairwell, followed by Jim.Even though they did not manage to find Charlotte, they had at least found June.Bonnie gently stroked June's bald head and chuckled. "I bought you lots of hats, some of them with wigs attached. Haven't you always wanted to change your hairstyle frequently? Well, when we get home, you can finally fulfill your wishes of changing your hairstyle every day!"The sound of Bonnie's gentle voice made June's trembling body stiffen.A split second later, she lifted her head to stare at Bonnie with wide, shiny eyes. "How many?"Bonnie felt her heart soften at this sight.This was a six-year-old girl, after all.Even after she was treated terribly and wounded all over, she still could not suppress her curiosity and asked how many hairstyles she could get.How could one possibly not love such an adorable little girl?"More than you can count," Bonnie said reassu
