Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy Chapter 23
With tears on her face, Aura rushed to Joshua worriedly, wanting to throw herself into his arms, but...Joshua’s left arm held Nellie and his right arm supported Luna, and it left no space for her at all.At that moment, Joshua, Luna, and Nellie looked like a family that loved and supported each other.Aura stopped in her tracks. The bitterness in the woman’s eyes spread like vines.The medical staff quickly placed Luna and Nellie onto the stretchers and carried them into the ambulance.“Joshua, you scared me to death!” Waiting for the ambulance to leave, Aura brought her head close to Joshua’s chest. “I cried so much! I thought I’d never see you again...”Joshua took a step back calmly.“Sir!” Lucas rushed over in surprise, face swollen and littered with bruises. “Are you okay? I thought that brat was lying to me, but he knew what he was doing and saved you!”Joshua raised his eyebrows slightly. “What brat?”Lucas quickly told Joshua what he had seen in the control room.“Th

On the other end of the phone, Neil sat on a bench by the roadside as his gaze was fixed on the leaving ambulance. “Congratulations,” came his dull response.Although Mommy and Nellie were saved in the end, he still felt guilty.He did not expect that Aura would be so cruel to Nellie.If it was not for him, if he had not asked Nellie to reunite with that trash of a Joshua, this might not have happened.Thinking about this, Neil’s mood soured.Not noticing his glum expression, the two security guards still excitedly announced the good news, “Thanks to you, we can report for work at the Lynch Group tomorrow!”“If you need help in the future, just tell us!”Work at the Lynch Group? Neil’s eyes lit up at that.He needed an inside man in the Lynch Group, after all!...The hospital.Joshua gently pushed open the door of the ward, and Luna turned her head when she heard the door opening. She subconsciously frowned at the sight of him.Eyeing the sleeping Nellie on the bed, she tu

Luna’s back hit the cold hard wall, and she grimaced at the impact. Joshua squeezed her neck as his eyes flashed coldly. “You’re just a servant who deliberately cares for Nellie to please me. Who do you think you are? “I’m very grateful for your actions today, but this doesn’t mean that you can comment about the matters between me and my ex-wife. In this world, no one can talk to me like this except for Nellie’s biological mother!”The man’s grip on her neck tightened, and Luna’s face turned purple from the lack of oxygen.A moment later, when she was about to faint, the man released his hand. “Remember yourself!”“Ahem, ahem...”Finally breathing fresh air, Luna collapsed on the ground weakly as she clutched her neck and coughed.“Oh, what’s the matter?” Aura’s lazy voice sounded in the corridor. Luna raised her head subconsciously.In front of her, Aura wore a red dress as her dainty feet stepped on seven-centimeter-high heels. She looked down at her on the ground proudly.

Luna just had to calm down!Luna took a deep breath and looked up at Joshua, her voice trembling slightly, “If I said I searched for the dangers that could appear in the amusement park yesterday in fear something might happen to Nellie, would you believe me?”Aura sneered, “But what about that number?” Luna gritted his teeth and resisted the gushing hatred and anger. “That number...belonged to a friend of mine. He knew I was going to the amusement park, so he could take care of me in case something happened.”She looked at Joshua and tried to make herself sound as sincere as possible.Joshua frowned slightly. “Call your friend, and I’ll ask him personally.”“He won’t come.” Luna’s lips trembled. “I won’t admit to such accusations, and my friends don’t need to explain themselves on my behalf.”She closed her eyes and said in a cold voice, “Everything I did today, whether it was premeditated, or was it just to please Mr. Lynch? I think Mr. Lynch would know better than me.“In my

Aura’s face turned pale.She just wanted to find some evidence to push all the responsibility on Luna, but she forgot that there was not only Luna’s signal in Blue Bay Villa but also Joshua’s!“That’s right,” Luna leaned against the wall as sarcasm oozed from the corner of her lips. “Although Mr. Lynch’s mobile phone signals are encrypted, if one or two of them were and it just happened that you monitored it, and the data somehow gets leaked… The ensuing loss may amount to hundreds of millions.”Aura’s face paled instantly.“Joshua, I… I won’t sell your information, ever! I was just...just too anxious. I wanted to find evidence of Luna’s plan, so...”Looking at Aura’s panicked expression, Luna’s lips raised in a sneer. Just as she was about to say something, however, Nellie’s voice drifted out from the ward. “Auntie…”As soon as her daughter called, Luna dropped everything and pushed open the door to the ward and went inside. That left only Joshua and Aura in the corridor.“

As she laid on the little pink bed, Nellie blinked her big eyes and looked at the man earnestly. “You’ve been with Nellie for a long time, and it’s time to go to work. Just ask the Auntie to come over and tell me a story!”Joshua took the storybook. “I can tell a good story.”Nellie was flabbergasted.“You lie! I’ve heard your stories before!” The little girl stretched out her hand and shook his sleeves. “I want Auntie, Daddy. Go ahead...”After her repeated requests, Joshua finally stepped out of her room, incredibly disappointed.Luna stood in the corridor, outside the door as she waited for him to leave.The man pushed open the door and looked at Luna with a face full of displeasure before he lifted his feet and left.Luna shook her head helplessly before she pushed the door in.“Mommy.” Nellie leaned toward Luna and said in a low voice, “Don’t you think Daddy is being too gentle today? It looks like he’s terrified of losing us, too.”“The one he’s afraid of losing is you.”

“Why?”As he noticed the little boy’s shocked expression, Joshua’s lips twisted into a smile. “Surprised to see me?”Neil swallowed and nodded honestly. “It is indeed a surprise...”How did he find this place?“It seems that there’s no need to introduce myself.” The man took a clean glass and poured himself a glass of beer gracefully. “Since you saved my daughter, why are you avoiding me?”“No, I didn’t avoid you.” Neil turned away guiltily and dared not look at him.Although he repeatedly scolded him for being a scumbag, Neil still felt uncomfortable and uneasy when he suddenly appeared next to him.Joshua chuckled. “You really didn’t avoid me?”Neil coughed slightly. “I do good deeds without leaving a name.”“Not only do you leave no name, but also leave no trace?”His men had scoured through the whole amusement park and checked everyone that entered and exited the park, but they could not find him.Neil took a sip of orange juice and said not a word. Joshua did not fixa

Neil rolled his eyes and guessed that Joshua asked him this question because of Nellie.Did this scumbag want to make it up to Nellie?The little guy frowned and thought of what Nellie had said to him.“Neil, if you return to Daddy, what do you want Daddy to do for you? I hope that Daddy will be like Mommy and cook me delicious food. Like Mommy comb my hair, pick out my clothes, and also tell me a bedtime story like Mommy!”…Neil hesitated for a while and removed the girly ‘hair-combing’ as he answered, “I hope my father can cook for me, pick out my clothes for me, and tell me bedtime stories.”Joshua raised his eyebrows. “Do you still need someone to tell you a bedtime story?”This little boy was mature enough to tell other children a bedtime story.“Of course I want to listen to bedtime stories!” Neil was upset. “I’m still a child! You can’t ignore the fact that I’m only six years old just because I’m smart, resourceful, cute, and handsome!”Joshua had no comment on that.

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.

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
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy Chapter 3088
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
