Neil immediately deleted the photo.Although he looked exactly like Nigel, there were subtle differences if one were to look closely.Joshua was a meticulous person, and Neil feared he might notice them. After deleting the photo, he returned the phone to Joshua. “What other tests are there? Let me do them, but you can’t disturb us anymore for the rest of the day.” Joshua furrowed his brows. “Why are you suddenly so cooperative?’Neil put up great resistance ever since he brought them to the hospital. Otherwise, Joshua would not have had to keep a close eye on them.Who knew Neil would turn so obedient after looking at the photo?Neil rolled his eyes. “I thought that you were afraid that we weren’t sick, so you hoped for us to die earlier. After seeing the photo, I now know that you’re concerned for me. I’ll reluctantly cooperate then.”Then, Neil ignored Joshua and rolled up his sleeves, letting the nurse take his blood.At the sight of him finally cooperating, Joshua let ou

Joshua put the phone down and took his phone out to call Alice.The moment the call got through, a familiar ring tone came from the entrance of the elevator at the end of the corridor.Joshua subconsciously turned to look.A tear-streaked Alice looked panicked as she rushed over frantically. “Is Neil and Nellie alright? Why did they have to come for a body checkup?”Seeing Alice’s tear-streaked and worried look, a layer of detest washed over Joshua.When he went back home to pick up Neil and Nellie, he even deliberately asked Lily whether Alice knew that the kids suffered the night before.“After you left last night, Mrs. Lynch entered the room and never came out again. This morning, once she got up, she headed straight down for breakfast and left straight away.”Lily’s voice still rang in Joshua’s ears. “After making Neil and Nellie drink milk, she never stepped foot in the children’s room anymore.”Joshua looked at Alice walking over with teary eyes, and he suddenly felt mise

“The report is here with me. Should I still lie to myself about you?”Alice’s face grew pale as she listened to Joshua’s words. In the end, her face lost all of its colors.She clutched onto the report as she gnawed on her lip.She got someone to confiscate all of the electronic equipment in the children’s rooms the night before she forced them to drink ten bottles of milk.She wanted to discipline them for disobeying her.From what she knew, drinking milk would not kill someone. At most, they would be too bloated to move, but that was it.Without any recording device, she could retort by saying that the two of them disliked her, so they colluded to accuse her.However, she did not expect that six-year-old children’s stomachs would be so weak. Drinking too much milk would leave signs of harm on their body! Alice clutched the report and was silent for a very long time.After a while, she looked up at Joshua’s face and broke out into loud sobs. “Joshua, let me explain…” She w

Upon Nellie’s words, Alice’s face, which finally regained a little color, rapidly lost all shades as she turned paler than the wall.The corridors were in pin-drop silence.At that moment, the testing room door opened. Neil came walking out as he wore his clothes. The first person he saw was the teary-eyed Alice, and he unconsciously broke out into a smirk. The crazy lady did not have much range in her acting: they merely consisted of tears falling, crying, and yelling.At that moment, she had just returned to Joshua, and he still liked her, so her tears were still useful. Once Joshua was sick of her, not only would her tears have no effect on him, but Joshua would be also annoyed at it.Tsk.They were adults, yet they still did not understand that simple fact. Using tears on any matter would render it useless sooner or later! Neil mused to himself as he walked to Nellie’s side. He sat on the bench and held her sister’s hand. “Why did Ms. Alice cry?”Joshua furrowed his bro

Alice remained in the same spot in the corridor as she glanced at the leaving Neil. A hint of hatred flashed in her eyes.That kid was no fool. He knew she would do something to them if she was no longer their main caretaker, so he forcefully turned Joshua’s decision around. The reasons he gave made it irrefutable! At the thought that she still has to pretend to look after the two of them in the future, Alice was inexplicably angry.As she eyed Neil in a dazed state, Joshua furrowed his brows and flatly called her, “Alice.” Alice jolted a little and immediately came to her senses.“Let’s go.” Joshua took Alice to a cafe near the hospital.It was the only time he had ever taken her there after their marriage.Before marriage, he did not understand her enough. He only knew that she was a lady madly in love with him. Because of how his family urged him to marry and coupled with pressure from work, there was a time where he was depressed for most of the day.She was like a litt

The atmosphere around them turned cold, too.Alice lifted her eyes and looked at Joshua seriously. “Joshua, I did all this because of you.”“Because of me?”Joshua sneered. “You deliberately pushed Luna and ruined Master Allen’s work because of me? Because of me, you found a PR company to put the video of that day on the internet? Also, because of me, you went to my office and knelt in front of Luna, giving a false impression that Luna seduced me and we had an affair?”Joshua took a sip of coffee and placed the cup down heavily. The sound of the ceramic mug that clanked against the marble table reverberated in Alice’s heart.She sniffled and tried her best to force out some tears. “Joshua, I know what I did wasn’t right, but don’t all women of upper-class society do that to protect the integrity and harmony of their family?”Joshua felt suffocated. The Luna Gibson six years ago was never like that! Alice, on the other hand, kept emphasizing the greatness of the family’s statu
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy Chapter 298
That was the news Mr. Walter gave to Alice the other night, and it inexplicably appeared before her eyes.She gnashed her teeth harshly. Luna must go! So long as Luna remained, Joshua would never be with her! It was that way a few years back, and it would continue to be that, too! …Luna spent the entire morning to re-sketch the set of design sketches Granny Lynch had destroyed. She even changed some details.By noon, she stretched lazily and was about to head down to grab some lunch.She did not expect to be surrounded by reporters the moment she walked out of the building.“Ms. Luna, the internet is saying you were the one that posted the video of Mrs. Lynch pushing you to fight back the rumors yesterday. Is that true?”“Ms. Luna, someone saw a video online of Mrs. Lynch kneeling before you at the office lobby, asking for your forgiveness. Is that true?”“How do you explain yourself of openly being the mistress and coming between Mr. Lynch and Mrs. Lynch?”“Don’t you feel

Luna paused for a while.She did not realize her nails dug so deeply into her palms.“So, the two of you got me here to persuade me to hold a news conference, just to prove that Alice is a good woman. Then, you want to use that to get closer to her and ask her for money?”Natasha sighed. “I know you must be looking down on us, but as parents, if we could find a way for our children to be free, who’d want to watch their children stay in prison? We’re only living like this now because we love our children too much.”Then, Natasha lifted her head and looked at Luna. “Ms. Luna, you should know that I misunderstood Luna Gibson, now Alice Gibson, in the past. She hates me, so it wasn’t appropriate for us to find her directly. I hope you’ll cooperate with us and hold a press conference tomorrow. Clear her name so that the people on the internet would stop bullying her. This way, she’ll remember how uneasy it is for us as parents, and only then would we be able to get money from her.”Lun

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
