Semua Bab Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn't Easy: Bab 551 - Bab 560

“What’s wrong?” Theo stood up as soon as he noticed Luna’s peculiar expression. “Does your wound hurt? Are you upset because you don’t want to meet my parents?”An alarmed expression flashed across Theo’s face. “If you don’t want to meet them, I can give them a call right away…”Luna shook her head. “No, it’s not that.” She lifted her head to gaze at him and said, “Can we have dinner someplace else instead? It’s just that I…don’t like Bamboo Palace.”Luna was worried that she would run into Joshua during dinner. If they bumped into each other this night, Luna feared Joshua would cause a scene and humiliate Theo in front of his parents.“Oh, is that it?” Theo’s face lit up almost immediately, and he stood up. “That’s easy! My parents’ plane will be landing at Banyan City Airport in an hour. I’ll pick them up now and ask them to change the venue to someplace else.”Theo shot Luna an excited glance and added, “You… You’d better dress up! I’ll send you the address of the new venue in

Luna and Theo exchanged glances as soon as they heard the voice coming from the other side of the door. They were more than familiar with it.“Yes, it is!” Nathan leaped out of his seat excitedly, strode over, and flung open the door. A young couple stood outside the door. The man was tall and slender with an aura of sophistication about him, while the woman looked serene and charming. “You must be Mr. Lynch!” Nathan immediately extended his hand out to shake Joshua’s. “Please come in!”Joshua offered a small smile and eyed Luna, who sat inside the booth. She wore a formal and elegant skirt, and she even put on makeup. She looked much more stunning than how she usually looked at work.It was clear that Luna had put in the effort to look good for Theo’s parents.Joshua narrowed his eyes and pulled Alice into the room impassively. Alice strolled in with a smile on her face, but as soon as she caught sight of Theo and Luna in the corner, she froze. After a moment, however, she p

The entire room grew silent as Joshua’s words hung in the air.After a long pause, Nathan smiled and said, “What are you talking about, Mr. Lynch? We’re going to become work partners soon. Plus, your wife is close friends with Luna. Isn’t this marriage meant to be? Why are you—”“Because,” responded Joshua as he pointed his bony finger at Luna, “she’s not a good match.”The atmosphere in the booth grew so silent that one could hear a pin drop. The color drained from Luna’s face, but Theo’s expression did not look good either. Nathan and Celeste looked at one another, bewildered.“Joshua.” Alice frowned and sat down next to Joshua. Then, she lowered her voice and said, “Luna finally managed to find a boyfriend, and both Theo and his parents seem to be very happy with her… Why are you saying things like this? Do you know what’ll happen if you break up a marriage?”Although Alice had lowered her voice and appeared to be whispering in Joshua’s ear, everyone heard her.At first gl

Joshua felt as though his blood had run cold. He gripped his phone tightly and enunciated slowly, “That’s impossible.”“But…” Lucas’ frantic voice rang out from the other end of the line. “She climbed onto the railing of Bay Bridge! Sir…should I call the police?”Joshua had tried to compose himself, but as soon as he heard that, his calm façade crumbled. He roared into the phone, “Keep an eye on her!”With that, he hung up the phone and stormed out of the room.“Joshua… Josh—” By the time Alice finally came to, Joshua had already disappeared around the end of the hallway.She was so furious that she immediately smashed the tableware onto the floor.Luna! That b*tch!If she wanted to die, they should just let her be!She deserved to die! She should have died six years ago!Joshua came out of the hotel lobby and hopped into his car. He harshly stepped on the gas pedal and sped toward Bay Bridge as fast as his car could go.He finally realized why Luna had stared at him like tha

“She can’t afford to suffer another injury anymore,” the doctor warned Joshua after he finished suturing Luna’s wound again. He then added, “I heard that Ms. Luna is a jewelry designer. She had burst her stitches twice in a day… If she gets hurt one more time…she might not be able to hold a pencil ever again.”Joshua sighed and glanced at Luna, who had passed out from the excruciating pain. The color had drained from her face, and her right shoulder was once more wrapped in a thick layer of bandages. Joshua sighed and left the ward. “Lucas, send out a job recruitment notice tonight. I want to hire some jewelry design assistants who have stable foundations, or even artists.”Lucas paused. “Didn’t Luna already hire her boyfriend, Theo, as her assistant? Why do you want—”Before he could finish his sentence, however, Joshua shot him a glare, and Lucas immediately clamped his mouth shut.When Luna finally woke up, it was already the next morning. The first thing she saw when she op
