Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 157

After hanging up the phone, Luna waited for Neil

and Nellie to finish their breakfast before they left to send Neil to his kindergarten. Lily then brought Nellie back to Blue Bay Villa.

Standing on the roadside, she watched as the car Nellie rode in drove into the distance. She slowly exhaled before she raised a hand and hailed a taxi. “To South City Hospital.“

Luna could ignore Joshua, but she could not ignore Natasha.

Even though Natasha misunderstood her like everyone else, she could not pretend she did not know and not visit her.

After all, she provided her life.

Once, Natasha was her closest confidant, even closer than Aura, but…

Under Aura’s misleading words, she grew farther and farther apart from her family. Only when she completely lost them did she realize how silly she once was.

Natasha had always been fairly healthy, but with her suddenly admitted to the hospital, she guessed that it must be related to Aura. The incidents that happened that night could not possibly be kept completely a secret.

With Aura suddenly sent off to Australia to study, Natasha and her vigilant mind would surely know

something had happened.

As Aura’s family member, it would not be difficult if she truly wanted to investigate the happenings at the banquet that night. After all, no matter how powerful Joshua was, he could not control everyone’s tongues.

She closed her eyes.

Did Natasha suddenly fall sick and was admitted into hospital because she found out Aura wanted to hurt Nellie?

At this thought, a trace of warmth burst into Luna’s chest.

At least her mother still cared about her and her children, right?

She then grew slightly upset.

When Luna planned for the birthday banquet, she considered the fact that she did not want Nellie to get hurt, did not want Neil’s identity to be exposed, and most of all, did not want people to know she returned to the country because of Nigel’s illness.

No matter how much she fussed over the matter, she unfortunately forgot another, most important person—her mother.

She forgot to consider her mother’s feelings.

Luna had a challenging obstacle. She was afraid Natasha would not want to see her.

She did not look at all like Luna Gibson of the past; she was just a stranger to her mother, Natasha.

A stranger who exposed to the public that her daughter wanted to hurt her other daughter’s child, resulting in her daughter having no choice but to leave the country.

Natasha would not accept someone like her visiting. She would think she was just bragging, to show off her successful plan.

In truth, Luna was just expressing her concern, but no one would believe that.

Luna sighed.

She might have been able to find a perfect excuse if she still had plenty of time, making her visit to Natasha sounding like a logical, rational move, but the taxi had already stopped at the entrance to South City Hospital.

She sighed. Accepting her faith, Luna paid the driver and raised her legs to enter the hospital.

Luna did not expect to bump into Lucas the moment she stepped in.

In the hall, she asked the nurse for Natasha’s ward number and stood in front of the elevators. She had just taken her place when Lucas walked over and stood beside her with a bag of food in his hands.

“Luna?“

Even though Luna tried her best to pretend she did not see him while trying to mask her presence, Lucas still spotted her.

“Luna, why are you here at the hospital so early in the morning? Are you here to visit Sir?“ he spoke as he lowered his head, looking at the fruits and cakes in her hand.

“Look at you. You’ll need to bring gifts when you visit other people, but you don’t have to bring gifts when you’re visiting Sir. Someone like him has everything he needs.”

Luna did not want to explain herself to him, so she let her legs carry her into the elevator as she pressed the button for the 18th floor.
