Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 197

Luna thought that when Joshua wanted to announce her identity in front of everyone, it would be done during the company conference in the morning or at another venue.

What she did not expect was that those from the upper management would arrange themselves at Lynch Group Tower once the car stopped.

All of the staff and executives lined on two sides by the entrance, opening a path in the middle.

Looking out from the car, the two sides of the red carpet were people in black.

This was the first time Luna saw such a huge ensemble.

She turned back and looked at Joshua in a daze.

“This is how we welcome important guests to the group, “ said Joshua calmly in a low voice. “You’re the first woman of mine to enjoy this.“

Luna was speechless.

It did not need to be that formal, did it?

At that moment, someone knocked on the car door.

Courtney stood outside with a smile. She was in a pink long dress, her long hair freshly curled with a crystal hairpin to top it off. She looked as exquisite as a fairy tale princess.

She smiled and knocked on the car door. “President Lynch, are you getting out of the car now? Has our

guest arrived?“

Joshua swiftly opened the car door. Once the car door opened, Courtney smiled and looked into the car. “Is our guest…“

She stopped midway in her sentence, and the smile on her face froze because behind Joshua was Luna, who made her incredibly unhappy the day before.

Courtney pursed her lips and recollected herself before she turned to smile at Joshua. “Did you bump into Ms. Luna on the way, and you kindly give her a ride after that?“

Courtney then shot Luna a cold gaze. “Ms. Luna, although you know the president, we have guests today. What are you still staying in the car for? If our guests see you, they’d think that the women of Lynch Group are of your quality.“

Luna chuckled gently. “Okay, I’ll get out then.“

Just as she was about to get out of the car, Joshua held her back.

He calmly got out of the car and stood next to Courtney, towering over her with his height. Courtney could not help but blush as her heart started to race.

To stand so closely next to him, she was satisfied! Courtney shyly bit her lip. “President, you…“

The next second, Joshua reached out his long arms and immediately lifted Luna in his arms, much to Courtney’s bewilderment.

Bonnie and Shannon among the crowd were just as shocked —so were the other staff and executives of the Lynch Group.

Even Luna was so stunned that she could not say anything, nor did she dare struggle. She could only whisper in Joshua’s ears, “What are you trying to do?”

“This is how you should be treated as my woman.“

Joshua smiled and chuckled in a low voice. He carried her and walked past the group, entering the building.

Luna, who suddenly lost her balance, instinctively hugged Joshua’s neck, her chest pressed against his. She could feel the rhythm of his heartbeat and breathing.

Also… There was that pheromone scent she had been obsessed with for almost ten years.

She lifted her head and eyed his angular jawline.

The surrounding staff gasped. Luna had never been so much in the limelight.

She hugged Joshua’s neck tightly, unable to comprehend whether she felt pain or misery more.

Back then, she longed for him to treat her so domineeringly yet gentle.

Luna Gibson loved him for so many years but got nothing from him. Luna, at that moment, only took two months to get everything she wished for.
