Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 1769

Chapter 1769 Joshua’s words brought pin-drop silence into the room. 

Luna’s face turned terribly pale.

She did not understand; she had explained it all clearly back in Lincoln City. She already said that her trading herself for a one-night stand to get him to rescue Gwen was because she was too anxious. It was just a makeshift plan.

A moment ago, when they were outside, Joshua said that she owed him twice, though she ignored it.

Since when did it become, in his eyes, that she used her body to trade for things or to use her body to beg him to take her in to see Gwen? She only misspoke due to desperation for saving Gwen and offended him. Must he use it to humiliate her that way?

At that thought, Luna was thankful that she did not tell Joshua about her child out of excitement in the garden a moment ago. Joshua was not worthy to know about it!

“Joshua, think before you speak.” Even if she was imprisoned, when Gwen heard Joshua’s words, she could not help but rebuke, “No matter what, Luna was once the woman that loved you the most. She even had four children with you! How could you talk about her in this way?”

Joshua sneered. He could not be bothered with Gwen to continue that topic.

Gwen was right. Luna was once the woman that loved him the most…but she did not love him a t that moment. Because she did not love him, she could blindly ignore the sacrifice he made for her.

When he rescued her from Mr. Hanson, she did not even thank him.

When her mother was in trouble, he took her to Lincoln City through the night.

She thought that he used his body to help her get rid of the poison, so she used this as an excuse to beg him to save Gwen.

Even if later on she found out that she had misunderstood him, she did not even apologize to him.

When Heather passed away, he hugged her and comforted her for the entire afternoon.

What did he get in return?

He had done so many things for her. A moment ago, outside by the entrance, she was not even willing to speak more than a single sentence to him.

She clearly had something on her mind, yet when he prevented her from falling and held onto her, she showed him an icy attitude.

Joshua was a man and he was not willing to be that petty, but that did not mean that he did not have any feelings. He would still be uncomfortable because she ignored him and distanced herself from him!

Seeing how the atmosphere in the living area was quite somber, Theo cleared his throat and quickly headed over to enliven the mood.

He placed the bag of specialties on the coffee table and passed them to Luke and Gwen.

“You guys must’ve been in Merchant City for quite some time alright, right? These are Sea City’s local specialties that Luna’s men brought from Sea City. Have a taste.”

Luke furrowed his brows. Although he was displeased at Luna and Theo’s visitation, he still accepted the gift Theo passed over.

“You got someone to head over to Sea City to bring this here just because you’re visiting Gwen?” remarked Luke icily.

Luna shook her head. “I sent them to Sea City to send Heather’s ashes there. It was just on the way.”

At the mention of Heather, Luke lifted his head and looked at Joshua.

“The accident that you mentioned, well, I’ve got my men to look into it.”

Seeing how Luke was getting into serious matters, Joshua furrowed his brows and swept Theo a glance. He said with a flat smile, “You two are finally in to see Gwen. Are you planning to just stay here and listen to us talk about work when you can chat with her in her room?”

Theo immediately understood Joshua. He got up and got Gwen and Luna to head upstairs.

However, Luna shrewdly realized that the matter that Luke was about to discuss with Joshua had to do with Heather’s death.

That was because before she mentioned Heather’s name, Luke did not mention anything about an accident. After she brought Heather up, Luke immediately talked about the accident. Coincidentally, Heather died because of an accident.
