Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1153
Neil walked toward Luna and slowly took his knife out. He started cutting the rope that bound her and chuckled a little.
“Although I like the name, I ‘m not called Neil. I ‘m Jake Landry. You should still call me Jake.“
“Okay then…Jake.“
Luna looked at Neil who was helping free her. Her emotions went from despair to surprise, to a complicated feeling.
He said that he was called Jake Landry, but he liked the name Neil. Neil was his original name.
She was seriously injured when she was pregnant, and that was why when her children were born, their health was not in good shape.
Nigel, Neil, and Nellie.
She researched those three names for a very long time. She also consulted many people. In the end, she settled on those three names.
Neil’s name was the first gift she gave to him, yet, at that moment, he could not remember his own identity anymore due to memory loss.
At that thought, Luna was heartbroken.
The moment her ropes were almost untied, Luna immediately pulled Neil tightly into her arms, not saying a word.
Neil’s eyes widened upon Luna’s sudden hug. He instinctively struggled, but no matter what, she was an adult and he was just a six-year-old child. He could not break free.
After struggling for a few moments, Neil did not want to hurt Luna, so he could only sigh and say depressingly while she hugged him, “Ma’am, it’s improper to have physical contact between men and women. Let me go.“
Luna closed her eyes, feeling the warmth from hugging her son whom she had not hugged in a very long time. She smiled.
“You’re just a child. How is it improper? Stop talking, and let me hug you for a while.“
Nigel helplessly reached out and patted Luna on her back, imitating an adult trying to comfort her. “It’s fine, it’s fine. I’ve already chased the bad guys away. Don’t be afraid.“
Luna’s body stiffened a little, then a feeling of warmth spread through her.
No wonder Neil stopped struggling. He thought that she was hugging him because she was scared half to death by those bandits.
Luna closed her eyes and sniffled. “Yes. Thank goodness you’re here.“
When she was almost defiled and bullied, she was indeed on the verge of a breakdown and in despair.
However, when Neil appeared, all of her fear and despair instantly vanished. Nothing made her happier than her long-lost son standing right in front of her, even rescuing her.
Since he already said that, Luna went with the flow, pretending to be aggrieved, hugging him tightly.
“It’s all gone.“
Neil used his few go-to phrases when he comforted women to comfort Luna non-stop.
After a while, Luna’s phone rang. Only then did Luna reluctantly let Neil go and answer the call.
“Hey, Anne.“
Suddenly released from Luna’s hold, Neil stood in the spot, not knowing how to react. After a while, he let out a breath and silently sat next to Luna, waiting for her to finish her call.
Sitting on the chair, he could still feel the remnants o f the woman’s body warmth and aroma lingering on him.
It was a type of…motherly smell.
This was the first time a woman had hugged him. Although Aura was the one that gave birth to him and brought him up, she never hugged him once.
She never gave him an ounce of warmth.
He rested his chin on his hands, looking at this woman who was putting on her clothes while on a call. He inexplicably started to envy her son and daughter. They had a mother like her, so they must have been very happy, right?
Too bad.
How great it would be if she was his mother, too. Soon after, Luna finished her call.
