Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1197
Neil clutched the phone tightly in his hand.
His heart raced wildly. After arranging with Aura to find an opportunity to get Nigel and Nellie out, Neil sat on the bench in the garden anxiously.
It seemed that his gut was not wrong. The doctor might not be wrong either.
Nigel and he were very likely identical twins. Perhaps even Nellie was born at the same time!
However, he was feeling complicated at such a thought. On one hand, he was happy that he could finally have real siblings.
On the other hand, he felt that Joshua and Luna were utterly pretentious the more he thought of the idea.
How could they pretend to be benevolent parents to other people’s children?
During dinner, Neil unprecedentedly took food for Luna and Joshua.
Both Luna and Joshua were shocked yet delighted. Luna looked at Neil, and she then looked at Joshua. Joshua was also looking at her, and their eyes, filled with surprise, met.
Nellie, by the side, smiled and looked at them. She chuckled calmly. “Are you surprised? Let me tell you.“
Nellie smiled while taking food for Neil. “Jake finally thought it through this afternoon! He thought that no matter what, we are family. A family should get along with each other! “
Then, Nellie winked at Luna. She placed the plate of cookies in front of Luna.
“Jake made this for me and Nigel this afternoon! It tastes great, so I kept some for both of you! “
Nellie enthusiastically chirped, “Daddy, Mommy, try some!”
Joshua looked at the plate of cookies calmly. He turned to look at Nigel and Nellie. “Have you had some already this afternoon?“
Nellie nodded seriously. “Mmh! “
Nigel, on the other hand, lowered his gaze and looked at the time. He said seriously, “Nellie and I ate the cookies around four-thirty in the afternoon. It has been two and a half hours since.“
Then, Nigel looked at Joshua. “Mr. Lynch, don’t worry. Any ordinary laxatives or poison should take effect within two hours. Nellie and I aren’t showing any symptoms of chest pain, headache, and diarrhea. There is no poison.“
Nigel’s words instantly turned the atmosphere at the dining table cold. Nellie and Luna’s jaws dropped. They never thought that Nigel would say such things.
Joshua slightly squinted. He let out a sigh of relief inconspicuously.
Neil sneered. He immediately reached out and grabbed hold of the plate of cookies. “Since Mr. Lynch and Ms. Luna think I bear ill intentions of trying to poison you, then you don’t need to eat them! “
The visibly saddened Neil immediately lifted the plate, wanting to throw it backward.
Luna immediately held onto the other end of the plate and placed it back on the table.
“Jake, don’t be angry. They’re just joking. We… We’re not suspecting you of poisoning the cookies. “
Luna turned to look at Nigel. “Y—You just don’t understand Nigel. Nigel is a kid who likes to joke around. He’s just fooling around. Joshua doesn’t mean anything by that either.”
Neil laughed.
