Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1257
As soon as she heard Aura’s voice coming from the other side of the door, Luna’s entire body stiffened.
At this moment, her body was pressed up against the door by Joshua, only mere centimeters away from Aura.
If Aura pushed the door open at this moment, she would be able to see how disheveled Luna looked after Joshua kissed her.
If Aura walked in on them like this…she would definitely destroy the antidote that she used to threaten Joshua out of anger.
If this happened…Granny Lynch would never get better.
As soon as she thought of this, Luna lifted her head to look at Joshua.
Joshua furrowed his brows and replied to Aura impassively, “Don’t come in; I’m applying medicine to my wound. I’ll be done in a while.“
Aura paused for a moment, then said in a softer tone than before, “What wound? Why don’t I help you with it?“
“No, there’s no need. Just wait for a little longer, “ Joshua answered in a low voice. Then, he quickly pressed a kiss onto Luna’s forehead and hid her in his office bathroom.
As soon as Luna closed the bathroom door behind herself, she heard Aura open the office door.
A split second later, Aura’s gentle, syrupy voice rang out, “I thought you’d continue to stay at home today, and I bought you some breakfast, but you had already left for work when I arrived.
“Initially, I wanted to come straight up to give you your breakfast, but your secretary stopped me. She told me you were in the middle of meeting all the heads of departments and told me to wait.
“I waited for a long time until your secretary told me that you’d finally reached the last person on the list, and that person was Luna.
“I thought since Luna isn’t a stranger to both of us, so I decided to come in.“
With that, Aura glanced around the room and asked, “Where is she, by the way? Why don’t I see her?“
Joshua curled his lips into a smile. “She left a long time ago. It’s not like I have much to say to her anyway.“
A glimmer of triumph flashed through Aura’s heart when she heard how cold Joshua’s attitude was upon bringing up Luna.
She gently set the food down on Joshua’s desk. “ Joshua, I remember you used to be quite close with Luna… That day, during the press conference, you even ripped open your wounds because of her. Why are you…“
Joshua lifted his head to shoot her a cold glance and replied, “I saved her, but she’s been complaining that I didn’t protect Neil as I should have. Most importantly, she’s been caring about Theo more
than she did me. Do you think I’d be pleased with that?“
Aura handed Joshua a set of cutlery. “Well…“
Unbeknownst to anyone, she was absolutely delighted by this. She had known since the start that according to Luna’s personality, she would definitely be ridden with guilt after seeing how Theo ended up.
If she were guilt -ridden, then Luna would definitely treat Theo much better than she ever had.
As for Joshua, knowing how jealous he used to get whenever he saw Luna with other men, Aura knew that he could not possibly ignore everything, especially with Luna taking care of Theo so well.
Everything was going according to her plan!
As soon as she thought of this, Aura placed a cup of coffee in front of Joshua with a triumphant look.
Joshua noticed the expression on her face, and seeing how pleased she looked as she handed the coffee to him, he suddenly felt a little repulsed.
The coffee spilled all over him with a thud.
Aura immediately grabbed a tissue and tried to help him clean up as she said, “Let’s go into the bathroom and clean it with some water. We can’t possibly clean this up like this.“
With that, she strode toward the bathroom.
Luna, who at this moment was hidden in the cramped space that was the bathroom, felt her heart leap into her throat.
She clutched the door tightly and was so nervous that she could feel her own heartbeat.
