Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1292
“Are you sure you have never met her before?“
Celia was so stunned by Joshua’s words that her knees almost gave out. She needed to lean herself against Michael’s body for support to help her stand up normally.
“Michael, let’s go!“ She pretended not to hear what Joshua had said and quickly left the scene with Michael’s help.
Joshua could not help but curl his lips into a smirk as he watched them leave.
Did they honestly think that they had covered up their tracks so successfully that no one would ever discover their wrongdoings?
Despite this, Joshua knew that he had other more important things to deal with at the moment. After all, his mother had waited almost 30 years for the truth to be revealed, so it did not matter if she had to wait a little longer.
As soon as Granny Lynch’s problem was dealt with…he would unleash his wrath once and for all. If that happened, none of them would be able to escape!
Inside the ICU.
Because she did not receive any booster dose for the poison that Dr. Janet had administered, Luna’s condition was improving day by day.
To avoid suspicion, Dr. Janet continued to deliberately alter the machines in Luna’s room. She changed the machines’ readings to make it seem like Luna was no longer curable, both to professional doctors and ordinary folk.
“You still need to hold on for three more days, “ Dr. Janet told Luna as she fine-tuned the machines. She sighed and added, “The way Mr. Lynch looked at me just now was terrifying. Thankfully, I managed to escape. Otherwise, I ‘m afraid he might kill me if you suffer another attack.“
A pale-looking Luna lay on the bed and forced out a smile. “Is he really that scary?“
“Yes, he is.“ Dr. Janet sighed. “I have known Joshua for many years. He had approached me when Granny first fell sick, asking me to help look after her.
However, this is the first time I ever saw that look on his face… It’s too scary.“
What she said made Luna laugh. “Then, is Granny Lynch getting better?“
Dr. Janet’s hand, which had been fiddling with the machines, stiffened when she heard this. “She has recovered a lot, but for her to fully recover, she still needs to wait another three days for the antidote to arrive.“
Luna nodded. Truth be told, her condition had improved. It had been challenging initially, but she had grown used to the feeling of being ill, so it was not too much of a struggle.
However… Being forced to stay in the ICU, unable to move or use her phone, was incredibly boring. Luna could not do anything apart from staring up at the ceiling and listening to the beeping of the machines next to her.
On top of that, the smell of all the disinfectants made her feel uneasy.
“Unfortunately, being bored out of your mind is something that I can’t help you with. Remember, everyone thinks you’re on the verge of dying. If someone catches you using your phone…this lie will be exposed. All I can do for you is open the door and let some fresh air in.“
Dr. Janet glanced at her watch. “It is dinner time. I’m guessing no one will come here, so I’ll leave this door open. In thirty minutes, the nurses will return for their shift and close the door.“ With that, Dr. Janet turned around and left.
The door to Luna’s room was left open just a crack. The fresh air had started to circulate into the room.
Luna lay on her bed and took a deep breath of fresh air, feeling it soothe and refresh her body.
After God knew how long…
All of a sudden, Luna caught a whiff of cheap men’s cologne in the air. The smell was so strong that it made Luna dizzy.
She opened her eyes.
She recognized this scent. It belonged to Michael!
Luna subconsciously glanced in the direction where the smell had come from—Michael pushed open the ICU door and gazed at Luna with a lustful expression.
”Joshua slept with my woman. Today, I ‘ll take my revenge by sleeping with his!”
