Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1395
When Luna emerged from the walk-in closet, Malcolm was already waiting outside.
She was wearing a navy blue dress with a long train studded with glitter and sequins, which looked like twinkling stars in the night sky.
The dress crisscrossed in the back, exposing Luna’s beautiful scapula. The dress had a halter neck made of ribbons intertwined with her necklace and tied behind her neck, which accentuated her collarbone and neck, making them look fair and slender.
Luna did not have heavy makeup on her face at all. Instead, her features were enhanced with light makeup, which, combined with her flowing hair, made her look stunning.
Despite having mentally prepared himself, Malcolm never expected that…he would be rendered speechless by Luna’s beauty.
He stared at Luna blankly and could not say a word.
Luna was a little bashful when she saw the amazement etched on Malcolm’s face. She let out a somewhat awkward smile and walked over to him, lifting the edge of her skirt up as she walked. “Not bad, right?“
“You’re gorgeous.“ Malcolm let out an exhale and reached out to grab hold of Luna’s hand. “You’re just the woman that I circled the entire globe to rescue.“
Luna could not help chuckling when she heard this. “
Are you still a little dazed from your nap? Didn’t you say it was just a coincidence when you rescued me?“
Malcolm finally came to and let out an awkward smile. “You’re right; I was so stunned by your beauty that I didn’t know what I was saying anymore.“
Luna felt a little shy being praised like this. She pursed her lips and glanced out the window.
The servants were still hard at work trying to find her missing ring. Luna furrowed her brows and asked, “Haven’t they found it yet?“
Malcolm sighed. “The water in the sewer pipes was flowing, so maybe the ring was carried somewhere else.“
As he said this, he put his arm around Luna’s waist and gently rested his head against her body. “Don’t worry; I’ll make sure they continue searching until they find it. It’s just that…it might take some time.“
Luna did not think too much into this.
However, she could not help feeling a little uneasy when Malcolm leaned his head against her like this.
Despite that, she felt reluctant to push him away and instead lowered her head to glance at the time. “ Aren’t we supposed to leave soon?“
The expression in Malcolm’s eyes dimmed. “Yes, it’s about time.“
Inside a hospital in Merchant City.
Joshua’s eyes were shut as he rested. He had regained most of the color in his cheeks.
The doctor furrowed his brows as he injected some medication into Joshua’s body. “Mr. Lynch, I do think you still have to get some rest.
“Even though this medication can help get rid of your tiredness temporarily so that you can deal with some things…the side effects are drastic, and you might pass out for a few days after this.
“Your health hasn’t always been good, so I strongly advise against doing this! “
Joshua leaned against the headboard with his eyes shut and replied in a low, bitter voice, “If I lose the most important thing to me due to exhaustion…then I won’t be happy, even if I have great health.“
Seeing how adamant Joshua was, the doctor sighed but did not reply.
“Sir! “ All of a sudden, Lucas stormed into the room. “I ‘ve found out what happened! The Quinn family had been behind this all along! “
Lucas breathlessly splayed out all the information he had obtained in front of Joshua and continued, “The person who kidnapped Ma’am in Banyan City was the second son of the Quinn family, Hunter.
“He somehow managed to obtain Jim Landry’s stamp and forged his signature when renting a car in Banyan City. On top of that, he even disguised one of the Quinn family’s private planes as the Landry family’s and requested a special track at the airport.
“After she was brought to Merchant City…Ma’am had never left Quinn Mansion, not even a single step.“
