Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1467
Malcolm glanced at Luna out of the corner of his eye, then shook Charles’ hand with a smile. “Don’t thank me, Mr. Landry. After all, we’ll eventually become a family.“
Charles paused for a moment, then burst into laughter and replied, “Yes, you’re right, Malcolm. We’ll eventually become a family! “
Luna and Bonnie exchanged a look when they heard this.
What was going on?
Should Charles not be thanking Joshua, who had gone back to Banyan City overnight just to find the herb that had saved Rosalyn?
Why was Charles thanking Malcolm instead and even telling him that they would become a family? What was happening?
All of a sudden, the door to the room was pushed open.
Charles let go of Malcolm’s hand and stormed into the room while Christopher and Jim came out.
Luna bit her lip and approached them. “Mr. Christopher.“
She let out an exhale and contemplated her words before saying, “My mother’s illness…was Joshua the one who had saved her?“
“Joshua?“ Christopher’s expression darkened when he heard this name. He scoffed and said, “Master Quinn was the one who had sent the herb over and saved Mrs. Landry’s life! “
As he said this, he took out his phone. “Mr. Lynch’s friend Jude had indeed given me a backpack that contained a box, but…“
He showed a picture of the grass contained within the box to Luna and continued, “This was what he had given me! “
The more he talked, the angrier Christopher got. “He told me that as soon as he managed to find the herb, I would’ve to get the rest of my ingredients ready so that when his herb arrives, it would be added into the broth, and the antidote would be ready as soon as possible! But look what happened?
“I had given him a photo and description of the herb he should be looking for, but he gave me some dried grass instead!
“I had given him such an excellent idea to help Mrs. Landry so that the two of you could reconcile, but this is what I get in return!
“If Master Quinn had not sent the real Clinging Root over last night, not only would I suffer the losses of the remaining ingredients, I’d also become the laughing stock of the medical world! “
The color drained from Luna’s face when she heard this, and she took a small step back.
How could this be?
How could Joshua…insult Christopher with some dried grass?
“Well, Mr. Lynch has a vengeance against the Landry family, so it’s impossible that he would want to save Mrs. Landry, “ Malcolm piped up from a distance. “ But I must say, it was extremely uncouth of him to insult you by giving you grass instead of the precious herb, Mr. Roberts.
“After all, you’re one of the biggest names in the medical world, and to brew an antidote without its most crucial ingredient would be a humiliation.
“Even if he has something against the Landry family, he still shouldn’t have humiliated you like this.“
With that, Malcolm let out a sigh and added, “I guess the fact that the Landry family managed to turn themselves around really got on Joshua’s nerves,
and that’s why he acted so rashly.“
Luna clenched her fists when she heard this. This could not be…
No matter how rashly Joshua acted, he would never do something like this.
Besides, if he intended to humiliate Christopher, he would not have sent such an important person like Jude to accomplish his tasks.
Joshua had assistants to do his bidding. If it were not something important, he would never send Jude all the way to Merchant City.
This must have been a misunderstanding…
“Luna.“ Suddenly, Charles’ voice rang out from inside the ward. “Come in.“
Luna contemplated for a moment, then strode into the room.
As soon as she entered, Rosalyn grabbed hold of Luna’s arm and said with tears streaming down her face, ”My dear Luna, if it weren’t for you, I would never have made it past today.”
