Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1529
Luna furrowed her brows and circled past Heather again. “I don’t like drowning my sorrows with alcohol.“
With that, she strode down the stairs.
After she had just taken two steps, Heather stopped her once more. “Why are you so afraid to drink with me, Luna? I won’t laugh at you if you’re lightweight.“
Luna frowned upon hearing this. She glared at Heather and said, “Since you know I’m lightweight, why do you keep on insisting on drinking with me? What are you up to?“
Heather’s entire body stiffened when she heard this.
She suddenly realized that out of her desperation, she had accidentally said the wrong thing.
She pursed her lips and grabbed hold of Luna, smiling. “Of course I’m not up to anything. I just thought you’re probably so preoccupied with everything that’s happened lately. After all, Mother raised me since young, and I, too, am upset to see her like this.
“I’ve been thinking that you and I haven’t gotten the chance to have dinner together and chat ever since you returned to our family. Mother used to long for us to reconcile and be as close as real sisters.
“Therefore, seeing how Mother is doing now, I’ve wanted to have a drink with you not only to drown our sorrows but to get to know you better as well.
“Maybe Mother will even get better if she sees us getting closer with each other.“
Luna narrowed her eyes upon hearing this. She could tell that Heather intended to drink with her tonight. Even though she did not know what Heather’s motives were…
She still smiled and agreed to her request.
“It’s a bit boring just to drink, so why don’t I go downstairs and whip us up some food?“
Heather paused, then smiled and replied, “There’s no need to go to so much trouble; I’ve already asked the kitchen to prepare some food. Shall we go to your room?“
Luna narrowed her eyes slightly, tucked her phone in her pocket, and nodded. “Alright.“
Since Heather had already ordered the kitchen to prepare the food, it would be impossible for her to spike the food and drinks with drugs that could
cause Luna to miscarry or pass out.
Luna was curious to see what tricks Heather had up her sleeve.
Seeing that Luna finally agreed, Heather let out an exhale and felt the weight lift off her shoulders.
She had already invited Malcolm to come to Landry Mansion in an hour, so if she could not get Luna to drink the spiked wine in time, then her plan would fail.
The two of them sat down in the bay window of Luna’s room.
Luna gazed out at the night sky and said, “I never thought you would invite me for a drink tonight. Did you used to like drinking?“
Heather paused for a moment, then let out an awkward smile. “I never…liked drinking. I just thought you and I could use a drink tonight.“
Luna turned around and glanced at Heather impassively. “I guess you’re not a very good drinker either. Neither Joseph nor Natasha can hold their liquor, and Aura is only slightly better at drinking than I am, so how can you possibly like drinking?“
Heather’s expression darkened upon hearing this.
She did not like anyone bringing up her birth family, nor did she like hearing anyone talk about Joseph and Natasha Gibson.
However, at this moment, not only did Luna bring them up in conversation, but she even compared her with the two of them!
What a b*tch!
If she had a choice, Heather would never want to be Joseph and Natasha’s daughter at all!
As soon as she thought of this, Heather stared at Luna through narrowed eyes.
This woman should have died six years ago, but she survived against all odds!
As soon as she thought of this, Heather gritted her teeth and gazed out the window with a look that could kill, but despite that, she still said in a calm tone, ”All these names sound too foreign to me. Apart from Aura, I’ve never met any of them at all. ”
Luna smiled. ”Well, then you should go and see them some time.”
