Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1536
Christopher let out a sigh as he tried to formulate a drug to help Nigel. “His health has never been the best, and even after receiving a new bone marrow, that doesn’t mean his problems will be solved forever. He still needs to maintain it.
“It’s clear that during this time, both you and Luna were so busy that you couldn’t take him for his follow-up appointments.
“And according to his current state, it seems he has been worrying a lot lately… Maybe he’s too worried about you and Luna.“
With that, Christopher glanced at Nigel’s pale face and continued, “From my usual observation, Nigel is the most mature and level-headed out of your three children, and every time something happens, he’ll be able to comfort his brother and sister calmly.
“Because of this, I thought he wasn’t as close to you and Luna as the other two are, but I never expected that such a young boy would be so worried about two adults’ affairs that he’d fall sick.“
Joshua let out a sigh upon hearing this. “Nigel is like me; he’d always keep his worries to himself.“
With that, he gripped Nigel’s hand tightly and said in a low voice, “You’re just children, and even a grownup like me can’t take care of these things…so how can you possibly help?“
In the distance, Luna tried to stifle her tears as she helped Mrs. Lincoln, the maid, collect the herbs according to Christopher’s instructions.
During this time, she had been so preoccupied with everything going on between Joshua and the Landry family that she had neglected the children’s feelings.
They were the ones who longed, above anything else, for her and Joshua to have a happy ending, but… she still chose the Landry family.
She was not a good mother, and she could never make it up to the children, least of all to Nigel.
If it were not for her, Nigel would never have fainted Just as she was blaming herself, a hand grabbed hold of the herb she was holding.
“Allow me.“
This familiar voice pulled Luna back to reality.
The person speaking was none other than Joshua, who had been clutching Nigel’s hand just a minute ago and blaming himself.
At this moment, he was squatting next to Luna. He snatched the herb away from her and started picking the rest.
Luna froze for a moment, worried that he would recognize her, and quickly grabbed another bunch of herbs and started picking them.
“Are you scared? “ Joshua asked, frowning, when he noticed how nervous this maid was behaving.
Luna froze, then suddenly realized that her hand was shaking.
Mrs. Lincoln, worried that Joshua would discover Luna, quickly smiled and tried to salvage the situation. “She’s new here and has never seen such a handsome, wealthy, and powerful man like Mr. Lynch. That’s why you squatting next to her makes her so nervous.“
Joshua let out a chuckle without even lifting his
head. “Handsome, wealthy, and powerful? What use is any of this?“
He stood up and let out a self-deprecating smirk. “I can’t keep the most important person to me by my side.“
Luna’s chest tightened when she heard his low voice. The most important person…
Was she the most important person to him?
If she was, then why would he attempt to murder her mother?
Was he unaware that as soon as he stabbed the knife into Rosalyn’s chest…they would never be able to reconcile anymore?
He claimed that she was the most important person to him, but did he treat her that way? Did he treat her like a normal human being with thoughts and feelings?
“Daddy, “ Nellie’s tearful voice rang out abruptly. “ Why don’t you go to the entrance to check if Mommy is here?
“I called her just now, and she told me she’d come.“ Joshua frowned, walked over, and hugged Nellie. “My dear, she’ll never come.” Nellie sniffed and replied, ”You’re lying ! Mommy promised me that she’d come, and she’ll stick to her promise! She’ll never abandon the three of us!”
