Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1542
“I saved you six years ago, helped you get better and undergo plastic surgery, and even helped take care of your children. Why do you think I did all of that?
“You told me you wanted to return to Banyan City to find Joshua so that Nigel could be cured, but what happened in the end after Nigel was cured?
“You always thought about Joshua and never considered me at all.“
Malcolm stared at Luna with such a cold look in his eyes that Luna could not even associate this man with the same kind, gentle man who had treated her well in the past.
“Luna, I’ve sacrificed enough for you, and even a domesticated rabbit will bite its owner in desperation.
“No matter how mild-mannered a person is, they’ll never be able to withstand disappointment like this countless times.
“Therefore, I had indeed sent my men to kill him so that he’d get the message and leave Merchant City, my territory.
“I’ve loved you for so many years and sacrificed so much for you over the years. I, too, long for a happy ending for both of us. On top of that…“
A gentle expression passed across Malcolm’s face as he stared at Luna. “After all the trouble he stirred up in Merchant City, not only do I want him dead, but
your father does too.
“However, Mr. Landry has always been a soft- hearted person, so I had simply done him a favor.“
Luna immediately took a step back when she heard this.
She wrung her hands together nervously and opened her mouth as though about to say something, but no words came out.
A pitiful expression flashed through Malcolm’s eyes when he saw her pale face. He reached out and gently grasped Luna’s hand. “Luna, the only reason I had done this was that I was too afraid of losing you. You understand where I’m coming from, right?“
Luna removed her hand from his grasp, and a split second later, she turned around. “Malcolm, I’ve already promised my father that I’ll never see Joshua again. Now, as my friend and future…husband, I hope that you don’t continue trying to kill Joshua again.“
She let out an exhale and added, “That’s all I want to say.“
With that, she strode into the house.
Malcolm was right; he had sacrificed so much for her and waited for her for so long.
There was no such thing as a free lunch. Since she had received all the help from him when she was at her lowest, she had to reciprocate and make the necessary sacrifices in return.
In the past, before she returned to Joshua’s side, she had indeed sworn that if she and Malcolm did not
find their true loves in the future, they would marry each other.
At this stage, everything had gone back to square one, and she had to fulfill her promise.
After entering the door, Luna leaned against the door and started crying as she gently stroked her belly.
The only thing she could not let go of was this child. If this baby could arrive safe and sound…
Outside the door, Malcolm narrowed his eyes as he gazed in the direction Luna had left.
He had thought that after so many things had happened and after becoming the prime suspect of Rosalyn’s murder, Luna would hate Joshua’s guts.
Why was she still concerned about whether he had tried to kill Joshua in the past?
How could he let Joshua get off scot—free?
Malcolm narrowed his eyes and ordered, “Sam, give me my phone.“
Sam quickly handed Malcolm his phone, and Malcolm dialed Charles’ number. “Hello, Mr. Landry, I’m Malcolm.
“I heard of what had happened to Mrs. Landry. Please accept my condolences, and I believe that Mrs. Landry will be able to wake up one day. “I have a suggestion… Maybe Luna and I should host our wedding soon so that we can bring some good luck into the family for Mrs. Landry’s sake. How does that sound?“
