Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1547
“Stop!“
Jim was just about to drag Luna out of the house when Charles turned to stare at him. “If you want to leave, you should do so yourself! Who gave you the right to take Luna with you?“
Charles strode over and pulled Luna’s hand out of Jim’s. “Just now, Malcolm called me and suggested that they bring him and Luna’s wedding forward to bring some good luck to Rosalyn. The reason I came home today was to talk to Luna about this.“
With that, he glanced at Jim out of the corner of his eyes and said, “Now that you’re taking her away, who am I supposed to talk to?“
Jim could not help snickering when he heard this. “ Bring some good luck to Mother? Only an idiot like you would believe Malcolm’s tricks! “
“Shut up! “ Charles slammed his hand on the coffee table so hard that Christopher’s machine shook.
Christopher knew that he could not continue staying here any longer, so he quickly packed his things up, getting ready to leave.
As he did this, the lab report that he had generated fell off the table and landed next to Charles’ feet.
Charles picked up the paper, frowning.
The report clearly stated that Heather and Jim had been poisoned with the same drug, which had both been countered.
As soon as he saw this, Charles narrowed his eyes and glanced at Jim. “You were poisoned too? And the effects were countered as well? Who did you do it with?“
No matter how tense their relationship was, Jim was still his son, and Jim’s refusal to find a girlfriend over the years had worried both him and Rosalyn tremendously.
However…
Jim had been with a woman last night.
Jim could not help sneering when he heard this. “ What business is it of yours?“
Heather swiveled her gaze and piped up, “Last night after Jim got drunk, he brought Luna out of the house for a walk. Could it be— “
“Shut up! “ Charles, Jim, and Luna snapped at her unanimously before Heather finished.
Luna glanced at Charles in shock but did not say a word. She did not expect that this man, who adored Heather more than anything, would yell at her like this.
“Heather, there are some things we can’t say! “ Charles glared at Heather, then turned to look at Luna. “You were with Jim the entire night, so you must know what that girl is, right?
“Bring that girl to us someday, and no matter who she is or where she comes from, we’ll take her as a daughter-in-law if she’s willing to. We Landry men always take responsibility for our actions.“
Luna pursed her lips and glanced at Jim.
Her hunch was correct.
Jim scoffed and stared coldly at Charles. “Old man, you can’t even take care of your own matters, so stop sticking your nose into mine. What does it have anything to do with you whether I marry that girl or not?”
Charles glared at him, then turned to glance at Heather. “Kneel!”
Heather thought she had misheard him. She stared at him dazedly and forced out an awkward smile. “ Father, you… are you asking me to kneel?”
“Who else would I be talking to?” Charles gazed at her frostily. “I had trusted you and believed you when you told me Jim was the one who had poisoned you and sabotaged your reputation, but how are you going to explain this?”
Heather felt a chill go down her spine.
Her legs started to shake as she said in a trembling voice, “What do you mean, how am I going to explain this…?”
