Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1584
Even though Charles looked fine, he could not even struggle when Joshua was choking him…
Therefore, it was safe to say that Charles was not in the pink of health at all.
With that, Luna furrowed her brows and glanced at Samuel. “Did you use to know my father?”
Samuel curled his lips into a smile. “Of course. Charles, Lucy, and I used to be classmates.”
As soon as she heard this, Luna’s breath caught in her throat. She bit her lip and, after contemplating for a long while, finally asked, “Father Samuel, can you tell me…what happened between the three of you?”
Luna had been wondering about this for a long time. Everything about Lucy Hamilton was a mystery.
In the past, Granny Lynch had shown Luna a photo of Lucy and Samuel and even said that Samuel was Lucy’s first love. On top of that, she had even commented that if only Lucy had married Samuel, everything would be fine.
After that, Granny Quinn accused Lucy of being dirty and seducing Samuel.
On top of that, the Quinn family’s servants had even claimed that Granny Quinn was the one who killed Lucy.
However, when Luna returned to the Landry family, she found out that Lucy and Charles had been soulmates, and not long after they married and gave birth to Jim, Lucy had died.
Therefore, Luna wondered what kind of relationship Lucy had with both Samuel and Charles.
“I guessed that you’d ask me that.” Samuel let out a sigh as he toyed with the cross around his neck. “Actually, if you hadn’t lost the ring, you would’ve found out about everything in the past by now, including the relationship between the three of us.
“However, since it has been a long time now, there’s no harm telling you what happened in the past.”
He let out an exhale and said, staring off in the direction in front of him, “Actually, I was technically the one who broke up Lucy and Charles.
“In the past, Charles and I were best friends, and he was secretly in love with Lucy. He had sacrificed and done plenty of things for her, but she mistook it as me who had done them.
“Because of this, she fell in love with me, and we were together for quite some time, but after that, I did not want to continue lying to her, so I told her the truth, and she and Charles started dating.
“After Charles and Lucy started dating, Charles and I were not friends anymore.”
With that, Samuel pointed at Luna and Gwen’s car and said, “Well, I’m done telling my story, so you should go home now.”
Luna’s entire body stiffened when she heard this. “Is that all?”
“Of course.” Samuel bowed at her. “Have a safe journey.
Amen.”
With that, he turned around and strode back into the church.
After getting into the car, Luna stared at Samuel’s
retreating figure and said, “I can’t help feeling that that isn’t the whole story.”
Gwen pursed her lips. “Well, he’s already said he’s done telling his story, so why would he lie about that to you?”
Luna fell silent, nodded, and replied, “You’re right.”
She shifted into a comfortable position and stretched her tired body. “Mr. Driver, let’s go home now.”
The silver car pulled away from the church.
Inside a small room in the church, Samuel watched Luna’s car leave and closed his eyes, gripping his cross tightly.
Perhaps he had gripped it too tight, but all of a sudden, his chain snapped, and the cross clattered onto the floor.
Samuel suddenly recalled a woman’s screams. “Help—”
“Samuel Quinn, I had left home to come to find you because I couldn’t stand hearing those rumors anymore. I had hoped you would help bring me out of Banyan City!
“Never had I expected you would do this to me!
“I always thought of you as my friend, but what are you taking me for?”
Samuel let out a sigh, opened his eyes, and knelt to pick up his cross. “Lucy, you still can’t forgive me, can you?”
