Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1646
“What nonsense!”
As soon as she said this, Heather stormed back to her car as though she had just seen a ghost and drove away.
Jim leaned against his car, staring coldIy in the direction she had left in, and curled his lips into a smirk.
Looking in the rearview mirror, Heather could see every single hint of his expression. She bit her lip and narrowed her eyes.
Jim must have found out something about them!
The day before, inside Charles’ ward, he had deliberately brought up the idea of bringing her and Riley for a DNA test, and right at this moment, he was toying with the suggestion of bringing her for a checkup to determine if she had indeed given birth or not.
That b*stard!
She would get rid of him someday!
After returning home, Luna knocked on Gwen’s room door to say hi, then went into Rosalyn’s room to visit her.
After two days of intensive care, the skin on Rosalyn’s back which had previously decayed, was starting to heal.
The new servant reported every detail to Luna obediently, from the number of times she cleansed and massaged Rosalyn’s body to the frequency of her medications and meals.
Clutching a notebook, the servant reported these timings accurately down to the second.
Seeing how nervous the servant looked, Luna waved her
hand in dismissal and said, “That’s all right; you don’t have to say anything further.”
The servant quickly shut up and closed her notebook. “Do you have any other requirements, Ms. Luna?”
Luna narrowed her eyes, glancing at the servant. “Are you the new maid that Gwen hired?”
After what happened with Vivian the other night, Jim had volunteered to switch out all of the servants in Luna’s house, and this time, Gwen would be in charge of the candidate selection.
Gwen’s family used to run a hotel chain, so she was skilled in choosing the perfect candidate to look after Rosalyn.
However, Luna did not think she would be able to find a servant that was gentle, intelligent, and detail-oriented, which was why Luna had questioned the new servant.
She was worried that this new one would be just like Vivian.
The servant fell silent for a moment, then lifted her head to stare at Luna. “Ms. Luna, I know I can’t lie to you, nor do I intend to. Ms. Gwen wasn’t the one who hired me.
“I was personally selected by Mr. Joshua Lynch among a hundred others and referred to Mr. Luke Jones, who then referred me to Ms. Gwen.”
She could not help sighing as she continued, “I know that some unpleasant things have happened between you and Mr. Lynch, but when he arranged for me to come work here, his only request was that I take meticulous care of Mrs. Landry.
“If…” she bit her lip. “If you don’t feel comfortable with that, you can transfer me to another department. I’ll be perfectly satisfied even if I only get to tend the hedges in the front yard.”
Seeing how quick-witted this servant was, Luna rubbed her brows and replied, “It’d be a waste to have such a smart girl like you tend the hedges.”
She glanced meaningfully at the girl and added, “I’m sure you must’ve found out what happened to the last servant who tried to harm my mother.
“I won’t be biased against you and transfer you away just because you were chosen by Joshua Lynch; please keep up the good work.”
With that, Luna slumped exhaustedly in her chair. “Please leave me be for the moment.”
The servant nodded obediently and left, closing the door behind her.
Luna let out a sigh, stood up, and walked over to Rosalyn’s side. She grabbed hold of Rosalyn’s hand and said, ” Mother, was Joshua Lynch the one who had tried to kill you? Can you wake up and tell me the truth?”
After what happened with the ointment, Luna saw that Joshua would never harm Rosalyn. After all, if he really intended to do so, he would not even let Malcolm have the chance to frame him for it, but what about eight months ago?
Was he the one who had tried to murder Rosalyn?
All of a sudden, the servant knocked on the door. “Ms. Luna, you have a guest, and it’s not someone we’ve seen before.”
