Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 372
Luna glared at Joshua. “Does Mr. Lynch agree that my not apologizing will affect the business relations between Lynch Group and Walter Group?“
Even though the Walter Group did send Gavin over, he was just an ordinary employee! If the Walter Group was willing to give up on this collaboration because of him, this opportunity was not worth the time and effort at all!
Perhaps Alice did not understand that, but Joshua certainly did. However, he still stared at her and waited for her next move. It was blatant he wanted her to apologize.
“I’m here for an on-site investigation, not to stir up trouble.“ Joshua glanced at Luna, then at Alice. “ Apologize to him now.“
Alice was overcome with glee at his words. She linked arms with Joshua and stared at Luna smugly. “ Come on now, Ms. Luna. Joshua has asked you twice. Aren’t you going to do as he says? I know you two are close, but he’s still your boss and the CEO of Lynch Group! Why are you still hesitating? You’re not as good an employee as you think you are—“
“Alice, “ Joshua interjected before she could finish her sentence. He frowned and removed her arm from his. “I wanted you to apologize to Luna and Gavin.“
Alice froze and gaped at Joshua, unable to believe what she heard. “Me? Apologize?“
Joshua shot her a glance. “Yes. You bumped into Luna and caused this whole misunderstanding. Gavin wasn’t wrong for trying to help her, but neither is Luna. She’s a woman and thought he was being handsy, so she stood up for herself. She’s not wrong either.”
Alice’s face lost its color , and she could only hear a faint buzzing in her head. She stared blankly at Joshua and muttered, ”Does that mean…it’s my fault?”
Joshua cast her another glance but did not reply.
Alice was not the only one stunned by the sudden turn of events. Luna and Gavin were both shell- shocked as well. Who would have thought Joshua would ask his wife to apologize instead? However, upon second thought, they guessed it was reasonable since Alice was the reason this misunderstanding even occurred in the first place.
”Time is ticking, ” Joshua murmured as he peeked at his watch. ”Alice, I didn’t want you to come along on today’s field trip since non-essential workers joining in would only delay the progress. If you’ re planning on wasting our time even more, then I ‘ll ask Lucas to send you back to the hotel instead.”
Alice gritted her teeth at Joshua’s tone. Then, after a moment, she let out a sigh and strode over to Luna and Gavin. ”I’m sorry. It was all my fault! ”
Alice clenched her teeth and turned around, wiping a tear from her face. She then marched off in the direction of the factories. ”I didn’t even do it on purpose. Why did I have to apologize?”
Luna let out a snicker. That was not what Alice said when she insisted that Luna apologize.
“Alice.” Joshua noticed her wavering voice and immediately frowned. He paused for a moment before he ran after her and put his arm around Alice’s shoulder. He whispered something in her ear as if consoling her.
Watching Joshua and Alice’s intimate actions, Luna could not help but feel a painful prick in her heart—as if someone stabbed her.
“Come on, Ms. Luna. Let’s go in now.” Gavin chuckled and started walking in their direction. He deliberately raised his voice as he continued, “Even though Mrs. Lynch made a mistake, Mr. Lynch is still willing to forgive and forget. I guess he still loves her more than anything.”
