Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 461
When Luna finally came to, she discovered she was in a hospital. Anne sat next to her bedside, her face etched with worry and concern.
“What are you doing here?“ Luna rubbed her brows and tried to prop herself up.
Anne immediately helped her up and gently laid Luna down against the headboard. “John and I just came back from our trip today. I received a call from Joshua saying you fainted and rushed over immediately. I didn’t even have time to go home
yet! “ With that, Anne glanced at Luna with a somewhat displeased look. “I thought it was just a business trip to Sea City. What happened? Why did you faint?“
Luna gave her a wry smile. “It has nothing to do with the trip.“
Anne sighed. “I know.“ She glanced at the door to make sure no one was eavesdropping, then lowered her voice and said, “The doctor told me that you didn’t get much sleep last night and didn’t eat breakfast this morning. That’s why you fainted.
What happened? Was it Joshua?“
Luna paused for a moment, then slowly nodded.
“D*mn! “ Anne rolled her eyes at that. “How could he let you come into work this morning?“
Luna rubbed her eyebrows again. “He was drunk last night, so he had no recollection at all of what happened. He blamed me for not getting enough sleep last night. I was so angry that I… ”
”You were so angry at him that you decided to get back at him at your own expense?” Anne shot her a somewhat exasperated glance, then reached out to hold Luna’s hand. ”Luna, no matter what, your health should be a priority. Don’t forget what made you return to Banyan City in the first place.”
Luna nodded; she did not forget. The only reason she had returned to Banyan City was so she could get pregnant with Joshua’s child…and save Nigel.
Therefore, it was important that she took care of her health so that the baby would be born healthy as well.
Luna let out a sigh. ”Alright , I promise I won’t do this again.”
She was so agitated by how Joshua and Alice acted that morning that she could not think straight, which resulted in her rash behavior.
Anne sighed again. After a moment, she seemed to recall something and immediately took out her phone to show Luna a picture. ”Do you remember what I told you about someone coining to our hospital and asking for Hailey’s whereabouts? Guess what? When I was on my trip, I ran into one of my colleagues who had resigned. We happened to bring up Hailey Walter, and she told me that Hailey underwent plastic surgery at our hospital two years ago!”
Anne passed the phone over to Luna and continued, ” The surgery Hailey underwent was a small one, but it was successful. My colleague even took a photo of her! “
Luna frowned and was about to tell Anne about Hailey’s death when she caught sight of the photo on the screen. Her eyes widened.
Luna picked up the phone and asked in disbelief, “ Are you…sure this is Hailey?“
Anne rolled her eyes. “Yes, I’m sure. My ex- colleague remembered everything. She said that when Hailey underwent surgery, she kept talking about her family, the Walters… It’s definitely her! “
Anne glanced at the photo again and remarked, “ Although I must say, Hailey does look a little like Alice in this photo.“ Then, after a moment, she changed her mind. “No, no. I mean, she looks a little like what you used to look like.“
Luna gripped the phone tightly and was speechless for a moment. The woman in the photo resembled the Hailey Walter that Luna remembered from six years ago, but it was obvious that her facial features had been altered. She resembled Hailey yet, at the same time, looked a lot like Alice, too.
One thing was certain: she looked nothing like the Hailey Walter who had supposedly passed away.
Luna bit down on her lip, and her hand started to tremble.
