Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 474
Neil and Nellie quieted down as soon as they heard Nigel’s words.
Luna, too, let out a deep sigh. “I’ll try to think of something as well.“ She then comforted the two children before she hung up, somewhat exhausted.
Nellie was right. Even if Alice did not dare to treat them like how she did when she kidnapped them, she would still go out of her way to make their lives at Blue Bay Villa miserable.
She would not dare do anything to them when Joshua was around, but what would happen if Joshua was away from home?
Luna pondered over that for a while, then finally had no choice but to call Joshua.
“Is there something wrong? “ Joshua did not seem to be in a good mood. There was a hint of irritation in his tone when he picked up his phone.
Luna frowned and tried to get straight to the point. “ I remember you told me before that Mrs. Lynch has been learning jewelry design on her own, is that right?“
Joshua leaned against the leather seat of his car and closed his eyes, trying to suppress his emotions. “ Yes. Why do you mention this?“
Luna bit down on her lip. “Well, I could use an extra pair of hands now. Instead of hiring someone new to help me, why don’t we ask Mrs. Lynch to work at the company? She’s your wife, so her priority will definitely be the Lynch Group’s profits. Besides, it’d be good for her to start from the bottom if she wants to join Lynch Group.
”When this project comes to an end, I’ll give her all the credit, and she’ll be able to use her achievement to prove everyone who thought she’s just a trophy wife wrong. Then, in the future, you can transfer her to whichever department you want and put her skills to good use.”
That was the only way Luna could think of to protect her children. Although she could no longer stay by their side, she could at least try to keep Alice tied up at work so she would not be able to make things difficult for Neil and Nellie at home.
This project would take at least two or three months to complete. That was not a short period… She would definitely be able to get pregnant with Joshua’s child in this time span, right?
Even if she could not get pregnant, Luna could use her separation from Neil and Nellie as an excuse to bring them out of Blue Bay Villa.
”You’ll be giving Alice all the credit for your work? ” asked Joshua, the grip on his phone tightening as he did. ”This doesn’t sound fair to you.”
This jewelry project was not a small one. Joshua had wanted to use this project to revive Lynch Group’s jewelry design branch, so it required very skilled planning and execution from start to finish.
However, he was confident that Luna had the expertise to pull this off. Moreover, if she managed to execute this project successfully, Luna’s net worth would grow exponentially.
How could she be willing to give up such an opportunity?
“Well, I wanted to make this up to Alice for kidnapping her children. “ Luna smiled. “Why don’t you discuss with Mrs. Lynch tonight? Then, if she wants to take this job offer, she can start tomorrow, and I’ll put her in charge of the most effortless task.“
“Why?“ Joshua did not answer her and instead asked her a question in return. “Considering the relationship you have with Alice, why are you so willing to let her take credit for one of the Lynch Group’s most important projects?“
Luna gripped her phone tightly. “Why do you think I’m doing this, Mr. Lynch?“
After a long pause, Joshua smirked. “Do you think that if you don’t occupy Alice’s time, she’ll try to make things difficult for Neil and Nellie at home?“
Luna’s breath caught in her throat as soon as she heard that.
Joshua was too astute. She could not hide anything from him at all.
Luna bit down on her lip and said, “Maybe you think I’m worrying unnecessarily, but…“
“I refuse to send Alice over to work for you.“
