Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 576
The cop stood up and said, “Actually, I’ve already finished recording her statement. It’s just that she kept on insisting that we arrest her boss…”
Joshua smiled at him. “Thank you so much, officer.” Then, he lowered his face to glance at Irene. “Ms. Cook, shall we go now?”
Irene was already excited by the fact that Joshua Lynch, the richest man in Banyan City, wanted to send her home, but with him directly talking to her, she felt as though she was on cloud nine.
She stood up somewhat dazedly and replied, “Okay…”
Because she had been so badly beaten up, coupled with her excitement, Irene almost fell as soon as she stood up.
Joshua immediately grabbed hold of her. “Be careful.”
Irene was so overjoyed by his reaction that her entire body felt light as if she was about to float off like a balloon at any minute.
Was this a dream? Why else would Joshua Lynch treat her so kindly all of a sudden!
Joshua dragged her out of the police station. Irene was so overcome by delight that she did not resist and got into his black Maserati parked outside.
“Mr. Lynch, I’ve never had the chance to sit in such an expensive car.” Irene leaned against the backseat and looked at Joshua, grinning from ear to ear. “ Thank you for spoiling me like this.“
Then, she looked down to glance at the time. “It’s already 11 p.m. now… You came to take me home at this hour… Why don’t we go to a nearby hotel instead?“
Lucas, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, almost spat out his water when he heard that.
This woman…
Mr. Lynch merely came to bail her out and take her home out of kindness. What was she thinking?
How could she even think Mr. Lynch was interested in her? How did she even have the audacity to suggest spending the night at a hotel together?
The atmosphere in the car fell silent.
Irene did not understand why Joshua did not answer. She furrowed her brows. “Did I do something wrong?“
Then, she sighed and added, “Mr. Lynch, I know you’re a wealthy man, and you refuse to stay anywhere less than five stars, but there aren’t any five-star hotels nearby… It’s already past 11 p.m., so let’s just spend the night at any hotel we can find. What do you think?“
“I think you need this.“ Joshua frowned and handed her a mirror.
Irene froze. “What do you mean…“
“He wants you to look at yourself in the mirror! “ Lucas could not take it anymore and rolled his eyes at her. “Mr. Lynch isn’t interested in you, and he never will be! “
He then added, “I can’t believe you. Mr. Lynch was just helping you out of kindness, and you thought he wanted to sleep with you… Only someone as superficial as you would spread baseless rumors about Luna.“
Upon hearing Luna’s name, Irene immediately came to.
When she was in the bathroom this afternoon, she had overheard Mrs. Allen say that Luna had s*xual relations with both Joshua and his assistant…
As soon as she remembered this, Irene broke out in cold sweats.
“You… Are you here to beat me up again for Luna?“
“You’re a bit slow, aren’t you? “ Joshua glanced at her impassively, then extended his hand toward her. “Give me your phone.“
Irene frowned and immediately clutched her phone close to her. “What do you want?“
“Don’t worry.“ Joshua curled his lips into a smirk. “I just want to find out what you said exactly that made Luna so angry that she would send people to beat you up.“
Irene bit down on her lip. Then, after a long while, she let out an exhale and handed her phone over to Joshua. “Just…don’t touch anything else! “
Joshua furrowed his brows, took the phone from her, and flipped through its contents.
The things she had said in the company group chat were very explicit and made him uncomfortable, but
Joshua suddenly noticed one of Irene’s recent contacts and narrowed his eyes.
”How do you know Alice Gibson?”
