Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 768
“No matter how hard I try, I can’t ever be as elegant and sophisticated as Ms. Luna.“ Fiona let out an exhale and forced a bitter smile. “Thankfully, Joshua doesn’t seem to mind.“
With that, she turned around to glance at Joshua. “ Aren’t you going to say hello, Joshua? Ms. Luna’s here to attend the party with us.“
Joshua paused for a moment, then strode in their direction. He stuck out his hand gracefully and said, “ What a coincidence.“
It was not a coincidence. He came because he heard Luna was going to be here.
Luna glanced at Joshua’s arm, which still hovered mid -air, but did not reach out to shake it. Instead, she let out a chuckle and tilted her head away. “Yes. What a coincidence. No matter where I go, I seem to run into Mr. Lynch and Ms. Blake together everywhere. Anyone might think I was following the two of you.“
She shot Joshua and Fiona a self-deprecating smile and said, “I’ll leave now so as not to bother you.
Goodbye.“
With that, she turned around and walked away.
Fiona narrowed her eyes slightly, then rushed forward and grabbed hold of Luna’s arm. She was surprisingly strong, to the extent that Luna could not remove herself from Fiona’s grasp.
“Ms. Luna, you’re still angry at Joshua, aren’t you?“ said Fiona in a choked voice. “Don’t take too much notice of what Joshua said earlier. He was just trying to protect me. He had no intention of hurting you at all.“
She stopped abruptly, as if suddenly realizing something, and turned to glance at Joshua. “Joshua, Ms. Luna is still angry at you. Why don’t you apologize to her?“
Joshua narrowed his eyes but said nothing at all.
Luna sucked in a deep breath. She could not understand why Fiona was so adamant about getting on her nerves.
Joshua wanted her to be a timid little dog, so she was doing as he said. She was trying to avoid Fiona so that they would not have any more conflicts, but Fiona always seemed to magically appear before her no matter where she went.
How was she supposed to avoid Fiona, then? Luna lowered her head to stare at Fiona’s hand, which was still clinging onto her arm. “Let go of me.“
However, not only did she not listen, but Fiona even tightened her grasp. “Ms. Luna, since Joshua refuses to apologize to you, then why don’t I apologize instead? Don’t be so hostile toward me. We’re going to be colleagues in the future, and I ‘m hoping we’ll get to be friends. Please don’t make this more difficult than it has to be, okay?“
With that, she gazed at Luna, tears brimming in her eyes. “Besides, I love you and Joshua’s children. I was even thinking of becoming your son’s godmother…“
As soon as she said this, Luna felt a surge of fury rise in her heart.
What did she mean by that? Why did she bring up Nigel?
What was she trying to do, threaten her? Provoke her?
Luna did not know and had no intention of finding out either. She bit down on her lip and warned, enunciating her words carefully, “Ms. Blake, let me warn both you and Mr. Lynch to stay away from my son. If anything bad happens to my son, there’s no telling what I’ll do.“
Fiona’s expression darkened, but despite this, she still refused to let go of Luna and instead clung to her even tighter. “Ms. Luna, please don’t take this the wrong way. The reason I brought up your son is that I think he’s adorable. I…“
Luna felt her wrist starting to hurt, but at the same time, she felt as though every word that came out of Fiona’s mouth was as sharp as daggers.
She flung Fiona away forcefully and roared, “Let go of me! “
Fiona did not see that coming, so her entire body crashed onto the ground from the force. “Fiona! “ Joshua immediately lunged forward to catch her, but he was too late. Fiona had already landed on the ground with a loud thud.
