Chapter 611-620
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 610Luna laughed helplessly, “I get it, Anne. I know you’re worried about me. I have made my arrangements.“After simply comforting Anne, Luna yawned and hung up.While brushing her teeth, she turned on her phone and roughly browsed through the news that day.The Walter family media company has been putting all their money’s worth into hyping Irene’s news.Almost all of the headlines in Banyan City had been taken up by Luna and Irene’s conflict.Alice was clearly planning to ruin Luna’s reputation completely.Luna smiled coldly and called Theo.10 a.m.In one of the sports arenas in downtown Banyan City, it was extremely lively.A banner was placed in the most prominent place. It wrote, (Seek Justice for Irene Cook, Fight Against Evil..)There was a crowded group of reporters.Every one of them had their heads lowered. They were busy dealing with the questions they were about to ask.In the corner, Luna, in a face mask and a cap sat together with Theo, who was equally dressed up. They pretended to deal with the notes in their hands. Their actions were too professional. On top of that, they both have press cards, so no one suspected them.On the stage, the emcee was narrating the incidents that Irene has suffered through the past few days.Below the stage, besides the reporters, many supporters of Irene came with banners, as well as other passionate onlookers.“Okay, since everyone is caught up to speed, let’s welcome today’s main guest. A new generation of an inspirational lady, Irene Cook! “Irene, who was in a wheelchair, was pushed up the stage by a volunteer.At that moment, Irene’s face did not have any color. There were still purple bruises on her face.She looked feeble and was pushed to the microphone.“Hello, everybody. I ‘m glad that you can attend my press conference. Although I don’t look too bad, I ‘m not a celebrity nor a social media influencer. The only reason why I wanted to hold this press conference is to bring justice to a woman who has been using her connections and power to suppress others evilly.“Theo gritted his teeth. “This woman sure is shameless enough! “Luna laughed a little. She patted his arm to get Theo to calm down.Soon, the reporters started asking questions.“Ms. Cook, can you tell us in detail the events that took place that night?“Irene wiped her face and started complaining tearfully, “That night was the first day a colleague and I started working. Luna initially did not bother with us, but one of our colleagues got her to buy us a meal, so she forcefully agreed to it.“Halfway during the meal, she said she wanted to go to the toilet, but she did not come back after a long while, so I went over to look for her. Turns out, I heard her arguing with another person. That person said that she had been with a lot of men…“Then, Irene could not help but sob, “I initially did not believe it, but at that time, Luna was very fierce. She told that person that if they were to continue talking, she would beat them dead. When I overheard that, I was scared half to death because I always thought that Luna was a very gentle and kind woman.“I accidentally made some noises and Luna noticed me. Then, she choked me by the neck and told me that I was fired. She said that if I were to tell anybody of that night’s incident, she would take my life…“Upon Irene’s words, the reporters gasped.The crowd was in a heated discussion. Who knew that Luna, who was so gorgeous and capable, would be so arrogant!Irene, on stage, continued with a teary eye. “She is powerful and influential, I could only surrender, so I only complained a little in the staff’s group. I never thought that she would send men to beat me up that night. They even forced me to eat the trash from the bin…“I truly could not take such humiliation, so I reported it to the police. Who knew that even when the police knew that the men were sent over by Luna, they still said that they did not have enough evidence, so they could not do anything to her. Luna became even more arrogant then.“I knew I was no match for her, so the next day, I went to her office to kneel and apologize to her, but she still would not let me go. She said she wanted to get rid of me. I had no choice, that was why I chose to jump off the building…”Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 612At those words, everyone turned to look at Luna.Then only did they notice that the female reporter was Luna herself!“These photos are faked, they’re made up! Luna was also the one who faked the contract! “Irene gritted her teeth and glared at Luna fiercely. “I never thought that at this moment, you still refuse to change. You even want to use such horrible tactics to defame me! “Then, Irene bit her lips. Her tears could not help but fall from the corner of her eyes. “Luna, I know that you’re powerful.“Irene wiped her tears. “For a person like you, faking this would be a piece of cake. You said that I’m hyping it up, but who would risk their life to make news? At that time, I truly did not want to live anymore, if not I wouldn’t have jumped off the building. I even broke both of my legs. It’s not like you can’t see it…“Luna raised her eyebrows. “Ms. Cook, did you really break both legs?“Luna’s questioning gaze and tone weakened Irene’s aura a little.The woman behind Irene gently tapped on her shoulders. Irene seemed to be instantly encouraged. She lifted her head up. “Luna, what do you mean by that? I jumped down from such a high place… how could it be fake?“Luna smiled. “What if it’s fake?“Irene bit her lips. She could not hold back her anger. “I have been humiliated and bullied by the people you sent. I was in so much despair I even jumped off a building and broke both my legs! Yet you are still here casually questioning me if I’m faking it!““Whether you are faking it or not, everyone will know it soon.“Then, Luna directly took her phone out and dialed a number. “Old Mr. Gordon, please come in.“The moment she hung up, the door of the press conference venue was pushed open by someone.An old man with a head of grey hair slowly entered with the help of Theo’s assistant.Someone among the reporters exclaimed, “It’s Old Mr. Gordon! ““The world’s best orthopedic doctor! “ “My goodness, a doctor like him has strictconditions on patients seeing him, how is he here in Banyan City?“Luna chuckled. She strode over and helped Old Mr. Gordon over together with Theo’s assistant.“Coincidentally, my boyfriend, Theo Allen, his father is good friends with Old Mr. Gordon, despite their age differences. Once he heard that Ms. Cook broke both her legs because of me, my boyfriend specifically got Old Mr. Gordon over to help diagnose Ms. Cook, hoping to revive your both legs.“Irene’s face was instantly paler than the wall behind her.She bit her lips and curled up into the wheelchair. “No, I don’t need it! Stop using such tactics to please me!““Do you not want me to please you or do you just don’t dare to let Old Mr. Gordon check up on you?“Luna smiled and looked at her. Her eyes were smiling too. “Ms. Cook, don’t forget, you have a million fans supporting you. What if Old Mr. Gordon could cure your legs?“Irene gritted her teeth. She suddenly did not know how to react.The lady behind Irene, who helped push her wheelchair, furrowed her brows tightly.Their plan was initially flawless. They even predicted that Luna might find an orthopedic doctor over, so they bribed all the orthopedic doctors in Banyan City.However, they did not expect that Luna might get the best orthopedic doctor, Old Mr. Gordon, over.The lady bit her lips and let go of the wheelchair. She wanted to sneak off among the chaos.Luna reacted quickly. She immediately blocked her and grabbed her wrist.“Ms. Yvonne Walter, long time no see.“Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 613Actually, ever since the beginning when they entered, Luna had already noticed the lady that accompanied Irene.Although she was wearing a face mask, her eyes were unique.Her eyes were narrow and long, with the end of her eyes going upward. In between her brows and eyes, there was also a rather large mole.Luna would remember such eyes after seeing them once. When they were at a closer distance, she was even more sure that this woman in a mask was Yvonne Walter, the person that was beaten up badly by Joshua’s men a month ago because she kidnapped Neil and Nellie!The daughter of Mr. Walter, the butler.It looked like Mr. Walter’s men had been almost nabbed up by Joshua and Theo recently.Even an unimportant duty like pushing a wheelchair for unimportant people like Irene, Yvonne had to do it personally.Being blocked by Luna, Yvonne furrowed her brows. “Move aside.““What if I don’t?“Luna smiled, raised her hand, and pulled off Yvonne’s mask.Yvonne’s panicked face had been captured by the reporters, the image was broadcast live onto the screen. “Idiot! “In Blue Bay Villa, Alice, who had been paying attention to the live broadcast of the press conference angrily threw her cup!Yvonne Walter, that idiot!She had such obvious facial characteristics, did she think that Luna would not recognize her just because she wore a mask?Did Mr. Walter not have more men in Banyan City? Why did Yvonne need to be there to embarrass everyone?At that thought, Alice angrily picked up her phone. “ Mr. Walter, what is going on? Why is Yvonne at the press conference? Where are your other men? Are they all dead?“On the other end of the line, Mr. Walter sighed, “Ms. Hailey, all of my men in Banyan City… have been secretly nabbed by Theo’s men.““What?“ Alice was so furious she stood up. “Theo’s men got rid of your men?“Theo was just an artist, how did he have so much power?“Yes, I was shocked too, but it’s the truth.“Mr. Walter, on the other end of the line, sighed, “I have recently been targeted too. I’m being followed. I suspect that they are Theo’s men too.“Ms. Hailey, Yvonne has been exposed. Joshua would soon connect this incident to you. You better… think of a plan quickly.“Then, Mr. Walter hung up before Alice could respond. Alice held onto the phone. Her mind was in a mess. How could this…After the Walter family went down, her father has even passed the remaining secret forces of power to Mr. Walter the butler.How could they be so quickly…Alice was in a daze for a long while before she raised her head and looked at the TV screen.The live broadcast was still going on.Irene clearly could not stop Luna’s advances. Old Mr. Gordon is already checking up on both her legs.Irene’s face turned to ash.In front of the reporters’ cameras, Old Mr. Gordon’s assistant slowly broke off the cast on Irene’s leg.“What nonsense! “ After taking off the cast, Old Mr. Gordon did not even touch Irene when he sneered and said, “I have been an orthopedic doctor for so many years. Not once have I seen a case like this when both legs have been broken! Perhaps, she might have been injured when she jumped off the building, but it’s not serious! “Then, Old Mr. Gordon took the small hammer that was used to break off the cast and gently knocked against Irene’s leg. “Miss, does it hurt?“Irene was in pain. She was in so much pain she almost cried, but to continue the act, she could only force her tears down. “It does not hurt.”“How could it not hurt?” Old Mr. Gordon sneered, “ Whether you broke your leg or not, the place that I hit should hurt. Stop pretending.”The crowd was in an uproar.Old Mr. Gordon was a world -renowned orthopedic specialist. At such an old age, he would not ruin his own reputation for such things!Even if Theo and Luna were rich, they would not be able to get such a respectable man to lie!Therefore… Irene’s legs were not broken?The emcee had an ugly expression. “Ms. Cook, what is going on?”“Yes, what is going on?”“Ms. Cook, are you truly trying to hype this up, fooling everyone for sympathy?”“Please answer us!”Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 614Irene secretly clenched her fists.The entertainment company initially promised her that after the press conference, they would start preparing a live show for her. They would also send her for small cosmetic procedures and get her advertisements.She could have a bright future!All thanks to Luna, she lost everything… No! This could not happen!Irene gritted her teeth hard. She was a poor student coming from the countryside. It took so hard for her to finally have the opportunity to climb up the social ladder. She would not give up! She could almost feel it, there was only a step left!Irene glared at Luna grudgingly. There was loathing in her eyes.In a short moment, she cried again.“Yes, that’s right.“ Irene wiped her tears and said while crying. “Both my legs are not broken, but… I didn’t mean to lie to all of you! “The entire venue was in silence.The reporters aimed their microphones at Irene, waiting for her to speak.Irene wiped her tears. She could not help but sob, “I was really forced into desperation by Luna, that was why I chose to jump off the building. I truly wanted to die, but I was rescued in the end. Not only did I not die, but my legs were not broken as well.“I deliberately pretended that my legs were broken so that I could attract all your attention on one hand, getting all of you to help me.“On the other hand…“ Irene sobbed and looked at Luna. “I’m afraid that if Luna knew that my injuries were not that serious, she would use a more cruel tactic against me…“She said with all her heart as if she was truly afraid that Luna might target her once more.Behind Irene, Luna got Theo to hold onto Yvonne while laughing a little.“Irene, are you still pretending? I bet you don’t know, the company that you signed on with had closed down ten minutes ago.“Irene turned around and glared at Luna in shock. “ Impossible! How could this happen! “Luna laughed gently and opened a news article, projecting it on the huge screen.It was the news on the closure of the company that Irene signed on with.The real person controlling the company in the background was Mr. Walter the butler.On the surface, the company was a media entertainment company, but secretly, they have done a lot of unseemly things.The night before, Nigel spent the entire night hacking into their system and sent all the evidence of the crimes they committed to the police.Luna and Nigel have strictly calculated the time from reporting them to the appearance on the news.It had to happen just when Irene was holding the press conference.Irene looked at the news. She was in total bafflement.H-How… could this have happened? The people from the company even described to her a perfect blue plan for her future.How could this be…“Wake up.“ Theo looked at Irene coldly. “Do you think they really wanted to give you a life that you wanted? Do you think you have any commercial value? It’s only because you were stupid and crazy enough to have a feud with Luna, so they deliberately used you to target Luna, that’s all! “Irene immediately slumped to the ground from her wheelchair. Her world seemed to have collapsed on her in that instant.“T—This… is… i—impossible. Impossible…“ “Irene.“ Luna walked over and said flatly, “We’re live now. Have you ever thought that you would not be able to survive in Banyan City in the future because of this incident?“Irene bit her lips. She was trembling terribly.“I…”“There is a chance to redeem yourself.“ Luna chuckled. She moved aside and pointed to Yvonne, who was being apprehended by someone behind her.Luna said, “As long as you tell me, what relationship do you have with her? That’s all.”Irene bit her lips. She raised her head and looked at Yvonne.“Me and her… actually, everything I said and did today was taught by her!”Then, Irene took out her phone from her pocket.“I was afraid that she would not keep her word, so I secretly took a video! ”Luna took Irene’s phone over, opened the video, and projected it onto the huge screen.“How could this be planned by Yvonne Walter?” In the president’s office at Lynch Group Tower,Lucas was stunned looking at the live broadcast on the computer screen.“Sir, Yvonne Walter, if I remembered correctly, is Mrs. Lynch’s good friend, right?”Joshua leaned back on his chair and looked at the screen. He narrowed his eyes a little.Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 615“As long as you cooperate with us, you will have an extremely bright and limitless future.“At the press conference, on the huge screen, Yvonne’s fierce expression and tone rang through.“You have to be firm that you are being targeted by Luna.“Irene, who was sitting opposite her, said timidly, “ But, the police have already confirmed that this incident had been planned by someone from Sea City. It had nothing to do with Luna…“Yvonne rolled her eyes at her. “Someone from Sea City? Could you find that person? Would a random person from Sea City create more news or Luna, the talk of the town? Go and jump off a building tomorrow. Then, you say that you were being forced to jump off the building because of Luna! “Irene bit her lips. “M-Must… I jump off a building?I’m scared…“Yvonne sneered, “If you’re scared, how do you expect to live a high social status life? Are there such things as low risks that yield high rewards in life?“Irene slowly clasped her hands together. She bit her lips and looked at Yvonne.“But…““No more buts. Tomorrow, go find a lower level. Maybe the third floor. The second floor would be too obvious. Put some protective gear on you, then get a few witnesses to film you and you’re almost done.“ “O-Okay…then.“The video has finished playing on the huge screen. The entire venue was in an uproar.Before the press conference that day, no one expected that the results of the press conference would be so sensational.Everyone was so sure that after the press conference that day, it would be the downfall of Luna the talented designer.After all, no matter how capable one was, if they were vicious and heartless, they would not be able to go far.However, no one expected that such a piece of sensational news was just a well-planned false accusation against Luna.The reporters were uninterested in the story anymore. They asked Luna some simple questions before leaving in a hurry.Theo got someone to send Old Mr. Gordon back to the hotel.Although Irene did not really break her leg, she was still an injured patient, also, at that moment, she was utterly dejected. She knew that she could no longer survive in Banyan City anymore.A person like Irene was like Celeste. They were just tools to be used by Alice and Yvonne.Since the truth had been exposed, Irene no longer had any use and would be abandoned.Luna did not bother to make such a person stay. She got her staff to send Irene back to the hospital.Not long after, it was only Luna, Theo, and Theo’s assistant, who was holding onto Yvonne, left in the venue.“Luna, I have never seen this before. You have pretty great tactics too.“Yvonne clearly saw Luna only sitting in her office sketching every day, she did not look like she had a counter plan at all.Who would have thought that…Since the beginning of the press conference, she attacked one move after the other.Not only did she expose Irene for her lies, but she also exposed Yvonne to the public!“What? Only you guys get to secretly plot against me? I ‘m not allowed to secretly do things to protect myself?“Since Irene jumped off the building and announced that she was going to hold a press conference, Luna could already guess what they were going to do during the press conference.Thus, she got Nigel and Theo’s help to come up with a plan.It was also because she was busy coming up with a counter-attack, she completely forgot to defend herself against Jason. That was why she was almost attacked by Jason the night before.At the thought of Jason, she could not help but think of Joshua from the night before.Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 616Although he already threatened her that he would not care about her affairs anymore, even so, he should have paid attention to it right?A moment ago, she deliberately got Irene to point Yvonne out in the live broadcast.“Yvonne and Alice have such a good relationship with each other. Luna believed that if Joshua had seen the live broadcast that day, he should have an answer in his heart, right?““Ms. Luna, what should we do with this woman? “ Theo’s assistant, who had Yvonne apprehended, asked gently.Luna furrowed her brows and passed a USB stick to the assistant.“She is one of the people controlling the media company that had closed down a moment ago. The police are still looking for her. Send her to the police station. Perhaps, there might even be a bounty reward.“The assistant’s eyes instantly sparkled and quickly brought Yvonne along and left.Once they left, there was only Theo and Luna left in the huge venue.Theo changed into a more comfortable position and leaned back on the chair in the front row. He exhaled a long breath.“I guess this matter has been resolved successfully.Thanks to the mysterious person on the internet.“Luna was scrolling through the news while sitting down opposite Theo. “What mysterious person?“Theo paused for a while.“I haven’t told you about this yet. The only reason why I could so successfully nab the men of the Walter family in Banyan City and so quickly find Mr. Walter’s base in Sea City is all thanks to the help of a mysterious person.“He suddenly contacted me yesterday afternoon. He said that he knew I was targeting the Walter family. He also has a feud going on with them, so he was willing to help me get rid of their men.“Then, Theo could not help but lean back on the chair and said emotionally, “I asked him out for dinner tonight, to properly thank him. The righteous always will get help from others. Who would have thought that the Walter family would have rivals in Banyan City too.“Upon hearing Theo’s words, Luna furrowed her brows hard.Although the Walter family was arrogant, the reason they could do that in Sea City was because of the previous largest gang leader in Sea City, Liam Clark. He listens to the Walter family.However, Banyan City was not under Liam’s territory, so the Walter family’s power did not reach Banyan City.They do not even have any business there. How did they have any enemies?If Luna had to place it on someone, the only person in Banyan City who has a grudge with the Walter family would be…Only Joshua, right?At that thought, Luna raised her head and looked at Theo. “You said that you asked this mysterious person out for dinner?“Theo nodded. “Take me along.“Luna wanted to know, in Banyan City, other than Joshua, who would pay so much attention to the Walter family too.Blue Bay Villa.Alice smiled and placed a cup of hot tea on the coffee table. “Joshua, haven’t you been busy with work recently? Why did you come back at this hour?“Joshua sat on the sofa, his expressions were ice-cold. He looked at Alice frigidly. “Since when did Yvonne come to Banyan City?“Alice looked surprised.“Yvonne is here in Banyan City? Hasn’t she always been in Sea City recuperating?“Joshua sneered and played the video on his phone.The video was a replay of the press conference a moment ago. The scene was right when Luna tore off Yvonne’s mask and how panicked Yvonne looked.Alice’s eyes widened. Her eyes were filled with shock.”Why would Yvonne be here? Since when has she been in Banyan City, I don’t even know about this! ” Joshua leaned back and crossed his arms around his chest. He glared at Alice coldly. ”Are you sure you still want to continue pretending in front of me?”Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 617Alice’s body instantly stiffened.She bit her lips, turned around, and sat next to Joshua. She held his arm. “Joshua, what are you talking about? I don’t understand.““You don’t understand?“ Joshua smiled. He directly took out an old-looking handphone from his pocket and slammed it in front of Alice.“Now, do you understand?“Alice pursed her lips. She turned to have a look, her face was instantly pale.The handphone…Was the same one which she threw into the lake previously.However…Joshua saw her throwing the phone into the lake that day. She was worried that Joshua might overthink it and fished the phone up. That night, in the middle of the night, she got people to fish it up first.She clearly remembered that she had already gotten her men to fish the phone up. Later on, she melted the phone with acid before throwing it at a trash bin outside.How could that…Alice’s mind spun crazily quickly. She laughed. “Joshua, this phone is exactly the same as the one I threw the other day. Did you buy a new one for me, seeing that I threw the other one away?“Then, she buried her head in his arms and rubbed against him. “How thoughtful of you, Joshua.““Of course, I’m considerate.“ Joshua sneered, “I got Lucas to find the exact same phone, fished it out, and threw it back in the lake.“Upon Joshua’s words, Alice’s face has lost all of its colors.She felt her blood freeze.Joshua calmly pried her hands off him. He picked the phone and switched it on.“It took quite some time to fix this.“Then, the phone was switched on with a sound.The chat records on the phone were recovered. The one who contacted Irene with the number of an ‘Alice ‘. In the chat between them, she abetted Irene, and instructed her how to get to where the Walter family was…Each chat was tapped open by Joshua in front of Alice.The color on Alice’s face lost bit by bit with Joshua’s every tap.After a long while, when Joshua had finally shown all the chat records, Alice was almost completely slumped on the sofa.How could this have happened… Her plan was flawless… how…“Alice.“Joshua placed the phone down and looked at her coldly. “Do you think that your schemes and actions will go unnoticed?“Alice gripped the armrest of the sofa tightly. She said nothing.“I treated you as the person closest to me, yet you treat me like a fool.“Joshua narrowed his eyes. His voice was as frigid as his gaze.“We have been husband and wife for many years. You still understand me very well. You know the woman I hate the most is Hailey Walter.“Alice gripped the sofa with both hands so tightly her knuckles turned white.She bit her lips hard. Her heart hurt so much as if it were stabbed by someone with a knife.Joshua changed into a more comfortable position on the sofa and sneered.“Ever since the Walter family started moving about in Banyan City, Jude noticed it. Whether it was him or me, we all were willing to believe that it was Hailey who was behind all this. I even suspected a little whether Luna was Hailey herself. However, I never had thought that the main culprit behind this was you.“Joshua turned to and looked at Alice’s miserably pale face. “The only reason I was waiting for the Irene matter to end before looking for you is to give you a chance to turn a new leaf.”Joshua has even thought that if Alice were to stop Mr. Walter and his daughter from moving on with the plan before the press conference, he could even treat it as if nothing has happened.He would still continue to tolerate her and put up with her dirty tricks.After all, he owed her too much, leaving her out in exile for six years.Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 619Joshua furrowed his brows, looking at the face of the woman he once was obsessed with. He had mixed feelings.“Joshua! “ Alice grabbed the hem of his pants. She choked, “I’m not divorcing you. I don’t want a divorce! We have had a relationship for so many years. How could you bear to let it go just like that?“Joshua closed his eyes. “I have also considered this decision for a long time.“He had asked himself countless times. Was he still going to continue this?When the person that he loved the most has become someone he loathed the most. No matter how many chances you gave her, she was not willing to change. Should he still continue on that way?Should he continue on like what Luna said, constantly tolerating and indulging in her?“Joshua.“Alice was crying so badly she was gasping for air. “I only have you! You can’t treat me this way! You can’t treat me this way! You have treated me so badly before, but I did not mind it. I loved you with all my heart. Why are you not willing to give me another chance this time? Joshua…“She helplessly grabbed the hem of his pants. “Give me another chance. I’ll be good. Do whatever you like with Luna. I won’t interfere. If you want me toapologize to Luna, I’ll kneel and prostrate myself before her!“As long as you… you don’t divorce me and don’t chase me away…“Alice’s lowly attitude was stinging to Joshua’s eyes.Joshua closed his eyes and was silent for a very long time. In the end, he still could not help but sigh.“Alice, just sign the papers. This is only the divorce agreement. As long as I don’t proceed with the divorce procedures, you and I are still husband and wife. If you really can do as you said, to turn over a new leaf and not treat my female employees with such tactics… I can destroy the agreement.“Alice lifted her head. She looked at Joshua in a daze. “ Y-You’re not lying to me, are you?“Joshua looked at her face. The face that he once loved the most. In the end, he still could not bear to say words that were too cruel and harsh.“I’m not lying to you.“Alice looked at Joshua’s face closely. She could sense a hint of unwillingness in Joshua’s eyes.Alice understood clearly.Once she signed the divorce papers, in the future, if she did something that Joshua could no longer tolerate. There would be no room for redemption in their marriage anymore.However, if she were to not sign the papers, Joshua would only hate her more.At that thought, Alice bit her lips and picked up the pen on the coffee table. She pulled the divorce papers over and signed her name on them.Joshua was a little surprised at Alice’s swift movements.He was already prepared that she would not sign the divorce papers. After all, when she hysterically pleaded at him a moment ago made him feel that she was not willing to give up so easily.However, he did not expect that not only was she willing to let it go, but she also agreed to it so swiftly.Once Alice signed her name on the papers, Alice passed the divorce papers to Joshua.“Joshua, I really know that I did wrong. This matter is my fault too. I’m willing to go with you toapologize to Luna. I’m also willing to accept all your punishment. You’re right. With our relationship, even if I have signed the papers, you would not continue to proceed with the next steps, right?“Looking at Alice’s tear-stricken face. Joshua lifted his hand and accepted the divorce papers.“Alice.“He looked at her. “You should know that I brought up divorce because I ‘m very disappointed in you. If… you could change. I would not let you leave me so easily too.“Upon his words, Alice’s tears started to fall again. “Joshua…“She buried herself in Joshua’s arms with tears streaming down her face.”Believe me. I will change! ”Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 620Joshua sighed and looked at the woman being buried in his arms. He wanted to raise his hand and pat her back comfortingly. However, he raised his hand and it stopped in mid-air. He could not find a way to bring his hand down.In the end, Joshua could only sigh, “Alice, I have protected you for far too long. I really hope there is no next time.““There won’t be.“Alice buried herself in Joshua’s arms. In a place where he could not see her face, she narrowed her eyes fiercely.The only reason she agreed to sign the divorce papers was just to pacify Joshua for the time being.In a few days, when this matter had died down, she had to find a chance to secretly get the divorce paper back!Worse comes to worst, she would burn the place where Joshua kept the divorce paper down!By then, if the divorce paper went missing, Joshua would not be able to divorce her too.Theo and the mysterious person agreed to meet at the Bamboo Palace at 8 p.m.At 7:30 p.m., Luna and Theo were already there. Both of them had different views of Luna’s new design, so on the way there, they kept debating on this.In the private box of the restaurant, they were still debating about it. They lost track of time.At 8 p.m., the door of the private box was opened.When Jude appeared by the entrance, Luna and Theo were still in a heated discussion.Theo sighed helplessly, “Then you should rather just add a skull. It would make it seem more dispirited.“Luna pursed her lips. “You don’t understand. You can’t just simply use the skull element. At least, to me. The skull element represents evil and coldness. Also, something that still exists but should have long died.“Theo rolled his eyes. He wanted to say something else when he raised his head and noticed a man by the entrance.He immediately stood up. “A—Are you… the mysterious man that helped me previously?“Jude paused a little. He smiled. “That’s me.“ Luna also subconsciously lifted her head.When her eyes fell on Jude, she furrowed her brows and paused a little.She has seen this man before. He was Joshua’s best friend, Jude Smith.Back then, she used to hear other people say that the distribution of powers in Banyan City could be divided into two.One half belonged to Joshua, the other half belonged to Jude.Still, Jude and Joshua were good friends who knew each other when they were still students.Looking at Jude, Luna furrowed her brows. “You were the one… that helped Theo previously?“Jude nodded. “Of course.“Then, he entered the room and sat down opposite Theo and Luna.“If it was not me, then who? Joshua?“ Luna’s eyes slightly darkened a little.Before Jude arrived, she truly thought that Joshua was the one that helped Theo.Luna lifted her head and looked at Jude. “Mr. Smith, why did you help Theo?“According to what Theo said…He could quickly locate Mr. Walter’s men in Banyan City and found out where Mr. Walter was hiding was all thanks to Jude.Even, Jude was the one who helped get Old Mr.Gordon to come to check up on Irene’s leg.The man was powerful and influential, but Luna could not think of a reason for Jude to help Theo or her.“I’m not helping Theo.“Jude smiled. “I just want Joshua to owe me one.“ Then, Jude picked up the teacup and gently took a sip. “One of Joshua’s work plans for the second half of the year is to develop a Lynch Group jewelry branch.“You, Ms. Luna, is his only trump card in the jewelry industry. If I helped you, even if I didn’t bring it up, Joshua would understand that he owes me a huge one.”Then, Jude raised his eyebrows. “Are you satisfied with this answer, Ms. Luna?”
