Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 38
“She did nothing wrong.“
“She caused trouble for her masters. That is the biggest mistake! “
“She did not cause me any trouble,“ Joshua said flatly and furrowed his brow.
Granny Lynch angrily stomped her walking stick. “ She caused Aura trouble! Aura is the future mistress
of the Blue Bay Villa, also her master! “
Joshua calmly turned to look at Aura with cold eyes, “
Do you think so too?“ Aura’s face turned slightly pale at his words.
She pursed her lips and pretended to be aggrieved. She took a step back and lowered her head. “I’ve
explained to Granny a lot of times, those are just speculations from the people online. We don’t have to
do anything just because they speculate…“
“Speculations?“ Granny Lynch glared angrily at Aura. “What? So I have to wait until the maid gets what
she wants, wait until something happened with her and Joshua, then only you want to get rid of her?
What happens if she gets pregnant then?“
Then, Granny Lynch glared at Joshua coldly. “I ‘m going to ask you once more. Are you going to fire
this maid or not?“
“No.“
“Heh. “ Granny Lynch looked at Joshua frigidly. “I’m not being unreasonable. Give me a reason why
you want her to stay. If there is a need for her to stay, I won’t stop you. If not, then, you must have been
charmed and blinded by her! “
Joshua furrowed his brows. ”I have my reason for wanting her to stay. I just can’t tell you now.”
He needed a suitable time for Nellie to be recognized in the family. To return to the family in a
respectable manner , not like how she returned to him without any news.
Also, he wanted Nellie’s appearance to be a surprise for his family. Joshua decided to let Nellie make
her appearance on Granny Lynch’s birthday a few days later, to give everyone a surprise, also to give
Nellie a proper welcome as his daughter. However, he could not tell Granny Lynch about Nellie at that
moment. Granny Lynch was not one to keep secrets. If she knew about it, the entire family would have
caught wind of it too. It would be even more troublesome then. ”Saying you have a reason but not
stating them is the same as not having a reason! “ Granny Lynch violently stomped her walking stick. ” I
don’ t care what the hell you are up to , but let me tell you. You either get rid of that woman or you
immediately decide on a marriage date with Aura! Aura has been your fiancée for five years, you owe
her after the scandal with the maid! ” Joshua calmly raised his eyes and looked at Granny Lynch. His
tone was ice- cold. ”I won’t get rid of the maid. I also won’t decide on a marriage date with Aura. If you
force me, I don’t mind calling off the engagement right now.“ Upon his words, the entire office was
suddenly in silence. Granny Lynch glared at Joshua with widened eyes, in shock. “How dare you! “
“There is nothing I do not dare to do.“
“Fine, fine! You won’t even listen to me anymore! “ Granny Lynch’s face lost all of its colors. “I’m
warning you. You either get rid of the maid or you get married to Aura! If not, don’t ever come to see
me. I don’t need you attending my birthday banquet either! “
Then, Granny Lynch angrily left with the help of the butler.
“Joshua.“ After Granny Lynch left, Aura walked over, looking helpless. She carefully tugged at Joshua’s
sleeve. “I have really tried to talk to Granny, but she did not listen to me.“
“Is that so?“
Joshua smiled a little. His eyes were cold. “She’s an eighty-year-old woman. She doesn’t even know
how to go online. How come I only went to the mall with Luna in the morning and she already heard
about the news online by the afternoon?“
His words made Aura turn pale.
She pursed her lips. “Joshua, are you suspecting me “I only think that it’s too much of a coincidence.“
Joshua sat down aloofly and glared at Aura coldly. “I initially wanted to wait until Granny Lynch’s
birthday banquet to announce the calling off of the engagement, to make it more formal. There would
be more people at the banquet. We won’t need to explain too much, but…“
Joshua sneered. “It looks like I won’t be able to wait until that day. Why don’t I announce the calling off
of the engagement today?“
Aura panicked. She bit her lips and pretended to be calm, but she was trembling terribly inside.
“Joshua, now is not the time. The photos of you shopping with the maid just came out this morning, yet
you announce breaking off the engagement with me in the afternoon. People will think that you had
something going on with her. People will think that you called off the engagement because of her.“
Joshua found it comical. “What does that have to do with me?“
“How about my sister?“
Due to desperation, Aura could only mention Luna Gibson. “Don’t you care what Luna thinks?“
Joshua hesitated a little.
Seeing his reaction, Aura let out a sigh of relief. She said with a softer tone, “Joshua, you should know
that it was Luna who left instructions in the will asking you to marry me and take care of me. Now that
Nellie has appeared, that means that my sister is not dead.
“If she could let Nellie come back to you, she must be watching you from somewhere. If you call off the
engagement with me now, from the outside, people would think that it’s because of the maid. If Luna
knew that you called off the engagement with me because of a maid, would she come back to look for
you?”
Her words made Joshua silent. He shut his eyes and Luna Gibson’s innocent eyes appeared in front of
him.
Indeed. He could care less about anyone misunderstanding him, but he could not do that to Luna
Gibson.
She was the only person in this world that he was sorry for. He wanted to protect and cherish her.
“So, Joshua.” Aura carefully poured tea for Joshua. “ Don’t worry. I won’t object to the calling off of the
engagement but now is not the time. What do you say?”
