Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1348
“It’s all burnt down now… And Lily…“
Nellie sobbed so much at this point that she needed to catch her breath. “I can never taste Lily’s
homemade breakfast ever again…! “
Luna let out a sigh and pulled Nellie into a tight embrace but did not say a word.
Joshua gave Lucas some instructions to call a bus and send everyone to Orchard Manor. Meanwhile, he,
Zach, and Yuri stayed behind to deal with matters regarding the fire with the firefighters.
The fire went on for the entire night and was finally put out at sunrise.
This fire—which had lit up Banyan City for the whole night—became the topic of attention online.
However, with Joshua, Jude, and Bonnie’s influence, they concluded that this fire was due to human
error and curbed any panic from spreading within the city.
After the fire was put out, the firefighters found Lily and Aura’s dead bodies.
The two corpses were found together, holding onto each other.
The scissors which Aura had attempted to kill Luna with were still stuck within Lily’s flesh.
Aura had climbed onto the balcony, her hands wrapped tightly around the railing, but was stopped by
Lily. They died like this, with Lily clinging onto
Aura to prevent her from going after Luna.
The state of their bodies was grotesque and heart -wrenching.
Joshua and the rest of the crew mourned Lily’s death in silence for three minutes.
If it were not for this strong woman…Luna would have been the one dead instead.
Maybe, even after Luna died, Aura would still go on hurting other people.
It was this strong-willed woman who had sacrificed herself that prevented all these tragedies from
occurring.
“The house that had burned down belonged to Joshua Lynch, the wealthiest man in Banyan City?“
Inside a five-star hotel in Banyan City, Harvey was sucking on a lollipop as he turned to glance at the
man sitting next to him, who was staring at a photo of a group of girls with a dark expression. “Daddy,
isn’t this the man that Aunty Aura loved for many years?“
Without even lifting his head, the man replied, “Why are you asking me this if you already know the
answer? Didn’t you stir up trouble at their share- reallocation ceremony yesterday?“
Harvey removed the lollipop from his mouth. “I didn’t go there to cause any trouble! “ He lifted his head to
glare at the man. “I’m a detective; I went there to explain the crime-solving process to them! Don’t talk
nonsense like this without checking your facts, Daddy! “
Jim let out a scoff and glanced at his son coldly. “Let me ask you this: Were you the one who stole the
jade pendant that I left in the drawer?“
Harvey pouted slightly. “I took it away to see what kind of reaction you’d have… You’re always so uptight,
Daddy. It’s miserable.“
“So you took my most precious possession away to make me happy?“ Jim closed the folder he was
reading and continued in a frosty tone, “I shouldn’t have listened to you and taken you along with me to
find your mother.“
What had he been thinking?
That woman from six years ago…had probably already left Banyan City or even
died…
Finding her would be like trying to find a needle in a haystack. How was he even persuaded into doing
this?
“Well, it’s not all bad, Daddy.“ Harvey pointed at the burnt-down Blue Bay Villa on the television screen. “
We can visit the scene of the fire.“
Jim furrowed his brows, glanced at the photos of the fire, and rolled his eyes at Harvey.
No matter how unwilling, he still took Harvey to Blue Bay Villa after the crowd had dissipated so as to
fulfill Harvey’s desires of becoming a detective.
By the time they arrived, it was already evening.
As soon as they arrived at the scene, Harvey started finding clues like the detectives he had read in his
crime novels.
Jim had nothing to do, so he sat down in the destroyed backyard.
A gust of wind blew past him, bringing with it a half- burnt photography. He picked up the photo and
glanced at it.
A split second later, his entire body stiffened.
The woman in the photo…looked exactly like his mother!
