Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1379
Despite being several dozens of centimeters away from Joshua, Luna still felt as though he had shoved
her down an endless abyss.
To him, the first most important thing was defeating the Landry family.
What did she mean to him, then?
Luna bit down on her lip, gripping her menu so hard that her knuckles turned white.
“Luna.“ Malcolm let out a sigh and reached out to grab hold of Luna’s hand. Then, he encouraged her
in a low voice, “If you stand up and turn around right now, you’ll be able to see him. Do you want to…
ask him directly about what he means?“
Luna could feel the warmth of Malcolm’s hand spreading through hers. She bit her lip and suddenly felt
like crying.
She, too, wanted to ask Joshua what he meant by that, and most importantly, what she meant to him,
but..
She was afraid of hearing the answer.
After all, was his response over the past few days insufficient to prove his point?
“Luna, “ Malcolm piped up again after seeing Luna’s hesitation. “People should always go after what they
want, shouldn’t they?“
Malcolm’s words finally convinced Luna to pluck up her courage.
He was right.
After all, she had been through plenty of hardships and turmoil because of this man and done things that
no one could even comprehend! Why was she so afraid of asking him a direct question?
As soon as she thought of this, Luna let out an exhale and told herself to go for it.
If Joshua admitted to her that he indeed prioritized his revenge on the Landry family over her and that he
did not care about the Quinn family forcing her
into marriage…then she would give up!
With that, Luna put down her menu and turned around.
What she saw was Joshua’s retreating figure while he talked on the phone. She could hear his low voice
carried over by the wind. “Yes, Mr. Lennon, I haven’t ended my pursuit on the Landry family just yet.“
“Joshua Lynch! “ Luna bit down on her lip and was about to chase after him when suddenly, she tripped
over something and landed on the ground with a thud.
Luna froze for a moment and wanted to pick herself off the floor, but someone was stepping on her head
and preventing her from doing so.
In the distance, Joshua, who was descending the stairs, furrowed his brows and put down his phone.
He seemed to have heard Luna’s voice.
He turned around, but the only person he could see was Heather, who was still seated.
Seeing that he had turned around, Heather gave Joshua an elegant smile and waved at him. He even
saw her wink.
Joshua frowned in disgust and turned around without a second glance.
“Luna! “ After Joshua left, Malcolm finally managed to release the brakes of his wheelchair and wheeled
himself over to Luna’s side. “Ms. Landry! Don’t you think you’re behaving a little inappropriately?“
Heather, whose foot was still on Luna’s head, drew her foot back and replied, “Oh, is this woman a friend
of yours, Mr. Quinn? I thought she was just some random girl who wanted to get close to Joshua Lynch.“
After the weight on top of her head had been lifted, Luna finally picked herself off the floor and glared at
Heather. “You were the one who tripped me too, weren’t you?“
“Yes.“ Heather curled her lips into a faint smile and gave Luna a once -over. “Mr. Lynch has previously
promised me that if I could help him take care of the women who have been coming after him since he
arrived in Merchant City…
“Then he’d show mercy to our supply chains, one factory for one woman.
“So, Ms. Friend-of-Mr. Quinn’s, I hope you can understand that everything was just a misunderstanding
and that I was just looking out for the Landry family’s good.“
With that, she pulled out a card from her pocket and handed it to Luna. “If you think that you have
suffered injuries from what happened just now and want to head to the hospital…then this will suffice for
the medical bills.”
With that, Heather strode away, her heels click— clacking on the floor.
Luna rubbed the sore spot on her head and bit down on her lip. Just as she was about to prevent
Heather from leaving, Malcolm stopped her. “It’s no use, Luna.”
