“Things are getting interesting now.“ Luke crossed his legs on top of each other and glanced at Joshua. “ You asked me to keep your divorce papers safe just for her, and now she’s pregnant with another man’s child. On top of that, she seems to be delighted by this baby. This is interesting.“
Joshua shot him a cold glance and said, “My decision to divorce Alice has nothing to do with Luna.“
Luke curled his lips into a smirk. “Do you even believe yourself when you say this?“
Joshua did not answer.
Seeing how Joshua still refused to believe that his divorce had everything to do with Luna, Luke sneered and said, “There’s no point lying to yourself anymore.“
All of a sudden, Joshua’s phone rang.
“You’re a little talkative today,“ he snapped as he glared at Luke before taking out his phone, eyeing the screen.
It was Alice.
Joshua furrowed his brows and cast Luke a murderous glare, signaling for him to shut up before he picked up the call. “What’s wrong?“
Alice’s sugary voice rang out from the other end of the line, “Joshua, it’s getting late now. What time are you coming home? Have you eaten? Are you working late tonight?“
Joshua might have felt a tingle of warmth in his heart when he heard Alice’s concerned tone back then, but at this moment…
He felt nothing but irritation.
He frowned slightly and asked, “Are you waiting for me?“
“Yes,“ Alice replied, smiling. “I made you some crème brûlée for dessert. If you’re going to come back in an hour, then l’11 wait for you, but if you can’t make it, l’ll keep it refrigerated and bring it out for you when you come back—“
“There’s no need, “ Joshua interrupted coldly. “I’m coming home now.“
