Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 672

Luna was starting to feel anxious.

She exhaled and tried to dial both Theo and Nigel again, but none of them picked up their phones.

Finally, Luna had no choice but to call Malcolm instead.

“Hello?“ Malcolm’s voice rang out through the phone, sounding a little weary.

Luna frowned. “Malcolm, Nigel…“

“Nigel’s getting emergency surgery, “ Malcolm’s voice sounded exhausted. “Luna, I can’t do this anymore. Nigel…can’t do this anymore.“

Luna’s eyes widened when she heard this. “What… What do you mean?“

Malcolm let out a sigh. Every syllable he uttered after that felt like they were pounding against Luna’s chest, “Nigel’s condition has been worsening for the past two months. He told me not to let you know, and he also ordered the doctor to lie to you, saying he was getting better… Didn’t you notice he was contacting you less and less now?“

Luna almost dropped her phone.

Malcolm was right. Nigel did contact her less frequently than before, but he told her that he had learned a new type of hacking technology and was spending a lot of time trying to perfect it.

Besides, Nigel had always been a quiet child, so naturally, Luna did not overthink his progressive lack of communication, but…

“He wasn’t learning some new hacking technology. He didn’t contact you as often because he’s so sick that he can’t even talk normally anymore. This morning, he even vomited blood, and the doctors sent him into the operating theater immediately. It’s been almost eight hours now…

“The doctor said if he doesn’t undergo bone marrow transplant soon… He won’t even have a year to live.“ Malcolm closed his eyes and continued, “Nigel made me promise not to tell you any of this, but I don’t think I can do that anymore. Luna… Why don’t you give up on your plan and come back instead, to be by Nigel’s side? It’s been almost six months since you left, and if you haven’t gotten pregnant by now… “

“I have.“ Luna clenched her teeth and said in a choked voice, “Malcolm, I’m at the airport right now. I’ll be back very soon. Take good care of Nigel for me—I’ll be home soon. Neil and Nellie are on their way, too. We’ll be fine…“

She clutched her phone tightly and could no longer keep her tears at bay. “Malcolm, I’m pregnant. Nigel can be saved…“
