Nellie did not expect her father would agree so easily, she remained in a daze for a while before coming to, walking into his room with her short little legs.
The little girl sat on the small platform before his bay window, glancing at Luna who was still dead drunk on the bed, her worry and concern evident in her eyes. “Daddy, why is Aunty in your room?“
Joshua’s eyes darkened. “She’s drunk.“
“Oh. “ Nellie pursed her lips. “Aunty must be so sad tonight.“
He lifted his glass and filled it to the brim. “Would she be?“
“Of course.“ Sitting on the platform, her short legs swung to and fro in the air. “Aunty said she thinks Aunt Aura isn’t nice to me, she wants to sort out the problem about Aunt Aura before she leaves, otherwise, she would be worried.“
With that, the little girl glanced at her father, her expression fully expressing her grievance. “But what about you, Daddy? You let the evil Aunt Aura go just like that. Aunty is worried about me, plus, she feels you do not care about me, of course, she would be sad! “
His hand that was holding the wine glass shuddered slightly.
Was… was that true?
He turned and glanced at Luna silently, then emptied the wineglass with one swift gulp. “Nellie, do you want to listen to my explanation?“
The little girl paused, then nodded. “Go ahead, I ‘m listening.“
Whatever he said, whatever explanation he provided, it would not change the fact that he did not care about her, and did not care about Mommy!
“I know, my decision tonight made both of you extremely unhappy, but…“
He raised his head expressionlessly. “I’m waiting for someone to come back, and deal with this matter herself.“
Nellie scrunched her brows. “Who?“
“Your Mommy.“
The little girl’s eyes opened wide in surprise.

The readers' comments on the novel: Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua)
Luna is sooo stupid!...
This story line is sickening… her children, Nellie in particular, do not like Malcolm. She is already married to Joshua, the father of her children who loves her more than Malcolm ever could. Just disgusting....
Another “misunderstanding”…… poor Luna, why can’t she just say the Quinns kidnapped me instead of assuming Joshua is doing the wrong thing. Terrible....
I sure hope Aura gets arrested and pays for her many crimes soon, along with Adrian and Michael. Joshua and Luna need peace with their children....
Joshua is stupid, he says he loves Luna but refuses to tell her the truth thinking he can never recover from all the deceit, if he told the truth he could redeem himself and live a happy life with his family rather than continue to protect a bunch of evil criminals. Terrible decisions by a man who is smart enough to run a multi faceted company....
Omg this author is twisted!! When does Luna catch a break! This is awful. Aurasnd Fiona are evil, evil women and are using the children to commit their crimes 🤬...
And now the author has made it sound like he cares more for Fiona who he has only known a couple of weeks than Luna, his wife, the love of his life. Stupid and pathetically disgusting....
Wow, making Joshua out to be so stupid, ugh. Yes he told this horrible bitch he would accompany her until she died, but she lied about her fake illness so I guess he’ll have to live with her forever! He also promised to love, honor and cherish his wife Luna however seems to forget that with each passing malicious mistress, Aura, Alice and now Fiona. Awful. Let’s get past this into some storyline that involves some happiness for Luna… the only woman who truly cares for and loves him. Get rid of Fiona, soon....
So disgusted with this Fiona storyline, hope it doesn’t last much longer. Joshua told her when they made the deal he had someone in his heart and would not sleep with her. They could be faking a relationship and he doesn’t have to be so nasty to Luna and the kids. It’s heartbreaking and giving him another ridiculous relationship is unnecessary. Just makes more misunderstandings for Luna and harder for her to forgive him....
Joshua is in the wrong, even if Fiona asked him to keep their fake relationship a secret he should have told Luna what was going on. After all, supposedly he lives Luna and the children and is doing this for them. Being deceiving is not working for him....
