“Lily mentioned that you’ve been waiting for over an hour now?“ Joshua took off his jacket and handed it over to a servant. He lowered himself onto the couch and planted his arm gracefully on the leather armrest. “You wanted to talk to me?“
“I do, “ Adrian replied. He glanced at Luna and smiled. “It’s okay, we’ll talk next time.“
“I probably won’t even be interested in hearing about it next time, “ said Joshua as he crossed one slender leg over the other. “Tell me now.“
Joshua had never really been fond of his father, much less had a close relationship with him. The way he talked to his father at that moment felt no different from talking to a subordinate.
Adrian never expected that Joshua would behave like that; he did not even bother to show any respect toward him. Adrian remained silent for a moment before giving a wry smile. “Alright, I’ll just come right out and say it.“
He glanced at Luna and cleared his throat. “It’s about Ms. Luna. I’m sure you know that I’m a jewelry designer, and Nellie has displayed great talent in jewelry designing as well. However, I’ll be leaving in a few days to take care of some stuff, and I don’t want Nellie’s talent to go to waste. I didn’t think anyone in Banyan City would be qualified to teach her, except…“
Adrian pointed at Luna. “Except for Ms. Luna, “ He continued, ”At the beginning, I , like everyone else , thought that Ms. Luna was just an ordinary maid.
However, when I discovered her real profession and capabilities, I was shocked and ashamed that I hadn’t managed to see her for what she truly is: a genius.”
Adrian fixated his stare on Luna. ”Ms. Luna’s gift and aptitude in jewelry design are just what Nellie needs. She’d be the perfect teacher for Nellie.”
Joshua chuckled upon hearing his father’s words. He raised an eyebrow and swept his gaze over Luna’s face. ”You expect me to believe that my father isn’t in on this with you?”
Joshua had not spoken more than a few sentences with Adrian ever since the latter returned to the Lynch family, yet just a mere few days before his leaving , Adrian suddenly brought up the prospect of Luna becoming Nellie’s teacher. Joshua could not help but feel that his suspicions were correct: Adrian was part of Luna’s scheme, and he was trying to find an excuse to let Luna remain close to Joshua.

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....
