Joshua stared back at Luna in silence.
After a while, he shot her a glance and answered impassively, “I have my plans.“
“Mr. Lynch.“ Luna let out a deep breath. “I know that you’re probably showing Ms. Gibson mercy because you have a close relationship with her.
You’ve known her for a long time, and it’s understandable you’re finding it difficult to punish her for what she’s done. However, she did do something wrong, and she deserves to pay the price for it. If you can’t bear to do anything to her, you can pass all the evidence to the police, and they can take care of it.“
Luna’s gaze never wavered from Joshua as she tried to suppress the rage in her heart, continuing slowly, “ Attempted murder isn’t a death sentence. If she gets convicted, she only has to spend a few years in prison. Perhaps by the time she gets released, Nellie would’ve already grown up and can protect herself. She won’t face the same threat that she’s facing now anymore.“
Luna heaved a sigh and frowned at Joshua. “Why are you so unwilling to do so?“
Joshua’s brow furrowed more and more as he listened to Luna. His movements also became rougher as he continued applying the ointment onto her. Luna was in pain due to his aggressive motions, but she still managed to finish her sentence. “Why are you showing Aura so much mercy, even though
she doesn’t deserve it? Is it because she’s far more important to you than your daughter?“
Clang!
Joshua immediately let go of Aura’s hand and flung the bottle of ointment back into the first aid kit. The aluminum container crashed against the edge of the kit and produced a harsh noise.
“I guess you’re not in pain anymore,“ scoffed Joshua as he shot her a glare and got up from his seat.
Only half of Luna’s wound was smeared with ointment; the rest of the burnt skin was still exposed. Lily, who had been observing from a distance, immediately approached Luna cautiously. She wanted to make up for her mistake by treating the rest of Luna’s injury.
“There’s no need, “ said Joshua as he glanced at Lily. “Put the first aid kit back where it belongs.“
Lily shot Luna a troubled look. Luna immediately shook her head at Lily, picked up the roll of bandage, and proceeded to wrap her wound again.
Joshua grew even more enraged at the sight of Luna’s unfazed expression. “Butler, please send Ms. Luna and Neil off!“ As soon as he barked his order, Joshua immediately disappeared upstairs.

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....
