Chapter 1794
A moment later, Joshua let Luna go with a darkened expression. He said that he owed her only because he was angry at her previously for attending Mr. Hanson’s banquet on her own, then came up with the excuse that she has had sex to make a deal with him. He kept mentioning it because he wanted to remind her to not use her body as a bargaining chip. He never expected that Luna would use this to provoke him, right when he hugged her, when he could not hold back his feelings for her. Joshua looked at Luna’s face and smiled coldly. “So, you’re admitting that you’re using your body as a transaction?” Then, he sneered. “Since it’s a transaction, I’ll decide the time and place.” Joshua closed in on Luna’s ears, speaking with a low voice laced with mockery,” Tonight, at ten. Orchard Manor. I’ll see you there.” Luna paled at Joshua’s words in an instant. She only said what she said because she wanted to pull him out of his moody emotions, yet he truly thought that she was using her body as a transaction with him. He even set a time and date. Just when the atmosphere between them was so overwhelming and suffocating, Adrian returned running from outside, panting. He patted his chest while lowering his gaze and looking at the time. “Fifteen minutes, just in time. Joshua, I’m back.” Adrian’s voice wiped out the depressing atmosphere between Luna and Joshua. Luna turned around and wanted to leave, but Joshua pulled her back. “Don’t go. There are things to talk about.”
Then, Joshua fished a photo out from his pocket and showed it to Adrian, “Do you know this man?” The photo was of a bald, bearded man, and the gesture confused Adrian Why was Joshua asking him this? He hesitated for a very long time before shaking his head. “No.” Joshua smiled and took out another photo. The man in the photo was the same as the previous one, but without the beard and with hair. Adrian finally widened his eyes. “I’ve seen him before!” 20 years ago, the night of Colin’s accident, Adrian was driving home while he met face-to-face with the driver. At that time, Adrian was still curious why his truck reeked of blood. He did not know that the man was the perpetrator that killed Colin. It was only when he got home did he hear about how Colin met in an accident after the negotiation with Granny Lynch when he left the Lynchs’ place. Adrian even wanted to help the police, but the situation that night was too chaotic. H e could not remember the car number plate nor the specific facial features of the person, so he could only give up. However, at that moment, when Adrian saw the photo once again, his memories were instantly awoken.
“This was the man who killed Colin in the car crash!” When Luna heard Adrian mention Colin’s name, she instantly felt her blood freeze. She looked at Joshua in a daze before looking at Adrian. “What do you mean…?” Joshua passed the two photos to Luna. “This photo is what Todd looks like now, and the other was him twenty years ago. We’ve managed to find out that Todd was the one who killed Heather.” Joshua looked at Luna deeply. “It was he who killed Colin twenty years ago, too.” Luna bit her lip at this, and her hands that held the photo trembled a little. “So…” Joshua calmly interrupted her, “So as long as we find Todd, we’ll be able to know who ordered your uncle’s murder.”

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....
