Chapter 2010
“No.”
As soon as Jim’s words escaped his mouth, Bonnie interjected without even a single hint of hesitation.
She handed Jim over to Mickey and added in a voice so cold that there was barely any warmth in it, “How can he and I possibly get back together? Mr. Jim is still waiting to marry his precious Charlotte.”
With that, she turned and left.
Jim remained motionless, deep in his thoughts as he watched her leave.
When Bonnie disappeared from his view, he turned to glance at Mickey. “She and I…”
“You two were together in the past, and you were very close too,” Mickey replied in his deep voice as he lowered his head. “If Ms. Charlotte hadn’t come back to Merchant City, the person you would’ve been marrying would be Ms. Bonnie by now.”
Jim furrowed his brows when he heard this. He glanced coldly at Mickey and asked, “Does this – mean that I was the one who had wronged her?”
Even though he could feel the displeasure in Jim’s gaze, Mickey still nodded in defiance. “Well, according to what happened, that was indeed the case. You…”
He let out a sigh but decided to keep the truth about Jim being poisoned by Charlotte to himself.
He had been with the Landry family for more than 20 years, and he knew exactly what kind of temper Jim had. If he attempted to convince Jim otherwise of something he believed, it would serve them no good apart from angering him.
“What did I do?” Jim asked, frowning when he saw Mickey hesitating.
“Nothing.” Mickey let out a bitter chuckle and continued carrying Jim back to the mansion. “I just thought you’d never believe Ms. Bonnie.”
Jim glanced at him through narrowed eyes.
For some reason, he felt that Mickey was hiding something from him.

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....
