Chapter 2066
Joshua furrowed his brows as soon as he heard Jim’s voice.
He turned around, picked up the camera, and pointed it at Charlotte. “Are you still going to protect this woman after all that?”
“Jim!” A surge of energy rushed through Charlotte’s body as soon as she heard that familiar voice She quickly picked herself up from the ground and stormed toward the camera like a madwoman.
At this moment, her hair was loose around her head, and her face and body were covered in the blood that had spilled out of Roanne’s body. Her face was still twisted in a grotesque, sinister leer that made her look like a demon that had crawled right out of hell.
She snatched the camera out of Joshua’s hand and pointed it toward her face. “Jim! I knew you still loved me! You can’t bear to see me being sent away, can you? I knew it!”
Tears spilled down her cheeks, mixing with the blood on her face and making her look even more terrifying than before.
She hugged the camera close to her and said, “Jim, after being together for so long, you won’t leave me just because I’m not Number-9, will you?”
Jim furrowed his brows when he heard this.
He leaned against the back of his chair and said, frowning, “Charlotte, you misunderstood me.
He had not intended to tell Joshua to let her go, nor had he wanted to protect her.
“Joshua.” He closed his eyes, rubbed his brows in frustration , and said impassively, “I have my own plans when I told you not to take her away.
“Merchant City isn’t your territory, and apart from the Landry family, the Quinn family have their eyes on you as well.
“If you were to capture Charlotte and punish her yourself, the Quinn family would find a way to use this against you, and in the future, you’ll have a hard time dealing with them.”
Jim opened his eyes, turned off the computer screen, refusing to look at Charlotte any longer, and continued, “I suggest you bring her to a police station, where she’ll be sent to jail.
“It should be up to the criminal justice system to determine the appropriate punishment for her crimes, not you and I. What do you think?”
Truth be told, Jim had another intention of saying this.
From the conversation between Charlotte and Roanne, he had found out that the reason he nad lost his memories and was put under Charlotte’s control…was because she had drugged
him.
Since Charlotte was capable of drugging him, she might have the antidote with her.
Therefore, he wanted to find a chance to visit her in prison so that he could ask her more
about what happened.
He also wanted to find out the true identity of Number 9.
This was why he did not want Joshua to take her away just like that.
As long as Charlotte was in prison, he could visit her and question her anytime, but if she were to fall into Joshua’s hands..
He would have to go through Joshua every time he wanted to see her.

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....
