Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua) novel Chapter 2229

Chapter 2229

“You got it all wrong!” Alas, Nikki’s attempts of convincing Jim could not sway him whatsoever, what more in the way she stuttered in her words.

Jim squinted. “Not going to fess up, are we?”

The force on his grip intensified, powerful enough that he lifted her off of the floor and strong enough to potentially snap Nikki’s neck if he continued! Nikki could only struggle.

“I’m telling you the truth. I-I didn’t lie to you! I…”

Nikki, at this point, could barely force out a sentence or two compared to seconds ago. In such a helpless state, she could only put up a pitiful fight.

A noisy clatter was heard when she accidentally knocked over the things on the table when she struggled. Jim’s eyebrows furrowed at the noise, but despite the intensity of his grip lessening, he did not let go of Nikki.

Both of them ended up in a stalemate.

At that moment, Jim’s assistant, Coleman, knocked on the door and entered, reporting his findings as he did.

“I’m here with the information you wanted to look into, Sir.

“I’ve discovered bits of information about when your mother was still alive. Your mother had a son with Mr. Wheeler, Sean Wheeler. She was pregnant for the second time, but Mr. Wheeler passed away during her pregnancy. Your mother had grieved severely, which resulted in her having a miscarriage.

“Along the line, she adopted a daughter from the orphanage and gave her a name, Nikki Wheeler. This woman…”

When he finally realized what was happening in the room, Coleman was stunned.

“Nikki Wheeler?” His gaze alternated from the documents at hand, to the woman caught in Jim’s grip.
