Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua) novel Chapter 2519

Just as Malcolm contemplated the options he had, Lucas and his men dug out a small chest from beneath the tree.

Jim immediately lunged forward to open the chest.

There was a small box engraved with the letter M, in a plastic wrapper inside the chest.

Jim opened the box, frowning, and discovered a small pill wrapped in aluminum foil.

“She had given me only one of these pills, but…I told her I had lost it so that she‘d give me another one,” Malcolm explained timidly. “Initially, I had planned to use this to escape…” He lifted his head to stare at Joshua. “You mean what you said, right, Mr. Lynch? You told me that as long as I handed over the pill…you‘d let me go.” “He promised that he‘d let you go, but I never did.” Jim tucked the box into his pocket, stomped back toward Malcolm, and landed another punch on his already swollen face.

“That‘s enough.” Joshua furrowed his brow, reached out to stop Jim, and said impassively, “We have to stick to our word.” He shot Malcolm a contemptuous glance. “Else, how are we different from people like him?”

Malcolm nodded fervently. “That‘s right, that‘s right. Mr. Landry, you have to stay calm… If you don‘t stick to your word, you won‘t be any different from people like me!”

Maleolm had lost all trace of the pride and entitlement he used to have as heir to the Quinn family fortune. The only thing on his mind was how to decrease the torment inflicted on him as much as possible.

In the past, Jim could understCg4%{_G| that Joshua was doing this for Samuel‘s sake.
