Chapter 2842
Thomas’ appearance made Steven furrow his brow in annoyance. He stared coldly back at Thomas and said, “I’ll never be able to fully understand the pain you’ve gone through, and I never once said that you should forgive Denise for her wrongdoings, but you’re a man, Thomas, so do you honestly think it’s appropriate for you to punish a woman this way?
“There are plenty of ways to get revenge on a woman who crossed you, so why do you have to choose such an undignified way and force her to sell her own body and soul? Not only that, but you even said you’d send some people to help her if she couldn’t accomplish her task by daylight. How the hell are you going to do that?”
Thomas narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. “I don’t think I have to explain anything more to you.”
“You-” Steven narrowed his eyes menacingly. “Do you think just because I’ve always been a mild- mannered person I wouldn’t dare to lay a finger on you?”
With that, he pulled his sleeves up and took a small step toward Thomas. “I admit that oftentimes, I’d choose to settle conflicts civilly over violence, and in some people’s opinions, I do this because I’m a coward, but things are different now.
“This time, I’m doing this to protect my family!”
He lunged in Thomas‘ direction and swung his fist right at Thomas‘ face!
Thomas never expected that Steven, the always mild–mannered and polite gentleman, would resort to violence. Thus, he did not manage to dodge his punch in time, and Steven’s fist struck his face hard. Steven’s punch packed so much that Thomas staggered backward, having to take two steps to steady himself. However, before he could even regain his composure, Steven raised his other fist.
He was so swift that Thomas did not even have the time to react. He watched as Steven’s fist sailed toward him, and, knowing that he would not be able to dodge this in time either, he closed his eyes in surfender.
To his surprise, the blow did not come.
Thomas opened his eyes slowly and came face–to–face with a veiny, muscular arm that belonged to none other than Joshua.
Joshua had stopped Steven’s punch just in time. However, judging from the sheer strength exerted by Joshua in defense, it was clear that Steven had put his entire body into this punch.
Thomas instinctively took a step backward, all of a sudden regretting provoking Steven this much.
He knew just how strong Joshua was; the fact that Joshua was struggling to hold Steven back demonstrated the sheer force and anger behind Steven’s advances.
He did not dare to imagine what would happen if Joshua had not shown up in time!

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....
