Chapter 2877
“What do you mean?” Steven widened his eyes in shock at this.
His voice began to tremble as he tightened his grip on his phone. “What are you talking about, Denise? Did something bad happen?”
An expression of fear, one that rarely made an appearance, crossed Steven’s face as he repeated, “What happened, Denise?”
Denise began to chuckle, and the sound of her laughter felt eerily loud against the background.
“Steven, I’ll never get out of this alive.” There was a hint of despair in her scratchy voice. “Father and Mother left me here for dead. They handed me over to that pervert Mr. Hoffman, and he’s the sickest person I’ve ever met.”
Standing on the icy ledge, Denise lifted her head to glance at the man in the distance, who at this moment was screaming profanities and brandishing his whip at her. She let out a bitter smile. “I know you were trying to stall Father and Mother so that someone would be able to rescue me. I know you never once gave up on me, but…”
She continued in a choked voice, “I’m sorry, Steven, but I won’t be able to repay your kindness anymore. I’m sorry.”
She turned to gaze at the sprawling sky above her.
At this moment, she was standing on the ledge of a five-story building, and the cold, icy ground at the bottom seemed to be leering at her.
She knew that if she jumped off the building at this moment, she would not be able to survive.
“Denise!” Steven’s voice began to shake as he held his phone with both hands in desperation. “Please don’t do anything stupid! We can always talk this out!”
He bit his lip and tried to listen for any clues on the other end of the line. “That Mr. Hoffman is still with you, isn’t he? Don’t worry; put me on speaker, and I’ll speak to him myself!

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....
