Neil rolled his eyes and guessed that Joshua asked him this question because of Nellie.
Did this scumbag want to make it up to Nellie?
The little guy frowned and thought of what Nellie had said to him.
“Neil, if you return to Daddy, what do you want Daddy to do for you? I hope that Daddy will be like Mommy and cook me delicious food. Like Mommy comb my hair, pick out my clothes, and also tell me a bedtime story like Mommy! “
Neil hesitated for a while and removed the girly ‘hair-combing’ as he answered, “I hope my father can cook for me, pick out my clothes for me, and tell me bedtime stories.”
Joshua raised his eyebrows. “Do you still need someone to tell you a bedtime story?”
This little boy was mature enough to tell other children a bedtime story.
“Of course I want to listen to bedtime stories! ” Neil was upset. “I’m still a child! You can’t ignore the fact that I ‘m only six years old just because I ‘m smart, resourceful, cute, and handsome! “
Joshua had no comment on that.
“Okay.”
The man wrote down Neil’s requests in his mobile phone and asked Lucas to pay their bill.
Glancing at the already pitch-dark sky, Joshua stood up. “It’s getting late. Should I send you home?”
Neil glanced at Zach who was lying on the table and then at Yuri who stood in the distance, afraid to come over. “Okay.“
Joshua led him into the car. “You saved my daughter, and I should thank you. What would you like as a token of my gratitude?”
” It’s fine.” Neil waved his hand. ” It’s enough that you provide work for my two brothers here.”
With that, he looked out the car window. “I do hope you’ll thoroughly investigate this matter and teach the people behind it a lesson. Fulfill your responsibilities as a father and take good care of your daughter.”
The little boy’s words silenced Joshua for a long time. He never expected that he would be rendered speechless by a six-year-old boy one day.
It did not take long for the car to reach the address Neil gave him.
As the car rolled to a stop, the little boy got out of the car, said goodbye to Joshua, and entered the apartment complex.
Once the car was out of sight, he wriggled out of the building, walked to the housing area opposite, took out his key, and opened the door.
In the master bedroom, Anne was already asleep. Neil quietly crept into his bedroom.
“Nigel, “ he phoned Nigel as he laid on his bed. “I found out that the scumbag isn’t as bad as I thought.
On the other side of the phone, Nigel laid in his hospital bed as he held a mobile phone in one hand and the IV catheter in his other hand, busily pumping blood into his veins. “If he had no good qualities at all, Mommy wouldn’t like him that much.
Neil nodded. “You’re right.
“Even if he has some good qualities, though, he’s still a scumbag! He’s nothing compared to our godfather! “
Late at night.
Blue Bay Villa fell into silence.
After putting Nellie to sleep, Luna walked out of her daughter’s room with light feet.
Although the little girl was always calm and composed, she was so frightened after what happened that she could not sleep at night.
Luna put in a lot of effort but failed to make her fall asleep.
In the end, she could only promise Nellie that when she woke up tomorrow morning, she would show her the album that had her old photos. Only then did the little girl finally fall asleep, the promise of tomorrow filling her mind.
The album that Luna promised to show Nellie was the one she left in the attic when she married Joshua.
She did not know if it remained there.
The woman took a deep breath and made sure that everyone in the villa was asleep before she tiptoed to the door of the study, turned on the light, and climbed up to the attic.
The attic was full of dust, and it looked like it had not been cleaned for many years.
Luna switched on her flashlight and flipped through the dust for a long time before she found the photo album at last.
Dusting off the cover, she opened the album gently.
The photo album was of Luna’s youthful and innocent appearance when she was 16.
She raised her hand and gently stroked the face of the woman in the photo album as emotions welled in her chest.
She had not met Joshua yet when she took the photos in this photo album, and she did not know that there was a man that could not be warmed in this world, no matter how hard she fanned and showered him with her love.
She sat on the floor as gazed at herself in the album. Without realizing it, her mind drifted…until the door of the study room suddenly opened!

The readers' comments on the novel: Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua)
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....
This just keeps getting worse, is Fiona another Hailey/Aura. Not sick just playing a game to get Joshua. Disappointing, disgusting and despicable. Luna needs to win , Joshua needs to grow a backbone and see through these horrible women. Why should Luna always be the one who is bullied, destroyed, disrespected and dismissed. Terrible. Those kids need both Luna and Joshua....
OMG no!!!! Someone needs to explain clearly to Luna so the bitterness in her heart subsides and she can truly be civil to Joshua so they can get together as a family. Fiona is unreasonable in her request for a superficial relationship, why can’t one character see the hurt that has been caused Luna and be on her side. Not a fan of Fiona and a superficial relationship even if it cures Nigel....
Totally distract over the fact that the author is spinning Luna as the evil Alice/Hailey. Hope this story line doesn’t last long and we can see a loving family Joshua,Luna and kids soon....
She is not his ex wife, they were never divorced and she didn’t die at the hands of Aura or Alice. Alice aka Hailey is an imposter, not his wife!...
