Joshua narrowed his eyes. “Is this how you treat someone who saved your life?“
Luna forced a smile and continued to feed him. “If something similar happens again in the future, I hope Mr. Lynch won’t do this again. Firstly, I’m just an ordinary employee, and I don’t need the CEO to protect me. Number two, even if I got hurt, you can just give me a few days’ leave or even monetary compensation. I don’t need anyone to rescue me.“
Luna shot Alice a glare. “I ‘d rather get hurt than be misjudged for something that wasn’t even my intention.“
Alice’s face was ashen at Luna’s words. She frowned and was about to say something in defense when Joshua cast her a meaningful look that stopped her right in her tracks.
“I’d still save you if this happens again in the future.“ Joshua turned around and smiled at Luna. “ Alice was right. A boss should always protect his employees, especially since you’re one of our star workers.“ He observed Luna’s expression for a while before he added, “Although I do wish my employees could show a little gratitude toward their boss. One way of doing that would be adopting a better attitude when feeding me.“
Luna stiffened at his suggestion. After a moment, she heaved a deep sigh and brought the fork up to Joshua’s mouth a little gentler.
Luna knew Joshua was right. Their relationship was that of a boss and his star employee. She should have displayed more gratitude towards him instead of behaving in such a way.
They soon finished their meal and quickly made their way to the next destination of their field trip. The on-site investigations that happened thereafter went by much quicker than in the morning. They did not have much to do apart from obtaining information about the latest jewelry design concepts and fashion trends.
Although there was no longer any risk of getting hurt, Luna received a different kind of shock that afternoon. She was perplexed and somewhat mortified by Alice’s actions throughout the whole day.
Alice had touched one of the samples on display out of curiosity and flipped through the other company’s design sketches. To make things worse, she even scribbled a few doodles on the notice board that

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....
