“You were the one who wanted to get in my bed and become my woman, yet you refuse to get intimate with me. You drugged me, and you even refused to drink what I drank, “ spoke Joshua as he eyed Luna coldly. “Luna, what on earth are you trying to do?“
His gaze was so overpowering that Luna did not dare look at him. She gently coughed and remained silent with her head lowered.
“According to your previous plans, it’s only right that you drug me, but it shouldn’t be laxative.“ The man’s voice was magnetic and pleasing to the ears.
Luna felt her chest tightened. She bit her lip. “I…“
Joshua shut his eyes and flatly concluded, “Your goal isn’t me, “
“Tell me then, what do you want?“ His voice was soft.
Was she trying to pretend to be Luna Gibson? Perhaps she just liked Nellie? These two reasons were not convincing enough on why Luna wanted to stay by his side.
There must be some other reason.
Luna bit her lip. As usual, this man was so sensible that it was terrifying. She did not dare lift her head, and neither did she dare speak. She was afraid that once she opened her mouth, he would be able to guess her identity and her intentions.
The air in the ward was cold and dreary. Joshua looked at Luna while her head remained downcast. They maintained like this for a very long time until Lucas barged in with a bottle labeled as kids’ vitamins.
“Sir, there is only this bottle by her nightstand! “ reported Lucas as he looked at Luna reproachfully.
“How sinister! She filled a bottle of kids’ vitamins with laxatives! What if the little princess saw this and mistook it for vitamins? The consequences would be— “ Before Lucas could finish his sentence, what happened next baffled him.
Joshua opened the bottle of vitamins, poured two tablets out, and chewed on them.
Lucas was so stunned that his jaw dropped to the floor!
“Sir… “ He did not know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at Joshua. “Sir, you’ve just been rescued, but why did you…“
Joshua ignored Lucas. He poured another two tablets out and popped them in his mouth. “Orange- flavored.“
Lucas was speechless. Laxatives were so advanced these days. They even could come up with fruit- flavored ones!
Suddenly, Lucas felt that something was not right. If this was truly the laxatives that Luna used, how could Joshua not notice it when she added them into his tea and coffee?
At that thought, Lucas furrowed his brows and turned to look at Luna. “These aren’t laxatives.
Where did you hide them?“ “I think she only has this.“
Joshua gently closed the bottle of vitamins and handed them back to Lucas. “Keep it properly. For Nellie.“
Lucas held on to the bottle in confusion. “Sir, did she hide the laxatives somewhere else?“
Joshua looked at Luna with his deep eyes. “Since she has already admitted that she drugged me, why would she hide the location of the laxatives?“
Lucas was speechless.
“Luna. “ Joshua leaned rather feebly by the head of the bed. Although he was still pale in his face, that stern-looking face was still authoritative.
“The only explanation is you knew who drugged me, but you’re protecting him.“
“I’m not. “ Luna lifted her head and looked at Joshua fearlessly. “I only had one pill with me. I gave them all to you, so I had no more left.“
She could not let Joshua know about her relationship with Neil. She wanted to return and head back to Joshua’s side alone, but with Nellie around, everything could easily tip over. If Joshua knew about her relationship with Neil…
Neil would be exposed to Joshua! That way, her identity would be exposed sooner or later!
“Do you think I’d buy that?“ Joshua looked at Luna flatly. His lips quivered coldly. “What relationship do you have with that little boy?“

The readers' comments on the novel: Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua)
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....
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....
