Luna was starting to feel anxious.
She exhaled and tried to dial both Theo and Nigel again, but none of them picked up their phones.
Finally, Luna had no choice but to call Malcolm instead.
“Hello?“ Malcolm’s voice rang out through the phone, sounding a little weary.
“Nigel’s getting emergency surgery, “ Malcolm’s voice sounded exhausted. “Luna, I can’t do this anymore. Nigel…can’t do this anymore.“
Luna’s eyes widened when she heard this. “What… What do you mean?“
Malcolm let out a sigh. Every syllable he uttered after that felt like they were pounding against Luna’s chest, “Nigel’s condition has been worsening for the past two months. He told me not to let you know, and he also ordered the doctor to lie to you, saying he was getting better… Didn’t you notice he was contacting you less and less now?“
Luna almost dropped her phone.
Malcolm was right. Nigel did contact her less frequently than before, but he told her that he had learned a new type of hacking technology and was spending a lot of time trying to perfect it.
Besides, Nigel had always been a quiet child, so naturally, Luna did not overthink his progressive lack of communication, but…
“He wasn’t learning some new hacking technology. He didn’t contact you as often because he’s so sick that he can’t even talk normally anymore. This morning, he even vomited blood, and the doctors sent him into the operating theater immediately. It’s been almost eight hours now…
“The doctor said if he doesn’t undergo bone marrow transplant soon… He won’t even have a year to live.“ Malcolm closed his eyes and continued, “Nigel made me promise not to tell you any of this, but I don’t think I can do that anymore. Luna… Why don’t you give up on your plan and come back instead, to be by Nigel’s side? It’s been almost six months since you left, and if you haven’t gotten pregnant by now… “
“I have.“ Luna clenched her teeth and said in a choked voice, “Malcolm, I’m at the airport right now. I’ll be back very soon. Take good care of Nigel for me—I’ll be home soon. Neil and Nellie are on their way, too. We’ll be fine…“
She clutched her phone tightly and could no longer keep her tears at bay. “Malcolm, I’m pregnant. Nigel can be saved…“

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....
