Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua) novel Chapter 84

“I was hospitalized because I was too furious at you. Why have you not fired that maid?“

Joshua pulled a chair over and sat on it elegantly next to Granny Lynch. “How well is Aura treating you? Is it worth it, doing this for her?“
Granny Lynch was displeased at his words. “Joshua, what do you mean by that? Do you think I’m faking it? This is all because of you! “
Joshua waved his hands. “I’ll get the best doctors from overseas to check on you if you’re genuinely ill, but you’re not.“
Joshua turned to look at Aura who stood by the door. “Your eyes are puffy from crying. Do you think it’s worth it?“

Aura lowered her head and bit her lip. “I was worried about Granny…“
Joshua snickered and ignored her. He turned back to look at Granny Lynch. “You’re old. The most taboo thing to you is to mention being sick. Why are you here at the hospital even if you’re not sick? Are you not afraid of jinxing it?“
Granny Lynch turned pale.
“You can stop now; I know what condition your body is in. Have you forgotten that I get the doctors to check up on you weekly? The last check-up was three days ago. You have high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Do you think I’ll buy this?“
Granny Lynch’s face lost all of its colors. She pursed her lips. “This is all for your own good! If you were to listen to me and fire the maid, why would I put on this act at such an old age?“
Joshua sighed helplessly and looked at her. “Granny, I’ve told you many times that I won’t fire Luna.“
“Why?”
“I have my reasons. As for why, you have to wait until after your birthday. You’ll know about it then.“

Granny Lynch pursed her lips. “I think you’re bluffing…“
Aura stood still by the door as she eyed Joshua coaxing Granny Lynch. A feeling of disappointment and reluctance overwhelmed her.
Her plans failed once again. Granny Lynch was her final card.
Joshua even won over Granny Lynch. What else was she going to use to continue the fight?
Her eyes were filled with detest at the thought. She hated that stupid little girl Nellie, and Luna, that b*tch!
Right at that moment, she received a call. The moment she saw the caller, she inconspicuously narrowed her eyes.
She turned around and headed for the stairwell with her phone. When she made sure that no one was around, she picked the call up.
“Great, “ Aura sneered. “Are you sure that woman brought the little girl out of Blue Bay Villa? She returned to her rented house on the outskirts of town?“
Aura narrowed her eyes. “Since they’ve left Blue Bay Villa, make sure they never return! “
In the rented house on the outskirts of the city.
Luna was searching among the pile of sketches and finally found the sketch for the Stargazing.
She pulled it out with difficulty and placed the other sketches back in place.
Suddenly… “Mommy! “
Nellie sounded anxious from a distance. “I can’t open the door! “
Alarmed, Luna immediately grabbed the sketch and rushed out.
Nellie was so anxious her eyes reddened. “Mommy, I heard footsteps just now. I thought that somebody was there, so I went to have a look, but the doors were then locked! “
Her tears kept falling. “I tried many times, but I can’t open it!“
The door could not be opened. Luna’s mind was about to explode. Someone locked it from the outside.
What were they trying to do?
She immediately took her phone out. As expected, the phone signal was blocked, too.
