Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua) novel Chapter 88

Only in Luna’s dreams could she see such tender, concerned Joshua.

She had loved him for so many years, yet never had he once reciprocated her love.
In the dream, however, she could clearly feel Joshua’s concern and love.
“You’ll be fine.“
While semi-conscious, she heard a low man’s voice constantly repeating this to her.

Luna smiled bitterly. How great would it be if she could keep dreaming and never wake up from it…
When Luna woke up, it was already the next morning. Before she could open her eyes, her nose was filled with the smell of disinfectant.
She furrowed her brows and opened her eyes with difficulty, forcing herself to wake up.
She was in the hospital. To put it more accurately, she was in the intensive care unit.
Another person was in the room with her—a man. He had an oxygen mask on as he laid quietly on a bed next to hers.
His deep, endless eyes were closed at that moment, showing off his sharp eyebrows and long lashes.
The morning sun shone through the window, which softened some of the cold hard lines on his face.
Joshua…

“You’re up, Miss.“ The nurse who just entered looked at her in delight. “Don’t move! I’ll go get the doctor.“
“Hold on.“ Luna furrowed her brows and pointed to Joshua. “What happened to him?“
“Your husband had a confrontation with people outside the fire yesterday. His abdomen was stabbed, but he still rushed into the fire and rescued you. He carried you all the way to the hospital.
“He’s lost quite a lot of blood. His wound has been infected, and he’s been gas-poisoned. He’s still unconscious.“
The nurse sighed. “You’re up, but he’s in a much dire situation than you. We won’t even know when he’ll be awake.“
The nurse’s words made Luna tense a little.
How could this have happened? Luna turned and looked at the man lying on the bed. Why did he want to rush in to rescue her?
Six years ago, when she was his wife, he ruthlessly killed her because she got in the way between him and Aura.
Six years later, she was his maid. Aura sought revenge on her, yet he selflessly rushed into the fire to rescue her.
Was she too important to him, or was she just not important to him six years ago?
Luna shut her eyes. It felt like countless knives stabbed her heart.
The more he treated her nicely, the more he was proving to her that Luna six years ago was a pathetic failure.
Luna did not know what kind of attitude or feelings she should have toward him.
Soon after, the doctor arrived.
After a basic check—up, the doctor made sure she was okay and moved her to a new ward.
When she was pushed by the nurse out of the intensive care unit, Luna subconsciously looked at Joshua in his oxygen mask.
She did not know why, but when she looked at him, she said, “If you still don’t get up, you won’t be able to see Luna Gibson for the rest of your life.“
Then, the nurse brought her out.
Lying on the bed, Luna looked at the ceiling lights on the corridor and smiled bitterly.
What a joke. He never liked Luna Gibson, and not once had he cared for her either.
How would such a statement affect him? To him, Luna Gibson was no one.
The nurse pushed Luna into the elevator. Before the elevator door was shut, another nurse quickly rushed over to stop them.
“Mr. Lynch is awake. He said he wanted to see the person that spoke to him a moment ago.“
