Neil looked at Joshua seriously. “I hope you won’t disappoint me then, Mr. Lynch.“
Neil took out his phone determinedly and deleted the evidence saved on the cloud storage.
He was taking a bet. He was gambling that Joshua would get rid of Aura for Nellie and for his Mommy.
The things he saw on Joshua’s computer the last time had troubled him, too.
Perhaps, this time, he could see for himself whether Joshua truly loved Luna or was just lying to himself.
Seeing Neil deleting the evidence, Joshua smiled faintly. “You truly trust me, huh?“
Neil looked at Joshua craftily. “Are you saying that you’re not a person worthy of trust, Mr. Lynch?“
“I ‘m just curious. If I was lying to you just now and I’m not going to do anything against Aura, what would you do?“
Neil picked up his fruit juice and took a sip. “If that’s the case, I believe that you’111ose a lot of things, Mr. Lynch.“
Neil put the empty cup down and jumped down from the chair. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now.“
Then, Neil turned around and waved his hands with his back facing Joshua. He strode off without looking back.
Lucas, who was standing behind Joshua, looked at Neil in shock. “Is…that how a six-year-old should be?“
He felt that this child was much more mature than him. It was terrifying. At the thought that this child was Luna’s son, Lucas also found Luna terrifying.
Joshua gently picked his cup of coffee and took a sip. “I was pretty much like him when I was six.“
Lucas was speechless. It was true that smart people are all the same, and dumb people have their own dumb ways.
Lucas took a deep breath and looked at the tablet on the table. “Should I take this to the police station?“
“There’s no rush.“
Joshua picked the tablet up and looked at the evidence closely.
“Just watch out for Aura. We won’t do anything to her for the time being.“
Lucas was stunned. “We’re not going to do anything?“
Lucas had always been siding with Aura because she has been Joshua’s fiancée for almost five years.
However, at that moment, the evidence was right in front of him. Aura nearly killed Nellie twice.
Even with all that, Joshua could say he was not going to do anything?
“What? You have something to say about that?“
“N-No…“ Lucas hesitated for a while. In the end, he could no longer hold back. “But, Sir, Ms. Gibson has done awful things. If you’re not going to do anything to her, aren’t you…indulging her?“
Joshua shut his eyes. He tapped his fingers on the table. “What Luna said previously made sense. If Luna Gibson could send Nellie back yet she wouldn’t want to see me, it must be because I’ve hurt her too deeply previously.“
“But, if you keep giving in to Ms. Gibson and not endangering Nellie’s life, wouldn’t she be even more disappointed?“
“Hmm.“
Joshua’s eyes remained closed as he smiled coldly. “I f you were in her shoes, what would you do?“
“I’ll take Nellie away,“ Lucas replied firmly.
Joshua opened his eyes and swept Lucas a glance. “
Correct.“
He got up. “We need to enhance our security. Get people to watch out for Aura and…protect Nellie.“
Then, Joshua strode out of the cafe.
Lucas was rooted at his spot, perplexed. What on earth was his boss trying to get at?
Luna did not know what ways Nigel used to comfort Nellie, but the past two days, when Nellie visited her, she no longer cried nor threw tantrums. She would even tell Luna that she would take good care of herself.
Nellie’s sudden growth and maturity made Luna feel empty. Since Nellie’s problem was settled, it was time for her to deal with Aura.

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....
