Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 1238

Courtney drank the clam chowder excitedly, complimenting Aura as she drank, "Ms. Gibson is so nice! She knows I'm working hard here and even gave me soup!"

Luna glanced at Courtney helplessly. Actually, she wanted to say...that maybe Aura wanted to give Luna the bowl of soup...

After all, if Aura really wanted to win Courtney over, she would never say something like the soup was for her because it did not taste good.

But whatever. She was not interested in the soup either.

Very soon, Courtney finished the bowl of soup, bid goodbye to Joshua, then left the villa with a big stack o f documents in her arms.

After she left, Joshua swept his eyes across at Luna faintly. "Didn't I tell you not to come to me so often now that Aura is here?"'

Luna glanced at him. "I know. But still, some words need to be said." She took a deep breath. "I want to say ...thank you.” She clutched his hand tightly. "It was my fault for being angry at you for asking Aura to move i n. I was too narrow-minded; I didn't take other things into consideration. If I knew you would send the children away before Aura moved in, I would never get

mad at you."

The children were all gone, only Aura was here. They could protect the children and also keep an eye on Aura to study her everyday movements. Besides, Aura was so high-key when she moved in, the entire city now knew she was here, if she moved out now, the public opinion that she tried so hard to get on her side would be depleted completely. Thus, Aura had no other choice but to swallow her indignance and continue staying here.

"It’s not too late for you to know now.” He lifted her hand and pressed a soft kiss onto her skin, then said gently, "I arranged for Theo and Nigel to stay in the same hospital. My wounds need time to recover, so I won't leave the villa. I'm guessing Aura will also stay a t home every day and wrap herself around me.

"If you don’t want to see her, you can return to the office for work, and when you're free, you can go to the hospital or the old residence to visit the children and Theo."

Luna paused. She never expected him to be so considerate and meticulous to the point that she would make all these arrangements for her.

She bit her lip, lifted her eyes, and looked at him seriously. "Didn't you used to hate it when I had any interaction with Theo? Why would you..."

Joshua curled his lips in a smile. "Do you want the truth?”

She nodded.

"To be honest, even now, I still hate seeing the two of you spending time together. But..." He closed his eyes. " I still have my priorities right. Without Theo, maybe Neil might not have returned to us alive. He’s in the condition he is in now because of Neil too. How can I ignore the fact that he's my son’s savior and continue being jealous of him?"

Luna laughed at his words and was about to say something when Joshua's cell phone rang. It was the driver whom Joshua just ordered to drive Courtney back to the office.

"Mr. Lynch, something is wrong. Ms. Johnson fell ill all of sudden, I'm driving her to the hospital right now. She looks like...I’m afraid she won't be able to make it b y the time we reach the hospital.”
