Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 1291

As soon as she saw Michael's frozen expression, Aura knew that something was wrong, but she tried not to show any emotion on her face. "Yes, I'm pregnant with Joshua's child."

Michael’s expression darkened. "You..."

"Michael!" Before he could finish his sentence, Celia, who was standing behind, smacked him and said," What are you doing? Isn’t it just Joshua and his new girlfriend having a baby together? What's there to be surprised about? Why did you throw the fruit basket o n the floor?"

She picked up the fruits scattered all over the floor and sneered, "This basket was prepared for your Granny Lynch. A few of them are spoiled from the drop, but it should be enough for an old lady who doesn't even have much time left."

She continued in a scornful tone, "After all, we're outsiders from the Lynch family, so we won't get any o f your fortunes. She should appreciate the fact that we even bought some stuff to visit her with our savings.”

Joshua narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. He smirked at Celia and Michael. "Well, in that case, I pity you, Aunty Celia. May I ask where the money for your savings came from?"

Celia rolled her eyes at Joshua. She and Michael were

both relatively short, so standing next to Joshua, who was over 190 centimeters tall, made them seem insignificant.

She thus mustered all her bravery and looked up at Joshua. "Our savings can't be compared with President Lynch, of course. We have to spend what Adrian brings home wisely."

"Oh," replied Joshua softly. "If I remember correctly, the money that Adrian made is all from Granny Lynch's possession, which means it's also Lynch Group's money. This means that the money you’re spending now, Aunty Celia, is also the Lynch family's money. In that case, why do you still need to be sarcastic about it?"

Joshua looked down from his great height and fixated his penetrating stare on Celia. "Aunty Celia, if you have so much time to waste talking nonsense like this, why not go make some actual money and buy a fruit basket with your own money. I'm sure Granny Lynch will be happier."

Celia's expression darkened upon hearing this. She bit down on her lip and shot Joshua a cold glare. "You did mention that the money I spent is given from Granny Lynch to Adrian. Although the money belongs to the Lynch family, it doesn't concern you, and it’s not your place to tell me what to do."

"Of course the money concerns me." Joshua curled his lips into a smirk and swept his cold glance across Celia's face. "I have taken over Lynch Group ever since

Granny Lynch retired due to her deteriorating health. From that day onward, every single penny that belongs to the Lynch family, concerns me."

"Oh, this reminds me." All of a sudden, Joshua seemed to recall something and turned to glance at Celia." When I first took over Lynch Group, I even used my mother's savings and invested in Lynch Group. This means that every single penny in Lynch Group wouldn't have existed if it weren't for my mother’s savings."

He raised his eyebrows to glance at Celia. "I’ve never met my mother, but I heard she's beautiful, like a model. Have you ever met my mother while you were dating my father, Aunty Celia?"

Celia's face turned a deep shade of purple when she heard this. She gritted her teeth and glared at Joshua. "I... How could I have possibly met her?"

She then grabbed Michael's hand and walked toward Granny Lynch's room.

Seeing that Celia was so nervous that she started to tremble, Joshua curled his lips into a smirk and added, "But according to the data that I checked, Aunty Celia...on the day that my mother died giving birth to me, you appeared in the security footage of the obstetrics department in the same hospital."
