Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 15

"I feel like eating cake today!"

In the children's room upstairs, Nellie pushed open the door with a small hand and held Luna’s with the other. "The sweet yam flavor that I tried before."

Luna smiled helplessly and nodded. "Okay."

Both mother and daughter went downstairs, immersed in their conversation. As soon as she reached the top of the stairs, Luna saw the photo that hung on the wall beside the stairs.

She froze. The photo showed how she was before.

She stood beside Joshua in a wedding dress and looked at him, her eyes filled with love and shone with the light of a thousand stars.

Joshua's face, on the other hand, was as usual-eternally empty and expressionless.

Looking at this photo, Luna felt like all her blood began to flow backward.

She remembered how she carefully selected her and Joshua's wedding photos, one by one. She poured her effort into her little project and hung them everywhere he could see. She felt that one day, he would understand her sincere feelings for him.

In the end, reality gave her a tight slap.

Not only did she lose everything, but she even... even her appearance was ruined.

"Auntie..." Noticing how stiff she became, Nellie bit her lip and was even more certain that the woman in this wedding photo was Mommy.

Mommy used to look like this. It seemed Mommy could laugh so happily...

The little girl carefully observed Luna's reaction, and a trace of sorrow and grief surged in her heart.

Mommy's face looked far different. No wonder Daddy did not recognize her at all.

"Ms. Gibson, Sir said that you're not allowed to come here anymore."

At that moment, the butler's helpless voice drifted up from downstairs. "You're making it very difficult for m e."

"Why can't I come here?" Aura's voice was domineering. "Even they can live here, guilt-free, so why can't I come?"

The butler kept his voice steady and neutral as he answered, "If you refuse to leave, I have no choice but t o request Mr. Lynch to return home."

Aura suddenly raised her eyebrows. "What do you mean? Are you using Joshua to threaten me? Don't forget that I'm the rightful future lady of the house! If you get on my bad side, I promise I'll make you pay in the future!"

At the woman's words, the butler lowered his head silently and dared not challenge her. Although Mr.

Lynch had always been dissatisfied with Aura, she was his fiancee for more than five years.

It was only a matter of time before he married her.

Seeing that the housekeeper was not actively stopping anymore, Aura pulled another wedding photo hanging on the wall and smashed it to the ground fiercely. "This woman has been dead for six years, and hanging her photos would bring nothing but bad luck!"

"Stop it!"

Nellie angrily removed her hand out of Luna's and rushed downstairs.

The ground was full of fragments of the wedding photos. The glass panel and photo frame were shattered to pieces, and Aura went as far as stomping on Luna Gibson's face in the photos until her original appearance could no longer be seen.

Looking at the mess, Nellie almost started crying in distress. She wanted to rush over but was held back b y Luna.

Luna hugged Nellie in her arms and went downstairs cautiously.

With the floor littered with glass shards, Nellie, the child she was, could get injured if she did not pay attention.

"Oh, can't bear looking at this?" Aura crossed her arms at her chest as she coldly watched as Luna carried Nellie downstairs. "Hey, you little brat, this picture was hung up as soon as you came back. Did you ask Joshua to hang it?"

Nellie stared at her fiercely from Luna's arms. "I asked Daddy to hang it up. What's wrong? Daddy said that Mommy is the lady of this house. Is it wrong to hang u p the photo of the lady of the house?" 1

The girl’s words once again ignited Aura’s anger.

If Luna Gibson was the lady of this family, then what was she?!

She stared at Nellie ferociously. "Joshua is just placating you. I am the future lady of this family!"

Nellie bit her delicate lips. "You’re not! My mommy is!"

"I am!"

Listening to Aura softly arguing, Luna found the scene somewhat ridiculous. Nellie was just a six-year-old girl, yet Aura could actually argue with her tirelessly.
