Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 1831

In the upstairs bedroom...

Luna flung open the door and plopped down on the bed.

"Christopher claims to like Bonnie, but I don't think he truly does!"

Joshua followed her into the room and closed the door after him. "But he looks quite sincere, and he seems to treat Bonnie very gently too."

Luna chewed on her lip, grabbed hold of a blanket, and snapped, "Well, if he really likes her, he wouldn't have put her through this pain!

"Bonnie could’ve been spared from this suffering, but he was the one who chose to do this to her. I know he wanted to make Bonnie remember the pain she had gone through so that she'd stay away from my brother in the future, and then Christopher would have a greater chance of winning her heart.

"But this sort of act is selfish right to its core!"

Joshua glanced meaningfully at Luna, then narrowed his eyes. "Well, I don't think it's entirely wrong to use methods like this to get what you want."

He strode over to the bay window and stared out at the yard that had been drenched in the rain.

Inside the yard, the trees looked exceptionally green and perky, and the small bench seemed to look even fresher underneath the pouring rain.

Joshua narrowed his eyes as his thoughts drifted elsewhere.

A year ago, he had been sitting on the same bench downstairs, muttering all of his most heartfelt words to Luna into a recording device.

At that time, the first thing he thought of every time he woke up was what kind of outfit he would go for that day and whether Luna would finally agree to meet him.

A year had passed since then. Not only had he successfully gotten Luna to meet him, but they were even standing in that same room he had tried to peer into every day.

However, in a cruel twist of fate, they would never be able to return to what they used to be.

Behind him, Luna did not seem to notice that Joshua's thoughts had drifted away. Instead, she continued angrily, "But if you truly love someone, you couldn't bear to see them suffer, not even a little bit.

"Even if there was no choice, one should only be allowed to hurt the person they loved in the most drastic situations, but it's clear that Christopher had other options. All that, and he chose to hurt her."
