Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 1939

When Dr. Laura Suess came out of Bonnie's room, Joshua was talking on the phone in the living room.

The members of his company's higher management were reporting on the outcome of the tactics they had employed against Landry Group that afternoon.

"Alright, that's enough now. Just keep me updated if there are any changes. Thanks for your work, everyone."

Every single syllable of Joshua's low, melodic voice hammered against Dr. Laura’s thumping heart.

She could not resist handsome, successful, independent men like this, much less one that possessed such an angelic voice.

Truth be told, Joshua had caught her eye ever since he arrived in Merchant City.

At that time, her colleagues at the hospital would pore over the daily news and gossip about how handsome, rich, and attractive this newcomer Joshua Lynch was.

Every time her colleagues brought up the topic of Joshua, Dr. Laura would pretend as though she could not hear them.

However, she still could not help searching for Joshua's name on the internet and reading news about him in secret.

The moment she read the news about Joshua successfully defeating both the Landry and Quinn families-two of the most powerful families that had dominated Merchant City for over 20 years-and forcing them to team up to stand a fighting chance against him, Dr. Laura knew that this was the man she wanted to marry.

Only a powerful, successful man like him was fit to be her future spouse, and Joshua Lynch was the cream of the crop.

Therefore, Dr. Laura quit her job at the hospital and spent the next year working toward her goal until, finally, she seized the opportunity to become Joshua's family doctor.

The glimmer in her eyes grew even more determined as she stared at the tall, slender man sitting on the sofa.

The person she loved was just within her reach.

One day, she would make Joshua Lynch hers!

At this moment, Joshua hung up the phone.

"Dr. Laura." Joshua did not even have to turn around to know that she was standing behind him. "How's Bonnie doing now?"

Dr. Laura finally came to and approached him, smiling. "She's fine, although she's still a little weak after having undergone the abortion."

Joshua narrowed his eyes and fixed his sharp gaze on Dr. Laura's face as though he could see right through her lie. "Are you sure she went through with the abortion?"

Truth be told, Bonnie was not very good at hiding the truth. When they were still at the clinic, Joshua had already noticed a clue.

Even though the paper that she showed him and Luna was indeed a legitimate surgery consent form, the most crucial signature to signify the completion of the surgery was missing.

This meant that Bonnie had consented to the surgery and was on the waiting list, but she had chickened out and changed her mind at the last minute, choosing not to go through with it in the end.

This was why the signature was not recorded on the consent form. However, she still claimed that she had gone through with the abortion.

Joshua understood what she was trying to do; she just did not want to let anyone know that she still loved Jim.

After all, anyone would think that the most beneficial decision for her would be to forget about him.

However, it was because Joshua knew Bonnie had chickened out that he even dared to say the things he had said to her.

He was worried that Bonnie would regret her decision and put her child at risk again in the future, but at this moment, it seemed that she would not do so anymore.

"Yes...yes..." Dr. Laura lowered her head nervously. "Ms. Bonnie has indeed gone through with the abortion..."

She did not dare to meet Joshua's gaze as she stammered, "I gave her some medicine to make her feel better, so..."
