Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 20

Screek!

There was a deafening squeal of brakes.

The black Maserati drove into the amusement park through the special passageway. The car door was flung open, and the tall man got out of the car quickly.

"Brother-in-law-!" The teary-eyed Aura ran toward Joshua when he got out, and she flung herself into his arms. "What should I do? Nellie is still in it! It’s all my fault!

"I shouldn't let that maid bring Nellie up there! I told them that the Ferris wheel was dangerous, but the maid didn't listen at all. To please Nellie, she had to follow her wishes."

Joshua was confused, unable to tell whether Aura's words were true or false. "How long have they been up there?"

"It's been ten minutes." Aura wiped her tears, so much in grief that she seemed out of breath. "I can’t live with myself if something happened to Nellie today! If I knew she’d be in danger, I would’ve gone up even though I wasn't feeling well!

If the person with Nellie was me, I wouldn't feel so unhappy and guilty..." "That’s enough." Joshua scrunched his eyebrows,

irritated by Aura's crying. "Did the staff in the amusement park repair it?"

"They’ve been repairing it since the accident happened, but they don’t know what went wrong..." Aura pointed to the maintenance staff under the Ferris wheel. "How could such a thing happen...?"

Joshua raised his head and noticed that the specific car without its door was still tilted in mid-air.

Joshua's brows screwed tightly together.

At such a sharp angle, the people inside might not be able to hold on for long. At the thought that Nellie was still in that car, the man’s heart sank to the pit of his stomach.

Although it had not been long since they met each other, he knew what a delicate little girl Nellie was. How could she withstand such torture?

Worry and anxiety flooded the man’s eyes.

"Lucas." He took off his jacket and threw it on the ground. "I’ll go up first. Go to the control room to see what’s going on."

Aura's eyes widened in shock. "Joshua, you... Are you going up?" 1

She waited for so long, only to have both of them still hanging on and Joshua heading up?

That must not happen!

Aura rushed quickly and grabbed Joshua's arm."

Joshua, it's too dangerous. Technical issues should be left to the professionals. Let's not take risks."

Joshua turned his head and swept his gaze across Aura's face indifferently. "I lost Luna once."

He was in South City when Luna was trapped in the accident. He had missed his last opportunity. God had given him another chance by giving him Nellie, so how could he stand and do nothing?

With this thought, he shook off Aura’s grip and strode toward the direction of the Ferris wheel.

"Joshua!"

Aura stood and watched the man’s retreating back, stomping her foot in anger.

The tall man got under the Ferris wheel, and after explaining his intention to the staff, he put on his safety harness and started to climb toward the topmost car.

Standing in the distance, Aura stared at his back and bit her lower lip firmly.
