Read Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy [by Inked Snow] Chapter 8 – “Look after Nellie, I’ll come home immediately.”

Joshua hung up the phone and stood up to leave.

“Wait, wait!”

Hearing him mention Nellie, Luna hurriedly stood up. “What happened to Nellie?”

His hand that held the door handle trembled slightly. He turned his head and studied Luna’s face coldly.

Facing his suspicious eyes, Luna sucked in a deep breath. “I’m Nellie’s personal servant; caring for her is what I should do.”

The man opened the door and strode into the hallway. “Let’s go.”

On the way to Blue Bay Villa, Luna tried to ask him about Nellie’s situation.
He glanced at her and threw the contract at her, “You’re not her personal servant yet.”

Luna pursed her lips, signed the contract, and handed it to him. “Can you now tell me what happened to Nellie, Mr. Lynch?”

Joshua frowned slightly. “Aura came to look for Nellie.”

Luna felt like her heart fell into a deep chasm just by listening to him.

Aura went to look for Nellie!

Why?

Nellie was the smallest amongst her three children. Both of her brothers took away too much of her nutrients when she was in Luna’s belly, and it resulted in her looking small and fragile when she was born. This was the first time she had left her mother in six years.

Luna kept wriggling about in her seat in anxiousness. With gritted teeth, she peered out of the window, anxiety written clearly across her face. “Hi, can you drive faster?”

Beside her, Joshua’s gaze darkened as he looked at her. “Ms. Luna, you seem to care for her even more than me, even though I’m her father.”

Luna stiffened.

She realized it only when he pointed out that her care for Nellie did indeed exceed the parameters of that of a nanny and her charge.

She pursed her lips. “I signed the contract. From now on, Nellie is my source of income, so it’s only natural I care about her.”

Joshua lifted his lips in a vague half-smile as he eyed her. “That’s all?”
