Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1089
Joshua narrowed his eyes.
He knew that Fiona’s question—and her fiddling with that knife—was a form of threat.
He knew what answer Fiona wanted to hear, so he let out an exhale and curled his lips into a smirk. “She
means nothing to me. I’ve never loved her in the past, in the present, nor will I ever do in the future.
“The only reason I treated her kindly is that she bore three children for me, that’s all.“
Nigel, who was still tied onto the rock, clenched his fists as soon as he heard Joshua’s words.
Meanwhile, the color drained from Luna’s face. Even though she knew Joshua was simply telling the
truth, but…
It was one thing to know this but an entirely different thing altogether to hear those cold, heartless words

He had never loved her, and she had never meant anything to him at all.
Luna let out an exhale and tried to force herself not to fixate on this. All of her attention should be
focused on saving Nigel instead, but no matter how hard she tried, she still could not help feeling an
ache in her heart. After all…
This was the man she had loved for many years.
She loved him unconditionally for so long, but he had never taken her love and sacrifices to heart.
There was no way she could dismiss and not feel hurt by all of this.
On the other hand, Fiona could not help but let out a cackle when she heard Joshua’s words. She knew
better than anyone that Joshua was lying through his teeth, but she still enjoyed watching Luna’s
disappointment.
“Well, since you’re so honest, Mr. Lynch. I want to give you a reward.“ With that, Fiona sliced through
another piece of rope holding Nigel together.
Now there were only four ropes holding Nigel in the air.
His tiny frame dangled above the steep drop, shaking slightly in the rain and wind.
Luna was so distraught by this sight that her eyes reddened. She had no idea how to stop this crazy
woman from hurting her son.
Luna did not dare lunge forward to save Nigel, lest she startled Fiona and caused her to cut through all
the ropes altogether.
Yet, at the same time, she could not sit by and let time pass because Fiona had said that each rope
would represent an hour of their time. With only four ropes left, this meant they had only four hours left to
save Nigel!

please? Please don’t hurt Nigel… He’s only six! The one who searched for evidence to expose you was
me, not him! “
With that, she let out an exhale and extended her left hand with a look of determination. “If I remember
correctly, you were the one who ordered the bodyguard to crush my finger, right? He even told me that
for every day I continued to remain in the mental asylum, he’d crush one of my fingers.“
Luna lifted her head to fixate her unfaltering gaze on Fiona. “I’ve been your target since the start, so if I’m
willing to self-mutilate my remaining nine fingers in front of you, will you let Nigel go?“
Not only Fiona, but even Joshua and Nigel’s eyes widened in shock upon hearing this. Nigel, who had
been silent all this while, immediately started screaming, “Mommy! What nonsense are you talking
about?! Your hand… You’re a designer! “
The fear, terror, and concern over Luna’s safety finally made him crack. He stared at Luna with tears
streaming down his face. “Mommy, I’m not scared of dying. I’m not scared at all.“
