Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 552
Joshua stood at the hotel entrance in his black suit and appeared to be on the phone with someone.
Alice, standing next to him, looked serene and captivating in her sparkling, navy blue dress.
Luna looked away from them and felt a sudden twinge of pain shoot through her heart.
“Luna?“ Theo’s questioning voice rang out. Luna immediately came to and realized that the elevator door
before her had already opened.
She exhaled and hastily entered the elevator as though running away from something.
“This Mr. and Mrs. Allen that you’re meeting with seem like strange people. “ Alice pursed her lips in
indignation. “They’d already decided to send one of their subordinates to meet with us on their behalf,
but they oh -so suddenly changed their minds and decided to come themselves.
“They agreed to meet at Bamboo Palace, and I even went all out and decorated the entire place to
welcome them, but they changed the venue at the last minute. Don’t you think they’re a little stuck-up?
It’s not like they’re the only people that can provide the specific kind of special ore we’re looking for.“
Joshua hung up the phone indifferently. “Maybe Mr. and Mrs. Allen changed the venue due to private

Alice rolled her eyes. “Haven’t they been living overseas for a long time now? What kind of private
matters would they have to attend to here in Banyan City?“
Joshua did not answer and instead strode toward the elevator, appearing unconcerned. “Well, you’ll
know soon enough.“
Joshua had just found out the vendor that would be providing Lynch Group with the precious ore they
needed…was Theo’s family business.
This would be interesting.
“Dad, Mom, this is Luna.“
As soon as they arrived at the booth upstairs, Theo smilingly introduced Luna to his parents.
“Ms. Luna, please take a seat! “ Theo’s mother, Celeste, beamed at Luna and invited her to sit.
“Where are you from, Ms. Luna?“
“How many family members do you have?“ “How did you and Theo meet?“
As soon as Luna sat down, Celeste bombarded her with a series of questions that left her a little
unnerved.
It was, in fact, Luna’s first time meeting a boyfriend’s parents. Even though she had been married to
Joshua in the past, Joshua grew up with a single parent, and his father did not pay much attention to him
at all. Therefore, Luna never had to experience the awkwardness of meeting her boyfriend’s parents for
the first time.
“I’ve looked at your portfolio, Ms. Luna. Your designs are absolutely beautiful! You truly are a talented
jewelry designer! “ Theo’s father, Nathan, chimed in and praised Luna as he stroked his beard. “ Ms.
Luna, our family runs a business selling ores meant for jewelry making. In the future, if you and Theo get
married, we can build a jewelry company of our own! “
Luna’s heart sank as soon as she heard that. She frowned and asked, “Uncle, did you just say…that
your family sells ores to jewelry companies?“
If she remembered correctly…
Joshua had a business meeting with a vendor that would be supplying valuable ores to the Lynch Group
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthis very night.
“Yes, that’s correct. “ Nathan stroked his beard and let out a hearty laugh. “Although we work with a lot of
big companies, we’ve always been very low-rofile and discreet. Not even Theo knows about all this! I
wouldn’t have told you this if I didn’t know you were a jewelry designer.“
With that, he gave a triumphant smile and added, “In fact, besides meeting you, we’re also here tonight
to discuss a collaborating opportunity with a very well-established company! “
Luna’s hand, hidden underneath the table all this while, gripped the hem of her shirt tightly. If her
suspicions were right…
“The company we’re going to be working with is Lynch Group from Banyan City! “
As soon as Nathan proudly declared the name of the company, Luna and Theo’s expressions darkened,
but Nathan did not seem to notice that. Instead, he lowered his head to glance at his watch and
remarked, “Mr. Lynch called a while ago to tell me he’s already downstairs. What’s taking him so long?”
As soon as he finished his sentence, someone knocked on the door. “Hello, is this Mr. Nathan Allen’s
booth?”
