Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 780
The person who took the glass away was Zayne.
He glanced at the glass of water in his hand, which was still clear and uncloudy, and smirked. “What
would happen if someone drank this, Ms. Blake?“
An expression of panic clouded Fiona’s face. She bit down on her lip, her eyes turning red-rimmed. “Give
that glass back to me.“
Shannon scoffed. “Give it back to you so you can destroy the evidence?“
With that, she picked up the phone and dialed the extension for Joshua’s secretary. “Courtney, ask
President Lynch to come to the design department right now. His girlfriend Fiona got herself in trouble
again! “
Yesterday, Fiona had deliberately poured coffee all over Arianna and claimed that Luna’s assistants were
trying to get rid of her. Today, she was caught red – handed trying to poison Luna. How was she planning
to explain this? Was she going to claim that Luna’s assistants were trying to frame her again?

more. “It’s just a tiny matter. Why did you have to call Joshua…“
She turned and shot Luna a pitiful look. “Ms. Luna, I wasn’t trying to poison you. Please listen to me…“
“You weren’t trying to poison her?“ Before Luna could even speak, Shannon immediately glared at Fiona
and yelled, ”Director Luna has security cameras in her office ! Are you trying to lie your way out of this?
Even if you managed to avoid the cameras, you still couldn’t hide from us. Every single one of us saw
you pour some white powder into Luna’s glass! ”
The more she spoke, the more riled up Shannon got. ”Ms. Blake, I don’t understand what you’re trying to
achieve here. Yes, Director Luna was involved with President Lynch in the past, but that was so long
ago. Why are you still holding this against her?
”If you don’t like her, why don’t you just ask President Lynch to fire her instead? That’d save you s o
much time and effort! On one end, you tried to force Director Luna to stay, but on the other hand, you’re
doing this kind of stuff on the down-low.
Aren’t you tired of leading this double life?”
Shannon had always been an impartial person. In the past, despite knowing Luna and Alice’s rivalry, she
had never taken a stand, nor had she ever stood up for Luna.
However, after witnessing everything that happened the last two days, Shannon could no longer tolerate
any of this. Fiona’s actions had angered her.
She knew that Fiona was out to get Luna, but she had never seen anyone as manipulative as Fiona. She
tried desperately to get rid of Luna, yet at the same time, pretended to be weak and sickly to gain
sympathy.
”Shannon….” Fiona fixated her red -rimmed eyes on Shannon and whimpered, ”How can you say
that…? I was just… I was just trying to…“
All of a sudden, she broke out into fits of coughing. She clutched the front of her shirt tightly, coughing so
hard that she could not even say another word.
Shannon rolled her eyes at Fiona. “Stop pretending.“

Luna furrowed her brows. She could not help frowning as she watched the color gradually drain from
Fiona’s face. “You…“
She contemplated for a moment and finally strode toward Fiona’s direction to help her.
She did not know whether Fiona was faking it, but judging from how hard Fiona was coughing, Luna was
still worried that she might injure herself.
Before she could reach Fiona’s side, however, someone slammed into her. Joshua had stormed into
Luna’s office with such force that Luna’s entire body was thrown askew, crashing into the easel next to
her.
Joshua did not seem to notice that he had bumped into Luna. Instead, he rushed over to Fiona’s side
and pulled the coughing woman into his arms. “Are you okay?“
“Joshua…“ Tears trickled down Fiona’s face. She sobbed and laid against his chest, her body still
shaking violently from her coughing fit. “They’re mistaken. I didn’t do it…“
Joshua narrowed his eyes and lifted his head to glare at Luna. “What did you and your troops do to
Fiona now?“
