Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 769
“Ms. Blake! “
“Fiona! “
Jude and Joshua both exclaimed as soon as they saw Fiona falling.
Joshua immediately rushed forward to help Fiona up before lifting his head to shoot Luna a murderous
glare. “You’ve already witnessed how weak Fiona is. She was just talking to you, and she didn’t even say
anything that was out of line. Why did you shove her like that?“
Luna stared at Fiona, who was slumped ashen-faced in Joshua’s arms, and smirked contemptuously.
“She didn’t say anything out of line, you say? Joshua Lynch, she mentioned my son and even said she
wanted to become his godmother. Don’t you think she’s trying to provoke me?
“What does my son have to do with her? Both I and Nigel aren’t close with her, so why would she want to
become his godmother? Why doesn’t she just voice out her true intentions? That all she wants is to take

Joshua, whose arms were wrapped around Fiona protectively, stiffened when he heard this.
He did not know that this was how Luna felt about Fiona. However, she was mistaken. Fiona did not
want to take Nigel away from her at all.
Fiona had told Joshua that, after donating her bone marrow to Nigel, she and him would have a
connection. Therefore, her last wish was to hear Nigel address her as godmother . This was all it took to
make her life feel complete.
”I only have less than a year to live anyway, so even though I can’ t become a mother , it’d be nice to
hear a child call me godmother. I’ d be content with that, even if I can’t have children of my own… ”
Joshua recalled Fiona’s soft voice when she told him this at the hospital. ”It’s just, I don’t know if Ms.
Luna and Nigel would agree to this… ”
At that time , Joshua tried to reassure her and told her that they would discuss this next time.
Fiona had specifically requested him not to let Luna know she was the donor of the bone marrow that
Nigel would be receiving. Since she did not want to let Luna know the truth, she naturally must have
thought that Luna would refuse to let Nigel call her godmother.
Therefore, Joshua decided that he would bring this up again after Fiona changed her mind about letting
Luna know the truth. He did not expect that Fiona would blurt this out in front of Luna.
However, even though it was rude of Fiona to make this request, Luna still should not have lost her
temper and shoved her like that. Luna had witnessed how weak and sickly Fiona was this afternoon, so
how could she have pushed her so forcefully?
”Luna, Ms. Blake meant no harm. How could you have shoved her like that? Aren’t you being a little rash
right now?” Jude immediately approached them and tried to salvage the situation, seeing how close
these three were getting into a conflict. “Besides, she was just complimenting Nigel—she didn’t even say
anything bad about him. Don’t you think you’re overreacting a little?“
“Ms. Blake knows full well whether I’m overreacting or not.“ Luna stood motionless and looked down at
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFiona, who was still slumped in Joshua’s arms. “Let me tell you this: I can be a timid little dog and let you
and Mr. Lynch bully me all you want, but I draw the line at my children. If anyone dares to hurt or take my
children away from me, you won’t walk out unscathed! “
With that, Luna turned around coldly and disappeared into the hall, grabbing the hem of her dress as she
did.
Joshua noticed the anguish and despair in Luna’s eyes when she said it all. A glimmer of sympathy
flashed through his dark eyes, and Fiona picked up on this.
An evil glint flickered through her eyes, but a few seconds after that, she squinted and started crying. “
Joshua…“
She wriggled closer to Joshua and sobbed, “Ms. Luna misunderstood me… I didn’t mean to provoke her,
nor was I trying to show her up… I was just…“
“I know.“
