Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 839
“Nigel, I told you! I told you Daddy will definitely come to visit you! “ Nellie yelled excitedly as she pulled
Joshua into the room.
At the side of the room, Anne looked at Nellie and widened her eyes in shock. Since Nellie was
diagnosed with autism, she rarely spoke unprompted. Sometimes, when others talked to her, she would
even keep quiet and refuse to answer.
Anne had been accompanying Luna and Nellie throughout the whole day as they waited for Nigel and
this was the first time Nellie took the initiative to speak.
Luna looked at Anne’s shocked expression and could not help but sigh. She remembered the last time
Nellie took the initiative to speak was when Nellie asked her to stay beside Joshua, to take care of him

Now, she spoke on her own initiative again, and again, it was for Joshua. Nellie’s love for her father was
obvious. Luna was not angry that Nellie liked Joshua, she was just sad. For him, Nellie could even
overcome her autism, and take the initiative to speak. But in Joshua’s eyes, Nellie was nothing. To him,
Nellie, Nigel, and even Neil who had passed away and the other child…they were all useless, old
documents. He could throw them away at a moment’s notice, without an ounce of hesitation.
“Mr. Lynch.“
Nigel took the glass of water Luna handed to him and raised his eyes and looked at his mother. His eyes
were dark as he asked, “Did you visit me outside when I was in the operating theatre?“
“Where would he find the time?“ Anne snorted and was about to say something but she was interrupted
by a look from Luna.
No matter what, Nigel had just finished his operation, she did not want him to be too depressed. It would
be better if she told him the truth after his body recovered completely.
“But I heard Mr. Lynch’s voice.“ Nigel looked at Joshua, both his tone and expression remained calm.
“During the operation even though I was unconscious, but faintly, I’m sure I heard your voice. I’m sure I
did.“
Joshua narrowed his eyes slightly. During Nigel’s operation, he did indeed ask the doctor about Nigel’s
condition several times through the CCTV camera. He never thought that the boy who was unconscious
from the effects of the anesthesia would hear him and even remember him.
“Maybe it was an illusion.“ He smiled as he looked at his son and laughed, “I was never here.“
Nigel looked at his father’s cold, hard, face and tried desperately to detect a hint of his emotions. But he

The little guy set down the glass, then sighed, his eyes lowered. Since Joshua did not want to admit it,
fine.
Nigel was a hacker, a computer expert, how could he have made up Joshua’s voice that was sent over
the internet and played from the CCTV camera? He did not know why Joshua pretended not to care
about him in front of Mommy, when he obviously did, even going so far as to asking the doctor several
times about his condition during his operation. But he knew the man was not as awful as he imagined.
During Nigel’s sentiments, Joshua’s phone rang. He lowered his eyes and looked at the incoming
number, then hurriedly bid goodbye to Nigel and turned and left.
The moment he turned away, Luna saw the name of the incoming caller, Fiona Blake. She watched his
retreating back, a thick layer of frost covering the bottom of her heart.
