NovelEnglishJoshua spoke impassively, face devoid of emotions.
He crossed his legs and leaned back against the sofa gracefully. “I ‘ll give you one last chance to tell
me what you’re looking for. Are you really looking for other women’s hair?“
Alice slumped onto the floor as soon as she heard this. She lifted her head and shot Joshua a
somewhat helpless look. “Joshua…“ she trembled. “Can you pretend you didn’t see any of that?“
She did not dare tell him the truth.
“If you don’t want to be honest with me, then I’ll make my guess.“ Joshua looked down at Alice from his
seat on the sofa and continued, “You’ve been very quiet and obedient for a while now. I naturally
thought you had changed, but you didn’t at all. You were just afraid that I’d divorce you, so you didn’t
dare do anything bad to Luna.“
Joshua propped his chin up with one hand and glanced at Alice, whose face was as white as the wall
behind her. “While I was here in Sea City, you searched my study and my office at Lynch Group Tower,
but you couldn’t find the divorce papers at all, so you assumed that I brought them along with me on
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmy trip.
“You came all the way to Sea City because you knew that as soon as I returned to Banyan City, I’d put
the divorce papers back into my study or office, and you wouldn’t be able to look for them without me
noticing. Now that I ‘m in Sea City, it’s much easier for you to search for them because if they’re not in
the hotel, they’d be with me.
“That’s why you came all the way here and spiked my food twice, just so you can find the divorce
papers without me knowing, right?“
The color drained from Alice’s face as soon as she heard this. She never expected to get exposed on
her first day arriving in Sea City.
Alice closed her eyes in despair.
It turned out that the money she had given the butler and Joshua’s secretary did not manage to bribe
them after all. Otherwise, Joshua would not have found out if it were not for them.
Emotions of despair and hopelessness clouded Alice like spider webs.
She knew that this time…Joshua would not give her another chance. She had experienced firsthand
just how cold and heartless this man could be.
Despite that, however, she still wanted to try her luck. “No, that’s not it…“ She clung onto the hem of
Joshua’s pants and pleaded, “Joshua, listen to me…“
“Alice,“ said Joshua as he rubbed his eyebrows in exhaustion. “Let’s get a divorce.“
Joshua did not want to continue this any longer.
He gave her chance after chance and picked up after the messes she had made. He was willing to do
this because he knew this was the woman he used to love and that she had borne him two adorable
children, but everything had changed.
This woman was willing to spike his food so she could get ahold of the divorce papers. What other
lengths would she go to in the future?
Was he just a tool for her to use out of spite and jealousy?
Luna Gibson was never this type of person before. She loved him with all her heart, but she had
boundaries.
Alice had none.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoshua did not think Alice loved him at all. If anything, her feelings toward him were just that of
possession and control.
Joshua could no longer tolerate this anymore. He did not want to lie to himself anymore.
“I’ll be getting custody of the children after the divorce. If there’s anything you want, just let me know,
and I ‘ll try to fulfill you. I hope this will be an amicable breakup.“
Joshua glanced at Alice’s pale face and added, “I hope we can still be friends in the future.“
This was the last straw.
Alice lifted her head in despair. “Are you really going to divorce me? You’re divorcing me because of
that b*tch, Luna, right? I knew it! I knew that the only reason she came to Sea City with you was to
seduce you! “
Alice’s face was etched with hatred and resentment. “ It’s her fault! Everything’s her fault! Things were
fine between us when you kept a distance from her,
but as soon as you got in contact with her again, you’d always change! “
Joshua furrowed his brows when he heard this.
How did Alice know there was a period of time that he and Luna kept a distance from each other?
”Alice, you’ve been following me, haven’t you?”
