Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua)

Chapter 133

“Luna, you’re drunk.“ Seated in the corner of a bar, Malcolm glanced at Luna, who was downing yet

another pint of beer. “You should stop drinking now.“

Luna pretended like she did not hear him and reached out to grab another glass.

“Stop drinking! “ Malcolm couldn’t take it anymore and finally extended his arm to snatch the glass

away from her. “You know full well that you can’t hold your liquor, so why are you pushing yourself like

this?“

Luna gave him a blank stare and let out a chuckle. “ Malcolm, it hurts.“ She drunkenly pointed towards

her chest. “It hurts here. I’m so stupid. I thought that he would be different. I thought that people

prioritize family over anything else, but…“

She wiped the tears from her face before continuing. “Am I too naive? I know that he hates me, but I Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

never thought he would hate his own daughter too… after seeing the way he cared for Nellie when she

almost got killed, I thought… I thought that his

children meant something to him, but I was wrong, Malcolm.“

“Nigel is sick, but I have no other way of helping him or easing his pain, and now, I can’t keep Nellie

safe either… I’m such a failure.“ Luna looked up with sadness etched all over her face. “You shouldn’t

have saved me in the first place. If I died…“

If she died, she would not have had to endure all these difficulties. Her children would not have had to

suffer alongside her.

“What are you talking about?“ Malcolm sighed. He gestured for a waiter to clear the table, then stared

at Luna intently. “A rainbow cannot appear without rain. All of these challenges that you’re going

through right now are paving the way for a better future. Besides, they are also teaching you a lesson…

a lesson on who to trust and who to give up on.“

Luna lifted her head to look at Malcolm. Tears started streaming down her face uncontrollably.

“When there’s a will, there’s a way, “ Malcolm said, letting out another sigh. “By the way, I’ve sent

someone to track Aura down. If they manage to find her, they will bring her to us. Even if Joshua

doesn’t punish her, I will make sure she pays for what she did.“

With that, Malcolm lifted his hand to brush away Luna’s tears. “It’s okay. Don’t cry.“

Luna bit down on her lip, her gaze fixated on him. She wanted to say something, but somehow, her

vocal cords did not seem to be working. In the end, she could only mutter, “Thank you.“

“What are you thanking me for?“ Malcolm gently smoothed her hair back. “Your problems are my

problems, too.“

Neil sat on the second-floor balcony above the bar, in between Zach and Yuri. He was watching his

mother drink downstairs with a pained expression on his face.

“I feel guilty for everything,“ Neil said into his necklace.

On the other side of the world, Nigel watched everything unfold through the surveillance camera. He

could not help but feel a twinge of sadness upon seeing his mother’s misery and the defeated look on

Neil’s face. “It’s not your fault, nor is it Mommy’s. All this happened because of that scumbag.“

“You’re right! “ Neil bit his lip. “You’re right, Nigel. That man is a scumbag. He is and will always be a

scumbag to me! “

Nigel let out a sigh. “To me as well.“

In the past, the two brothers used to tell themselves that everything was just a huge misunderstanding.

However, now… it seemed that it was not a misunderstanding at all! Joshua only cared about Aura. He

did not care about Luna nor his own children at all.

“How’s Nellie?“ Nigel asked.

“She’s not doing too well.“ Neil sighed and continued, “I asked Lily just now, and she told me that Nellie

has locked herself in her room and refuses to come out.“
