Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 261
Alice rolled her eyes. What was there to feel accomplished about in making breakfast?
Just as Alice was about to retort, however, she caught sight of the way Joshua stared at Luna. Alarm
bells immediately rang in her head. Luna must have said that on purpose!
Alice smiled. “I used to think that way. Although it’s a small action, making breakfast for my family gave
me the greatest sense of fulfillment ever. “ She let out a sigh before she continued wistfully, “
Unfortunately… I discovered that I couldn’t even protect the people I love. I was such a failure. Ever
since then, no matter what I did, I couldn’t feel accomplished or fulfilled anymore.“
Upon hearing these words, Joshua immediately turned his attention back to her. She was right. Joshua
knew that he could not even begin to imagine what Alice had gone through in these six years apart.
Although she had changed and she was no longer the woman he fell in love with, Joshua felt that he
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshould not have doubted her, much less fooled by another woman’s words even if just for a split second.
Joshua sighed and glanced at Alice. “It’s all in the past now.“ He silently made up his mind that no matter
what it took, he would help her regain her old self again.
Joshua put down his cutlery and stood up. “Let’s go.“
His tender gaze made Alice feel triumphant. She grabbed his arm and leaned her head on his shoulder.
“Should I go to the Human Resources department first?“
Joshua gave her a gentle smile. “Yes, I’ll take you there.“ With that, the two turned and left.
Before he walked out of the door, however, Joshua turned around and glanced at Luna. “I want to see
you in my office at ten in the morning.“
Theo watched as Joshua and Alice’s figures retreated. He chuckled. “Well, that was a short encounter.“
He glanced at his watch. “We still have 20 minutes to spare.“
Theo lifted his head to stare at Luna. “Why do you seem to care so much about your boss?“
Luna laughed. “Aren’t employees supposed to care about their bosses?“
Theo propped his chin up. “I guess that makes sense.“
Luna did not want to be the topic of discussion, so she lifted her gaze to meet Theo’s and diverted the
conversation. “I’m a huge fan of yours, and I’ve always been on the lookout for your whereabouts. I know
that you don’t usually stay in any place for long, so what made you decide to rent a house in Banyan
City?“
Theo lowered his head and stirred the contents of his bowl with his spoon. “Do you want to know that
badly?“
“It’s okay if you don’t want to tell me.“
“No, I don’t mind.“ Theo let out a strained laugh. “Do you remember the painting that Alice tried to accuse
you of ruining? Well, that painting is called The Girl with the Kite, and it was based on a scene I stumbled
upon a long time ago when I passed by a school. The girl was wearing a white dress and chasing a kite.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe looked so beautiful under the sun that I was mesmerized and painted the scene as soon as I got
home. However, when I tried to track the girl down, I couldn’t find her anymore.“
He continued, “Many years later, this painting became my most well-known artwork. The more attention it
gained, the more I wanted to find this girl and thank her in person. Finally, five years ago, I managed to
find out her name. It was Luna Gibson.“
Clang!
As soon as Theo finished his sentence, the spoon in Luna’s hand dropped and clanked against the edge
of her bowl. She froze for a moment before she hastily picked up the spoon and shot Theo a nervous
glance. “Are you sure that’s her?“ “Yes, I’m positive.“ Theo gave a small yawn and gazed into Luna’s
eyes. “However, when I returned to Banyan City five years ago to track her down, I discovered that she
had been dead for a year.“
