Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 1093

Clang—!

Joshua kicked the knife a few meters away from Fiona.

Fiona suddenly felt that something was wrong as soon as she heard the sound of the knife landing on the ground. She immediately lifted her head from the contract and met Joshua’s frosty gaze.

A split second later, Joshua locked Fiona’s wrists behind her and pressed her down against the ground.

Nigel and carefully untied the ropes holding him, lifting him from the rock once she finished.

Because the ropes were barely holding him up, Nigel summoned all his strength to keep his balance, so as soon as he was rescued, Nigel collapsed in Luna’s arms limply. He heaved a deep sigh of relief and said, “Thank you, Mommy.“

Nigel did not have any strength to walk. Knowing this, Luna pulled him closer in her arms and said in a choked voice, “It’s fine. Everything’s fine now.

Mommy can carry you…“

Just a short distance away, Joshua had pinned Fiona against the ground.

“Joshua Lynch! “ Fiona screamed, staring at the half- signed contract on the ground. Then, she yelled with

every ounce of strength she had left, “You lied to me! You’re a liar! “

Joshua’s intention for drawing up this contract was never to protect her nor bring her home with him. He just wanted to trick her into letting her guard down and gain control of her while she was preoccupied with signing the contract!

However, Joshua knew very well that if Luna and Nigel did not leave now, and if he lost control of Fiona…

Luna alone —along with an exhausted child —would have no fighting chance against Fiona.

At the thought of this, Joshua immediately perked up and stared at Luna. “Get Nigel off this mountain right now, and send Lucas and the rest up here.“

Luna paused for a moment, then nodded.

However, after taking only a few steps, a crack of lightning flashed through the sky, catching Luna by surprise and tripping her. Together, she and Nigel tumbled straight into a giant puddle.

“Luna! “
After a few moments with no sign of either of them getting up, Joshua started to panic and cried out, ” Are you okay?”
