Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 180

Wesley rolled his eyes. “Mr. Lynch claims that his ex- wife isn’t dead and that he’s still waiting for her to return, but it’s been so many years now. I think it’s safe to say that she isn’t coming back anymore.“

He continued, “If in a couple more years Mr. Lynch gets tired of waiting for her and wants to remarry, Courtney will be his first choice for sure! “

Luna’s lips twisted into a smile and said nothing in response. She could not understand why Wesley was so confident in his prediction, yet at the same time, it was not too far-fetched either.

Even if Joshua changed his mind and wanted to marry someone who looked like the past Luna, it was none of her business anymore. The only thing she had in mind was to get pregnant and give birth to Joshua’s child so she could cure Nigel.

While Luna was deep in thought, the elevator arrived on the 18th floor.

Wesley cleared his throat and led Luna into the department. “Hello, everyone, I’d like to introduce you to a new member of our company, “ he announced.

“This is Luna. Our CEO, Mr. Lynch, hired her to be a design intern and assistant. If there’s anything you need, feel free to ask her for help! “ Wesley patted Luna’s shoulder gently. “Please get to know your colleagues.“

With that, he turned around and walked out, leaving Luna to fend for herself.

Shannon McCartney, the department head, gave Luna a dismissive glance and led her to an empty desk. “You can sit here, “ she ordered, tossing a stack of documents onto the desk that sent a cloud of dust flying through the air.

“These are the proposals that the CEO sent back to u s for amendments. I want you to run up to his office and resubmit them to him.“ She gave Luna a smirk before leaving. “Don’t mess this up.“

There was a girl sitting next to Luna’s desk, who appeared to be a university student. She nudged her glasses and whispered to her, “Luna, please be careful. This proposal has been sent back to us five times now, and every single person who submitted it ended up getting scolded by the CEO. Shannon sent you because she’s trying to make things difficult for you.“

Luna gave her a small smile. “Do you happen to have some tissue?“

The girl paused and handed her a packet of tissue papers.

“Thank you.“ Luna wiped the desk clean. Instead of heading up to resubmit the proposal, however, she sat down in her chair. After finding a comfortable position, she opened the file to take a look.

Through the glass windows, Luna saw Joshua sitting in his chair as he read some documents while Courtney stood next to him, offering him a cup of coffee.

From afar, the two did not look like a boss and an assistant. In fact, they looked like a married couple.

Luna’s heart leaped into her throat at the sight. It was not that she felt something was going on between Joshua and Courtney, but this scene reminded her so much of herself.

Many, many years ago, she had dreamed of doing the exact same thing, of becoming a power couple that everyone looked up to. However, Joshua never gave her the chance to do so.

Yet, six years later, he allowed another woman to get close to him. A woman that resembled the old Luna so much that it was uncanny.

Maybe, the problem was not with Luna’s appearance at all. Joshua did not hate her looks —he hated her person.
