Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 691

Joshua was unable to refute Adrian’s rhetorical question.

Joshua closed his eyes. The disappointment in him washed over wave after wave.

“I’m your biological son.“

Why did his thoughts and feelings not matter in Adrian’s heart? Only Hailey’s was important.

Adrian smiled. “It’s because I know that you are my son, that is why I hoped you could be with the best girl on earth.“

Adrian looked at Joshua with bone -chilling iciness.

“It’s true. I don’t really like you that much. I had a good relationship with your mother, but your mother died while she gave birth to you, and I was quite reluctant to see you after that. I left Banyan

City and left you for your grandmother to bring you up. No matter what, you’re still my son in the end. I also hope to see you being happy. However, only the girl I arranged for you can bring you happiness, yet you defied me over and over again…“

Adrian sneered. “I thought that you were only blinded, and that was why I helped Hailey, time after time. I never thought that you’d be hopeless. Not only did you kill the woman that loved me the most in this world, but you also forced the woman that loved you the most to kill herself.“

Joshua smirked.

“I’d rather hope that she didn’t kill herself.“

At that time, on the top floor of Sea City, Joshua did not know everything that Hailey had done. He only thought she killed herself in embarrassment and rage because her identity had been exposed.

When Joshua knew what Hailey did to Luna, Neil, and Nellie, she had already died.

If Hailey did not kill herself, he swore that he would not let her die such a quick death!

Adrian harrumphed coldly and stood up.

“Too bad Hailey has such a strong character—she never gave you the chance to torture her. If you’re here today to place the blame on me, then I can tell you that I’ve long known about the truth. Also, I don’t regret helping Hailey at all.“

Joshua’s hands which were on the stone table balled up tightly.

“Alice used the power you gave her to kill Neil. You won’t feel guilty about this at all, will you?“

“Ouch! “

Excruciating pain came from Adrian’s arm. He furrowed his brows hard and almost instinctively tried to pry Nellie off him with his other hand.

However, the infuriated Nellie used all of her might and grabbed onto Adrian’s arm tightly, biting his hand.

It was as if Nellie would not quit until she bit off a part of Adrian’s hand.

Adrian was in so much pain that he grimaced. Seeing how he was unable to stop Nellie, he got enraged. He raised the arm that Nellie was holding onto, wanting to fling her away.

However, before Adrian could raise his arm, his shoulder was pressed on by someone.

It was no other than his son and Nellie’s father, Joshua.

“Dad, you’re already so old. Why bother with a child? When your men hurt Neil, have you ever thought how Neil would feel being burned and blasted to pieces alive? “Nellie biting you, no matter how painful it is, is just a mere fraction of what Neil suffered that day.”
