Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 445
The air in the car turned silent. Luna’s whole body stiffened.
She had not seen both Neil and Nellie for days. This was the longest time she had spent apart from them
since she gave birth to them six years ago.
She missed them dearly.
From the calls they shared this morning and yesterday in the afternoon, she knew the children missed
her dearly too.
The fire in her heart that was burning with excitement at the thought of meeting her children was cruelly
extinguished by Alice’s cold words, instead turning cold and frosty.
Alice was doing this on purpose. She did not have any feelings for Neil and Nellie. She was just trying to
get to her, to get to the children.
“Joshua?“ Noticing Joshua’s continued silence, Alice even called out to him softly.
Only then did he blink and recover his wits. He coughed slightly, raised his eyes and looked at Luna from

No matter what, Alice was still their mother. Even though she had not lived with the children throughout
the six years of their lives, after all, blood was thicker than water. Besides, Alice and the children were
never close. This was one of the rare times she initiated a reunion with the children, there was no
reason for him to reject her.
Luna’s hands clenched into fists by her side, her nails cutting deep crescents into her palms. She bit her
lip, holding on to the delusional idea that she might be able to spend some time with her children.
“What about at night… can I have an afternoon with them…”
She wanted to hold them and hug them tightly in her arms. Cook them a sumptuous lunch and just
spend an afternoon with them. This was her most humble and lowly wish as a mother.
But Alice was determined to rob her of such an opportunity.
“But I really miss the babies.” To make Joshua agree, she even used a term of endearment like ‘babies’
to describe Neil and Neillie. “Joshua, don’t tell me you don’t miss them?”
Joshua’s blinking eyes paused suddenly. Of course, he did. Before they left for Sea City, he had
arranged for Lily to stay in Luna’s apartment at the Swan Lake Residences to take care of the two
children’s daily life and at the same time… to send him some photos.
His phone was filled with photos that Lily sent him. They were his precious treasure. He even cherished
the photos of him two little children so much, what more their physical presence.
He frowned. “Why not do it this way. Alice and I are their birth parents, while Luna is their foster mother,
all of us love the children. We have been apart for too long, neither can bear to be apart from them any
longer. Why not Luna go and bring them down later, and follow us back to Blue Bay Villa.“
The man’s words made both Alice and Luna pause slightly.
“No.“
“I don’t think that’s a good idea.“
Both women opened their mouths simultaneously. Deadly silence once again enveloped the car.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFinally, Alice took a glimpse at her phone then laughed lightly as she said, “Then we’ll just do as Joshua
says. We are a family after all, we shouldn’t argue over a minor disagreement like this, don’t you think?“
Luna bit her lip harshly. She wanted to reject it. Fervently so. But at the moment, in everyone’s eyes, she
was just their foster mother. She did not have a say in these matters.
Sucking in a deep breath, she closed her eyes in despair. “We’ll do as he says then.“
“Luna is so kind.“ Alice lay in Joshua’s arms, her lips lifting in a self-satisfied smile. On the screen of the
phone in her hands, a message from a servant at the Blue Bay Villa was displayed.
“Adrian Lynch and Granny Lynch are already waiting in the Villa.“
Very soon, the car arrived at the Swan Lake Residences.
Luna climbed out of the car with a weary heart and headed upstairs.
”Welcome home, Mommy!”
