Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 945
At John’s retort, Anne was speechless. In the end, she slammed her fork on the table and shouted, “ John Young,
whose side are you on? Why do you keep speaking up for Joshua?“
John sighed and said, “I only told you all these because I don’t want your friend to be tricked.“ He glanced at Luna’s
troubled expression and hesitated for a long time before he finally opened his mouth and said, “I’m so certain that
Joshua did all these the day Fiona became chief designer because…because of that woman, Charmaine Ross. My
colleague is her cousin, he’s her only family here in Banyan City.
“Two weeks ago, when Charmaine was fired, she did receive a sum of money requesting her to leave the city. Back
then, my colleague asked me to drive her out of the city.“
Hearing John’s words, Luna raised her head unconsciously. She bit her lip. “Then what happened?“
“Then…“ John sighed, “I remember clearly, that day, after the news of you bullying Fiona was exposed online,
someone contacted my colleague, wanting to know Charmaine’s whereabouts. Back then, my colleague even

they could drive, my colleague just needed to show them the way, so I didn’t go.“
Luna bit her lip unconsciously, under the table, her hands knitted together tightly.
“So… Were they looking for her in the morning or at night?“
“In the afternoon,“ John answered firmly. “My colleague received the call after we had lunch together, I remember
clearly.“
Luna gritted her teeth and did not say a single word. If her memory served her right… A few days ago, when the
news that she was bullying Fiona was exposed online, it was around 11 a.m. in the morning.
The video of her ‘bullying’ Charmaine two weeks ago was also included in the big reveal. And when Joshua asked
her to give up the position of chief designer…
It was in the evening.
That day he said that replacing her with Fiona was the result of the discussion between him and President Calvin, he
even said he would help her think of another way. Back then, she was filled with anger, she did not take his words
seriously at all…
But now…
If what he said was true, he only sent the evidence he collected to Bonnie so Fiona would not spend too much time
on work…
Then why would he ask Fiona to replace her on the one hand, and then on the other hand, quietly collect evidence
against Fiona behind Fiona’s back?
Such conflicting actions, maybe someone else would do something like this, but definitely not Joshua.
At the thought of this, Luna felt as if her brain was whirling with all this new information.
If he had been lying over the phone…then what was his true goal? Was it really to protect her pride and integrity?
That was impossible…
How could he possibly risk exposing his beloved Ms. Blake to humiliation and ridicule, to help her, someone he had
hated for years, maintain her reputation?
Seeing Luna’s conflicted expression, Anne glared at John helplessly and scooped spoonful after spoonful of food

to heart. You should take a nap after lunch, and it’ll all be in the past.“
Luna pursed her lips, and sighed deeply. It was true, she needed some sleep, a fitful rest.
At this thought, she shook her head, trying to clear the jumble of thoughts and ideas out of her mind. Then, she
raised her bowl and started to eat.
After lunch, Anne chased John away and pulled Luna onto the sofa once more, comforted her for a while, and
cursed Joshua out for a little while more. Finally, the two women were both exhausted and fell asleep on the sofa.
When Luna awoke once more, it was because she was rudely awakened by her ringing phone. She yawned blurrily
and patted around in the dark for her phone, then picked it up and answered, “Hello?“
An excited voice drifted across from the other end of the phone. “Director Luna, you’re already sleeping so early in
the afternoon? We just got off work. Today President Lynch distributed tens of thousands of dollars in prize money
to everyone who participated in the competition. Everyone is so excited, we plan to have a party tonight to
celebrate. Last night you said you were busy and left after eating a few bites, you should be free tonight, right? I’ll
send you the address, come over and join us for a meal. See it as our last goodbye! “
