Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1617
The color drained from Vivian’s face as soon as she heard this. She bit her lip and lowered her head in defeat. “I…”
Finally, Vivian let out an exhale and kneeled in front of Luna, coming clean with the truth, “Joshua Lynch wasn’t the
one who had sent me here.
“I was assigned to work here by Mr. Malcolm Quinn. When Master Landry was interviewing the candidates for the
servant that would be working for you, Master Quinn ordered me to interview as well, and I managed to get in.
“Everything that I have done during this time was under Master Quinn and Ms. Heather’s orders.
“Master Quinn was the one who had told me to prepare the baby and Ms. Luna’s blood and hairs. He said that…”
Slumped on the ground, Vivian shot Malcolm a timid glance, then finally lowered her head and said with an exhale,
“He said that he was worried Joshua Lynch would take the baby away after it was born and that no one would be
able to find it again, so he ordered me to collect the baby’s hairs and blood as soon as it was born.

“As for the baby’s cries and the children’s clothes, Ms. Heather was the one who had ordered me to prepare them
…she said that she couldn’t allow you to get over your grief of losing your child so quickly.”
At this point, Vivian’s head was so low that her entire body was almost touching the ground. “Inside the banking
card is all the money that Master Quinn had given me.
“Ms. Heather was the one who had given me the ointment this morning to apply onto Mrs. Landry’s back, but
Master Quinn told me to wait until his orders before I start applying.
“Today, after finding out that Mr. Lynch had stopped by, Master Quinn ordered me to put the ointment onto Mrs.
Landry after he left…”
With that, Vivian grew so scared that she could not stop banging her head against the ground to beg for Luna’s
mercy. “Ms. Luna, I’m sorry, I really am! I shouldn’t have taken Master Landry’s money, then accepted Master
Quinn’s bribery to help him do all things, nor should I have accepted Mr. Lynch’s money and blamed him for all the
bad things I did…”
As soon as she heard this, Luna took a few steps back, almost losing her balance.
Thankfully, Joshua quickly caught her before she could fall.
Luna stared, trembling, at the maid she had trusted with all her heart. “You… You had been taking care of Mother
for so long. You should know how much suffering she’s going through in her state! Yet, you still applied this
medication to her body and attempted to kill her.
“Vivian, the problem with you isn’t that you took money from anyone, nor was it that you obeyed the wrong
commands.
“Your biggest sin is your lack of sympathy toward a human being!”
Vivian started sobbing as she kneeled on the ground.
Jim furrowed his brows and glanced impassively at Luke, standing a distance away. “You’re the head honcho of
Merchant City; what would you do if one of your subordinates committed a crime like this?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuke curled his lips into a small smile. “I would kill him.
However—”
He glanced at the kneeling woman and continued, “What a pity to kill such a young woman like her. Why don’t we
do it like this?”
With that, he glanced at the man standing next to him, then lowered his head to glance at the time. “The time
between the first application of the ointment and when Luna realized something was wrong was about twelve
hours. Take the remaining ointment and apply it onto that servant, then lock her up, so that the ointment will work
for twelve hours, before releasing her.”
Finally, Luke raised his brows, glancing at Jim. “What do you think?”
Jim curled his lips into a smirk. “Thank you and your men in advance.”
“No—” As soon as she heard Luke and Jim’s conversation, Vivian’s entire body began to shake like a leaf. She
quickly crawled over to Luna and grabbed hold of her pant leg. “Ms. Luna, Ms. Luna! Please save me!”
She was crying so hard at this point that her voice sounded different. “I don’t want my skin to decay!”
She had clearly seen the way Rosalyn’s back looked.
