Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 271
As soon as he turned around, Joshua caught a glimpse of the bloodstain on the sheets where Alice laid
down moments ago.
Joshua let out a sigh of relief and left a note on the bed. With that, he left the bedroom.
Meanwhile, in the bathroom, Alice discovered that she was on her period. She was so frustrated that she
felt like hitting her head against the wall.
She could not believe the impeccable timing. She had planned to seduce Joshua so that she could
officially become his wife, but her sudden menstruation ruined her plans.
Alice cleaned herself up and rummaged around the medicine cabinet until she found her birth control pill.
She swallowed the pill in one gulp. She was willing to do whatever it took to get Joshua to sleep with her!
Alice came out of the bathroom with a smile, but Joshua was nowhere to be found. Instead, there was a
bowl of steaming hot soup on the nightstand, along with a pack of tampons.

went up to her and handed her Joshua’s note. “Mr. Lynch left this for you.“
Alice frowned and opened the note. Joshua’s handwriting read, (I’ll be sleeping in the guest bedroom
tonight. Take care of yourself. There’s no
rush. We still have the rest of our lives to spend together.]
Alice crumpled the paper in anger. The rest of their lives! Joshua always used that as an excuse to reject
her.
She had returned to Blue Bay Villa for quite some time, yet she could not even get so much as a kiss
from him!
Alice was already busy dealing with Luna and the two children. She finally had the opportunity to seal the
deal with Joshua, but he ended up finding out about her period.
After the maid left, Alice closed the bedroom door. She laid down on the bed and took out her phone.
“Mr. Walter, I need your help.“
“I found a new place. I’m moving tonight.“ Luna decided to notify Anne of her move during breakfast.
Clang! Anne’s fork immediately slid out of her hand and fell onto the table. She hastily picked it up and
asked, “What? You’re moving so soon?“
“Yeah. The rental isn’t cheap. I want to move as soon as I can since I’ve paid this month’s rent.“
Anne sulked. “I didn’t think you’d be able to find a new place so quickly…“
“I had a lot of help from Theo. “ Luna shrugged. “He has connections.“
Anne pursed her lips. “I think it’s a little strange that you guys barely know each other, yet he’s already
helping you out so much. What’s he up to?“ Luna chuckled. “He’s not a bad guy.“
“I didn’t say he was.“ Anne sighed. “By the way, Luna, do you know the eldest daughter of the Walters
from Sea City? I think her name is Hailey.“
Luna froze. “Yes, I know her.“ Hailey Walter was the girl with whom Joshua was to marry many years
ago. They used to think that it was just the parents’ meddling, but to their surprise, Hailey had taken this
arranged marriage seriously and insisted on marrying Joshua as soon as she graduated.

At that time, Joshua had no intention of getting married to Hailey, much to his parent’s dismay. When
they were dating, Luna was head over heels in love with Joshua, and she suggested that Joshua marry
her instead.
Luna thought he would brush this off, but he took her to the Ministry of Registration and got their
marriage certificate the next day. Luna thought this was the beginning of her fairytale love story, but she
was wrong.
She still remembered what Joshua had told her when they were getting married…
“I can’t promise that I ‘ll fall in love with you, but I can promise you one thing: I will never betray you.
You’ll always be safe with me.“
Every time Luna recalled his words, she could not help but feel repulsed. He promised to never betray
her and that he would always keep her safe.
