Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1247

After dinner, Luna returned to her room and continued watching the video of the jewelry design exhibition. But somehow, she felt hot. Even after lowering the temperature on the air-conditioning and goosebumps appeared all over her skin from the cold air, she still felt hot. She thought she had fallen sick, so she took a shower. And felt even hotter. In the end, she had no choice but to walk to the balcony in her pajamas and sip on some water.

That was odd. It was already autumn, fallen leaves were strewn all over the garden, and yet she felt so hot that she wanted to immerse her entire body in ice water.

“Luna.“ Suddenly, a man’s low voice drifted into her ears. She frowned and unconsciously looked in the direction of the voice.

In the little garden beneath her balcony, the tall and lean man stood there with a smile, an ash grey trench coat hanging from his shoulders. The moonlight shone on his well-defined features, making him look particularly handsome.

Luna’s heart fluttered at the sight in front of her. As if, as if they had both returned to the time she first met him all those years ago.

Back then, he stood beneath a cherry blossom tree in a white shirt, looked at her as she sat in the tree, and smiled lightly, asking her why she climbed so high up.

He startled her, and with a moment’s loss of balance, she fell off of the tree and into his arms.

Back then, she was held in his arms, she felt the warmth of his unfamiliar hug and studied his side – profile, all cold hard angles, and sharp features.

Since then, she fell in love with him, hook, line, and sinker. To her surprise, on an autumn night many years later, she could still see him looking at her like this.

Seeing her stand on the balcony, staring at him in a daze, he lifted his lips in a faint smile. “I couldn’t fall asleep, so I wanted to treat you to a cup of tea.“

Luna laughed in amusement at his words, “You never used to eat and drink tea, didn’t you?“

Her room was only on the second floor, not very high up, about the same height as the tree she used to climb when she wanted to sketch. Luna climbed down the rope effortlessly.

The moment she landed, Joshua’s arms caught her tightly. Same as when they first met many years ago, gentle yet powerful.

Luna felt even hotter now. She immediately wrestled herself out of his arms, turned, and headed toward the exit. “Where are we going for tea?“

“The car.“ He walked forward, held her hand, and strode toward his Masevati that was parked in the near distance. His large hand was strong and powerful, with a steady, calming warmth.

With her hand in his, she could almost feel his thundering pulse. Her heartbeat grew frantic too.

After the two of them climbed into the car, there was a power outage in the villa behind them. The entire villa was plunged into darkness.
