CHAPTER 847
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isnât Easy chapter 847
The air in the room turned into ice at Joshuaâs words. Luna frowned at the cold surrounding air, and
finally pulled her mind back from the conversation with Bonnie.
The moment she raised her eyes, she saw Joshua and Fiona standing together in the doorway. They
had their arms hooked through each otherâs arms, dressed in the same moon -white color, from afar,
they looked like the perfect couple.
At that moment, Joshua was glaring icily at Shannon and the few female employees beside her, his
fury apparent in his eyes.
Under his gaze, Shannon turned pale as a ghost, the few people around her all lowered their heads
instinctively and did not dare to raise their heads at all.
Luna did not know what happened. But tonightâs gathering was organized by her, she was the one who
invited all of them. She had to step forward to smooth things out when the atmosphere turned tense.
She sucked in a deep breath and stood up. âSince Mr. Lynch and Ms. Blake are here, why donât the
both of you come in and have a seat?â
With that, she glanced at the two people who were standing stock still in the doorway. âWhatâs wrong?â
âWhatâs wrong?â Joshua snorted and shifted his ice- cold gaze onto Luna. âWhy donât you ask your
dear subordinates what they were gossiping about behind other peopleâs backs?â
Luna instinctively turned and glanced at Shannon.
Shannon bit her lip and hurriedly stood up, saying, â Iâmâ¦Iâm sorry! I should not have gossiped about
Ms. Blake behind her back! Iâm so sorry! â
With that she picked up her personal belongings from the sofa and announced, âIâll be leaving now, I
donât want to rain on everyoneâs parade! â
Seeing Shannon stand up, the other women who also participated in the exchange of gossip also stood
up in a hurry, followed Shannonâs example and apologized to Joshua and Fiona, then rushed to the
backdoor.
Luna frowned, then stood up and stopped Shannon from leaving with a tug to her sleeve. âYou havenât
even eaten yet, why are you leaving?â
Their department hardly gathered together and now Shannon and a bunch of other colleagues were
leaving even before the food was served?
Seeing Luna stop her, Shannon bit her lip and lowered her voice, saying in a volume that could only be
heard by the two of them, âDirector Lunaâ¦we were just saying that Fiona was feigning her illness
As she spoke, she glanced at Joshua and Fiona who were standing in the doorway, her complexion
pale as a ghost. âNow that they heard usâ¦maybe we might even lose our jobs, weâ¦â
Luna narrowed her eyes. Just now she was busy talking to Bonnie on the phone and did not pay
attention to the conversation between the other women.
Taking in a deep breath, she bit her lip and said, â Come back. Iâll deal with this.â
Seeing Lunaâs determined gaze, Shannon sighed and could do nothing but apologize. âIâm sorry for
causing you trouble.â
Luna did not answer. She led Shannon and the other female colleagues back into the room and gave
up the main seat in the private room, then smiled and glanced at Joshua and Fiona who still remained
standing in the doorway.
âMr. Lynch, Ms. Blake, come, take a seat. That was wrong of them, Iâll talk to them later one by one.
Since youâre here tonight, you must have intended to eat and have fun with us. Donât let a minor issue
like this spoil your moods.â
With that, she shifted her eyes to Fiona and smiled as she said, âMs. Blake, as the presidentâs
girlfriend, Iâm sure you wouldnât care about something as minor as this?â
Fiona narrowed her eyes. Even though she was not satisfied with how Luna dealt with the issue, butâ¦
Hearing Luna personally acknowledge that she was Joshuaâs girlfriend made her mood much better.
So she curled her lips into a smile and pulled Joshua closer to her. âOf course, I donât care about
something as minor as this. I was just comforting Joshua not to be angry just because someone bad â
mouthed me⦠But he wouldnât listen.â
Luna narrowed her eyes and turned her gaze to Joshua.
He snorted then dragged Fiona to the main seat in the private room.
Because of Joshua and Fionaâs added presence, the originally lively and bustling crowd now sat
upright, with their backs ramrod straight. The atmosphere in the room was heavy and stifling.
Luna pursed her lips and enthusiastically filled Joshuaâs and Fionaâs glasses with wine as she said, â All rights © .
Mr. Lynch, I thought youâre very busy and wouldnât have time to attend a small departmental gathering
like this.â
âOf course Iâm very busy.â
