SWNOVELS Chapter 1717
Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy by Inked Snow Chapter 1717
After hanging up the call with the chief of police, Joshua closed his eyes in exhaustion.
He never expected that the case would be cracked so quickly.
Even though the police had already started to investigate Hunter as the prime suspect in this murder, they still could not confirm
whether he was the culprit or not just based on a fingerprint.
Because the police did not want to inadvertently alert him to this, they had been investigating this in secret.
Joshua thought that because of this, Luna would have to be stuck in jail for at least another week, and during this time, Jim
would have managed to take care of most of the Landry Group’s affairs. Therefore, she would not have to deal with these things,
nor would she have to settle them herself, and instead, she could take over as CEO easily.
However...
Joshua rubbed his brows in frustration.
Sensing Joshua’s mood, Lucas quickly called off the meeting and dismissed the employees.
After everyone had left, he gently closed the meeting room door and crept over to Joshua’s side. Then, he said in a low voice,
”Sir, the police have started to arrest Hunter now, and if you want Ma’am to continue remaining in jail...
”Another thing we can do is alert Hunter about their impending arrival so that he can escape.
”That way, Ma’am would have to continue being jailed because the police can’t capture him.”
Joshua narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. He glanced at Lucas, sneering, ”Are you suggesting that I become the Quinn
family’s accomplice just to keep Luna in jail?”
Lucas froze and quickly shut his mouth. ”I seem to have said the wrong thing, Sir.”
Joshua sighed. ”Maybe this is fate after all.”
Luna had never followed his plans when it came to their future.
Maybe it was fated from the beginning that she would one day become the CEO of Landry Group and rise to become his
opponent.
As soon as he thought of this, he let out an exhale and said, ”Cancel all my appointments for this afternoon.”
Lucas paused. ”Are you going to see Ma’am?”
”No.” Joshua stood up elegantly and adjusted his suit jacket. ”I’m going home to watch the kids.”
Lucas fell silent.
Over the last six months, every time Joshua felt upset, he would go home and lock himself in a small room and watch the three
children in Banyan City through the security camera placed in their home.
This was his method of releasing his stress and emotions.
Merchant City Central Hospital.
Hunter, who had just finished changing the dressings on his removed right index finger, was captured by two men in black as
soon as he came out of the room.
”Master Hunter,” the two men said in a low voice. ”
The police are on their way to arrest you, and we are under Mr. Lynch’s orders to help you escape.”
Hunter furrowed his brows. ”The police are coming for me? You said Mr. Lynch... Are you referring to Joshua Lynch?”
The men nodded. ”Mr. Lynch has just received news that the police are on their way to arrest you because they have found
evidence of you s*xually assaulting Cheryl Martin before killing her.”
The color drained from Hunter’s face.
All of a sudden, the sound of police sirens rang out from outside the hospital.
Hunter’s entire body started to shake. ”Why...why is Joshua Lynch helping me?”
”Because as long as you don’t get captured, Luna will have to be locked up in jail, and Mr. Lynch doesn’t want her to come out.”
With that, they let out an exhale and grabbed hold of Hunter. ”Let’s go now!”
