Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy

The banquet continued into the wee hours of the morning.

It was not Joshua’s first time in Sea City, but for some unknown reason, they were exceptionally welcoming and enthusiastic. They lined up to toast him, while he emptied cup after cup…

Finally, he almost fell unconscious, muttering nothing but Luna Gibson’s name non-stop, and was dragged back to his hotel by Lucas.

“I’ll take care of him. “ Lucas dragged him into the room. Following behind him, Alice said softly, “ You’ve worked hard today. Thank you.“
