Will you marry me, My Ex-Wife (Luna and Joshua)

Chapter 2879

“I don’t care!” Mr. Hoffman did not notice Steven approaching from behind and instead waved his hand

dismissively at Mr. and Mrs. Hughes. “You were the ones who promised me I’d be able to have fun with

that woman. Now, not only am I left unsatisfied, but she even jumped off a building right in front of me!

“Because of you, I’m now being investigated by the police. I literally just came out from being

interrogated, and my wife has found out about my cheating on her. All of you should be responsible for

this!”

He scoffed and added, “This is all your fault-none of you could control her well enough! I will rebuke our

previous contract, and you have to pay me back the money I gave you!

“Not only that, but you need to give me extra compensation! If you don’t, I’ll spread the news about

your wrongdoing all over town, and you’ll pay the price for deceiving me!”

With that, he turned around and was just about to leave when he came face-to-face with Steven.

“What the hell?” he shot Steven a murderous glare. “You Hughes are weirdos! Who sneaks up on

people like that? Fucking.idiots!” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

With that, he strode away.

Mr. Hughes watched him leave, then instinctively turned to glance at his wife with a fearful look. “I told

you-we shouldn’t try to engage with people like him. He can always spread the news about our

transaction with him around town and it won’t affect him much, but that won’t be the same for us.

“If everyone finds out that we used our adopted daughter as a bargaining tool…we won’t be able to live

peacefully in this city ever again!”

Mrs. Hughes could not help raising her brows at this. “Well, if you really think it was such a bad idea,

why didn’t you try to stop me back then? Now that we’re in trouble, you push all the blame onto me-you

call yourself a man?”

– The color drained from Mr. Hughes’ face. “Well, you never told me Mr. Hoffman would turn out to be

such

a bad egg-I never thought he’d put Denise on drugs!”

Mrs. Hughes rolled her eyes at him. “Well, that’s because I had no idea either!”

Steven overheard every last word of their exchange.

He strode over to their side, frowning. “Did you say that Mr. Hoffman put Denise on drugs? What drug

did he give her?”

The two of them finally realized Steven had been standing behind them all along.

Mrs. Hughes furrowed her eyebrows. “Why aren’t you with that bitch? What made you come here all of

a sudden?”

Steven took no notice of her questions at all. “Tell me-what did that Mr. Hoffman do to Denise? What

drugs did he put her on?”

The color drained from Mrs. Hughes’ face.

A split second later, Mr. Hughes finally replied, “Well…I think he placed her on hallucinogens.”

Steven let out an audible gasp.

Hallucinogens?

It was no wonder that Denise would make that call to him and say such strange things!
