Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy Chapter 2206

If a person had died more than 20 years ago, they would never again walk the world of the living no
matter how powerful Samuel thought he was.

Malcolm sighed and looked at Luna and Joshua apologetically.

“My father is just desperate to save my grandmother; that’s why he came up with these lies. I—”.

“I’m not lying,” interjected Samuel before Malcolm could finish. He then looked at Luna and Joshua and
bowed to them.

“A priest should not lie, and I am not lying.”

He mustered a small smile as he stared at the shocked Luna and Joshua.

“Remember the two rings you talked about that contained video chips? You thought I was the one who
made it after Lucy died, but it wasn’t me.”

Samuel shifted his gaze to stare forward as he added indifferently, “The two rings were made by Lucy
herself. I’m sure Joshua knows that she was a jewelry maker.”

Joshua furrowed and looked at Samuel, puzzled.

“It doesn’t make sense.”

If Lucy did not die back then, she would have gone looking for Charles or gone back home to look for
Granny Lynch, judging by her personality. Samuel’s story did not seem to add up to that.

Moreover, if she had the time to make the two rings, why did she not return home? If she did not die,
where did she go?



“She lost her memory,” said Samuel after seemingly reading Joshua’s mind.

Sighing, he lamentingly continued, “Lucy truly did survive, but her life was at stake. When she was on
the verge of death due to the torture she had gone through, I tricked Quentin by saying that I had
ruined Lucy’s face, which he eventually believed. I used another corpse to replace Lucy and ruined the
dead body’s face as well before replicating all of Lucy’s body features to the dead body, making sure
Quentin wouldn’t suspect a thing.” Samuel’s expression softened with what seemed to be melancholy.

“Since I had harbored feelings for Lucy at one point, I wanted to take her away secretly and perform a
proper burial, under the impression that she was dead. When I was on the way to pick a burial spot for
her, however…she started breathing again.

“So, I used the excuse of becoming a priest to leave tried every method available to treat her. It took
her five years for her body to recover, but her brain had automatically erased all the painful memories.

“I did try to restore her memory, but no matter what methods I tried, it was futile. In the end, I showed
her the video that showed how she was tortured and humiliated, and I told her that she had to
remember it because there is an act of revenge awaiting her.

“At that very moment, she told me that she didn’t want to face it. She didn’t want anyone else to see
those videos…”

Samuel closed his eyes, and the image of a woman with clear, pure eyes from 20 years ago appeared
before him.

“Samuel, I know you’re doing it for my best interest, but if the condition with the Landry family and the
Lynch family is already irreversible because of me, then what good could there be if I return?



“Should I choose my beloved husband, or should I choose my mother who killed my husband’s
brother? I can’t choose, and… I don’t want to face that nightmare again. I strongly believe that there is
a reason that my brain erased my memory.

“I want to archive these two videos. When either the Landry family or the Lynch family wanted to know
the truth, they could unravel it.

“You can say that I’m weak or irresponsible, or you can even hate me…but I just want to live the life I
have now.” Reminiscing back on Lucy’s exact words, Samuel sighed.

“That’s why I secretly exchanged one of the rings with the original one that Lucy gave to Jim. I wanted
to give the other ring to someone from the Lynch family, but I failed to contact anyone.”

Then, he looked at Luna.

“One year ago, when I met Luna in the Quinn mansion, I gave the ring to her because she was
desperate to find out the truth about what happened.”
