His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 423

Chapter 423 His New Life Plan

Riveron Corporation.

Upon hearing it, Lysander also found it somewhat familiar.

A few seconds later, she remembered where she had heard it before.

Rufus once mentioned that the Everhart family had always been in partnership with Riveron Corporation in the past. However, now that Josial had bypassed the Everhart family and directly established a collaboration with Riveron Corporation, it had suddenly put a strain on the Everhart family’s finances.

As it turned out, this woman was the heiress of Riveron Corporation.

No wonder she seemed so refined in her speech and demeanor. She was nothing like the social butterflies or college girls, who were merely playthings for wealthy men. This woman’s status was not one to be taken lightly.

Susan laughed and told Howard, “Once Lysanne arrives, we’ll have a good chat with her.”

Howard also nodded. “All right.”

Daphne couldn’t hold back anymore and asked, “Mr. Thorne, what are you guys talking about?”

Susan took the initiative and said, “Previously, Josiah and Lysanne were engaged, but then… a lot transpired, which was a significant shift for both families. However, life must go on. If Josiah and Lysanne. are not a good match, there’s no need to bind them with a marriage. Today, I invited Mr. Thorne here to serve as a witness to dissolve this engagement.”

Howard nodded. “That’s right.”

Daphne was still somewhat shocked. “So… did Lysanne agree?”

“She told me she agreed,” Howard said. “No one here is a stranger, so I see no need to beat around the bush. After what happened last time, Lyss lost her ability to become a mother. Josiah is also not getting any younger, and he adores children, so they decided to continue their relationship as siblings, taking care of each other.”

“Mr. Guerra… you’re planning on marrying and having children with someone else?”

Susan looked at Lysander, as though her following words were deliberately spoken for her sake. “Yes, the past events were not very pleasant, but if one party has already let go, then the other continuing to pester them would only be a disturbance. That’s why Josiah and I reached an agreement to let go of the past and start anew. In this way, the other party can also freely choose the life they want.”

Susan had always been respectful. Her words not only clarified the situation but also carefully considered Lysander’s status.

Lysander had repeatedly made her stance clear in the past she had no intentions of getting back together with Josiah. She wanted to live her own life. Therefore, the best choice would be to keep her identity as Josiah’s ex–wife under wraps, allowing her to seamlessly return to her original life.

The rest of the group were all aware of the circumstances behind the situation, except for Tiffany, the outsider. From Susan’s words, it was clear that she didn’t want Tiffany to know about the antecedents.

However, today was a family dinner, and moreover, they were to discuss the dissolution of the engagement between Josiah and Lysanne. It was impossible that Josiah was not aware of this.

Yet, he still brought Tiffany home, and it was clear that Susan knew she was coming.

So…

Could it be that Tiffany wasn’t really an outsider after all?

Was the annulment of the engagement related to her as well?

Susan said with a laugh. “When you think about it, Tiffany is actually several years younger than Josiah.”

Josiah gave a nod. “Eight years.”

Tiffany tilted her head adorably. “Yes, Josiah was already heading off to university when I was only in the third grade of primary school. He was so much taller than me at that time. I really thought Josiah was a giant.”

Josiah also said. “Yeah, back then you were just a tiny shrimp, barely reaching my chest. Hmm, you’re about the same now.

“Jose!” Tiffany exclaimed, stomping her foot in frustration. “I’ve grown quite a bit, you know! I’m up to your shoulder now!”

Josiah chuckled lightly, serving her another piece of spare rib. “That’s why you need to eat more. It’ll help you grow taller.”

“I’m already twenty–five, well past the age of growing taller. But it’s no big deal. If my height falls short, high heels will make up for it! Once I put on my high heels, I’d be as tall as your ears!”

Susan said with a playful grin, “High heels aren’t good for your health. If you can avoid wearing them, you should. If you need him, just have him bend down to listen to you.”

Buzz.

Lysander’s phone chimed with a notification.

Daphne: What’s going on? Is this girl planning to marry Josiah?

Lysander: I really don’t know.

Daphne: Oh my god, Josiah has been closely associated with Riveron Corporation recently, even bypassing the Everhart family to collaborate directly with them. So this is the reason? Then what about the women he was with these few days?

Lysander didn’t know how to respond, so she just sent a sticker.

Most of her collection of stickers was sourced from Lynn. She selected one featuring a cat with an ellipses above its head and sent it off.

While they were talking, the doorbell rang.

Eleanor opened the door and greeted the newcomer, “Ms. Lysanne.”

“Has Josiah arrived yet?”

“He has.”

“All right.”

Lysanne slowly walked in, just about to call out a greeting when her gaze fell upon Lysander and Daphne.

Daphne rolled her eyes in annoyance, while Lysander busied herself with drinking water, not bothering to look at her.

Lysanne paused for a couple of seconds, then said, “Madam Susan, Dad.”

Susan responded indifferently, “Ah, Lyss, you’re here. Have you eaten yet?”

“Ihave, Madam Susan.”

“That’s good. We have guests over today, so the dining room is simply too crowded. Since you’ve already caten, why don’t you head to the living room and enjoy some fruit? Our home is quite small, so you’ll still be able to hear the conversation.”

“Okay.”

Today, Lysanne was dressed quite modestly. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

She was dressed in a high–necked, long–sleeved outfit, not a hint of skin exposed.

Lysander speculated that it must have been because the burn she had suffered previously had not fully healed, hence the need to keep it covered.

As Lysanne passed by the dining room, she glanced at Lysander once more, her gaze carrying a certain complexity.

However, it was Tiffany who took the initiative to stand up, greeting Lysanne, “Lyss.”

Her attitude toward Lysanne was somewhat unusually restrained, slightly awkward, and entirely unnatural.

Lysanne cracked a dry smile and said, “Tiff.”

“Lyss, 1…”

Josiah tugged at her sleeve, gesturing for her to sit down. “You haven’t done anything to wrong her, so what’s there to be afraid of? Sit down and eat.”

Tiffany poked at the ribs on her plate with her fork, still somewhat reserved.

“Everyone’s here, so I’ll begin,” Susan cleared her throat, “Lyss, you probably heard already, right? You should know why we’ve called you here today?”

Lysanne’s face was deathly pale’as she slowly nodded.

Susan, seeing her cooperation, felt somewhat satisfied. “Today, let’s make things clear with your father present. We all know how you got engaged to Josiah. But that’s all in the past, and I don’t want to bring it up again. However, Josiah now has new life plans, and we need to sever ties with the past. It’s good that Tiffany is here today, as she can witness it all so the will be no doubts in her heart in the future.”

Lysanne asked, “Till, are you really planning to marry Josiah?”

Tiffany stood up again. With her head bowed and her eyes slightly reddened, she resembled a child who had done something wrong. “Lyss, I’m sorry. I’ve known about Jose’s feelings for you since we were kids. I never intended to get in the way.”

Josiah slightly furrowed his brows. Clearly, he was repulsed by the past events. He didn’t want to mention them, let alone hear about them.

Lysanne nodded. “I don’t blame you. I have but one request. I hope there’s someone who truly loves him, to accompany him throughout his life, so I must ask – do you genuinely love him?”
