His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 467 They Need To Mind Themselves

They were seated, one on the couch, the other on a chair to the side. The chair was originally a bit higher than the comfortable couch, but due to Josiah’s considerable height advantage over Lysander, they appeared to be on the same level.

The distance between them had inexplicably lessened significantly.

Seeing her silence, Josiah gave a smirk. “Would it be too much trouble to pour me a cup of warm water, Dr. Thorne?”

Lysander paused for a moment, then stood up. However, both the coffee table and the dining table were completely empty.

“Where’s your cup?”

“There should be some disposable ones in the cupboard.”

Lysander furrowed her brows. “You didn’t even buy a cup?”

Josiah scoffed, “I don’t have Mr. Housewife at home to prepare and provide everything for me.”

He is being sarcastic again.

Lysander said, “Considering you’ve helped Old Mrs. Everhart, I’ll gift you a cup as a token of appreciation.”

Josiah raised an eyebrow. “Seems like you’re not surprised at all.”

“It’s not hard to guess.” Lysander said, “Madam Susan hasn’t been involved in the affairs of the Guerra family for many years. She probably doesn’t even know where the family’s private jet is parked, There’s

no way she could have arranged everything in such a short time.”

“When did you figure it out?”

“When I came over to have a meal at your place.” Lysander paused for a moment, then added, “At Madam Susan’s house.”

Josiah lowered his gaze. “I would like to drink some water.”

Lysander stood up and said, “I’ve boiled some over at my place. Could you wait a moment?”

“Alright.”

Lysander quickly made a trip to her own home, only to find the door locked. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

Upon glancing at her phone, she noticed a message from Adrian. He had written to inform her that something urgent had come up and he had to leave early. Tiffany also received a call from her father asking her to come home. So, Adrian had conveniently dropped Tiffany off on his way.

Upon entering, the dining table was indeed still adorned with the same spread of dishes from earlier.

However, they had essentially all gone cold.

Lysander felt that it was a shame. She had put so much effort into preparing the dishes, but in the end, not

She rummaged through the storage locker and found a new ceramic cup.

After disinfecting it with boiling water, she filled up the cup to bring over to Josiah.

When she returned, Josiah had already laid down.

He was lying on his side on the couch, curled up with one hand resting on his stomach.

Hearing her footsteps, he slowly sat up, furrowing his brow as he asked, “Why were you gone for so long?”

“I bought a cup but hadn’t sterilized it with boiling water… Are you still feeling unwell?”

“A little.”

“Where is your medicine?”

Josiah said nothing.

“Where is it?”

“At the office.”

Lysander furrowed her brows.

Josiah said, “I forgot it this morning when I rushed back. So, it was left at the office.”

Lysander recognized the crux of the matter. “So, you’ve been feeling unwell since yesterday?”

Josiah gave a bitter smile. “It’s been a while now. I’ve been attending many social events lately, drinking more than usual.”

Lysander spoke in a deep voice. “Has Guerra Group encountered any problems recently? You didn’t use to have so many social engagements.”

“Before, when there were no social obligations, I could go home. But now, I find going home to be dull. It’s better to stay out and find something to do.”

“There’s a pharmacy downstairs, I’ll go buy it for you.”

Josiah grabbed her wrist. “I’ll be fine with just some warm water. It’s rare for you to sit here and talk to me, so please don’t leave.”

Lysander stared at him for a few seconds before finally deciding to sit down.

However, she didn’t forget to slip her wrist out of his palm. “You’re about to get married, so mind yourself.”

Josiah chuckled, releasing his grip on her wrist, his arm naturally propping himself up on the couch. He leaned casually against the backrest. “You don’t seem to mind at all that there’s another woman with me.”

Lysander responded quite seriously, “When I was still Mrs. Guerra, I did mind.”

She was referring to Lysanne.

However, it was futile.

Josiah sat up slightly. “When I saw you at Skywatch that day, Aiden told me that you had come to catch me cheating. For a moment, I… was quite pleased.”

“I was there to look for

my sister.”

“Yes, I found out later,” Josiah said with a bitter smile. “I even deliberately staged an act with Amelia in front of you. But in the blink of an eye, you left with your sister, completely disregarding the woman by my side.”

Lysander’s eyelashes fluttered as she thrust the warm water into his hands. “Drink it while it’s warm, or it’ll cool down soon.”

Josiah accepted it, first taking a small sip, then he tilted his head back and drained it in one go.

He glanced at the pattern on the cup, then looked at her. “Did Mr. Housewife buy this?”

Lysander was rendered speechless.

“It’s clear at first glance that this cup is part of a couple’s set; the male part.”

Lysander had only noticed that Adrian had purchased a pair when she found the cup.

It had a puppy print on it, one that resembled White Coat.

One was pink, the other blue.

Josiah suddenly clicked his tongue twice, lifting his cup as if it were a treasured possession. “I’ll have to place it in the most conspicuous spot later just to irk Adrian when he sees it next time.”

Lysander scoffed at him, “Stop being so childish! I’ll take the cup back after you use it. It was bought by someone else, what gives you the right to claim it as your own?”

Lysander took the cup from his hand and placed it on the dining table next to her.

How much longer until the seafood you ordered arrives?”

“I’m not sure, but it should be soon,” he replied.

“Check the food delivery app, and see where it’s at.”

Josiah frowned in annoyance. “I ordered a lot, and it needs to be cleaned and prepared. It’s only natural that it’s taking a bit longer.”

“So we’re just going to wait around?”

“My chair isn’t covered in thorns, it’s not like sitting on it would hurt you.”

Lysander was rendered speechless.

“Would you like to sit on the couch instead? I’ll make some room for you.”

Lysander sniggered. “That’s not necessary.”

Josiah hadn’t really expected her to sit next to him. With a slight smile gracing his lips, he continued to feign sleep with his eyes closed.

Lysander looked toward his kitchen, which was seemingly unused, and asked, “Do you seasonings or sauces at home?”

have any

“There should be. We were just missing some ketchup before, so Martha should have already bought it.”

“That will do.”

In the midst of their conversation, Josiah’s phone vibrated.

He swiped open his phone, took a quick glance, and within a few seconds, he locked the screen and tossed the phone aside.

“Tiffany?”

“No, it’s Amelia.”

“What’s your relationship with Amelia…”

“She’s a friend.” Josiah had an epiphany. “Why, do you care?”

Lysander said, “I’m just a bit surprised. I never expected you two to be friends.”

Amelia appeared to be quite the socialite, and on several occasions, she had heard Aiden Sutton referring to her as a “social butterfly.”

Before our marriage, Josiah had always stayed chaste for Lysanne. Even after our wedding, he was an incredibly devoted husband, so how could he possibly have a friend like that?
