The Charming Ex–Wife
Chapter 121 Basic Manners
“You can think however you like.” Josiah’s voice was muted.
A frown immediately formed on Lysander’s forehead when she heard that.
She glared at Josiah. What is he trying to do?
Is he throwing a drunken fitt
Or is he intent on making life difficult for me?
When Josiah found himself on the receiving end of her glare, his anger slightly subsided as a touch of reason returned to him. “It seems to you that anytime I’m out of your sight, I must be with her anyway.”
Perhaps it was due to Josiah’s excessively nonchalant attitude that Lysanne didn’t harbor any doubts this time.
“All right, twenty minutes, then. I’ll send you my location. Come pick me up.”
Josiah ended the call abruptly and turned off his phone.
At last, it was peaceful.
He slumped wearily onto the couch, exhaling deeply.
“Aren’t you worried she’ll kick up a fuss when you get back if you just turned off your phone like that?”
Josiah gave a cool smile. “Then, I won’t be going back.”
Lysander quickly asked, “Do you want to stay in a hotel? Should I have Ms. Collins make a reservation for you?”
“Lysander, don’t worry, I won’t be staying over at your place.”
Having her thoughts exposed, Lysander didn’t feel too embarrassed.
She explained, “When it’s just a man and a woman alone, it’s better to be cautious.”
Josiah let out a hum from deep within his chest.
“Do you want more water?”
“Sure.”
Josiah took a few more small sips of hot water, managing to subdue a good amount of his drunkenness.
Lysander couldn’t help but find it amusing. It seems that arguments really do have a way of invigorating the mind.
In the future, when I work the night shift and encounter a drunken ruckus, there’s no need to go through so much trouble. I’ll just argue with them a bit and it’ll sober them up in no time.
Josiah slowly rose to his feet. “Guess I’ll be going, then.”
“All right, take care.”

Josiah chuckled. “Is there really a need for such formalities?”
“It’s in basic manners.”
Josiah slowly nodded. “All right, I’ll stop bothering you, then.”
“And don’t bother coming around in the future.”
Josiah gazed at her intensely for a moment, then turned and left.
The door was swiftly slammed shut.
Josiah turned around, looking at the tightly shut door behind him. Thousands of thoughts swirled in his mind, but in the end, all he could do was let out a sigh of helplessness.
When she went to work the next day, Lysander made it her priority to visit Priscilla.
As soon as she entered the office, Lynn sneakily approached her before she could even change her clothes. “Dr. Thorne.”
Having hung up her coat, Lysander swapped it for a white lab coat.
“What’s the matter?”
“Dr. Ziegler’s daughter doesn’t have the best taste, does she?”
Lysander had a good grasp of Harry’s character.
However, hearing Lynn say this, she reckoned something must have happened yesterday.
Lysander fastened her buttons before picking up the medical record from the table. As she walked out, she flipped through it. “Did Priscilla have another bleeding episode last night?”

Update pls~...
Why no update ???...
Chapters 692 693 ans 694 are impossible to read. Not sure if there was an issue with translation.but the words do not make sense..impossible to follow story line...
I cant get over the fact that the writer is trying to show as if the male lead has committed a grave sin. First he didnt know she was pregnant because she never told him. Second right from the start she never communicated anything. She was unbothered even during her marriage. I am not saying the male lead is great but atleast he seems like a human with emotions unlike her. And there is no context for why she is so emotionless....
The female lead is not charming but an unbothered b word, there is a very big difference. There is no point of extending this story at all because even if you write 1000+ chapters at 1001 the male lead would still be doing everything for her and she wouldnt bat an eye even if someone killed him. I mean honestly either the start should have been written better where we do understand that she was deeply affected because of her divorce or just STOPPPPP. Even for fiction it is annoying....
