Chapter 145 That Child Is Not Mine
Without thinking. Lynn spoke up in defense of Lysander. “When Old Mrs. Guerra was rushed to the hospital previously, it was Lysander who attended to her. Old Mrs. Guerra had a lot of trust in her, and they’ve always had a good relationship…”
“I am the Dr. Thorne you’ve been looking for,” said Lysander.
With a disapproving wave, Lynn exclaimed, “Dr. Thorne!”
Lysander reached out, pulling Lynn back toward her and positioning the latter behind Adrian. Understanding the gesture, Adrian shielded Lynn with his body.
Upon hearing that, Leo immediately rolled up his sleeves. “Really? So you’re the one seducing someone else’s husband? You do look pretty good, but have you no shame? Today, I must teach you a
lesson…
As he spoke, his fist had already descended.
“Leo, don’t make a move…” However, it was ultimately too late for the middle–aged couple to intervene.
Given Leo’s impulsive nature, once he made a decision, there was no turning back. It was unlikely he would heed any advice.
The swing of his fist in the air created a whooshing sound.
“Dr. Thorne!”
“Lysander!”
Everyone held their breath. Adrian was ready to retaliate, but Leo’s fist stopped just a few centimeters away from Lysander’s face.
Leo was completely taken aback. “You… Aren’t you going to dodge? Do you realize that if I land this punch, you’ll lose a few teeth?”
“Dare you?” snapped Lysander.
Astonished, Leo stopped in his tracks. “What did you say? You think I wouldn’t dare? Today, I’ll show you what I’m capable of—”
His fist was once again raised high, but just like the last time, it halted in mid–air.
Lysander remained perfectly still, simply watching him with a cold gaze.
Leo suddenly felt embarrassed, his entire being filled with rage. “You must be up to something! With the kind of person you are, I bet you have set a complete trap for me! Is there someone around here filming? Or are you waiting for me to hit you so you can extort money from me? Oh, I get it, you’re a doctor. You’ve got connections in the hospital, you can easily get a fake injury assessment, and then you can demand an outrageous sum…”
Lysander replied, “You’re aware of my relationship with Josiah, so you should also know that asking you for money would be beneath me. I’d rather go directly to Josiah. I might even get more from him.”
Immediately, Leo pointed at her and said to the middle–aged couple behind him, “Do you two see that, Uncle Howard, Aunt Molly? Her true colors are showing, aren’t they? This woman is only after Mr. Guerra’s money!”
“If I were after money, Lysanne wouldn’t have even been able to step foot into the Guerra family.”

Leo said angrily. “The only reason Mr. Guerra ever took interest in you is because your name sounds the same as Lysanne’s. You’re nothing more than a stand–in! Now that Lysanne is back, you should have quietly left! Knowing full well that Lysanne is pregnant, you still yet cause trouble. You’re just jealous! You’re jealous. that Lysanne has been the recipient of Mr. Guerra’s unwavering love for ten years, and is about to bear his child.”
“Hah!” Lynn, having held back for quite some time, finally lost her temper. “Enough is enough. Dr. Thorne has been trying to be courteous to Lysanne because there are

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....
