The Charming Ex-Wife (Lysander and Josiah) novel Chapter 172

Chapter 172 Not To The Point Of Hatred 

The color drained from Josiah’s face almost immediately

Lysander couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh. Indeed, even the most gentle and chivalrous man would become enraged when their sexual prowess was brought into question

Lysander, you still hate me, don’t you.” 

It’s not to the point of hate; at most, it’s just annoyance.” 

I had no intention to intrude on your life during this period.” 

Who would want their exhusband constantly following them around after a divorce? This feeling of being watched is extremely unpleasant.” 

Josiah took a deep breath. I just wanted to see if you’re doing well.” 

I’m doing great. My parents shower me with love, my little sister adores me, my job is going smoothly, and I get along well with both my boss and colleagues. You need to stop assuming that I’m living in misery without you, okay? Even without you, the world still turns, I still go to work, and life goes on. I’m not pitiful at all and don’t need any extra care. I’ve simply returned to my original life, do you understand?”

Lysander glanced at him for all of two seconds, then bypassed him and immediately exited the storeroom

Inside, it was cold and gloomily dark, separated only by a single door from the outside world where it was lively and bustling with activity

This Hestryan cuisine restaurant was not particularly large. In fact, in a bustling city like Harborbrook, it wasn’t the kind of place that most families would choose for a wedding banquet due to its lack of prestige

The entire hall only contained roughly a dozen tables, yet it subtly appeared to be divided into several groups

On the left, the group donned in military attire was likely gathered for a veteran’s reunion. To the right, the cluster in school uniforms was probably having a graduation party. Further off was Camila’s birthday party

Thus, there were only a few tables left for guests of Josiah and Lysanne’s engagement party
