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 ex–husband 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?”
Josiah couldn’t find the words to respond.
“Have you finished defending yourself? If so, I’m leaving.”
Josiah grasped her wrist and said, “Lysander, may I ask one final question?”
Lysander withdrew her wrist before asking, “What is it?”
“Why on earth did you do… that… for him when you clearly don’t even like him?”
Lysander chuckled. “So, after all this talk, this is what you’ve been dwelling on. Do you feel shortchanged because I didn’t do the same for you during those three years?”
“No, that’s not it! I just want to understand. If you don’t like him, why would you go to such lengths for him? I don’t get it.”
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.

Through the vague silhouettes of people, she spotted familiar faces.
Lysanne’s mother was seated in a wheelchair, with her father holding a glass of wine high in a toast. They
facing Susan, their demeanor ingratiating, even bordering on subservience.

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....
