The Charming Ex-Wife (Lysander and Josiah) novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174 As Siblings

Laura comforted her, The capable ones often have to work the hardest. It’s a sign that the leadership values. Zach highly.” 

Oh, I hope that’s the case, but I won’t hide it from you, Laura. You understand how it is with stateowned enterprises, where seniority rules. It sounds prestigious when you talk about it, but in reality, it’s not much. easier than private companies. The only benefits are a decent salary and job stability. Otherwise, it can be quite tough.” 

The job is steady and the pay is decent, which is already quite good. Zach has always been outstanding since he was a child. He’s still young now, so once he gradually gains more experience, life will get better in the future.” 

Camila held Laura’s hand, their bond as close as sisters. You’re right. I don’t expect him to reach high heights. As mothers, all we really wish for is our children to lead safe and peaceful lives, don’t you agree?” 

Laura understood her meaning all too well, yet her smile was somewhat forced. I get what you’re saying. butwe should take the children’s feelings into account when it comes to this kind of matter.” 

I know. I’m just keeping you in the loop. As long as you have no objections, we can let things unfold naturally. If things work out, that would be great. If not, they can simply continue as siblings. Either way, things between us will remain as they always have been.” 

Upon hearing these words, Laura finally felt a sense of relief

Camila laughed heartily. It seems I’ve truly startled you two today, haven’t I?” 

Laura held her hand to her heart, remaining silent. It was Maverick who spoke up. It is indeed unexpected. Zach never hinted at it before.” 

Camila wore an exasperated expression. He’s always been a reserved person. He wanted to say something. but 

your Lysander is such an independent spirit, always striving on her own in her studies and career. He was afraid that speaking up might disturb her, so he kept it all to himself, thinking there would be another chance in the future. Who would have thought that Lysander would suddenly get married…” 

Whenever this incident was brought up, Maverick’s brows would furrow deeply. Yes, I shouldn’t have agreed so quickly back then.” 

Camila went on, I later heard that Lysander’s partner was from a distinguished family, even the CEO of a company. Upon hearing this, Zachary gave up immediately. How could ordinary people like us possibly compete with someone from a publicly listed corporation?” 

Maverick disagreed, I’ve never been impressed by these listed companies. No matter how large a company is, what does it really matter? When it comes to a couple’s life, it’s better if both are on the same level. It allows them to support and take care of each other more effectively.” 

Exactly!Camila exclaimed excitedly, clapping her hands together. We’re on the me page. I’ve seen so many news stories on TV about female celebrities marrying into wealthy families and not having the best lives. Maverick, Laura, we’ve been friends for so many years. I know you two aren’t the type to chase after wealth and status. You just want your children to be happy.” 

Maverick hesitated a bit and replied, Butthis would be Lysander’s second marriage, whereas it would be Zach’s first” 

The Charming ExWife 

Mom, Mrs. Thorne, what were you all chatting about that made you so happy?” 

Camila gave him a light smack. Where on earth did you disappear to? Lysander is already back. You to find her but ended up getting lost yourself?” 

went out 

Zachary glanced at Lysander, smiling as he kept the earlier incident a secret. My bad, my bad. I bumped into a waiter right at the entrance and ended up spilling soup all over my pants. I just went to the restroom to clean up

Hot soup? Are you okay? Did it scald you?”
