Chapter 19 Josiah, I Don’t Want To See You Again.
Josiah took two slow steps forward, approaching her, his gaze fixed on the blood-red tissue in her hand. He reached out his hand, his Adam’s apple rolling up and down with difficulty. “C-can I touch it?”
Lysander nodded slightly.
Perhaps because the wind outside was too cold today, Josiah’s hand was shaking violently. It wasn’t just his hand, as his whole body was trembling violently, the veins on the back of his hand bulging like twisted roots as if they were about to burst through the skin in the next second. However, his movements were careful, filled with guilt, regret, and pain.
Lysander watched him coldly the whole time, watching his eyes turn redder, and his teeth clench tighter until finally, his trembling hand was almost out of control. He had to use his other hand to his wrist tightly as he gently touched the tissue. She then quickly closed her palm and took it back.
Josiah seemed to have just woken up from a nightmare as if he had been in a dream.
“Mr. Guerra.”

“Mr. Guerra.”
Josiah suddenly realized that Lysander was calling him Mr. Guerra. She had even changed the way she addressed him.
He frowned in pain and asked in a deep voice, “Lysander, must it go this way?”
“How else, then?”
“You should have told me earlier. If I had known that you were already pregnant with our child, t would have-
“You won’t.” Lysander shook her head indifferently. “Mr. Guerra, I am also my own person. I don’t to be someone’s substitute for the rest of my life.”

him, why haven’t you told me?”
She smiled slightly. “Then let me ask you. If I had told you earlier, would you have given up being with Lysanne for this child?”
Josiah clenched his teeth. “I am not incapable of raising my own child!”
“You still haven’t directly answered my question. Why are you avoiding it?”
He was quiet.
“Are you thinking that you can reunite with your childhood sweetheart while letting me give birth to this child? But have you ever thought about the child? When this child grows up and asks me why their dad’s wife has a similar name as me, how should I answer? Because their dad don’t really love their

mom and she is just a substitute for Aunt Lysanne, is that it?”
He still didn’t answer.
“When the child needs their father, he will be admiring the stars and moon with another woman. When they want their father’s embrace, he may be already holding a younger brother born to another woman. When they grow up, and his brother grows up too, their father will take the child’s brother and the mother to amusement parks, aquariums, and foreign trips-anywhere the boy wants to go. But what about the child? How sad will they feel when they see it? Have you ever thought about that?”

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....
