Chapter 406 Visiting Susan
After Ines left, the house was momentarily engulfed in silence.
Gazing at the table full of food that had already gone cold, Laura let out a sigh. “I’ll go heat up the food.”
Maverick was about to reach for his cigarette again when Lysander grabbed his hand. “Dad, stop smoking
Maverick scoffed, “Guerni Group?“.
A sense of heaviness settled in Lysander’s heart, but she remained silent.
“I was just wondering, who would want to use that remote area in our residential compound? Turns out it was Josiah Lysa, Josiah wants to demolish the place, and he’s relocating us to a place not far from your hospital. Is this because of you?”
Lysander lowered her eyes. “I guess so.”
“Is he still bothering you?”
“He used to.”
“So now, he suddenly stopped the demolition and brought in people from another company. Has he given up, then?”
Lysander recalled their conversation in the hospital stairwell and nodded.
With a flick, the lighter burst into flame..
Before Lysander could intervene, Maverick lit up a cigarette and held it between his lips. “I promise you, this is the last one.”
Laura reheated the food once more, and everyone had a bit to cat.
However, by the end of the meal, not much of the food had been touched.
Laura took her daughter’s hand. “How about this? Let’s not worry about buying a house. The one we’re renting now is quite nice, and it wouldn’t be bad to continue renting. Plus, if we decide not to buy a house, we should receive some compensation, right? Even though it might not be a lot, you can take it for now. When you get married, it can be used to make a down payment with your future husband.”
Maverick remained silent, continually smoking his cigarette.
Laura gave Maverick a meaningful look. “Maverick, say something.”
Maverick sighed. “Your mom does have a point. If it really comes to it, we can just continue renting. It’s not the end of the world.”
At night, Lysander stayed at home.
The rented apartment only consisted of two bedrooms and a living room. Since Michelle was living on campus and not at home, she slept in Michelle’s room.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, Howard sent her a message: Lysa, did you have a fight with Josiah?

Chapter 406 Visiting Susan
After some thought. Lysander responded: No.
Howard: Then why hasn’t he been answering my calls?
Lysander: Perhaps he’s busy. Is there something you need?

Howard; it’s nothing serious. I’m just a bit concerned about Josiah’s mother and wanted to inquire about her situation
Lysander: With Josiah around, Madam Susan should be well taken care of.
Howard: I know. I’m sure I can count on Josiah to do the right thing. Given our long–standing relationship between the two families, it’s only right that I should pay a visit too. But I’m tied up and can’t make it. Could you possibly spare some time to go there tomorrow?
Lysander had just spoken harshly to Josial. It was clearly not the best time for her to show concern for his mother.
She got in touch with Eleanor instead.
The last time when Susan had a sudden bout of high blood pressure, she and Eleanor had exchanged phone numbers. This was so that if anything were to happen to Susan in the future, she could get in touch. with her quickly.
It came in handy at that moment.
Upon hearing of her impending visit, Eleanor was elated. “Oh, wonderful! Madam Susan would surely be thrilled to see you.”
“Eleanor. Josiah… will not be home tomorrow, right?”
Eleanor was taken aback. “Mrs. Guerra, aren’t you coming with Mr. Guerra?”
“Did anything happen between you two? Are you upset with each other? I get it. Did Ms. Lysanne from next door say something again? Listen to me, Mrs. Guerra, Mr. Guerra really has no connection with her anymore. If he did something to upset you, come back and tell Madam Susan. She will talk to him…
At that very moment, Josiah was not at home.
Moreover, it was unlikely that he would return the next day, given that Eleanor was completely unaware.
Susan appeared to be in good spirits. “I wasn’t burned. The fire was mainly next door. It didn’t reach our side. But the blaze was truly intense quite a frighter sight to behold.”

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....
