Chapter 407 Separate Ways
Eleanor hurried over, and soon, her joyous voice could be heard. “Mr. Guerra! You’re back! Come, the food has just been served. Let me get you a set of utensils!”
Josiah crossed the living room. Lysander, keeping her gaze lowered, could still sense his eyes on her.
However, they didn’t stay on her for too long.
“Mom, are you feeling better now?” asked Josiah.
“I’m fine,” Susan gestured to the spot next to her. “Have you eaten?”
“Not yet.
“That’s perfect. Come sit down and let’s eat together.”
Josiah pulled out a chair and sat down on the other side of Susan, perfectly facing Lysander.
However, neither of them said a word to each other.
Susan explained. “Lysander came to visit me today, so she stayed to have dinner with me.”
Josiah didn’t even lift his head. He simply hummed in acknowledgment. “Mom, after dinner, could you ask Eleanor to pack your things? I’ve bought you a new house. You’ll be moving there soon.
Susan was somewhat taken aback. “Why is that?”
“Houses made of wood are quite prone to catching fire in the winter, making them somewhat unsafe. Moreover, the Thome manor next door also needs to carry out some repairs, which will inevitably cause a considerable amount of noise during the construction. Given that you already have trouble sleeping, it might be best to find another place to stay.”
After hearing that, Susan found it reasonable and asked, “Where am I moving to, then?”
“At my area. I bought the house next door as well.”
“Your apartment?”
“Yes. It may not be that large, but it’s sufficient for you, Eleanor, and the chef to live in.”
Susan glanced at Lysander, letting out a soft chuckle. “That works, too. After you finish work, you can come home for dinner.”
“Okay.”
When a mother and her child were having a discussion, it was not appropriate for outsiders to be present.
Thus, Lysander said, “Madam Susan, I’ve finished eating. It’s time for me to head to the hospital for my shift change. Thank you for your hospitality. After I consult with the cardiologist, I will send you the dosage. From then on, you can take your medicine according to the new dosage.”
Susan stood up. “You haven’t eaten much, though. Why don’t you have a little more?”

“No need to rush. Josiah, could you give Lysander a ride? It’s hard to get a cab around here..
Lysander remarked, “It’s quite easy to get around. Calling Uber is very convenient now”
Susan still insisted. “Josiah!”
Josiah dabbed at the corner of his mouth with a napkin, then slowly rose to his feet. “I’ll walk you out?
“No need.” Lysander swiftly departed from the Guerra family’s old house
Indeed, trying to hail a cab there was quite a challenge due to its remote location. It was only after she added an extra tip of twenty that an Uber driver finally accepted the request
However, the journey was quite long. The system alerted her that she would have to wait for fifteen minutes.
Lysander simply followed the small path outside the mansion, strolling leisurely as she waited.
During that time, Michelle gave her a call.
She must have heard from their parents that Lysander had returned to the country. As such, she was thrilled at the thought of seeing Lysander and announced she would be coming home that very night.
After hanging up the phone, Lysander wanted to check where the Uber driver was. However, despite refreshing several times, the location just wouldn’t update.
The page displayed two large words: Request Canceled
Lysander frowned as she dialed the number of the Uber driver. The driver on the other end sounded somewhat apologetic. “Your location is just too far away. The distance I have to cover without a fare is too much. I have to consider my costs, you see. Just then. I got a closer request and I accepted it. I’m really
sorry.”
Lysander said. “If you had mentioned it earlier, I could have offered more money”
“I’ve already gone far away now. I’m sorry.”
Left with no other choice, Lysander had to hang up the phone.
She called for another car and even raised the tip to fifty, but no one accepted her request.
Beep! Beep!
The honk of a car behind her gave her quite a startle.
The car window of a Porsche glistening in gold rolled down, revealing the side profile of Josiah. “Couldn’t catch a cab?”
“It’s almost here,” replied Lysander.
The car window Pradually rose the golden Porsche
neine mared and it quickly sned away

“Oh, Madam Susan kept urging him and hoping he could make it in time to drive you to your destination.”
“That’s good,” said Howard. “I’m truly grateful for your two friends. Priscilla has been bringing soup every day, and Daphne has been keeping us company all this time.”
Lysander said with a smile, “I’m already touched that you could come. How about I treat you to a meal another day?”

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....
