Chapter 408 A Favor
Daphne had been best friends with Lysander for two decades. Thus, upon hearing those words, Daphne actually found herself calming down.
The look in Priscilla’s eyes flickered as she said, “Actually, this isn’t too bad.”
Lysander smiled, and Priscilla bashfully stuck out her tongue. “I’m just talking nonsense, Lysander.”
“No, you’re right,” affirmed Lysander.
Daphne stroked her chin, lost in thought for a moment. “Lysander, has Josiah really given up pursuing you for so long?”
after
Lysander gazed at the distant silhouette of a man and a woman standing side by side and nodded slightly. “From the looks of it, it should be.”
“You’ve been ruthless with your words before, so why did he suddenly give up this time?”
Actually, Lysander hadn’t completely figured out why that was.
However, it didn’t really matter to her. Men and women were entirely different creatures, and she couldn’t be bothered to delve into his mental processes any further.
However, what Priscilla said was indeed quite true and Lysander thought perhaps that ending was for the
best.
too well.
From the moment she resolved to terminate her pregnancy, she understood it all too
The outcome of her relationship with Josiah had already been determined.
As for who Josiah ended up with afterward, that was no longer something she needed to worry about.
From Josiah’s perspective, the past was unchangeable, and his childhood friend had already turned back. His choice to be with Lysanne was simply a natural human response.
Daphne patted Lysander on the shoulder. “Would you like to come over for dinner at my place tonight? My dad heard you’re back, and he’d like to meet you.”
“He wants to meet me?” asked Lysander.
“Yes.”
“Is it because of that matter with Harry?”
Daphne pouted. “Perhaps my father still feels guilty toward you.”
Lysander shook her head. “It’s not that I don’t want to go. Michelle is coming home tonight, and I’ve already promised to spend time with her.”
“No worries. Why don’t you bring your family along? Your parents know me anyway. Consider it as a welcome home party for you.”
After some thought, Lysander called her family.

Chapter 408 A Favor
In the afternoon, when Howard came to take over the shift, Lysander had a word with him.
There was a hint of envy in Howard’s eyes, but his words were somewhat humble. “That’s good. Since you’re back from Stounia, you should spend more time with them. This meal sounds lovely. Once your mother’s health improves, we’ll host a welcome home party for you, too. Daphine, you and your father must come when the time comes as well.”
Daphne was unsure about Lysander’s stance toward her biological parentt, so she could only respond with a noncommittal smile, “Sure, we’ll see if we have the time, and if we do, we’ll definitely go
Daphne was behind the wheel, driving home with Lysander. They picked up Maverick and Laura, along with Michelle, who had just returned from university.
Michelle had tanned significantly and lost some weight as well, yet her eyes remained sparklingly bright.
Glancing at Michelle through the rearview mirror, Lysander chuckled lightly. “So, how’s life as a university
student?”
Michelle pouted. “It’s okay. Just so–so. Zachary said that once I’m in university, things will get easier, yet I feel even more exhausted than when I was in high school.”
Lysander asked, “Has Zachary contacted you recently?”
“He did, but not frequently, as his job seemed to keep him quite busy.”
“All right.”
“By the way, Zachary was asking about you.”
“It was just the usual stuff, you know. He asked how you’ve been lately, if you’ve been busy with work. I mentioned that you went to Stounia, and he seemed quite surprised.”
Lysander nodded. “Zachary is busy with work right now. To disturb him too much.”
Lysander said, “Either is fine.”
Lysander turned to her parents and asked, “Mom, Dad, would you prefer Ecronian or Epean cuisine?”
Frankly, middle–aged people tend to have well–established preferences, and they certainly favor Ecronian cuisine. However, upon hearing that they would need to take a detour, Maverick said, “Let’s just go to whichever is nearer. If we turn around, we’ll have to get on the overpass, and there’s bound to be traffic at

The readers' comments on the novel: The Charming Ex-Wife (Lysander and Josiah)
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....
