Chapter 418 In What Position
“Why? Did they have a disagreement?” someone asked.
Aiden shot him a glance. “Do you even use the internet?”
“I do.”
“Didn’t
u see the news while back?
“What news?
Aiden pursed his lips, waving his hand in annoyance. “Forget it. If you haven’t seen it, then don’t bother. It’s irritating news.”
The guy’s curiosity was piqued, and he turned to ask his buddies what it was about.
However, everyone seemed reluctant to elaborate further, looking away as if it were some taboo subject.
Only one of them covered his mouth with his hand and whispered something into the guy’s ear.
The guy was immediately taken aback. “A dark–skinned kid? Doesn’t that mean Josiah… holy sh*t!”
“Would you keep it down?”
Aiden raised his voice to stop them. “Enough, let’s drop this topic. From now on, keep your mouths shut, got it?”
“Don’t worry, we get it. I see. That’s why Josiah has been out partying these few days. I was wondering why he suddenly changed his lifestyle after being virtuous and abstinent for over twenty years.”
Aiden scoffed, “You don’t know a thing, so just shut up! Josiah’s affair is none of your business-
He was cut off mid–sentence upon catching sight of Lysander standing behind him out of the corner of his eye while shaking his head. His complexion changed dramatically, and he stiffened before turning around. “You… Why are you here?”
Aiden’s voice was loud, and everyone present heard him–including Josiah and the girl who was learning how to play pool.
Josiah’s gaze barely lingered on Lysander before swiftly moving away, as if he didn’t know her at all. He continued tutoring the girl. “Your strike was a bit off earlier. You need to hit the center of the cue ball, like
this-”
The cue ball was struck, colliding with the black eight–ball, which then sank precisely into the corner. pocket.
The girl looked at him with eyes full of admiration. “You’re amazing!”
Josiah chuckled, handing her the pool cue. “Your turn to give it a shot.
“All right, I’ll try again.”
However, her second attempt was
still off the mark, failing to even
hit the cue ball.

Aiden sobered up considerably and stood up straight, clearing his throat to mask his embarrassment. He then asked Lysander. “Did you come here to play pool or to find someone?”
Lysander seemed indifferent. “I’m here to see Josiah. There’s something I need to discuss with him.”
“Oh, you’re here for Josiah… Um…” Aiden drew out his words, looking at Josiah, unsure what to do.
He was fully aware of everything that transpired between these two, hoping he wouldn’t get caught in the
crossfire.
However, Josiah seemed oblivious to the exchange between Aiden and Lysander. He didn’t even lift his head as he spoke to the girl. “Try again.”
The girl felt a bit embarrassed. “How about you go about your business? I’ll go practice on another pool
table.
“What’s the matter? Don’t you want to learn from me?”
The girl’s attention was instantly drawn back by his gentle tone. “I do.”
Josiah pointed at the center of the white ball. “Look, aim here.”
The atmosphere fell eerily silent, with only the crisp sound of the cue striking the balls filling the air.
Josiah clearly didn’t want to have anything to do with Lysander, so the others dared not say a word either. They could only exchange glances, hoping for someone to break the awkward silence.
Zane came over to mediate. “Josiah is busy at the moment. Why don’t you go and take a break in the booth?”
“That won’t be necessary” I sander renlied with a fondly ver firm demeanor declining his kind offer “Til
just have a quick chat with Josiah, and then I’ll be on my way. I won’t take up too much of his time.”

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....
