Chapter 439 Good Times Are Coming
Lysanne scoffed. “She’s just a spoiled little girl, eight years younger than Josiah. Without the Lanister family backing her up, do you really think they’d have anything in common?”

“Go ahead and play your games. I’ve been busy lately. I don’t have time to engage in your schemes. Whether you’re planning to sue or you’ve got other tricks up your sleeve, I’m ready for it.” Lysander would never accept the terms proposed by such a hypocritical person.
Today, Lysanne could cozy up to Lysander just to drive Tiffany away. Tomorrow, she could eliminate her without hesitation for her own gains.
Lysander simply wanted to observe from the sidelines with a detached indifference.
Lysanne saw her unwavering determination and played her trump card in a seemingly submissive manner. “Rest assured. My circumstances are different from before. As long as I can get Tiffany to leave Josiah, I won’t vie with you for the title of Mrs. Guerra.”
This was the funniest thing she had said all night.
Lysander couldn’t help but laugh, although it was more out of frustration than amusement. She retorted without hesitation, “Have you been binge–watching too many palace dramas lately, planning to apply their tactics to real life? Instead of wasting time on such thoughts, why don’t you spare some time to get your brain checked? Given our unfortunate connection, I’d be more than happy to recommend a good neurologist for you.”
Then, she paid no further attention to Lysanne, whose face had turned pale with anger. With a calm and composed demeanor, she bypassed the trees and headed back toward the lounge along the path she had come from.
The corridor up ahead was situated next to the pond. Given that Lysanne had pursued all the way to the restroom, it was likely that Tiffany was done taking photos and had returned.
As for Josiah, he was probably in the private dining room, accompanying her for dinner.
As Lysander pondered, he ended up encountering them in the corridor, just one turn away from the entrance of the hall. There was only one path here; circumventing them was out of the question.
Things really didn’t go as planned.
Lysander halted, attempting to blend into the night, but Josiah had already spotted her.
Josiah was already standing in a well–lit area, towering over Tiffany by more than a head’s length. At that moment, he easily glanced over her head, catching sight of Lysander, who was trying to avoid him. His gaze involuntarily turned cold.
Tiffany was oblivious to all this. She stood with her back to Lysander, acting coy toward Josiah. “Jose, could you
hold my bag for me? I need to go to the restroom to touch up my makeup. I accidentally smudged my foundation while taking pictures earlier. I’ll be right back.”
Josiah certainly acted the part of the big brother in front of her, expressing helplessly, “All right. I’ll wait for you at the door.”
“I knew you were the best!” Tiffany exclaimed, pulling out a compact makeup bag from her purse. She

playful expression on her face. “Oh, Lysa, are you here for a meal too?”
“Yes,” Lysander replied flatly.

Tiffany exuded an air of carefree joy, typical of girls her age. With enthusiasm, she asked, “Which private room are you in? How about we join together?”
Perhaps only someone like her, who was utterly ignorant of Lysander and Josiah’s past, would make such a
remark,
Lysander felt compelled to reply. “No thanks. I’m with a friend.”
Tiffany did not doubt this as she expressed her regret. “That’s truly a pity. I was hoping to have a good chat with you. How about we go shopping together next time when you’re free? I know a great boutique. Their hair accessories are particularly good for photos.”
Lysander wasn’t in the mood, nor did she want to get involved with anyone from Josiah’s circle again. So, she simply brushed it off with a nonchalant, “Maybe next time.”
Under normal circumstances, this was merely a polite platitude.
Believing it to be true. Tiffany cheerfully went off to touch up her makeup.
Lysander steeled herself and walked a distance away from the direction of the restroom. Standing a few steps away from Josiah, she asked, “Are you serious about Ms. Lanister?”
The bag that Josiah held in his hand had a warm hue. Adorned with adorable trinkets, it gave the same impression as Tiffany’s.
A girl as innocent and charming as her, who held no defenses against anyone, should not have become a pawn in the disputes of others.
Lysander placed more emphasis on her next words. “If you’re truly planning to be with her, then limit your interactions with Lysanne. I won’t say anything more than necessary.”
Josiah listened with furrowed brows. “On what grounds are you saying all this to me? Who I choose to be with is my personal affair. Currently, neither of the women has any objections, so what gives you the right
However, Lysander didn’t grant his wish. She sighed lightly and said, “I didn’t intend to interfere with your business, I just don’t want to see innocent people get hurt. Since they don’t mind and you don’t care, just consider me as meddling in affairs that aren’t my busness.”
She had said all that needed to be said, so the rest was left to fate.

Josiah saw an appropriate level of surprise on her face. Beyond that, there was no trace of unnecessary emotion. His heart immediately sank, and he hoarsely said, “It should be happening soon.”
Just as Lysander was about to respond to him, the phone she carried on her rang. She fook it out and said, “Let me take this call”

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....
