Chapter 501 I Wanted You To Care About Me
Lysander was very much puzzled.
Is she talking about Tiffany?
“Ms. Thorne, does my perfume smell good?”
Lysander wasn’t sure why Amelia suddenly brought that up. “I don’t really know much about perfumes.”
“This perfume is known as Dawn after Sex: Mr. Guerra thinks it’s too heavy and doesn’t smell good, but I rather like it. What do you think?”
Ah, so this is the legendary Dawn after Sex.
“It’s alright, I guess,” Lysander replied.
“It seems you both have similar tastes, neither liking this smell.”
*Due to my profession, I’m not really accustomed to perfumes,” Lysander admitted.
“Tsk–tsk, what a shame. Anyway, it seems you weren’t surprised by this explicit name, Dr. Thorne? I’d thought you’d be uncomfortable with it.” Amelia watched her with intrigue,
Lysander cleared her throat. “I heard Josiah mentioning it once previously.”
Amelia’s eyes instantly lit up. “I understand now.”
What does she understand?
Amelia leaned in closer to her, whispering, “I referred to the perfume, while he referred to the explicit meaning, right?”
Lysander was struck speechless.
“Haha… Mr. Guerra is impressive, proactive much.”
Seeing the teasing expression on Amelia’s face, Lysander couldn’t help but feel compelled to explain, saying, That day-”
Before she could finish speaking. Amelia had already lifted a finger to her lips and shushed her.
She pointed behind Lysander and shot her a teasing wink. “Someone’s here to look for you.”
When Lysander looked back, she saw the hurried figure of Josiah approaching.
The two of them happened to lock eyes on the cobblestone path.
Josiah had the coat he brought for Lysander draped over his arm. Seeing her standing there while wearing so little, he didn’t think twice before rushing over to her, anxiously asking, “Why did you come all the way here?”
As he spoke, he draped the coat securely over her shoulders.

Chapter 501 I Wanted You To Care About Me
Josiah moved closer to her with a hint of worry, saying, “If you’re uncomfortable being so close to me, I can move to a room further away. It’s late, so you shouldn’t wander around.”
Lysander flashed him a faint smile. “This place is only so big. Even if I wanted to run, there’s nowhere to
go.”
“I just went to your room to bring you dinner. When I didn’t you there, I thought…”
“What did you think?”
Josiah let out a sigh. “Have you forgotten what happened at the Everhart residence? It was precisely because of my momentary carelessness, thinking that the Everhart residence was absolutely safe, that led to you being taken.”
“This is your territory. Who would dare to make a move on your turf, Mr. Guerra? But the people here are quite interesting.” Lysander commented.
Josiah immediately grew anxious. “Did you encounter anyone strange?”
His mind raced, swiftly running through all the possible scenarios. However, the answer from Lysander in the end was still a surprise to him. “No, I didn’t encounter anyone strange. I just ran into that legendary Amelia.”“”
“Amelia is here too?” Josiah was evidently unaware of it, somewhat surprised.
Lysander casually strolled back, her breathing still steady and even as she replied, “Yes. We’ve even chatted for quite a while.”
At that, Josiah couldn’t remain impassive anymore. “What did she tell you?”
His voice faltered, revealing a desire to probe deeper but fearful of being noticed by Lysander. Hearing that, she couldn’t help but laugh. “Mr. Guerra, are you so afraid of me running into Amelia? Or is it that you have something to hide, which is why you’re worried?”
Josiah sighed helplessly. “What do I have to worry about? I’m just afraid you might misunderstand. I haven’t even cleared my name for the previous accusations. If another one comes up, you’ll never believe me anymore, no matter what I say.”
Gentling his voice, he continued, Regardless of what you and Amelia chatted about, I’m not afraid because I have nothing to do with her. That time at Skywatch, I only wanted you to see me with her. I wanted you To care about me.
“That was what she said too.”
“We talked about how you heroically saved her, rescuing her from a dire situation and giving her a new lease on life, an unparalleled hero.”

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....
