Chapter 534 I Deserved It
“Jose…” Tiffany was about to argue further, but then she saw that Josiah had already packed the baby essentials, even pushing the baby stroller along with it.
With an emotionless gaze, Josiah looked at Tiffany and said, “So, you insist on staying at the hotel, don’t you?”
Dillon, protecting his daughter, said, “We are also customers. Since the hotel is open for business and I’ve brought Tiff with me, surely, Mr. Guerra, you can’t refuse our accommodation, right?”
Without saying much, Josiah turned around and instructed the service. staff, “Hold the child carefully and follow me.”
Upon seeing Josiah preparing to leave, Dillon couldn’t help but ask with a hint of unwillingness, “Mr. Guerra, are you leaving?”
Josiah was indifferent, uttering only a single sentence: “If you like it here, stay for a few more days. Just don’t bother me anymore.”
For a period following that, he was unlikely to return.
Josiah turned and walked out the door.
The service staff worked diligently, not asking a single unnecessary question. When the boss asked her to follow, she simply pushed the baby stroller and obeyed.
When Josiah took the service staff to the hospital, he first visited the ER department to have the wound on his head treated.
After that, he went to Molly’s ward, where Howard was peeling an apple for his wife by the bedside.
Howard wasn’t shocked to see Josiah unexpectedly drop by. He simply asked, “Josiah, what brings you here?”

Upon hearing the sound, Molly, on the bed, turned her head to look at Josiah. She smiled gently at him. Her complexion was a bit more rosy compared to the last time they met as she sat propped up against the bed’s headboard.
Josiah looked around, noticing no signs of recent visitors. He politely. greeted them and said, “It’s been a while since I last visited you, Mrs. Thorne. It seems like you’re recovering well. Mr. Thorne has taken good care of you.”
Molly’s smile widened a bit, yet her eyes couldn’t help but dart past like she was searching for someone.

Howard also asked, “Josiah, didn’t Lysa come with you? And this child-”
“A friend asked me to look after the child for a while.”
Howard patted his chest. “You gave me a scare.”
Josiah chuckled. “Are you allowed to eat apples now, Mrs. Thorne?”
Howard answered on Molly’s behalf, “The doctor just left and said she could try eating a little, but not too much. Ever since Lysa returned, Molly has been recovering well. Look, she can now sit up for a while and
sometimes even manage to eat some simple foods on her own. Maybe in a little while, we could even go back home.”
When he spoke of his wife then, he no longer carried the same worry as before. A faint smile graced his face.
With some effort, Molly said, “Staying in the hospital for too long can be quite draining. After all, there’s no place like home. Howard is getting older, and he doesn’t rest well in the hospital.”
Her relationship with Howard was profoundly deep, and they were widely recognized as a loving couple. After exchanging a few words, they shared a knowing smile. They were filled with hope for their future life together.
Josiah found himself reminiscing about his past with Lysander: a memory

that was then tinged with a bitter–sweet longing.
Howard and Molly, Maverick and Laura, and even his parents were all deeply in love.
His father passed away early, but in his memory, his parents were always deeply in love.
On the other hand, he brought the once harmonious marriage to a sorry
state.
Once Howard had finished slicing the apple into small pieces and placed them next to Molly, he finally remembered to invite Josiah to sit down. “Josiah, I’m sure you came to see me today for a reason. Please, take a seat, and we can talk at your own pace.”
“All right.”
Despite his best efforts to hide it, the injury on Josiah’s face was impossible. to conceal. Noticing this, Howard asked with a hint of concern, “That wound looks pretty serious. Did you run into some trouble? Is it related to Lysa?”
“No. I was at fault. I got what I deserved.”
Howard furrowed his brows. “What on earth happened?”
Josiah roughly recounted the events that had transpired in the hotel that day to Howard.

Josiah said, “Lysander grew up with them. The couple treats her as their own daughter. Knowing about this, they must have felt a sense of loss. Lysander is very respectful. She must be feeling quite upset as well.”
As Howard spoke, his gaze fell onto the baby stroller. “Is this your friend’s child?
Howard quickly suggested, “Let’s leave the child here. Since you’ve also brought someone to look after her, that’ll work.”

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....
