Chapter 545 Birds Of The Same Feather
Lysander quickly realized this and held back Maverick, who was about to chase the people away. She gently said, “Dad, I’m afraid this matter isn’t as simple as it seems. I went to the resort purely for work purposes. You’ve seen it yourself too. Now that I think about it, there are many reasons to be suspicious.”
This time, Maverick didn’t feel as if she was defending Josiah. Instead, he fell into deep thought. “Are you suggesting that I’ve been manipulated by others? But this matter is absolutely true. Josiah has indeed deceived you, even using someone else’s child to fool you!”
Laura was also filled with self–reproach as she tried to reason. “I warned you before you left to always clarify things first. I told you to call Lysa first to understand the situation, but you didn’t listen. You almost caused trouble for our daughter again.”
“Mom, don’t worry. I know you all mean well,” Lysander assured her, not blaming her parents for their actions.
Josiah added, “Mr. and Mrs. Thorne, I’ll handle this. No matter who is behind this, I won’t let those who are trying to hurt Lysander go unpunished.”
His gaze subtly darkened.
Some people can’t be tolerated any further.
Maverick’s attitude toward Josiah was still one of disdain. “It’s rare to hear you say something sensible!”
Upon hearing his father’s softened tone, Lysander felt a bit relieved. She then inquired, “Dad, can you try to recall, besides Lysanne, was there anyone else who seemed suspicious around the hospital at that time? They wouldn’t necessarily have to barge into the ward, even observing from outside counts.”
Maverick and Laura racked their brains as they began to recall the situation then.
Michelle was lying in the hospital bed. Her vision had been considerably limited the day before, but she tried her best to communicate. “That horrible woman kept badmouthing you. Dad couldn’t stand it anymore and started arguing with her, causing quite a commotion…”
Their family always had a knack for uniting against a common enemy.
In the end, Maverick recalled something significant. “I remember now, Lysanne did come alone to cause trouble. That is true. But after she was chased away by the hospital security, I couldn’t swallow my anger. I went after her, only to find her talking with someone else.”
Lysander’s eyes lit up.
“Who?”
“However, that girl seemed pretty well–behaved and innocent. She might just be an unrelated individual, likely having nothing to do with her.”
A sense of heaviness settled in Lysander’s heart.
A sweet, innocent girl… just as expected.
“I remember the girl who was talking to Lysander looked particularly young. In fact, she appeared much younger than you. She was petite and frail. At first glance, she seemed about the same age as your sister. Lysanne seemed quite familiar with her, and they chatted at the door for quite a while. That girl was quite

was almost in tears.”
An image of Tiffany immediately surfaced in Lysander’s mind. By reflex, she wanted to ask Josiah about it, but just as she was about to, he happened to look her way.
Unexpectedly, their eyes met.
Josiah blurted, “Tiffany.”
Before Lysander could utter a word, Maverick stepped forward, positioning himself between them. He effectively cut off any chance of Josiah continuing the conversation with Lysander. He questioned in a low, stern voice, “Josiah, from the looks of it, you seem to know the girl who was chatting with Lysanne, don’t you?”
Josiah’s expression was complicated. “Yes.”
Maverick suddenly slapped his forehead. “I remember now who that young lady is now. Isn’t she the one we ran into at the hotel today? The one surnamed Lanister, is she also one of your mistresses?”
Josiah shook his head. “No, she isn’t.”
Michelle exclaimed, “I remember now! I was wondering why that girl looked so familiar. I saw her on the news on TV. She’s your fiancée, isn’t she, Josiah?”
Maverick turned around and reprimanded her, “Why are you being so familiar with him?”
Michelle tucked her neck in. “I misspoke, it… it should be Mr. Guerra.”
Maverick, outraged, pointed accusingly at Josiah and reprimanded, “Isn’t it enough that you’ve caused such a huge problem for Lysa? Now you’ve also involved your fiancée. Are you not going to stop until you’ve completely ruined her?”
With utmost seriousness, Josiah swore, “I no longer have a fiancée. I’ve made the announcement. I have no ties with her anymore.”
Maverick didn’t believe it for a second. “Birds of the same feather flock together. Your fiancée is hanging out with Lysanne, so she can’t be any good either!”
Only after he had finished cursing did his anger slightly subside.
Josiah knew he was in the wrong. He felt so guilty that he could only bite the bullet and listen.
Lysander remained unaffected by the chaos, even managing to calmly analyze the situation. “Howard’s wife is being treated in this hospital, so it’s understandable that Lysanne would be here. But it doesn’t seem like the Lanister family has any patients to visit. What reason does Tiffany have to be here?”
Josiah nodded. “She came with Lysander.”
Perhaps, she was the one who instigated Lysanne to come.
Maverick was still quite upset. “From what you’re saying, my daughter had already noticed that there was something off about your fiancée. Yet, you couldn’t even see that. How sincere can you really be?”
Lysander composed herself. “Dad, I only realized this in the past few days too, but I assure you it’s the absolute truth.”

Maverick’s attitude was quite hypocritical, his words for her were only of praise. “Not bad, you’ve learned et never easily trust from your mistakes. From now on, you anyone, especially when it comes to anyone related to this jerk!”

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....
