The Charming ExWife 

Chapter 601 Rumors And Gossips 

Finished 

Upon noticing that she was wavering and that there was a chance, Howard felt a wave of joy wash over him, though he kept his happiness hidden from her. Cheerfully, he said, You go ahead and focus on your work. I’ll handle things here. Since both families are still at the hospital, I’ll go and have a good talk with them. Maverick may have a temper, but he’s clearly a straightforward and decent man. As long as we approach him right, he won’t be that hard to communicate with. Don’t worry too much about it.” 

All right then. If he says anything harsh, please bear with him,” Lysander said as she continued to be 

courteous

Howard, eager to ensure she didn’t change her mind, quickly said, There’s nothing to worry about. That’s settled then. You go do what you need to do.” 

Without letting Lysander hesitate further, he promptly ended the call

After listening to the busy tone for a moment, Lysander let out a long sigh before placing her phone back where it was

Nonetheless, faced with a stack of work files piled higher than her open laptop, she had no choice but to bury herself in her work

With the aid of the capable Monica, her work efficiency had significantly improved compared to the previous days, and she managed to finish everything before the end of the workday

Lysander didn’t work overtime. Instead, she picked up her bag and said goodbye to Monica, I have some matters to take care of tonight, so I’ll have to bring the remaining work home.” 

Monica, as if anticipating this, said, What’s most crucial for you now is worklife balance. If you have personal matters, it’s okay to leave the work for later. Rest well tonight, and you’ll likely be more efficient 

tomorrow.” 

This statement sounded somewhat familiar to Lysander

However, Lysander didn’t have the time to think too deeply about it. After expressing her thanks, she left the office. On her way out, she encountered several people from the company, but only a few took the initiative to greet her

Everyone worked in the same office building, so naturally, office gossip spread particularly quickly within the company

What was whispered among the 

women in the restroom was undoubtedly known to others. By now, the stories had likely become even more exaggerated

Under curious and gossiping gazes, Lysander walked into the elevator calmly, descending to the lobby on the first floor as if nothing had happened

Someone quietly said to their colleague, Ms. Thorne just started a few days ago and is already leaving on time. It must be nice to have someone backing you up, but” 

Their words trailed off as Lysander walked away, and she could easily guess the rumors that would follow

She walked straight ahead without glancing around, only pausing briefly at the punch card machine to clock out like the other employees. Just like any other employee, she methodically clocked out for the day

The reception desk seemed unusually empty, not a single person was there to greet visitors

Making a mental note to address this with the logistics department the next day, she took a few steps forward and saw the employees who should have been at the reception desk hiding behind a partition

These individuals were all young ladies, uniformly tall and attractive, serving as the very face of the company

At the moment, they were all strategically positioned in a corner where they had a clear view of the street outside. They were gazing at a car parked by the curb, engaged in hushed whispers about something 

Lysander followed their gazes, her expression becoming increasingly complex

She might not recognize everyone in the company, but she knew that car by the curb all too well

That morning, she had been dropped off in a RollsRoyce Cullinan

Why had it changed back to the familiar white Cayenne

Quietly moving closer to the partition, Lysander took out her phone, intending to message Josiah, asking him not to park so close

As she drew near, she overheard the receptionistsconversation clearly

That’s Mr. Guerra’s car, isn’t it? I thought he wouldn’t come by anymore, but here he is again after standing up for someone during a meeting.” 

He and Ms. Thorne must have something going on between them. Maybe the rumors are true.” 

Are you referring to the fiancée rumor or the mistress rumor?” 

Who knows? But he’s been parked out there for so long without coming in or leaving. He must be waiting 

for someone

At a loss, Lysander stopped typing

She hadn’t expected that even receptionists who held entrylevel positions in the company would. recognize Josiah’s car. It was probably too late to warn him now

The influence of Josiah within Thorne Constructions and Energies was indeed substantial

Checking the time, Lysander pondered whether to call the new driver, Skylar. Just as she lifted her gaze toward the main entrance while considering if she could try to leave from a different exit, Josiah seemed to have sensed something and stepped out of the car

The two unexpectedly locked eyes

Alarm bells rang in Lysander’s mind. She didn’t even have time to give him a hint before she saw Josiah striding toward her. Josiah picked up his pace as he entered through the automatic doors, almost breaking into a jog

As Josiah made his entrance, all eyes in the lobby shifted to him. 

For the evercalm and composed Josiah to be in such a hurry, they thought something serious must have happened in the com

Josiah ignored the curious glances, stopping in front of Lysander. At first glance, he seemed as composed as ever, but there was a hint of a melting snowlike smile in his eyes.. 

Lysander knew, without even looking, that the gazes originally fixated on Josiah had undoubtedly shifted 

to her now
