As she spoke, she looked up at Josiah, who hadn’t forgotten to grab his phone before leaving. She gestured for him to hand it over to her.
“I’m afraid we can’t call the police now,” said Josiah helplessly. “My phone is in my jacket pocket. You can check it out. It’s probably dead because it was used as a torch for too long
The already quiet path suddenly became even quieter.
With a sense of helplessness, Lysander said, “If my memory serves me right, your charger is in the car, mine is in the dormitory, and the only phone in the village is at the health center.”
It was truly a case of disasters upon disasters.
Upon hearing their willingness to help, Rhizone was extremely grateful and couldn’t help but offer a word
of caution.
“Josiah, Dr. Thome, you both are good people, but these bad guys supposedly work for a big corporation called Guerra Group. They are powerful and if they find out you’re helping, they might just come after you!
When he mentioned Guerra Group, his tone was particularly disdainful.
This was Josiah’s first time hearing someone speak of his company in such a tone, and his expression instantly became complex.
Lysander didn’t share these concerns. With a puzzled expression, she asked, “Guerra Group? Which Guerra Group are you talking about?”
“I’m not sure,” Rhizone said, leading the way ahead while sharing what he knew about the situation.
“While playing in the village, I found a business card they had discarded. My sister read the words on it to me. She said they were from a big city, rich and powerful. They didn’t care about our well–being at all. Their only intention was to drive us out and take over our land.”
When he spoke of those people’s atrocious behavior, his words grew in number, clearly indicating his intense hatred for them. He even clenched his hands into fists as if he wished he could grow up instantly to drive them away.
Lysander’s emotions became incredibly complex when she saw that.
“Is it… Guerra Group from Harborbrook?” she asked.
Rhizone’s eyes lit up. “That’s right! I remember now. They are from Harborbrook!”
In Harborbrook, there was only one Guerra Group.
Josiah’s heart skipped a beat as he declared firmly, “No way. They couldn’t possibly be from Guerra Group. That business card is likely a fraud. Guerra Group has no plans whatsoever in this area.
As the company CEO, no one knew his business better than he did. Yet, this was the first time he had heard. of this matter.

Guerra Group to swindle others?”

Josiah responded in a voice only the two could hear, “I can only say that there’s a possibility. We need to investigate further to know the specifics. However, I can assure you, Guerra Group would never engage forced buying and selling, and my subordinates wouldn’t dare to defy my orders behind my back.”

I’m virtually one with my company, with exceptional unity throughout. Even if someone had nerves of steel, they likely wouldn’t dare to act recklessly in public in the name of the CEO. What’s the difference between this and seeking death?
Rhizone wasn’t as quick–witted as his sister, walking for a long while before stopping. “Josiah, how do you know that Guerra Group didn’t have such a plan? Are you acquainted with them?” he asked.
He became curious about Josiah’s identity.
Josiah was concerned that his explanation might not be clear, potentially leading to unnecessary misunderstandings. Instead of admitting his identity directly, he said, “I have a friend who works at Guerra Group, so I have some understanding of the situation there.”
Rhizone remained silent, but he had already developed a hostility toward the so–called friend mentioned by Josiah
After a while, he said, “These people would show up now and then. Once, I happened to be fishing amongst the lotus flowers when they were causing havoc by the pond and overheard one of the bad guys saying his boss was the father–in–law of the big boss of Guerra Group, more influential than that big boss. himself. The big boss seemed to be called something like Mr. Guerra. When they mentioned him, they said this old man had a formidable son–in–law, so no one dared to mess with him…”
The situation gradually became clear.
To the outside world, Josiah had two former fathers–in–law. The first wife was overly enigmatic, with no information about who her father was. As for the second, he was none other than Dillon Lanister of
Riveron Corporation.
The company had always desired to venture into the upscale residential business but was hindered by a lack of connections.
With so many clues coming together, there was hardly any room for other possibilities.
In a moment of shared understanding, Lysander and Josiah thought of the same person. She lifted her gaze intending to confirm his thoughts, only to meet his gaze that held the same meaning-
The two found their perspectives unexpectedly aligning..
Josiah struggled to recall the last time he shared the same thoughts with Lysander.
At that moment, he was on the verge of thanking Dillon for his foolishness. Had the man been smart, he wouldn’t have revealed his identity so blatantly.
To verify the specifics, Josiah pondered before asking Rhizone, “Is the boss of those bad guys Lanister?”
surnamed
Rhizone replied firmly. “Yes. They would respectfully address him as Mr. Lanister on the phone before. relaying his words to intimidate us villagers.”
“Did they ever do anything that left behind evidence of their wrongdoings?” Josiah asked slowly.

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....
