Lysander was aware of the specifics, but she was not able to share what Nieva had told her about Josiah with anyone else, not even Daphne. With a concerned tone, she asked, “Was Elio targeting you?”
“No.” Daphne shared the good news with her.
“Although the loan I secured was less than initially expected, it was still enough to rejuvenate Everhart Corporation's cash flow. I also took over Riveron Corporation's orders, effectively reviving the company. By the time my father returns, I'll have something positive to report.”
For someone who was handling a company for the first time, these results were already quite remarkable.
Lysander truly had no interest in doing business. The only reason she had stepped in to help previously was out of necessity, not choice. Seeing Daphne find her life's purpose in it now, she genuinely felt happy for her.
However, for such a large contract, there were many potential partners that Guerra Group could choose from.
The decision to entrust Daphne was likely because of her.
Lysander chuckled softly. “Now, you can finally set aside your worries. Mr. Everhart can rest easy too.”
When Lysander was previously staying at a resort to learn the ropes of business, Dillon had once used the pretext of wanting to collaborate with Everhart Corporation and asked her to get in touch with Daphne.
This was about a substantial order initially set to be produced by Riveron Corporation. She pondered over it, fearing both that Daphne would be taken advantage of, and that Everhart Corporation might not be able to hold on if they couldn't find customers after the controversy. In the end, she simply handed the decision-making power over to Daphne.
Looking back now, it seems that Dillon's actions at the time were likely influenced by Tiffany.
Lysander was recalling the last look Tiffany had toward the fire scene, it gave her the creeps. She explained the situation to Daphne, “I'm worried that the so-called clients of Riveron Corporation might be in cahoots with them. Be extra careful with everything.”
Whenever Daphne reflected on her encounters with Tiffany, it felt as though she had lived through a terrifying dream. She found herself nodding repeatedly, as though stuck in a trance.
“The payment has been settled, but not with Riveron Corporation, rather with the client who had originally entrusted them with the goods. Thanks to your warning, I was extra cautious. Otherwise, I would have definitely been duped last time.”
“It was only right that I warned you. After all, they went through such lengths, having me act as a go-between to reach out to you. They must've had ulterior motives.”
Even now, Lysander's heart still held lingering fear.
Daphne wore a puzzled expression. “Go-between? Didn't you directly send me an email last time? The one you sent when you were at Thorne Constructions and Energies.”
“Email?”
“Yeah.”
However, as soon as the words were spoken, both individuals sensed that something was amiss.
She had Daphne's phone number and WhatsApp, so why on earth would she go out of her way to use email?
“Is that...?” Daphne sneakily glanced at Josiah, who was not far away. “Did he send it to me?”
“It should be.”
She hadn't expected that not only had he helped manage Thorne Constructions and Energies for a while after she had left, but he had also taken Daphne's matter to heart.
Daphne's pupils quivered in an instant, she was so incredulous that she found herself at a loss for words.
Lysander saw the look of disbelief in her eyes and shrugged helplessly. “I had just lost my father and was falling apart back then. I couldn't have thought of something so profound and detailed.”
Reflecting on those past events, she felt as if she had been shattered into pieces and then painstakingly put back together again.
Just as Daphne was about to ask further, voices echoed from the living room. It was the arrival of Howard and Molly, and accompanying them was Michelle.
After the burial of Maverick, Michelle had to part ways with Laura to return home and prepare for her final exams as she needed to continue her studies.

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....
