His Beloved Ex-Wife

The Charming Ex-Wife Chapter 491 Better To Offend A Gentleman Than Someone Despicable Michelle runs into trouble immediately after returning to the country? What are the odds? With her other hand, Lysander clenched the blanket draped over her, subconsciously thinking of someone she now found utterly repulsive. "It must've been Zachary, Josiah's expression was far from pleasant. "When you clooking forbefore, wasn't it because he threatened you with your sister?" Lysander was particularly concerned about this matter and didn't want any misunderstandings. She expressed her worry by saying, "Zachary is the type of person who only cares about the end result, so he will completely disregard any boundaries. I only have one sister, so I really can't afford to take any risks. Can you handyour phone-" Josiah's expression turned slightly serious. "And what will you do next? Call Zachary to confront him, or provide clues to the police? If Zachary dared to do it, he must've had everything planned out. Even if the person responsible was caught, they surely wouldn't be able to trace it back to him." Exasperated, Lysander pounded on the bed. "Isn't there anything we can do about him?" "It's better to offend a gentleman than to provoke someone despicable." Recalling the phone call she had heard him make while she was in a daze last night, Lysander looked up at him and asked, "So, you told him to go back to work?" Yeah." "Zachary is a sharp individual who always knows just how far he can push the boundaries. He can threaten you without causing any serious repercussions. Even if this car accident was traced back to him, he would receive a verbal reprimand from the police at most. He will then pay smedical expenses and be able to avoid jail time. However, as long as he is around, your family will never have peace, and you would all have to constantly be on your guard. To be completely free from him, three options exist. Either he dies, spends a lifetin jail, or you simply cater to his demands." "But I can't accept this! Why do the bad guys always get what they want?" Lysander exclaimed bitterly. "Harry's fate is already sealed, and Zachary's is fast approaching. It's all just a matter of timing," said Josiah. "Thank you." When Lysander thought back on her two consecutive failed attempts to find Josiah, her emotions suddenly beccomplex. She hadn't expected that he had already arranged everything by that time.

With an air of annoyance, Josiah retorted, “Should I say 'you're welcome, then?" Lysander gave it sthought and replied, "That's up to you." Josiah was immediately amused by her. "Seafood. I still remember that, so don't you forget either." "I couldn't possibly forget that." Josiah leisurely turned his gaze back, a spark of intrigue perfectly kindled in his eyes. With a hint of amusement, he said, "I happen to be quite fond of seafood, so feel free to seek my help in the future. I 1/3 Chapter 491 Better To Offend A Gentleman Than Someone Despicable Just at that moment, there was a knock on the hospital room door from the outside.

Feeling displeased, Josiah said. "You stay here. I'll go and send that person off." "Do we even know who it is yet?" Josiah pointed at the overflowing fruit basket on the coffee table. "Are all these people dogs or something? They sure have a keen sense of smell, drawn here by the scent." Lysander probably could have guessed sof it.

Josiah hadn't attended the summit for several years, so the rare occasion of his attendance was bound to attract a crowd, eager to establish connections with the renowned Guerra Group.

Finding the hotel probably wasn't hard for them, but managing to locate the hospital ward was indeed somewhat impressive.

Lysander couldn't help but feel a bit inadequate. She had always been academically inclined since childhood, but the intricacies of the business world were beyond her grasp.

Not wanting to continue discussing seafood. Lysander simply raised her voice and said, "Please cin.” The door was gently pushed open from the outside, revealing Tiffany, who had been missing for over a day. She stood alone, carrying a thermos, and greeted them with a smile, "Hello, Jose! Hello, Lysa!" Upon seeing that the visitor was Tiffany and not sother sycophant, Josiah subtly let the coldness fade from his expression.

Completely oblivious to it, Tiffany casually took a seat next to him, himm Turning toward Lysander, who lay in the hospital bed, she said, "Lysa, my dad mentioned you were unwell, so I cto visit. How feeling now?" are Lysander returned a gentle smile. "I just had a bit of a fever, nothing serious. The high fever has already subsided after I received an IV transfusion. Thank you for coming to see me."

As if to deliberately undermine her, Josiah added, "You were asleep om when the doctor was giving his advice. You probably don't know that No your prescription states you need to be on an IV drip for at least a week." Lysander's forehead creased in surprise. "A week?"

In an effort to save money, she had purchased her return flight ticket in advance. Now, with the sudden m onslaught of illness, if she was unable to make the flight on time, her only option would be to change her booking. However, the cost of rescheduling was also quite substantial. Lysander felt a surge of pain spreading through her head.

Worry filled Tiffany's innocent face as she asked, "Lysa, why does your IV drip need to go on for so long? You must be feeling really uncomfortable, right?" A warmth surged within Lysander as she heard this. "It's all right; it's not that bad." Josiah watched them silently for a while. He didn't wait for her to ask him anything, nor did he plan to interrupt awkwardly. Instead, he took the initiative
