His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 403 Josiah Got There In TWhen Lysander returned to the room after the phone call, Josiah was no longer there.

He had taken the tto remove the medical waste that had just been used for treatment from the trash bin She was the only one in the room, which surprisingly made her feel much more at ease. She laid back down and had a good, undisturbed sleep.

The next day, when she arrived at the hospital, there was an additional person in the ward.

Priscilla was feeding Molly soup.

Seeing her approach, she greeted her with a smile, "Lysander." Lysander also responded with a smile, "You're here." "My dad always toldto repay the tiniest favor with enormous gratitude and charity. Besides, I've had a lot of free ton my hands recently, so I thought I'd cover and lend a hand." Lysander extended her hand. "Thank you, but I can take over now." Priscilla handed her the bowl of soup and the spoon she was holding, then stepped aside. She watched as Lysander fed Molly the soup.

"Priscilla.

"Hmm?" "Was the ward empty when you arrived?" "No, Mr. Thorne has been here all along. He just went to the cafeteria to get sfood, so I'm helping him keep watch for a bit." "Food? Then where did the soup cfrom?" "I made this myself. I included several ingredients known for their restorative properties. It's really good for recovery As they were talking, Howard returned.

However, there was nothing in his hands, and he was wearing an expression of sheer panic.

"Lysa, you're here..." Lysander nodded. Noticing his pale complexion, she asked, "What's wrong?" Howard sighed. “Even though Lyss is two years older than you, she still behaves like a child. All these years, your mom and I have spoiled her too much." "What happened to her now?" "Last night, she forgot to turn off the stove while cooking, and the house caught fire. The house was mostly.

1/4 Mon, 3 Jun Chapter 403 Josiah Got There In Tthe house to burn down." As Lysander continued to feed Molly soup, she aasually asked, "She's all right, isn't she?" 37%8 "Yeah, thank goodness Josiah got there in time..." Howard seemed to realize he had misspoken. He paused for a moment before quickly clarifying, “Josiah was just worried about his mother. After all, the two houses are adjacent, and if the fire had spread, it might have reached the Guerra family's old house too. He didn't go there specifically for Lyss. Don't overthink it." No wonder he left so hastily last night.

Lysander said, “It doesn't matter as long as she's fine.” Priscilla muttered. "It's quite something that a grown person could set the house on fire just by cooking." Howard was clearly embarrassed as he awkwardly rubbed his hands together. "She's never set foot in a kitchen since she was a kid. She doesn't have a clue about any of this, so..." "That issue has been resolved, and I don't need to move into the Thorne manor anymore. I doubt it's even habitable now." Howard felt even more awkward. "How about I buy you a new house? You can choose whichever one you like. Just letknow." "Let's talk about it later." After finishing a bowl of soup, Molly also felt a bit weary.

Lysander helped her lay down, adjusting the blanket around her. "You should go back and take a look. I'll stay and keep watch here." Howard waved his hand. "It's okay. I'll stay here." "Aren't you worried about Lysanne?" Howard did not respond.

Lysander added, "You've raised her since she was young. Even without a blood connection, you'd still feel concerned, right? Go and take a look, so Lysanne doesn't get the wrong idea that I'm the one preventing you from going." With a sigh, Howard walked over and patted her shoulder. "I'll just go for a quick look, and I'll be right back. "Priscilla, could you helpsee him off?" "Sure," said Priscilla. "Mr. Thorne, let's take the back door, shall we? The front entrance of the hospital is always congested with traffic, while the back door is much less crowded." Howard followed behind Priscilla as they left.

Molly also closed her eyes to rest.

When they left, the door to the ward was left open. From the corner of her eye, Lysander caught sight of familiar figure, who was gesticulating wildly at the drway.

2/4 Chapter 403 Josiah Got There In TShe let out a chuckle, then beckoned a junior nurse over to look after Molly before she left.

"Lysander!" Daphne embraced her. "I'm so sorry. There's just been so much going on at hrecently. I couldn't get away. As soon as I had a moment, I rushed over to see you." Lysander removed Daphne's hands from her and said with a smile, "When an elder is ill, you should fulfill your duty and look after them. Besides, there's nothing of great importance going on with me.” "Nothing of great importance? You're now a daughter of a prominent family, you know. When I was coming here, I even asked my father. The Thorne family's business is much larger than ours. Who knows. I might have to cling to you for support in the future." Lysander tapped her forehead lightly. "Don't. I'm just an ordinary doctor." Daphne guided her to the nearby rest area and sat down. "Are you implying that you have no intention of inheriting the Thfamily's wealth?" After sthought, Lysander nodded.

"Are you out of your mind? You're the rightful heir! If you don't claim your inheritance, all of the Thorne family's wealth will fall into the hands of that adopted girl! Listen to me, Lysander, this isn't the tfor us to be high-minded. What's rightfully yours, you must claim! Why should you hand it over to someone else on a silver platter?" Lysander was much more composed. "I'm not just going to hand everything over, but I studied medicine. I don't understand all that business stuff, and I certainly don't want to end up a spendthrift." "But that b*tch doesn't understand too! It's your family. Why let others spend all that money?" "Josiah will help to keep an eye on things." Daphne listened, only half-understanding. "You mean to say.

"I don't mean anything by it. At this point, I don't have much say in m everything that's happening. We'll just have to take it one step at a time.” "Do you still plan on going to Stounia?" Lysander shook her head. "The situation here is too complicated. If I go, I can't guarantee that something won't happen to Molly again." Daphne let out a sigh. "It's such a shame. You've missed a great opportunity for an assignment abroad." "No worries. As I've said before, as a doctor, no matter where I am, my duty remains the same: to treat illnesses and save lives." "Are you glad about it, then?" "Isn't life just like that? You keep facing troubles and you keep making compromises." "So, do you plan on keeping this a secret from your parents forever?" “We'll see later,” Lysander said, somewhat worn out. “Daphine, is my sister doing okay?" "Hahaha, don't worry. Your sister is a total social bully. Not long after she started university, she made a 3/4 22:47 Mon, 3 Jun Chapter 403 Josiah Got There In Time: bunch of friends. She's been happily busy every day." "What has she been busy with?"

"I heard she joined several clubs, even the student council. Every day she's either rehearsing for a play or practicing roller skating. She's absolutely over the moon with joy." Lysander chuckled. "What a carefree little girl." "Moreover, I heard that a senior from the university's basketball team was pursuing her." Lysander was somewhat surprised. “That fast? Hasn't it been just a short while since she started. university?"

"Kids these days are quite bold. I heard he was rather passionate." Daphne laughed. "But your sister rejected him outright. I was quiten impressed by her. Back in our day, even if we wanted to reject someone, we had to do it subtly and politely. Your sister is quite a force. She just said two words, 'No way!' and sent him off. Actually, in my opinion, that basketball boy was quite handsand tall. He was really nice." Lysander couldn't help but sigh.

Her ex-boyfriend truly has a significant impact.

It's likely that Michelle never wanted to have anything to do with a guy who plays basketball in her life again.
