The Charming Ex-Wife (Lysander and Josiah) novel Chapter 163

Chapter 163 A Practical And Economical Man 

The screenshot showed a question–and–answer post from Google. 

The question was: How long after death can a person be reincarnated? 

The response came from someone who signed themselves as Father Jeff: After a soul departs from its mortal coil and returns to the underworld, it takes roughly seven hundred days before it can reincarnate. 

“Is this information from Google reliable?” Lysander asked. 

“What do you think? It’s a listed company.” 

“But who exactly is this Father Jeff?” 

“I’m not sure, but at least he could tell you something ordinary people wouldn’t know.” 

Lysander wondered if it could be a lie to gain clout. 

Daphne said, “It’s up to you whether you believe it or not.” 

Growing up under the influence of worldly education and later specializing in obstetrics, Lysander was quite skeptical. 

However, this time, she desired to follow her heart for once. 

When Daphne realized she remained silent, she understood her thoughts. “Lysander, we must learn from this experience. It doesn’t matter how handsome or wealthy a man is; it’s useless. If you want to live a good life, we should find a practical and economical man.” 

Camila’s husband, Zachary’s father, had passed away unexpectedly over a decade ago. 

The two families had a good relationship and visited each other frequently. At that time, Zachary had been in high school, while Lysander had been in her last year of middle school. Laura had used the excuse of asking Zachary to tutor Lysander. In reality, she had just wanted them to come over for meals, as the loneliness of a single mother and her child was palpable. 

However, Lysander had always been an excellent student. When Zachary arrived, they would simply sit on opposite sides of the same desk to do their homework together. Occasionally, when Lysander had some questions, he would assist in solving them. 

For Camila’s fiftieth birthday, a grand celebration was held at a renowned Hestryan cuisine restaurant located in the heart of Harborbrook. 

As they set off in the morning, the family of four had just descended the stairs when they spotted Zachary’s car waiting downstairs. “Mr. Thorne, Mrs. Thorne, my mom sent me to pick you all up.” 

Laura’s face lit up with joy. “Jeez, you should have spent the day with your mother. How come you’re here acting as our chauffeur?” 

Zachary stepped out of the car, diligently taking the gifts from Maverick’s and Laura’s hands and placing them into the trunk. Then, he courteously opened the car door for Laura and helped Maverick fasten his seatbelt. He was so busy that he was sweating profusely. 

Right then, Michelle touched Lysander’s arm and leaned in. “Lysander…”

Upon seeing her pleading expression, Lysander immediately understood. “You have made plans with your little boyfriend again?” 

“Lysander, he has a name. It’s Calvin Conway.” 

“But today is Mdm. Camila’s birthday. You’re thinking of sneaking out midway? Mom and Dad will definitely disapprove.” 

“That’s why I need you to cover for me!”
