The Charming Ex-Wife (Lysander and Josiah) novel Chapter 185
Chapter 185 You Were Once The Mother Of My Son
Lysander descended the stairs.
Downstairs, in the familiar spot, was the familiar car.
When Lysander was just dropped off by Zachary a moment ago, the area was virtually empty. The old residential district had virtually no designated parking spaces. This was merely a narrow lane within the neighborhood.
The Cayenne was huge. Thus, even when parked on the side, it took up half of the street.
Fortunately, this residential area was far from the city center, causing many to relocate. Now, it was primarily inhabited by older folks, with few young people choosing to live there. The area was somewhat desolate, and even if the roads were occupied, no one would complain.
As soon as Lysander stepped out of the apartment door, Josiah spotted her.
He turned off the engine, exited the car, and leaned against it as he waited.
As Lysander approached, he asked, “Are you going shopping? Or just out for a walk?”
Lysander chuckled. “And what about you? Are you here to share some good news, or to hand out wedding favors?”
Josiah’s expression darkened slightly as he pulled open the car door. “Can we talk?”
Lysander didn’t want to get in the car. “Let’s talk here.”
Josiah’s hand rested on the car handle, his grip tightening and loosening intermittently. “You can see this place from your house window.”
Lysander studied him for a while, then, bypassing him, she opened the back seat door and seated herself inside.
Regarding the issue of the front passenger seat, the two individuals had experienced more than one unpleasant incident in the past. Josiah understood Lysander’s intentions but chose not to comment. Instead, he casually closed the front passenger door and took his place in the back seat from the other side.
Inside the car, there was a strong smell of smoke,
Lysander frowned and waved her hand, prompting Josiah to roll down the car window. “I apologize. My smoking habit has been out of control lately.”
Lysander didn’t say much. She simply asked, “The reason?”
Josiah asked, “What reason?”
“What do you think?”
Josiah didn’t know what to say.
“Turns out, I was just reading too much into things. Recently, you’ve been coming to our neighborhood not because of me, but to scout locations for the amusement park. It makes sense, really. Whether it’s the geographical location or the development cost, this place is quite ideal for an amusement park. As always, you have a keen eye for these things.”

Josiah’s gaze narrowed as he took a deep breath. “I won’t hide it from you. Indeed, Walter Constructions is
one of Guerra Group’s companies.”
“Then, here’s to wishing you success in your new endeavor.”
“Lysander, said Josiah, “it’s ins

The readers' comments on the novel: The Charming Ex-Wife (Lysander and Josiah)
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....
