Chapter 216 Where I Lose
Lysander frowned and asked, “You play pool too?”
Lynn winked at her. “Didn’t expect that, right? I’m pretty good at it. Back in my undergraduate days, none of the boys in my class could win me! Do you know how to play, Dr. Thorne?”
“I don’t.”
Not only do I not know, I’m completely clueless about it.
“I’ll teach you then!”
Without further ado, Lynn shoved a cue stick into her hand. “You’re my mentor in the hospital, but now the tables have finally turned!”
Lysander figured she had nothing else to do anyway. Looking back, she saw the two stars of the day were drinking while being hemmed in by everyone else.
Since she couldn’t hold her liquor and didn’t want to join them, she might as well play pool with Lynn.
Lynn prompted, “See here. Position your left hand like a support, and hold the cue to hit the cue ball with your right, just like this.”
Bang!
She pocketed a ball on the first hit.
“How about that, my skills are pretty good, right?”
“Amazing! You’re Ms. Vale today.”
“Now, you try!”
Lysander tried Lynn’s method and missed.
She tried again but missed the cue ball altogether. The cue stick struck air on the side of the ball.
Lysander shook her head. “I don’t think I have talent in this.”
Suddenly, a deep male voice came from behind. “Only you two are here?”
Lynn greeted with a smile, “Dr. Sutton!”
Adrian grunted an acknowledgment, slowly walked over, glanced at the mess of balls on the table that Lysander had hit, and asked softly, “Don’t know how to play, Dr. Thorne?”
Lysander shook her head. “Nope, Where’s your girlfriend, Dr. Sutton?”
“She’s acquainted with Linda, so she went to join them.”
“It seems like they’re drinking over there, aren’t you going to join them?”

Lynn’s eyes lit up. “So Dr. Sutton is also an expert!”
“I’m not bad at it.Adrian asked, “Down for a round?”
Lynn rolled up her sleeves and said, “Bring it on! We’re in a team, Dr. Thorne, so it’s two against one!”

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....
