The Charming Ex-Wife (Lysander and Josiah) novel Chapter 239
Chapter 239 I Am Sorry
Lysander could distinctly feel a sharp gaze from across the room.
She turned away, avoiding meeting his eyes.
Maxim’s heavily pregnant wife, Remi Dyer smiled as she took Lysander’s hand. “Dr. Thorne, please sit. The meal is about to start.”
Lysander insisted. “But the other employees haven’t arrived yet. How can we start?”
Remi affectionately patted her hand. “They’re all young people, not into gatherings. My husband told them to go have fun on their own. Come, sit here.”
Lysander once again realized that although pregnant women were considered vulnerable, in a sense, they were also strong.
Because of her pregnancy, if she set her mind on something, those caught by her couldn’t dare resist too much.
Just like now, she was forced to passively sit by Remi, and she couldn’t directly shake off her hand.
It was reminiscent of when she was pulled into the chaotic traffic by Lysanne and nearly lost her life.
Remi called out, “Maxim, come over here. Let Zach sit in your spot. The young couple should sit together.”
Maxim slapped his forehead, laughing heartily. “Ah, that’s forgetful of me. Yes, yes, couples should sit together. Today, there are three couples here. It’s like celebrating Valentine’s Day. Isn’t that festive?”
At this point, Josiah abruptly set down his cutlery.
Maxim and Remi immediately fell silent, not daring to speak anymore.
Zachary laughed heartily, seemingly oblivious to the undercurrents stirring within the private room. He poured a cup of wine for Josiah first, then filled his own. “Mr. Guerra, here’s to you. I’ll go first, you go at your pace.”
With that, he tilted his head back, downing half a glass of vodka.
After finishing, he turned the glass upside down, indicating it was empty.
Zachary placed the empty glass on the table and raised his voice. “I hope our architectural design company’s cooperation with Guerra Group goes smoothly, achieving a win–win situation.”
Josiah remained unmoved, keeping his head slightly tilted. He looked like he was assessing Zachary, yet also contemplating something.
Lysanne sat beside, shrinking into a small ball, not daring to utter a word.
Seeing Josiah silent for a while, she called softly, “Josiah…”

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....
