Chapter 287 How Do You Want To Play
Aiden slapped his face with a resounding smack.
Zane was slowly backing away, ready to bolt at any moment.
Only Daphne remained, reveling in the chaos. “Ms. Elmore, you still haven’t answered my question. How do you know the child’s skin color was due to hyperpigmentation? And how do you know Lysanne was bringing food to Old Mrs. Guerra?”
“Lysanne told me herself. I believe her.”
Squeak!
A piercing sound echoed.
Zane, in his haste to escape, had knocked over a chair
He yelled as he made his escape, “Josiah, I’ve got something urgent at home. Gotta go!”
Then he quickly fled the “crime scene.
Aiden’s curses followed, “D’mn it, Zane! You ran off without me!”
Yvonne was baffled. “Why is Zane running-away? What’s he so scared of, like he’s seen a ghost?”
Daphne nodded enthusiastically. “It’s almost Halloween. Maybe he really did see something spooky.”
Yvonne scoffed, putting her hands on her hips. “Ms. Everhart, do you have any common sense? Halloween was two or three months ago.”
“Oh, it’s already passed? Well, I must be really dumb.
“It’s not your
fault,” Yvonne generously replied. “Knowing you’re dumb means you’re not too dumb. Just read more books in the future.”
Struggling to hold back her laughter, Daphne nodded. “Okay, thanks for the advice, Ms. Elmore.”
“It’s nothing. After all, I graduated from a famous law school, unlike you who graduated from a third- rate university. Encouraging you to read more is for your own good.”
“Okay, okay, thanks for your great kindness, Ms. Elmore. I’ll never forget it,” Daphne said before. bursting into laughter. “I can’t hold it in anymore. You guys keep chatting. I’ll go laugh over there for a while. Hahaha…”
Yvonne was bewildered and asked Lysander, “Is your friend really mentally ill? If she is, it’s better to seek treatment early. Mental health shouldn’t be neglected.”
Lysander cleared her throat. “Well, thanks for your concern.”

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....
