The Charming Ex-Wife (Lysander and Josiah) novel Chapter 294
Chapter 294 Leaving The Country
Though Daphne was a prominent young lady, her tastes were surprisingly down-to-earth.
In the end, she took them to a humble burger joint.
As they munched on their burgers, she explained, “It’s not that I’m stingy. I just really wanted you to try this burger joint. It’s hot sauce is really amazing.”
Lysander couldn’t take spicy food, so she ordered a burger without any hot sauce and ate slowly enjoying her meal.
However, Adrian refused to even try it. Seeing Lysander eating contentedly, he frowned and said, “Street food like this isn’t very hygienic. Even if she doesn’t know it, you should be aware. And why are you just following along?”
“Hey, what’s that supposed to mean? There’s nothing wrong with eating burgers!”
“Don’t eat this,” Adrian insisted. “Let’s go somewhere else. My treat.”
He stood up, ready to leave, but Lysander’s words brought him back to his seat: “When I was in school, I used to eat at the street stalls in the alley behind our campus. They were cheap and delicious, and it was perfectly healthy. Besides, our school was a medical university, and both students and teachers ate there. They’re still working in Harborbrook’s top hospitals, saving lives every day.”
“Exactly,” Daphne mumbled through a mouthful of french fries. “Don’t be like Josiah, who always insists on eating steak and pasta. That’s so pretentious.
Adrian hesitated, then sat back down.
He called to the owner, “I’ll have one too.”
“Got it. Do you want any hot sauce?” the owner asked.
“No, I’ll skip it just like her.”
Daphne teased him, “Such a big guy, and you can’t handle spicy food?”
Adrian glared at her. “Be glad I’m eating this at all.”
Daphne laughed, giving him a thumbs-up. “Not eating spicy food is your final stand.”

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....
