Chapter 414 Waiting For Your Call
Michelle stuck out her tongue, obediently nodding. “Lysander, do you think I’m too foolish?”
Lysander thought that perhaps she had been too harsh with her words earlier. After all, her sister only had good intentions, wanting to help case the family’s burden.
“Of course not. You’re still young, and there’s so much in the world you haven’t experienced yet. Your lack of experience makes it hard for you to foresee certain dangers. Mich, I know you mean well, but wealth isn’t important. Your personal safety is what truly matters. Can you imagine how heartbroken Mom, Dad, and I would be if anything were to happen to you?”
Michelle hung her head low, fiddling with her fingers dejectedly. “Truth be told, I was a bit scared at first. I’ve never been to such a grand place before. But Zachary said…
Lysander’s heart skipped a beat. “Who said?”
Michelle panicked. “Um, no… no one.”
Lysander became serious, “Did you come to work here because of Zachary? Did he send you here? What did he tell you?”
“I was just looking for a part–time job, you know. But I couldn’t find one that could help me make a lot quickly, so I asked Zachary for advice. He mentioned that a friend of his was working here as a junior supervisor and could arrange for me to work here. Zachary is so mature and reliable. He wouldn’t in harm’s way, would he?”
Lysander was filled with anger.

However, she reined in her emotions in front of her younger sister. They both returned home, and she helped her sister cover up the lie in front of their parents, Once all three of her family members had gone. to bed, she went downstairs alone and found a quiet spot to call Zachary.
The call was answered quickly. “Lysander?”
“Zachary, what on earth are you trying to do?”
Zachary chuckled lightly. “I’ve been waiting for your call.”
“You’ve already gotten what you wanted. Why are you still pestering Michelle?”
Zachary had seemingly braced himself for her fury, his tone remaining nonchalant. “Shall we meet up and talk?”
“Tell me the location.”
“My home.”
Lysander remained silent.
“Don’t worry, my mom is at home, too. I won’t do anything to you. You’re safe,”
“Zachary, I don’t believe you.”

“What’s wrong
with being guarded around someone like you?”
“All right then, where do you suggest we meet?“.
“At the burger joint by the residential area’s main entrance.”
Zachary readily agreed, saying, “Sure.”
After ending the call, Lysander headed to the burger joint first and ordered a burger.
Roughly ten minutes later, Zachary arrived.
He was still dressed in a suit and shirt, appearing refined and well–mannered, much like a corporate elite.
Pulling out a chair, he took a seat across from Lysander and ordered a burger, too.
“Speak up,” Lysander commanded, her arms crossed as she looked him straight in the eye. “What are you planning this time?”
Zachary asked, “Did you and Josiah break up?”
“Yes.”
“Really?”
“Don’t believe me? Go ask her yourself.”
Zachary was all smiles as he said, “Come on, Lysander, your sister is already eighteen. Do you still think she’s a naive kindergartener who doesn’t know anything?”
“Could you possibly stoo mentioning losiah? If youso infatuated with Josiah, why don’t you go to

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....
