The Charming Ex-Wife (Lysander and Josiah) novel Chapter 71

Chapter 71 Don’t Interfere In Josiah’s Matters 

“Adrian. His name is similar to mine” 

Josiah’s eyes narrowed dangerously. “Is he a doctor?” 

Aiden was delighted. Josiah, do you know my brother? I always knew he was exceptional, but I never realized just how remarkable he truly is. Even someone like you, who has never met him, recognizes 

his name… 

Josiah chuckled coldly. 

At that moment, the waiter brought over some drinks. Josiah took it and drank it all in one gulp. 

Aiden advised, “Josiah, this is vodka. It’s not meant to be consumed in one go. Take it easy. 

“Do you know who your brother is interested in?” 

Aiden shook his head honestly. “I don’t know. He keeps it well hidden. Even our biological mother is 

unaware.” 

As they conversed, Aiden spotted a familiar face. He stood up and waved. “Zane, come over here!” 

Zane jogged over and greeted obediently, “Josiah.” 

Aiden draped his arm around Zane’s neck. “Why are you so late? Josiah has been waiting for you.” 

“There was traffic. It’s a nightmare out there.” 

Zane sat down next to Josiah and immediately retrieved his phone from his pocket. As he entered the lock screen password, he asked, “Josiah, should I read it to you or would you prefer to read it yourself?” 

Josiah inquired, “Did she send it again?” 

“Yes. Just a while ago.” 

Adrian asked, “Who sent it? How much money did she send to make you so excited, Zane?” 

Zane glanced at him. “It’s a post on the social media, not a windfall.” 

“Who posted on social media?” 

“Daphne.” 

Adrian’s expression suddenly became tense. “Why are you guys looking at her social media?” 

Zane scoffed. “Mind your own business, Adrian.” 

With that, he flipped his phone to the page and handed it to Josiah. “Josiah, take a look.” 

Josiah took the phone.

Chapter 71 Don’t Interfere in Josiah’s Matters 

Daphne had only posted a picture without any words. 

He recognized the place in the picture. It was outside the popular internet-famous restaurant today. The onlookers were all blurred by Daphne, making the two people in the center of the picture stand out even more, and… it had a certain atmosphere. 

A man was running forward with a woman in his arms, with their backs facing the camera. 

The woman in his arms was petite, completely covered by his body, only her black hair flowing in the air and the hem of her skirt fluttering could be seen. 

Looking at this photo. I think it has nothing to do with Lysanne. It’s probably a still from a TV drama. Look at the sunset and the composition. It’s obviously the kind of bubble idol drama that those girls like to watch.” 

Zane enlarged the picture as he spoke while pointing to the sunset in the upper right corner, then pointing to the two people in the center of the frame and analyzing it in detail. 

“It’s quite strange. Daphne used to never watch these lovey-dovey TV dramas. She only liked horror movies. Has she changed recently?” 

Josiah put his phone back in his arms, stood up, grabbed his coat, and walked out. 

Zane chased after him from behind. Josiah, why are you leaving? I just arrived and you’re leaving?” 

Josiah stopped in his tracks and Zane caught up. “Let’s have a few more drinks, Josiah…” 

He didn’t dare to say the rest 

Josiah’s face looked unpleasant. 

Aiden also caught up. “What’s wrong, Josiah? Why are you suddenly leaving?” 

Josiah furrowed his brow. “I’m irritated. I’m leaving. You guys enjoy your drinks. Put it on my tab.” 

“Forget it. Your company has been losing a lot of money recently. I’ll cover it today.” 

Josiah’s expression suddenly turned cold. “Are you looking down on me?” 

“No. No. No. How could I dare…” 

Josiah gave him a penetrating look, walked past him, and said, “I’m leaving.” 

Zane inquired, “Josiah, do you still want to keep up with Daphne’s updates on social media?” 

Josiah hesitated. “Hmm… if there’s any news, let me know anytime.”
