The Charming Ex-Wife (Lysander and Josiah) novel Chapter 88
Chapter 88 The Thorn In Josiah’s Heart
After taking off her apron, Eleanor rushed to pack Susan’s belongings in her bedroom.
Meanwhile, Josiah glanced at Susan, who was already seated on the sofa. Her eyes were closed, and she was twirling a string of prayer beads, seemingly engaged in prayer-clear signs she wished to avoid conversation with him.
Feeling helpless, Josiah sought out Eleanor, who efficiently packed Susan’s clothes and daily necessities.
He called out softly, “Eleanor?”
“Oh, Mr. Guerra,” Eleanor promptly responded.
“Let me help you,” Josiah offered.
Eleanor replied, “No need, please sit down. I can handle it myself.”
Josiah reluctantly withdrew his outstretched hand and asked, “Eleanor, why do you seem afraid of Lysanne?”
Uneasy, Eleanor stammered, “No… No, not at all.”
Josiah continued, “If there’s something, just tell me directly.”
Lowering her head, Eleanor smiled faintly and admitted, “Mr. Guerra, I’ve been a maid all my life. served many families, but only Madam truly treated me like family. Even you, I consider as my son.”
“I know,” Josiah replied, understanding Eleanor’s perspective.
Eleanor replied, “Mr. Guerra, I must share something you may not want to hear today. Choosing to divorce Mrs. Guerra and be with Ms. Lysanne might lead to regrets in the future.”
Josiah was surprised upon hearing this. He asked, “Why do you say that?”
Eleanor shared, “Mr. Guerra, the commitment between two people is for a lifetime. While having affection for someone is one thing, the ability to withstand the test of time is another matter.”
She added, “Well… Ms. Lysanne has never been a well-behaved person since her youth. Choosing to be with her may lead to countless challenges for you and her child. I don’t mean to speak ill of her behind her back, but I’ve always sensed that her nature might pose difficulties.”
Josiah furrowed his brows as he asked, “Do you know something?”
Eleanor-stated, “It’s not a big deal, but do you remember the chick seller at the school gate when you were young?”
Yeah, I remember,” Josiah replied.
Eleanor revealed, “I witnessed it myself. She fought with the chick seller and proceeded to smash an

“Yes, that scene was truly… Even as an adult, I felt frightened witnessing it. I can’t comprehend how a young girl like her could be so ruthless. Even in an argument with the chick seller, why would she have to take the lives of those innocent chicks?” Eleanor’s tone turned somber as she recollected the
incident.
Josiah was utterly stunned by the revelation.

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....
