His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 643 Out Of Place

Upon hearing this, Blaine found himself in a dilemma. “I’m afraid that might be a bit tricky. Dr. Thomme resides in the dorm of the health center, along with the nurses who came to assist her.”

The underlying message was that, as a grown man, his presence at the girls‘ residence might not be entirely appropriate.

Josiah understood completely. “Don’t worry. I’ll just have a few words with Dr. Thorne. After that, I’ll leave.”

After all, this was a matter between the couple. Blaine reluctantly turned to Lysander, his expression showing considerable difficulty. He didn’t want to offend Josiah, a rare and sincere donor, but he had to consider the feelings of Lysander and her team.

After Lysander finished her chocolate, she was aware that Josiah was not someone who could be easily dismissed. Therefore, she took the initiative and said, “Mr. Alvarez, you carry on with your work. I’ll take him for a walk.”

The two of them retraced the path Lysander had taken, eventually returning to the health center.

When Josiah caught sight of the two–story building ahead, he already felt that the conditions here were quite challenging. However, upon getting a clearer view of what was referred to as the dorm, he furrowed his brows unconsciously.

Lysander was concerned that the nurses might be inconvenienced inside, so she said to him, “You wait here for a bit.”

Instead of questioning her, Josiah simply stopped in his tracks. He waited until she pushed open the dorm door and peeked inside before returning to invite him in. Only then did he step into the dorm.

The homes that the villagers had built themselves mirrored the structure of their own residences. They had even used sturdier bricks with the intention of providing insulation against the wind. In contrast, the door frames were significantly lower.

When Lysander and the nurses entered, they were unaffected. However, it was a different story for Josiah. He had to lower his head to get in. Yet, in the next moment, he still ended up bumping solidly into the second–level guardrail of the bunk bed placed near the door.

The lighting in the cramped room was far from ideal. He hadn’t mentally prepared himself, and it had never occurred to him that the bunk bed would be placed so close to the door.

As a result, a solid thud resonated within the dorm.
