His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 681 The Goddess Aphrodite

The moment the topic turned to the child who could effortlessly lift Lysander, all of Josiah’s doubts dissipated. He figured that even if the local children didn’t possess such extraordinary athletic prowess, they must certainly have decent physical strength.

As the two were conversing, the procession halted for a performance. First, a group of children, pretending to be cupids, performed a series of backflips in place. Following them was an elderly man on stilts, which were at least one point two meters high. Yet, he moved as if he were on flat ground, seemingly unaffected by the height.

Josiah had completely decided to take back his previous words. The parade participants were filled with talented individuals. If one didn’t know better, one hey would have thought they were professional acrobats hired for a performance.

Lysander rarely saw his pupils constrict like that, and being able to read his mind, she said, “You’ve only been to places like this when doing charity work before, haven’t you?”

“No, I’ve never been here before,” Josiah admitted candidly. “In the past, my involvement in charitable activities was limited to signing off on plans. At most, I would pose for a photo with representatives. As for the actual circumstances, the assessment was always done by the staff working on the ground.”

He had never imagined that the seemingly insignificant lines written in the contract could actually hold such a profound impact on so many people’s lives.

Lysander wasn’t surprised by this. She merely remarked, “It’s rather ironic, isn’t it? Back when we were married, we barely knew anything about each other’s work. Now, it seems we can actually hold a

conversation about it.”

Today, she was dressed simply. Her outfit consisted of dark blue jeans paired with a solid–colored sweatshirt. The shoes she wore were nearly identical to the pair she had lost in the village, a pair of canvas shoes. At first glance, she and Josiah, who stood beside her, looked as if they were wearing matching couple outfits.

Inwardly, Josiah felt a hint of joy although he didn’t show it. He subtly moved closer to Lysander while shielding her, appearing just like any ordinary couple would.

After the villagers, playing various characters, had completed their parts, the focus of the procession turned to the deity statues being carried on wooden palanquins. They were, in fact, the true protagonists of the day.

Lysander had little knowledge about the local customs there, so she had no choice but to eavesdrop on an elderly local who was explaining the situation to a young man nearby.
