The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 407 Separate Ways

Eleanor hurried over, and soon, her joyous voice could be heard. “Mr. Guerra! You’re back! Come, the food has just been served. Let me get you a set of utensils!”

Josiah crossed the living room. Lysander, keeping her gaze lowered, could still sense his eyes on her.

However, they didn’t stay on her for too long.

“Mom, are you feeling better now?” asked Josiah.

“I’m fine,” Susan gestured to the spot next to her. “Have you eaten?”

“Not yet.

“That’s perfect. Come sit down and let’s eat together.”

Josiah pulled out a chair and sat down on the other side of Susan, perfectly facing Lysander.

However, neither of them said a word to each other.

Susan explained. “Lysander came to visit me today, so she stayed to have dinner with me.”

Josiah didn’t even lift his head. He simply hummed in acknowledgment. “Mom, after dinner, could you ask Eleanor to pack your things? I’ve bought you a new house. You’ll be moving there soon.

Susan was somewhat taken aback. “Why is that?”

“Houses made of wood are quite prone to catching fire in the winter, making them somewhat unsafe. Moreover, the Thome manor next door also needs to carry out some repairs, which will inevitably cause a considerable amount of noise during the construction. Given that you already have trouble sleeping, it might be best to find another place to stay.”

After hearing that, Susan found it reasonable and asked, “Where am I moving to, then?”

“At my area. I bought the house next door as well.”

“Your apartment?”

“Yes. It may not be that large, but it’s sufficient for you, Eleanor, and the chef to live in.”

Susan glanced at Lysander, letting out a soft chuckle. “That works, too. After you finish work, you can come home for dinner.”

“Okay.”

When a mother and her child were having a discussion, it was not appropriate for outsiders to be present.

Thus, Lysander said, “Madam Susan, I’ve finished eating. It’s time for me to head to the hospital for my shift change. Thank you for your hospitality. After I consult with the cardiologist, I will send you the dosage. From then on, you can take your medicine according to the new dosage.”

Susan stood up. “You haven’t eaten much, though. Why don’t you have a little more?”
