The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 475 Determined Not To Stop

This strategy seemed to be quite effective. After the doorbell rang a few times, it fell silent and didn’t ring- again.

Lysander lifted the blanket, attentively listening to the movements outside the door, trying to confirm if he had truly left..

“Yes, this is the room. I’ve been ringing the doorbell for quite some time with no response. Could please open the door for me?”

Immediately after, the sound of a room card being swiped could be heard from outside.

Lysander immediately sat up.

“What are you doing!”

“Hello, miss, I’m the hotel manager. How are you faring right now? Your boyfriend mentioned that your were ill and there was no response even though he kept ringing the doorbell. He was worried you might have fainted and couldn’t open the door, so he asked us to come and check on you.”

Lysander felt as though a fire was consuming her from within. “I didn’t faint. I’m fine. All I want now is to rest, is that okay?”

The manager repeatedly apologized, “I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to disturb your rest.”

“You should go. Tell him to go as well.”

“Yes, yes, my apologies, miss!”

The manager had barely turned around when he heard Josiah say, “She’s running a fever and being difficult with me. If anything were to happen to her in your hotel, no one could bear that responsibility.”

The manager was in a bind. “But we can’t just enter without the guest’s permission.

After a moment of contemplation, Josiah decided not to ring the doorbell this time. Instead, he knocked on the door with his hand. “Lysander, open the door. I have something to discuss with you.”

“Let’s talk about it tomorrow!”

“It’s about work. There’s been a change in the plans for the summit, so open the door. I need to explain things to you.”

There was no response from Lysander.

“Lysander?”

Lysander closed her eyes for a moment.

It seems he’s determined not to stop until he achieves his goal today.

“Wait a moment.

Her complaint was abruptly cut short by Josiah’s next action.

Casually. Josiah tossed his phone inside the door, letting it land on the carpet with a soft thud. Then, without any warning, he embraced Lysander, pushing her back inside with him.

With a backward shove, he shut the door tightly.

Lysander was still a bit dazed when she was spun around in a circle and, with a force that was neither too light nor too heavy, pressed up against the wall.
