The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 499 I Rejected Him

During the evening, there were hardly any people in the garden. Such a situation couldn’t simply be explained away as a mere coincidence.

Amelia blinked, twirling a strand of hair, she said, “You’re Lysander, right? Don’t get me wrong. I’m not referring to the one who’s still hung up on Mr. Guerra.”

It seemed she knew quite a bit about Josiah.

Lysander admitted. “Did you need something from me?”

“It wasn’t anything significant. I just didn’t expect to run into you here, so I couldn’t help but take a few extra glances.” Amelia spoke with a laugh in her voice, her tone surprisingly not off–putting

Amelia tilted her head and let out a chuckle, abruptly changing the subject. “Ms. Thorne, your outfit is quite stunning,” she praised. “Would you mind telling me where you got it? I’d love to try something

“So, you’ve followed me all this time just to ask about my clothes?” Lysander naturally didn’t believe it and stated bluntly, “What I’m wearing might not exactly match your style.”

She went straight to the greenhouse, found a rocking chair, sat down, and asked, “You have something to say, just spit it out. We met at the karaoke lounge last time. Your name is Amelia Scott, right?”
