The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 517 Lysander Is Unwell

Suddenly, someone touched her arm.

She turned to meet Daphne’s gaze, which was filled with surprise and disbelief.

Smiling, she nodded at her friend to indicate she had noticed it too.

Having learned from their experiences, of course they grasped the situation upon seeing the look in Tiffany’s eyes.

Daphne muttered under her breath, “What a troublemaker.”

“Ms. Thorne, why aren’t you saying anything?” Tiffany asked.

Before Lysander could even speak, Josiah interrupted her with a frown, “This matter has nothing to do with Lysander.”

“Hmm, you’re right. It’s essentially a personal matter between you arld Lyss. I shouldn’t get Ms. Thorne involved.”

Lysander chuckled and took a step toward Lysanne. “It actually has something to do with me. Ms. Lysanne, you came today to meet Mr. Guerra today because you want him to play the role of a fair judge and have him distribute the Thorne family’s property, is that correct?”

The hatred in Lysanne’s eyes was palpable. “Dad is old, and mom is bedridden. Moreover, Josiah has always been the one managing Thorne Constructions and Energies‘ affairs.”

“Like you said, Mr. Guerra is just managing it on behalf of Howard and Molly. The company’s still their personal property. Mr. Guerra doesn’t have the authority to make decisions for them,” Lysander explained.

Lysanne took a deep breath, casting a resentful look at her. “Even now, you’re still addressing him formally as ‘Mr. Guerra‘ See, Josiah? She has no intention of being devoted to you. She’s only working with you to claim the Thorne family’s wealth and use your connections and power. Dr. Thorne here has always been a very rational person. She knows what the best choice for herself. Your efforts have only ever been one- sided!

“Why are you wasting your time talking to her?” Josiah walked over with Aurora and took Lysander’s hand. “Let’s go back.”

“Hold on, I’m not finished speaking.”

Lysander turned around and addressed her, “If I were you, I’d take the millions that Howard gave you and either continue living a lavish lifestyle abroad or settle down peacefully here in the country. You said it yourself your parents have raised you for so many years, so they wouldn’t abandon you if you were in trouble. Mr. Guerra would also consider the long–standing relationship between our families and wouldn’t harm you. This would be the best outcome for you. But if you insist on being insatiable and péstering us relentlessly…

Lysander glanced at Tiffany, her voice icy as she continued, “You’d be the first to die.”

“The best outcome? You took everything from me. What right do you have to tell me to accept my fate? I can tell Josiah is on your side now. Fine. I’ll go to the hospital to talk to Dad and Mom. They love me dearly, and I’m sure they won’t-
