The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 549 The Story Sounds Familiar

Josiah had recently suffered Maverick’s verbal abuse and took Daphne’s hostility in his stride, not letting it bother him.

“I sec.” Nieva said with a hint of interest while nodding her head. “So, does his securing my investment for you lessen your dislike for him a little?”

Daphine pouted. “Business is business, but I still strongly disagree with him pursuing Lysander.”

“Hmm. Mr. Guerra, did you hear that? You’ve got a long and difficult task ahead of you!”

Josiah rubbed his temples. “I’m working on it. I know I’ve made mistakes, so I have to correct them. Only by showing others that I’ve changed can I gain their acceptance.”

Lysander didn’t have the time to pay him any attention. Instead, she noticed a hint of reluctance in Nieva’s smile.

Hiking would usually allow one to relax and unwind, but compared to before she left, she seemed to have acquired a subtle hint of melancholy.

“Ms. Lionhart,” Lysander carefully began, “Actually, I saw someone at the hotel last night.”

“Who is it?”

This time, it was Josiah who responded, “Elio.”

The smile on Nieva’s face vanished instantly. She lifted her coffee and took a sip, a bitter taste lingering. “What did he tell you?” she asked.

Lysander’s voice showed a hint of concern. “He said he needed to see you urgently. When he couldn’t find you, he left in a hurry. Did he manage to reach you?”

“Yeah.” Nieva put down her cup, then playfully covered Aurora’s ears. Her voice dripped with sarcasm as she said, “He’s the sort who won’t stop until he gets what he wants. If he traveled all this way to find me, he has to see me no matter what.”

Josiah felt that Elio was like a puzzle he couldn’t solve, probing further, “What exactly did he want from you?”
