The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 558 Carry Me To The Bed

Josiah cradled the cat in his arms and consciously retreated from the bedroom. Not forgetting to close the door behind him, he left Lysander alone to change her clothes and freshen up.

Lately, Lysander had been holed up in her study, diligently catching up on Thorne Constructions and Energies documents. There was no need for her to leave the house unless absolutely necessary. After a quick freshening up, she tied up her hair and sat down at the dining table.

After a few days of rest, she had finally regained some of her vitality. Her bare face had gained a touch of rosy color.

Josiah held the Ragdoll kitten in one hand and lifted the insulation cover specially placed over the oatmeal with the other. “Breakfast is relatively light. Have a taste first,” he said.

The variety of dishes brought over on the cart wasn’t as extravagant as it was during dinner, but there were still quite a few plates laid out in all their glory.

Lysander stirred the chicken broth, which was the main dish, with a spoon. Immediately, her appetite was significantly aroused. These side dishes might have seemed light, but they surprisingly suited her palate. Even from her perspective as a doctor, the nutritional balance was very reasonable.

It was only fitting that the chefs in the resort were paid well.

After eating nearly half a bowl of oatmeal, Lysander suddenly paused in her spoon movements, belatedly noticing the gaze that had fallen on her.

Josiah stated that when taking care of a kitten, one should only focus on the kitten. He sat by its side without even touching his utensils.

Lysander suddenly felt bad. Seeing that there was only one bowl of oatmeal, she found it awkward to share it with him. Instead, she pushed an unused cutlery in his direction and asked, “Why aren’t you having breakfast?”

Josiah shook his head. “I’ve already eaten.”

“Oh.”

Surprisingly, Lysander didn’t find it odd. He appeared to be so busy that he could barely manage his daily. affairs, let alone personally take care of a cat. Therefore, it seemed normal for him to rise early for breakfast.

Josiah gently stroked the Ragdoll kitten’s small head as he waited for a moment. Seeing that Lysander really wasn’t going to ask any further, he reluctantly proceeded to say, “When I woke up, it was still early. I saw you were still asleep, so I went for a morning run. When I got back, you were still out like a light, so I took the liberty to freshen up again. I went downstairs and had breakfast afterward. That was when I prepared your breakfast.”

Lysander replied nonchalantly, You’ve certainly been busy this morning.”
