The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 690 Injured And Resting

Dillon immediately pinned the blame on Lysander, making it seem as though she was the one who started the trouble.

Josiah’s brows furrowed slightly, and his expression had already turned sour.

In a hushed voice, Tiffany quickly said, “My father and I didn’t intentionally delay for such a long time, Jose. The main reason is that I’ve never been to the countryside before, and he was worried he wouldn’t be able to take care of me properly. So, he called for some extra help from home, which is why things got a bit complicated.”

The people who had gone there with her picked up on her subtle hint, hastily nodding in agreement.

“Indeed, Mr. Guerra. We can all vouch for it. Mr. Lanister and the young lady have been particularly hardworking these past couple of days. They’ve been on the move constantly, asking questions along the way. They’ve never had to endure such hardship before.”

“Finding this vast mountain range was exceptionally challenging-”

“Did you really ask your way here?” Lysander asked, her expression slightly odd.

Josiah’s expression remained unchanged, but a silent scoff echoed in the depths of his heart.

Sensing something was off. Tiffany tried to use her innocent girl–like appearance to feign ignorance and get by. However, Dillon hastily admitted it because he was too eager to please Josiah.

“We did! If I knew those people, would I really need to struggle so much? Couldn’t I just have them show me the way?”

Dillon didn’t believe his subordinates would talk nonsense. As for the time of departure, it was true that he had set out from Harborbrook that very day. However, he had to deal with some trouble caused by the hired thugs along the way.
