His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 170 Can You Man Up
Panic was evident in Aiden's voice. "Josiah, please don't-"
Upon entering, three of the four people locked eyes.
Lysander didn't bother lifting her head as she was half-crouched on the ground, inspecting Zachary's injury.
Zachary, on the other hand, recognized Josiah. "M-Mr. Guerra?"
Yet, Josiah paid him no mind, his gaze shifting downward to land on Lysander.
Zachary immediately endured the pain and turned around, doing his best to shield Lysander with his legs. Then, with a hint of apology, he said to Josiah, "I'm sorry, but we're dealing with a bit of a unique situation. My friend is helping me out."
His earlier position of standing sideways was actually better, as at least everyone could clearly see what was happening. But to protect Lysander and prevent others from seeing her face, Zachary abruptly turned around, shielding her from sight.
In this way, Lysander's face was no longer visible.
Nonetheless, this position...
He stood there, while she semi-crouched before him, both of them drenched...
Aiden took a sharp intake of breath before quickly reaching out to grasp Josiah's arm. "Josiah, let's get out of here first..."
Josiah flung his hand away, a storm brewing in his eyes. "You stood outside for ages without daring to come in because you saw them... like this?"
Aiden's face turned ashen. "To be honest, I didn't actually see anything. I had just reached the door when I heard Lysander's voice. She was saying something about how his pants were too tight so she could only tear them, and that it was quicker if she helped him. There was also the sound of a man gasping for breath. How could I not guess what was happening inside? I didn't dare to enter..."
Upon hearing these words, Zachary's face immediately changed. He frantically waved his hands and said, “No, it's not like that. It's not what you're thinking! We were just..."
"That's enough," Lysander suddenly announced, slowly rising to her feet. She nonchalantly turned off the faucet and brushed the damp hair sticking to her face, acting as though nothing had happened. "Let's go, Zachary."
Zachary slightly furrowed his brows. "Lysander, I need to clarify things for you..."
"What is there to explain? We don't even know each other, so it'll just be a waste of words. Let's go outside. With me here, it's not appropriate for other gentlemen to come in."
"All right then, Zachary conceded. He had no choice but to let her support him as they slowly made their way outside.
As she was about to leave the men's restroom, Josiah suddenly called out to her, "Lysander!"
She halted.
Josiah took three steps toward her, staring in disbelief at her drenched figure. He was particularly drawn to the vibrant red of her lips, adorned with glistening droplets of water. "You..." His Adam's apple bobbed before he went on, "You're with him?"

Zachary was somewhat taken aback. "Lysander, you know Mr. Guerra?"
"Old Mrs. Guerra was a patient of mine, so I've met with Mr. Guerra on a few occasions. We aren't exactly
close."
"Oh, I see."
Josiah abruptly pulled Lysander by her wrist, his eyes filled with fury. "You did it with him... in the men's restroom? Lysander, it hasn't been that long since we last saw each other. How could you have changed like this?"
Tilting her head, Lysander squinted her eyes and chuckled. "Mr. Guerra, are we that familiar with each
other?"
Josiah retorted, "Aren't we familiar with each other?"
"Mr. Guerra, your words are quite intriguing. How much is my salary? What's the password to my phone? What's my favorite color? Which movie do I like the most?"
Josiah was momentarily speechless.
"Let go," Lysander said. "It wouldn't be good if Mrs. Guerra sees us. After all, today is your engagement party, so it wouldn't do if any misunderstandings arise because of this."
She reached out, intending to brush off the large hand tightly wrapped around her wrist, but Josiah suddenly tightened his grip and dragged her away.
Zachary, filled with worry, took two quick steps forward. "Lysander! Mr. Guerra, what are you "
"Hold it." Aiden blocked his path, "Josiah and Ms. Thorne have something to discuss. You better not interfere."

several times.

Zachary noticed his gaze and instinctively turned away to avoid his stare.
Aiden burst into laughter, giving him a pat on the shoulder. "You lasted rather shortly, didn't you, buddy?"
Zachary's face turned beet red. "No, you've all misunderstood. It's not at all what you're thinking...
Lysander was practically half-lifted, half-dragged by Josiah, ultimately finding herself forcibly pulled into the
restaurant's storeroom.
With a loud bang, the door to the storeroom was slammed shut.
She massaged her wrist, which was aching from how hard he had gripped it
earlier.
Before she could even react, a surge of intense pain came from her shoulder.

"Lysander! Do you even realize what you're doing?" Josiah closed the door with haste, nearly lunging at her as he seized her by the shoulders. "If you're upset, you can hit me or yell at me, but why would you demeant yourself like this!" The content is on
