Lysanne still wouldn’t believe it. She held out her hand in front of him, saying, “Give me the phone.”

Josiah closed his eyes “Cut it out, will you?”

“Give it to me!” Seeing that Josiah wouldn’t budge, Lysanne directly reached out to try to retrieve thephone from his pants pocket.

Josiah attempted to push her hand away, but considering her bulging belly, he didn’t dare to use toomuch strength. In the end, he could only watch as her greasy hand delved into his pocket and pulledout the phone.

“Go ahead and check. I’m going to take a shower.

He headed straight to the bathroom. The warm water poured over his head, as if washing awaylingering smell of alcohol in his breath.

rush.

His mind was in turmoil. Until today, he had genuinely wished for Lysander to live well, especially sincehe had wronged her in the first place. But just a while ago, he saw her get out of the taxi and all theway to the hospital. She looked so well at the hospital, exuding positivity and confidence as if thedivorce never occurred.

This made him feel uncomfortable once more.

In just a month, she had undergone an abortion, a divorce, and even the postpartum period. FromDaphne’s posts on social media, he knew that the abortion had probably taken a huge toll on her, andshe still experienced occasional abdominal pain. Yet whenever he saw her recently, she appeared tobe in high spirits.

During the day, she conducted consultations with gentleness and patience. Even when Lysanne tried toprovoke her, she remained unruffled, simply telling Lysanne to take the mushroom soup back. Whencalled back for overtime work at night, she continued to go all out. She was the same as she had beena month ago; in fact, she looked even more composed and confident.

Josiah suddenly felt conflicted. He hoped for Lysander’s swift recovery, but when he witnessed herimprovement, an indescribable bitterness surged within him.

There was a dinner party earlier in the day where he had a few drinks. He had intended to call adesignated driver for a ride back home, but for some reason, perhaps due to the alcohol clouding hisjudgment, he subconsciously drove to the hospital parking lot and waited to pick her up after work.After standing in the parking lot for a while, he noticed the streetlights flickering on. Only then did hesuddenly realize how late it was. She had probably left work hours ago,

Did she do the same when Lysanne had an accident? After receiving a call from the hospital, sheswiftly took a taxi to the hospital and then rushed in to save someone. She probably didn’t anticipatethat the person she rescued this time would be the one who shattered her marriage.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

There was a knock on the bathroom door. It was Lysanne. “Josiah, are you done showering?”

“Not yet. Why?”

“Come out. I have something to ask you.”

“Can’t it wait a little? I’m still in the shower.”

“No, I won’t feel at case until I get some answers! Come out now.”

Josiah, clad in a bathrobe, emerged and saw Lysanne standing at the bathroom door with her armscrossed. She appeared ready to interrogate him, confidently tilting her chin up and turning her phone’sscreen toward him. “Explain this. What’s going on?”
