Chapter 185 You Were Once The Mother Of My Son
Lysander descended the stairs.
Downstairs, in the familiar spot, was the familiar car.
When Lysander was just dropped off by Zachary a moment ago, the area was virtually empty. The
old residential district had virtually no designated parking spaces. This was merely a narrowne
within the neighborhood.
The Cayenne was huge. Thus, even when parked on the side, it took up half of the street.
Fortunately, this residential area was far from the city center, causing many to relocate. Now, it was
primarily inhabited by older folks, with few young people choosing to live there. The area was
somewhat deste, and even if the roads were upied, no one wouldin.
As soon as Lysander stepped out of the apartment door, Josiah spotted her.
He turned off the engine, exited the car, and leaned against it as he waited.
As Lysander approached, he asked, “Are you going shopping? Or just out for a walk?”
Lysander chuckled. “And what about you? Are you here to share some good news, or to hand out
wedding favors?”
Josiah’s expression darkened slightly as he pulled open the car door. “Can we talk?”
Lysander didn’t want to get in the car. “Let’s talk here.”
Josiah’s hand rested on the car handle, his grip tightening and loosening intermittently. “You can
see this ce from your house window.”
Lysander studied him for a while, then, bypassing him, she opened the back seat door and seated
herself inside.
Regarding the issue of the front passenger seat, the two individuals had experienced more than
one unpleasant incident in the past. Josiah understood Lysander’s intentions but chose not to
comment. Instead, he casually closed the front passenger door and took his ce in the back seat
from the other side.
Inside the car, there was a strong smell of smoke,
Lysander frowned and waved her hand, prompting Josiah to roll down the car window. “I apologize.
My smoking habit has been out of controltely.”
Lysander didn’t say much. She simply asked, “The reason?”
Josiah asked, “What reason?”
“What do you think?”
Josiah didn’t know what to say.
“Turns out, I was just reading too much into things. Recently, you’ve beening to our
neighborhood not because of me, but to scout locations for the amusement park. It makes sense,
really. Whether it’s the geographical location or the development cost, this ce is quite ideal for an
amusement park. As always, you have a keen eye for these things.”

Josiah’s gaze narrowed as he took a deep breath. “I won’t hide it from you. Indeed, Walter
Constructions is
one of Guerra Group’spanies.”
“Then, here’s to wishing you sess in your new endeavor.”
“Lysander, said Josiah, “it’s ins
like this?”
the two of us. I want to have a civil conversation with you. Must we continue
Lysander simply said, “Mr. Guerra, don’t forget that you’re now engaged. Shouldn’t you maintain
some distance from other women?”
Josiah let out a snigger. “Are you just any other woman?”
“Of course.”
“Of course not, you were once the mother of my son!”
In Josiah’s eyes, mes seemed to be flickering in them.
“Lysander, I’ve spent these past few days reflecting on our history. Given the circumstances we
find ourselves in, I think it’s time for some honesty. I did have a pact with Lysanne when we were
young, and I genuinely cared for her. But once she was married overseas, I let go of those feelings.
When I married you, we led a peaceful andfortable life, and I never once considered leaving
you….”
After a pause, he continued, “Lysanne is the only child in her family, hence she is spoilt. I knew this
from a young age. Mrs. Thorne wasn’t in the best of health, so I always amodated her, which
became a habit. When she returned to the country, I thought her actions were just her being
petnt. I never imagined she was trying to reconcile with me. Before she confessed her feelings, I
had actually been nning to distance myself from her and to focus on building a good life with
you.
“But in the end, you still chose her, didn’t you?”
