His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 743 Lock Onto The Most Relevant Person Recently, Lysander had been wholly engrossed in medical literature reviews, her thoughts showing signs of gradually returning to a path of pure rationality. She didn't give a thought to the significance of the time. Instead, she asked, "Doesn't that mean you won't be able to celebrate Christmas with Madam Susan?" Subsequently, she cast her mind back to how it would affect her, adding following scontemplation, "The timing doesn't seem quite right. We can't just leave the elders alone at hfor Christmas while we go out and enjoy ourselves. Then, there's Michelle. If we go on a vacation without bringing her along, she will surely givean earful later." Josiah watched the peaceful scene unfold from the side, a moment so perfect that he would willingly wish for tto stand still forever.

"Don't worry. They won't be spending Christmas alone at home. I've arranged a vacation for my mom and Mdm. Laura, even giving them a few options for destinations. They chose to visit Saintnam, Machia, and Thymion. Michelle will also be going. If we were to stay, we would be all alone." He quietly handled many matters recently, so it wasn't surprising that he silently made vacation arrangements. Moreover, his planning was meticulous.

After sthought, Lysander agreed. However, she was somewhat worried about Laura.

"My mom has never been abroad and doesn't know foreign languages. With Michelle and Madam Susan accompanying her this time, there won't be any communication issues. But..." She seemed lost in thought, contemplating persuading Josiah to change their destination, suggesting they all go to Saintnam, Machia, and Thymion together. However, before she could voice her thoughts, he preempted her, saying, "Actually, Mr. Howard and Mdm. Molly will also be tagging along. They can look after each other." With Howard joining them, there really wasn't much to worry about this time.

Before setting off, Lysander meticulously packed their luggage. After much hesitation, she sent a message to Nieva, informing her of their upcoming destination, on the off chance that she returned to find them gone after she was done with her errands and wanted to pick Aurora up.

Yet, just like the videos and photos of Aurora she sent previously, that message received no reply, not even a read receipt.

Nieva seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth, with no news on her anywhere. If it weren't for the occasional Lionhart family's marital issues on the economic news and restructuring of the company, Lysander would have been too anxious to resist prying into the matter herself.

Perhaps it's because she wants to keep Aurora's whereabouts completely hidden from Elio.

Lysander exhaled and double-checked Aurora's necessities. For their vacation, they prepared five suitcases in total, three large and two small. The large suitcases were filled entirely with baby products.

Josiah insisted that his injuries had healed, adamant about doing everything himself. Lysander couldn't persuade him otherwise, so she could only watch as he wheeled the luggage for check-in, then loaded it into the car after they had landed.

This time, they went to an unfamiliar city. Guerra Group's local branch office was only getting off the ground, so the project manager initially thought there was sissue upon hearing that the CEO was visiting. He apprehensively hurried over in person after receiving news of it. However, he was of no help.

The project manager watched apprehensively as Josiah personally loaded the luggage. He asked repeatedly, "Mr. Guerra, is there really nothing else you need? Perhaps making a site visit or something?" Josiah remained as calm as ever. "No. I just cover for leisure. Last year's performance was pretty good, so keep up the good work." The more the project manager observed the man's pure noncommittal attitude, the more uneasy he felt deep down.

As per the saying, lock onto the most relevant person when dealing with a particular issue.

So, he shifted his attention to Lysander, who looked far more approachable.

"Mrs. Guerra, the hotel arrangements have been made. A car along and a driver will also be at the service of Mr. Guerra and you around the clock. Would you liketo arrange for a local guide as well? My assistant is a local and is quite competent at his job. He would certainly make a good tour guide." He had established quite a reputation for himself at the branch office, but he was caught off guard by the impromptu honeymoon plan by Josiah.

Lysander knew he was reading too much into things and tried to reassure him, saying, "No, it's really fine. The primary reason we cthis twas just to have a vacation. It's enough that you're aware of our arrival. There's no need to tell anyone else for now." The project manager nodded solemnly. "Oh, I understand now. This is a secret visit." As he spoke, he glanced at Aurora in the baby stroller before adding, "Mrs. Guerra, rest assured that I will also keep the matter regarding the child secret. Given Mr. Guerra's unique identity, it's understandable that he has concerns." No, you don't understand.

Lysander was utterly astounded by his imagination. She wanted to clarify things yet feared that the more she explained, the more complicated it would become. In the end, she merely made a request. "Keeping it secret alone is fine. But could you please stop callingMrs. Guerra?" Even back when she was still married, she hadn't been comfortable with the title, feeling as if she was tied down to Josiah. After she had relied on Guerra Group's authority for such a long time, hearing this title only brought her distress. Now that she was on vacation, she naturally avoided it whenever possible.

Aurora's matter was temporarily unexplainable, but at the very least, her relationship with Josiah could still be sorted out.

The project manager understood implicitly. "Sure, Mrs. Guerra." Lysander no longer wished to talk to him.

When Josiah finished loading the luggage and cto call her to get into the car, he happened to overhear that disjointed conversation. He immediately pulled the project manager aside and had swords with him. The issue was thus resolved smoothly.

Not only did the project manager stop fretting over whether to arrange for a local guide, but he also began to address Lysander as Ms. Thorne.

On the way to the hotel, Lysander couldn't help but ask Josiah, who drove, "How did you manage to make things clear to him? I thought I was concise enough, but he still ended up overthinking." "I told him we're here for our honeymoon, so our itinerary must remain confidential," said Josiah, his voice light and cheerful.

How is this different from using one misunderstanding to cover up another?

Lysander's eyes widened in shock. "Aren't you afraid of sparking new rumors?" Josiah seriously said, "It's better than them believing for real that I'm here on a secret visit, then following us around for the next few days, right?" Lysander ended up convinced. Something seemed amiss, but there was really no better solution at that moment. While Josiah's excuse was certainly outrageous, it swiftly resolved the problem.

The trip was meant as a vacation.

Hence, they didn't plan any itinerary el in advance or intend to specifically visit local tourist hotspots but merely aimed to go along with the flow with Aurora and experience the local lifestyle. The climate of Norwal City was strikingly different from that of Harborbrook. It could be said that it was spring all year round.

Seeing that the day was still young,

Josiah left the hotel with Lysander after taking a rest, pushing Aurora CO19 out in a baby strollex They C N meandered aimlessly along the trail indicated by the navigation app, much like any ordinary couple. They settled on a restaurant that appeared to be brimming with local charm for their dinner.

Aurora had already been with them long enough to start eating solid food. Lysander saw her eagerly watching, her big eyes filled with curiosity. After ordering her foowith the restaurant owner, she added, "Giveanother plate of pasta. Please hold off on all seasonings except for the soup base." The restaurant owner immediately understood her intention. "You want to let the child a taste, right? There's no need to order separately. I'll give you a small complimentary serving. It would be a waste to order a full serving." Lysander smiled. "Thank you."
