Chapter 171 I Thought You Understood "The reason I got engaged to Lysanne was because-" "I don't care about your reasons; they have nothing to do with me." Josiah gazed at her intently. "Am I really so unforgivable? Can't we even have a proper conversation?" "Is this how someone who wants to talk properly should be acting?"

Lysander moved her throbbing shoulder and sighed. "Josiah, I made it clear over the phone last time. If our relationship was merely about having a companion, then I'd step aside without a fuss when your beloved returns. After all, we didn't marry out of love; we just wanted companionship. Since you've found someone else, there's nothing more forto say. So what are you doing now?" With his head hung low, Josiah let out a bitter laugh. "I thought you understood." "What should I understand? Is it the sold line, you feel guilty and want to make it up to me?" "Lysander, are you deliberately misinterpreting my words?" "So what? Lysanne left for overseas and married someone else, and you settled foras your rebound. Now that you and Lysanne are having an argument, you want to cback toagain? Do you think I'm out of my mind? Or is it that Lysanne can't have children, so you wantto be your surrogate?" Josiah growled, "No, no! Lysander, our ttogether over these past three years wasn't a lie. I'm human too; I have feelings! I'm not an unfeeling block of wood!" Lysander looked at him, a sarcastic laugh escaping her lips. "Oh, how could I forget? You, Mr. Guerra, are quite the charmer yourself. You don't need to use those words to wound me. I haven't been faring much better than you since we lost our child. During that time, I would have nightmares every night. I dreamt of you standing before me, covered in blood, crying and accusingof killing our child..." The term "child" was like a thorn in Lysander's heart.

I never imagined that the lively and adorable Lysanne from our childhood would turn out this way. Even more surprising is that you were pregnant at this crucial time. You can blme, hit me, yell at me, but you can't denythe chance to defend myself" "All right then, I'll give you the opportunity. Is there anything else you want to say? Try to get it all out at once, but please keep it brief. I have other matters to attend to." "I'm aware that today is the birthday of that man's mother." Lysander lifted her head, meeting his gaze. "What else do you know?" "I also know that you don't like him."

"We've been married for three years, yet you've never done anything like that for me... Seeing you kneel in front of him like that earlier... It was really hard for me." Lysander retorted, "What, is Lysanne not willing?" Josiah frowned and said, "Can we not mention her?"
"Mr. Guerra, if this situation is causing you distress, there's really no need. First off, if you and Lysanne are having intimacy issues, I would suggest you both communicate to resolve them. If that proves difficult, you could always turn to books, or perhaps watch svideos. And if all else fails, you could seek advice from your mutual friend, Aiden.
