His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 678 A Man And A Woman Alone Together Perhaps it was due to the he seemed particularly small.

Finished rather skimpy towels, but the one Josiah had wrapped around himself from covering the essential areas, it barely concealed anything at all.

During the course of their marriage, they had already done everything that was expected of them.

But at that moment, in the clear light of day, a man and a woman found themselves alone together in the sroom...

Moreover, they were in a hotel room.

It unexpectedly reminded her of that one night at Apex City.

Lysander cleared his throat softly and asked, "Aren't you cold?" Josiah answered truthfully, "I just finished taking a bath, I'm not cold." "Oh." Lysander walked briskly past him without lifting her head. “I'm off to take a shower. You should hurry and get dressed, be careful not to catch a cold." The bathroom was still filled with lingering warmth. Upon closing the glass door, her vision becsignificantly obstructed. After she undressed and turned on the shower to wash her hair, her sight was further engulfed by a vast expanse of white mist.

Lysander had a particular penchant for cleanliness. Seeing that the bathroom slippers provided were not disposable, she opted to go barefoot like Josiah, stepping onto the clean tiles to bathe.

However, probably because the soap hadn't rinsed off properly, she slipped and fell as soon as she took her first step.

As she stumbled toward the sink, she instinctively let out a gasp instinctively. "Ah-" In the next moment, the bathroom door was pushed open from the outside, and she was caught just in time. The hot water continued to spray down, instantly drenching the two of them.

Josiah gazed at the bright eyes peeking out from beneath Lysander's disheveled hair, his breath catching inexplicably. He quickly turned his face away, muttering in a hoarse voice, “Are you all right?” He didn't dare to let his gaze wander further down. Instead, he focused on the delicate curve of Lysander's jawline, then lifted his eyes toward the white sheets hanging outside the glass partition, using it as a distraction to mask his nervousness.

Lysander brushed off the pain from bumping into the corner of the sink, instinctively wanting to express gratitude. "It's nothing, I just slipped-" She was in the middle of speaking when she suddenly gasped, swiftly pulling away from Josiah's embrace. Turning her back to him and facing the bathroom wall, she spoke in a flustered and embarrassed tone, "You should go.

"...Mmm." : 1 Chapter 678 A Man And A Woman Alone Together dare to linger any longer and dashed out of the bathroom.

T Οι vo found themselves facing cach other once again. One was drenched from head to toe, while the vas stripped of all clothing.

This time, Lysander reacted swiftly. She decisively shut the door and turned the shower on to its maximum, using the sound of the gushing water to drown out the loud pounding of her heart.

Lysander took much longer in the shower than anticipated, utterly unsure of how to face Josiah.

Pretending as if nothing had happened wasn't impossible, it was just that the more one tried to forget. something, the more it would inevitably resurface in their mind. She continued to bathe until the water gradually turned cold, only then did she sluggishly begin to dress and dry her hair.

"Lysander." His muffled voice echoed from outside the door.

Lysander turned off the hairdryer and went on high alert. "What's wrong?" "The hotel bathroom doesn't have any non-slip mats. Here, you can use my discarded clothes as a makeshift mat. This way, you won't slip." Through the foggy glass, she could make out Josiah's silhouette.

He held a bundle of fabric in his hand, likely the clothes he had changed out of.

"I'll turn around and toss you the clothes. Is that all right?" Suddenly, Lysander felt her lips were somewhat parched.

However, the ground was incredibly slippery, and she was afraid she might fall again.

Though they were in town, the medical facilities were far from ideal. Josiah was still nursing his injuries. Who would take care of him if she got injured too? After considering carefully in her heart, Lysander agreed, saying, "All right then." "Okay," cJosiah's reply.

Creak. The bathroom door was nudged open from the outside, creating a small gap.

Right after, a bundle of clothing was swiftly tossed at her feet, and then the bathroom door quickly shut again.

He cleared his throat, speaking softly. "I don't want them anymore. Feel free to step on them, it's no big deal." "Oh." "There's nothing else, you may continue." 2/4 15.33 Thu, 4 Chapter 678 A Man And A Woman Alone Together Josiah I hat.

Finished Lysander looked at the clothes scattered on the ground, stepped on them, and continued blow-drying her hair. When Lysander pushed the door open, Josiah was already standing by the window furthest from the bathroom. He had slightly cracked open the window and stood rooted to the ground.

It was unclear what thoughts were occupying his mind.

As a result, the temperature inside the room had becsomewhat chilly.

Lysander couldn't help but sneeze.

Josiah first made sure to tightly shut the window before he turned to look in her direction. Seeing her barefoot on the floor, he didn't hesitate to pick her up and gently placed her on the bed.

There were certain advantages to a small room. For instance, he was able to complete a series of actions smoothly and effortlessly, all within less than three steps.

The two of them glanced at each other, a hint of lingering awkwardness still present in the air.

Finally, it was Josiah who cleared his throat, breaking the silence. "The clothes you chose forfit very well."

The bath towel he had previously worn into the bathroom was now m thoroughly soaked. was Currently hanging on a rack to dry. What he was wearing now was something Lysander had bought from the mall. Upon hearing his words, Lysander couldn't help but give him a onceover.

Upon seeing the man in his thirties, the slightly baggy sweatshirt he wore didn't seem out of it of place at all rather, ittent him @youthful air.

Simultaneously, his overall demeanor seemed to have gained a touch of refinement. If it hadn't been mentioned beforehand, no one would have believed that this outfit was actually purchased from a wholesale market in a small town.

"I'm glad it fits," Lysander replied curtly.

Josiah did not respond any further.

Instead, he half-crouched by the window, gently grasping her ankle, He positioned her foot on his leg and asked, "Why didn't you mention that your foot was also injured? I genuinely thought you had only been scratched by sgrass and pebbles." Throughout the journey, Lysander moved with ease, showing no signs of injury at all.

Had he known it would turn out this way, he really shouldn't have let her drive for so long to get to town.

"It's nothing serious, I just twisted it a bit while running with Rhizone yesterday." "Letsee." He knelt on one knee, gently placing her ankle on his own knee.

Lysander chuckled lightly. “Do you understand the structure of the human skeleton?" 3/4 15:33 Thu, 4 Jul wwa.

Indeed, it was a bit swollen. After all, she had twisted it once again in the bathroom just now after twisting it yesterday.

However, it probably wasn't too severe. The pain was dull, not sharp.

"Take a break, I'm stepping out for a bit." Josiah stood up, volunteering to make a trip out of the hotel. When he returned, he held an additional bag from the pharmacy.
