His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 479 Are You Hurt

“It hurts!”

He stopped.

Lysander exclaimed, “I need to drink water now! I’m dying of thirst!”

Josialt seemed to hesitate for a moment, as if weighing his options.

Then, he graciously decided to let her off the hook. “I’ll go heat up some water.”

Lysander wasn’t all that knowledgeable in andrology.

However…

Is it really okay to end things so abruptly?

She had assumed she would at least have to wait until this round was over, yet he left just like that?

Josiah picked up the bathrobe she had worn the previous day from the floor and draped it over himself, then turned on the light.

The water had already been poured into the kettle the night before, so it was ready for use. He simply plugged it in, then walked over to draw the curtains.

The sunlight streamed in suddenly, causing Lysander’s eyes to sting painfully. She closed her eyes and turned her head away.

Josiah was not quite accustomed to the sudden brightness either. He squinted slightly as he walked over, reaching out to lift her blanket.

At that moment, Lysander couldn’t care less about her eyes. She quickly held the blanket down and asked, “What else do you plan on doing?”

“Didn’t you just say it hurts? Let me check if it’s injured.”

“No need!”

Josiah said, “I’ve seen it so many times already, so what’s there to be afraid of?”

“If you’ve grown tired of seeing mine then go find someone new!”

“Someone else isn’t hurting, and even if they are, it wasn’t my doing. What am I supposed to look at? Besides, I’ve never seen anyone else’s.”

Lysander still clung tightly to the blanket. “I don’t believe that you haven’t done it with Lysanne before.”

“She was pregnant at that time. Do you really think I’m a monster?”

“Well, I’m still sick!”

“Aren’t I treating you? Look, your fever has already subsided.”
