His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 747 Relationships Vary In Intimacy Alarm bells were ringing in Josiah's heart.

Lysander had a deep passion for her work. The mere mention of attending a medical seminar had her eyes lighting up. He knew he had to do something, or he'd likely spend the next two days solely taking care of Aurora.

"Dr. Sutton," Josiah interrupted before she could express her thoughts. Then, he added in a casual tone, "You bumping into us while attending a medical seminar is indeed a coincidence. May I ask which hotel you're staying at? If it's inconvenient for us to move together, you can just give us the address."

If it weren't for his fear of damaging his image in Lysander's eyes, the words he would have spoken then might not have been so polite. But even as he tried to restrain himself, his tone still grew colder.

Upon seeing the situation, Lysander could only offer Adrian an apologetic smile, hoping he wouldn't take it to heart.

In that moment, the lines between close and distant relations were immediately drawn.

Adrian noticed this subtle detail, a wave of bitterness welling up in his heart. However, it was quickly replaced by a sense of relief. It had been quite a while since he had taken the initiative to reach out to Lysander, and she had not considered reaching out to him either.

The night market was bustling with voices, yet it seemed as though he existed in distinctly separate world from them.

Adrian mentioned the name of the hotel, then turned to Lysander and said, "The medical seminar is being held at the exhibition center nearby. You can find it easily with GPS. If you decide to go, just give me a call when you get there."

With a look of surprise on her face, Lysander asked, "If today is the first day of the conference, you must have arrived yesterday, right?"

At first glance, this question seemed unrelated to their previous conversation. However, Adrian didn't question it and seriously replied, "I arrived in the afternoon. I had some matters to attend to in Harborbrook, so I had to rush over here. As a result, I almost arrived late."

"I arrived with Josiah yesterday afternoon," Lysander revealed. Upon realizing their schedules hadn't coincided to the extent of even sharing the same flight, she let out a small laugh before adding, "And we're also staying at the same hotel."

Adrian seemed completely unaware of this, his eyes revealing genuine surprise. "Well, that's quite a coincidence," he said.

Josiah's hostility did not lessen in the slightest. He outright dismissed the idea of mere coincidence, implying something more as he said, "Yeah, it's just too coincidental."

"If I were to tell you that the hotel was actually booked by the event organizers, would you believe me, Mr. Guerra?" Adrian gave a wry smile.

"Believe? Why wouldn't I?" Josiah's laugh had a hint of nonchalance. "There are plenty of coincidences in this world."
