His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 749 Kind Words Cost Nothing Lysander didn't have any objections. She chuckled. "All right, let's continue calling him White Coat. I've been feeling guilty lately, I've been unable to care for him properly despite having him around. I've heard that dogs have a strong need for affection, I won't hold him back anymore."

Adrian readily agreed. "I'll take good care of it. If you want to come and see it, you're always welcome. However, it's currently going through an awkward phase and doesn't quite look like a Samoyed, more like a little monkey."

Upon the mention of White Coat, he enthusiastically described its recent condition for a while.

Upon seeing that he had truly managed to step out, Lysander felt a genuine surge of happiness for him. As they were parting, she said gently, "Thank you for being willing to share all this with me, I must be going now."

Adrian didn't beat around the bush. He responded with straightforward confidence, "Then, see you next time."

When Lysander returned to the main hall with her plentiful notes, Josiah and Aurora were no longer where they had been. Recalling the plan he had shared with her, she followed the signs for the other activities.

Ultimately, she found the pair in front of a wall adorned with pages from children's books.

Josiah was a man of his word. He indeed brought Aurora, who was just shy of her first birthday, to the exhibition. Seeing Aurora's interest in the vibrant patterns, he patiently began to narrate the stories behind them.

"On his first venture out, the little bunny encountered his friend, the lamb..."

His voice was rich and resonant, and it didn't seem out of place when he started to tell a fairy tale. In no time, he had attracted the attention of other children who were interested in the story but couldn't recognize all the words. These youngsters, none of whom were taller than his thigh, were all utterly engrossed in his storytelling.

In order to ensure they could hear him clearly, Josiah decided to hold Aurora and squat down halfway while he narrated the story. Only after he finished, did he rise to his feet again.

Crouching down for long periods of time was quite a burden for him, especially since he had only recently recovered from a bone injury and was still in the recuperation period. His knees were visibly trembling, a clear sign that he was enduring pain.

Lysander quietly walked over and promptly assisted Josiah. His actions momentarily stiffened, a natural instinct to be wary of others around him. However, once he realized who it was her, he relaxed and asked, "How did the presentation go?"

"The speaker is highly skilled, I gained a lot from it," said Lysander, releasing her hold once she was sure the other person was steady on their feet.
