The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 410 Do Not Plead With Josiah

Daphne muttered. “Private jet… Who owns a private jet? The Sutton family! Would the Sutton family have one? I’ll call Aiden right now!”

Beep Beep

“Hello? Ms. Everhart?”

The call connected, but the other end was filled with a cacophony of voices. The sounds were chaotic, and faint strains of a song could be heard.

Daphne sounded slightly panicky. “Aiden, does your family own a private jet?”

“What? A water jet?”

Daphne’s teeth chattered in anxiety. “I’m asking if your family owns a private jet!”

“A jet? No. What’s the matter? Are you planning a vacation?” He seemed to have covered the receiver while whispering to the person on the other end of the line, “Very soon, very soon…

“Vacation, my foot! Where are you now?”

“Josiah is playing the host. We’re out singing karaoke. Are you joining?

“Josiah?”

That’s right.” Aiden said. “You better not come. Josiah has been quite irritable lately. If you two meet, you’ll likely turn the karaoke bar upside down. They’re calling me to sing now, so I’ll hang up if there’s nothing else.”

“Wait, Aiden! Aiden!”

The next second, all Daphne could hear was the busy tone on the line.

She was so infuriated that she almost threw her phone away.

In the ICU not far away, Delores was covered in tubes. Through a pane of transparent glass, Lysander glanced at the readings on the monitoring equipment, her heart sinking further.

Rufus was urgently speaking with the nurse. Although the actual words couldn’t be made out, one could see an apologetic expression on the nurse’s face as she continuously shook her head.

After some contemplation, Lysander made a phone call.
