The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 445 Shot Himself In The Foot

Actually, even if the sliding glass door had been unlocked, with his state of mind at the time, he would have chosen to smash it anyway.

Lysander naturally continued to ask, “Is your hand okay?”

Josiah’s voice softened slightly. “It’s fine.”

His hands appeared broad and dependable, even though they were injured, they didn’t look frightening.

Lysander said seriously, “I’m really grateful for your help.”

The despair of that moment still lingered in her heart.

If Josiah hadn’t shown up, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Josiah didn’t use the excuse of not being able to sleep to brush off Lysander. He sat down on the sofa and told her the truth: “When you went out the past two days, didn’t you notice the mark next to your front door?”

“What kind of mark?”

“A circle with a check mark in the middle.”

Lysander shook her head.

“That’s a mark left by a thief checking out the place.

“What does that mark mean? My house doesn’t have anything valuable, and my daily items are pretty cheap.”

“Female, living alone,” Josiah explained. “When I saw it yesterday, I asked Harry to find out. Harry found out that places marked like this are usually targeted within three days. So tonight, I didn’t dare sleep, worried something might happen to you.
