The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 457 Josiah Did It On Purpose

Tiffany also felt a bit awkward. “I’m going to go greet my friends from overseas. I’ll be leaving first”

Having said that, she too picked up her skirt and left.

Soon, only the two of them and Lysanne, who had been left behind, remained there.

Lysanne had made quite fool of herself, so her face had turned pale with anger. She could no longer maintain her facade of gentleness, so she glared fiercely at Lysander, gritting her teeth as she spoke, “So you’ve shown up too? You aren’t invited to Tillany’s birthday party, are you? Are your regretting it now? It’s too late for regrets for Tiffany is about to secure her position as Mrs. Guerral”

Lysander remained impassive as she looked at the helpless and frustrated Lysanne. She did not even want to utter a single word.

Lysanne was deeply hurt and retorted resentfully, “Stop acting so high and mighty. You’re no saint either…”

“Shut up!” Daphne couldn’t take it anymore. She stomped forward in her high heels and said, “I’m so angry right now and I have nowhere to vent. If you dare to spout nonsense here again, just see if I won’t shove my size 40 shoe into your size 39 mouth!”

Lysanne was known for being passive–aggressive that she was especially fearful of bold individuals like Daphne. She didn’t dare to look at her. Instead, she continued to glare resentfully at Lysander who remained unresponsive.

Daphne stepped in front of her, blocking her view. “What are you staring at? Let me remind you that the one who embarrassed you was Josiah. If you want to blame someone, blame him. What’s the point of blaming Lysander?”

Lysanne found herself unable to outargue her that her face alternated between shades of pale and flushed. “I refuse to talk to a shrew!”

Then, she turned her head and walked away.

Daphne rolled her eyes really hard. “What on earth…”

At that moment, the lights above suddenly shifted, casting an ethereal glow that hinted the banquet was about to officially commence.
