The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 470 A Resounding Rebuff

Lysander asked, “What’s so urgent?”

Following Josiah’s instructions, Carol explained, “It’s the invitation to next week’s summit. The invitation for Thorne Constructions and Energies has always been sent to Mr. Guerra. This year is the same, so I sent it to you to avoid any delays.”

“Okay, thank you,” Lysander said. “Where did you send it?”

“To the address where you’re currently living”

Lysander hesitated. “But I’m not at home right now, and I won’t be returning soon.”

Garol quickly asked, “Where are you now?”

“Central Hospital.”

Carol breathed a sigh of relief. “No problem, there’s still time to change it. I’ll take care of it now.”

About half an hour later, the summit invitation was delivered to Lysander. She opened it to find a single, elegantly folded card.

The design was indeed tasteful–pristine hard paper with gold–embossed calligraphy in both Ecronese and Stounian.

It was formal and of high quality.

Seeing she clearly wanted to go, Howard encouraged her, “Don’t worry about the hospital. I and the caregivers will take good care of your mom. You have nothing to worry about.”

“Sure.”

Howard reassured her, “Your mom and I both believe in you.”

Lysander called home.

Laura said that the house situation was settled, and Michelle was excitedly shopping for her upcoming overseas summer camp. Her father had gone out drinking with his old friends, and she herself was at Camila’s house.

Laura said, “Zach is busy with work, and I have some free time, so I came to accompany her. We’ve been friends for so many years, we should take care of each other.”

Laura didn’t have many friends, and Camila was her best friend.

Lysander didn’t want her mother to become a full–time housewife only revolving around her husband and children.
