The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 535 I Am With You

Upon seeing that the patient was still there, the nurse immediately left again.

Josiah led Howard into the room, greeting the elders with the utmost- respect, “Mr. Maverick, Mrs. Thorne, how are you?”

Lysander’s breath hitched when she saw that Josiah had not only followed her there but also brought Howard along.

The situation that day seemed even more chaotic than usual.

Maverick was still seething with anger. Unable to contain his rage, he stood up and pointed at Josiah, demanding, “Get out of here!”

Maverick didn’t know Howard, but seeing him with Josiah, he was only slightly polite when he asked, “Who are you? If you’re with him, you better not stick around here!”

After the incident where Lysanne had come knocking on the door to stir. up trouble, Maverick became highly wary of any outsiders who approached him.

On her bed, Michelle was utterly bewildered.

Lysander gently patted her hand. Then, before Laura could speak, she stepped forward to stop Maverick. “Dad, we’re in a hospital. Please lower your voice.”

Only then did Maverick lower his voice, giving Josiah a direct shove.

Josiah remained unflinching, taking on his rage.

Upon hearing Lysander’s address toward Maverick, Howard felt a pang of discomfort washed over him. However, he knew he couldn’t reclaim the lost time. Nonetheless, he approached gently and said, “You must be Mr. Maverick, right? Allow me to introduce myself. I am Howard Thorne.”

Chapter 535 | Am With You

Recalling the words once spoken by Lysanne, Maverick was nearly stunned on the spot. “You’re that mistress‘ father?”

“Yes…” Howard responded, a bitter expression crossing his face as he heard the mention of Lysanne. “However, I am Lysander’s biological father. Over the years, my wife and I have owed her a great deal. I truly appreciate your all for taking care of her.”

Maverick hadn’t expected Lysander’s biological father to show up so soon. Thinking about Lysanne’s actions toward his family, he couldn’t help but scoff. “Well, you’ve certainly raised a fine daughter, wrecking other people’s homes! My family might be poor, but we’ve always taught Lysa to be upright, kind–hearted, and responsible. She would never stoop to such despicable acts!”

There was no way for Howard to justify Lysanne’s actions. “It’s my fault for not guiding my daughter properly. I truly apologize.”
