His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 482 Thinking Of Strategies The summit took place at a conference center, Josiah drove the car into the parking lot, where staff members were already waiting to greet him.

member's demeanor becJosiah handed the staff member the invitation. After a glance at it, the staff even more respectful. "Mr. Guerra, your seat is in Zone A. Please follow me." "Just a moment." Josiah disembarked from the car, striding over to open the back door. He held his hand against the top of the car. "Get out." Like a little lark. Tiffany leaped down and then waved to Lysander. "Lysa, cdown quickly." Lysander moved to the side of the car, and when she exited, she bent her body as low as possible to avoid any physical contact with Josiah.

In the end, she had overestimated her ability to wear high heels.

Already dealing with aching legs, the moment her foot touched the ground, the pain surged back immediately.

Josiah reached out, gently grasping her forearm in support. “Are you all right?” Tiffany was already looking around curiously, completely oblivious to his actions.

The staff members, however, stood respectfully off to the side, watching Josiah and Lysander with at beaming smile.

Lysander managed to free herself from his grasp, wincing as she quickly got out of the car. "Thank you, Mr. Guerra. I'm sorry for causing you trouble." Josiah glanced at the staff members, subtly acknowledging with a soft, "Mhm. Taking care of a lady is only right. Tiffany-" Tiffany replied, "Yes, Jose?" "Let's go, we're heading in." "All right!" The staff member double-checked, "Mr. Guerra, you have two associates with you, correct? I'll have the control center arrange the seatings for your group." "Correct" "All right." The staff member held a walkie-talkie, briefly communicated with the control center, and then led them inside the venue, saying, "Please follow me." While Josiah was engaged in a conversation with the staff, Lysander took the opportunity to survey the Venue.

The entrance was not far off, already teeming with a sea of people. Quite a few security guards and staff members were there, dirécting the crowd in an orderly fashion.

When Josiah noticed Lysander wasn't moving, he turned around and asked, "Why aren't you moving?" Lysander pointed to the side. “Isn't the entrance over there?" The staff member chuckled as they explained, "That area over there is Zone B, where most of the participating companies and industry rookies enter from. Mr. Guerra's seat, however, is in Zone A, the entrance to which is on the other side." Lysander also had an invitation of her own.

The day Carol sent her the package via express delivery, she had carefully examined it right then and there.

Her invitation stated her seat was in Zone B.

"Are you Mr. Guerra's secretary, miss? There's no need to worry. Mr. Guerra has been our esteemed guest annually. The host always arranges for Mr. Guerra to be seated in Zone A. In the past few years, Mr. Guerra was unable to attend, but his seat was always reserved for him," explained the staff member.

Josiah stood beside Lysander, his back toward the staff, shielding her from their view. In a voice only the two of them could hear, he asked, "What's wrong?" Lysander took a step back, creating sdistance between them. "Don't stand so close." Josiah lost his patience. "So, now you've forgotten your promises after what happened?" Lysander, irritated, looked up at him. "Can't you think like a normal person for once?" "Halfway through, you askedto boil water for you. In the context of a football game, this would be called a halftbreak. Right now, all I can think about is the strategy for the second half." Lysander scoffed, "What a load of crap strategy. There's no second half." Josiah crossed his arms, looking at her condescendingly. "Are you really treatinglike a gigolo? Do you think you can just enjoy my services and then leave without a second thought?" "Didn't you tellto treat you like just a tool?" Josiah clicked his tongue. "It's not impossible." "You should hurry inside." "Aren't you going in?" "I'm heading to Zone B." Lysander pulled out an invitation from her bag and showed it to the staff member. "I'm not Mr. Guerra's secretary. I just hitched a ride with him. Zone B is over there, right? I can go there by myself." She turned to Josiah and said, "Thanks for givinga lift today, Mr. Guerra. I'll be on my way now. I don't want to Intrude any further." Then, she quickly left.

Tiffany asked, "Jose, why did Lysa leave alone? Isn't she coming with us?" Josiah chuckled. "Let her be. Sthings can't be forced too much." "What do you mean?" "It's nothing. Let's go." Lysander lined up at the entrance of Zone B to register and then was guided into the venue by the staff.

ThConstructions and Energies was, after all, a well-established enterprise. Although Howard had not been able to put much effort into it over the years, it had been under Josiah's care. Thus, it had a connection to Guerra Group, and consequently, her seat was arranged quite close to the front. Although she was in Zone B. her seat was situated in the middle of the second row, directly facing the main stage.

As she glanced To her surpriser the first row, she initially assumed it would be filled with middle-aged entrepreneurs.

To her surprise, it was entirely occupied by young individuals in their twenties and thirties.

As the summit kicked off, it was the organizers who first took the floor, discussing the purpose and main thof the summit. Following that, the industry's leading figures shared their latest achievements, When there was a discussion specifically about materials, Lysander recorded it on her phone and sent it to Daphne.

Thorne Constructions and Energies primarily dealt with architecture, environment, and energy. In layman's terms, they specialized in industries ve in related to indoor ventilation, air conditioning, and heating systems, among others. Lysander carefully recorded the speeches of several industry leaders in this field, planning to review them meticulously when she returned home. After all, it wasn't easy for her to be there, so it was important for her to soak up as much useful information as possible. That way, the long journey wouldn't have been in vain.

Afterward, it was, as Howard had mentioned, the rising stars within the industry.

They were the young people who were seated in the first row in front of Lysander.

Among them, there was a man called Tyrell Llyod, who had a knack for humor. Although his profession wasin drainage, his speech was so entertaining it felt like he had just performed a stand-up comedy routine. His wit had everyone in fits of laughter, significantly lightening the initially serious atmosphere of the summit. "He's quite impressive," the person next to Lysander remarked. "In a few years, he'll definitely be the standout in the industry." Lysander chimed in a bit, then asked, "Did he start his own business?" "In today's society, who would dare to start a business recklessly, especially in the construction industry? Without any prominent background or financial support, what could they possibly use to establish a new company? He is from Guerra Group." X
