His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 543 ThreatenFrom the corner of his eye, he noticed two individuals clad in black not too far off. They had becaware of the commotion over here. One of them began to make a call on his phone.

"Hahaha! They saw it, didn't they? Is he calling Josiah? Why are you being so stubborn? The outcwill be the same, yet you insist on enduring unnecessary hardship-" Thud! A muffled thud of flesh and bone exploded beside Lysander's car.

Just moments ago, Zachary, who had been clinging onto her tightly, was suddenly sent flying by a surge of force. The hand that had been pressing against her throat finally loosened.

Lysander bent over, seized by a violent coughing fit. The urge to vomit was overwhelming, and she couldn't suppress it any longer. She crouched on the ground, dry heaving, her eyes filled with unshed tears.

Someone was patting her back to help her catch her breath, his voice hoarse with worry. "Are you all right?" Lysander took several quick breaths. "Yes." Zachary hadn't planned on actually choking her to death. He had held back a bit. However, she was already feeling queasy, and then, being somewhat deprived of oxygen, all her discomfort exploded all at once. She crouched on the ground for quite stime, unable to vomit anything, but she was so uncomfortable that she was drenched in cold sweat.

Josiah dared not touch her. "Hang in there. I'll get someone to call the doctor." Lysander waved her hand dismissively. "No. If my parents see this, they'll just worry more. They're already concerned enough about Michelle.” "Are you okay, then?" "Zachary didn't go all out on me. It's just my old ailment acting up again, makingwant to vomit. A little rest should helprecover." "In that case, I'll accompany you." After being exposed to the cold wind outside for a while, Lysander began to feel much better.

She slowly rose to her feet, her gaze falling on Zachary as he struggled to get up.

In the throes of his fury, Josiah had no control over his strength. All she saw was Zachary lying motionless on the ground, a pool of blood and several teeth scattered near his head.

Two individuals clad in black attire noticed the commotion from not too far away. Swiftly, they rushed over and took firm control of Zachary.

These two were bodyguards assigned by Josiah himself. Upon realizing they had almost caused an 1/4 Chapter 543 ThreatenJosiah, on the other hand, didn't say anything to them.

Their original assignment had been merely to keep an eye on Zachary. Their responsibility was fulfilled when they alerted others upon noticing his unusual behavior. However, his risky attempt to kidnap Lysander was completely unexpected.

Lysander was worried that Josiah might fire them, so she quickly added, "They've been nearby all along. They never left." "I know." Josiah's face was impassive, but his eyes were filled with an unmistakable rage. The way he looked at Zachary was as if he was staring at a dead man.

The bodyguards checked over Zachary and reported, "He seems to have fainted, but he's still breathing. Mr. Guerra, how should we proceed?" Josiah, supporting Lysander, commanded in a cold voice, "There's no need to keep this person around." The men in black, who were holding Zachary, gave a slight nod before attempting to drag him out directly. Astonished, Lysander quickly stepped forward, exclaiming, "Wait a moment!" Josiah's voice dropped as he retorted, "Are you really going to go soft at this point? Or do you think his threats aren't enough? I, for one, have had enough." "I have no intention of pleading for him." Lysander's expression was filled with nothing but disgust. She cautioned, "But we're in a hospital, surrounded by surveillance cameras. You could hand him over to the security guards or call the police." Josiah dismissed it lightly and said, “I can handle this small matter myself. There's no need to waste police resources." "Take him away," he ordered the two clad in black who had halted.

Just at that moment, Zachary coughed heavily, stirring awake slowly.

The moment he saw Josiah, he completely lost it. "Mr. Guerra, givea chance," he pleaded. "Givea chance to prove my worth! I promise to make more money for Guerra Group in the future. Just giveanother opportunity..." From his elevated position, Josiah looked down at him, his brows furrowed as he urged his bodyguards, "Think there aren't enough people here already? Hurry up!" The bodyguards instantly covered Zachary's mouth, dragging him toward the nearby car.

A long trail of blood stained the ground.

Then, he was swiftly ushered into the back seat of a black car.

One bodyguard drove off, leaving a trail of dust behind him, while the other stayed. He quickly reassured, "Don't worry, Mr. Guerra. I'll immediately take care of any traces left here." Josiah gave a nonchalant hum. His attention remained fixated on Lysander. "Still feeling unwell?" he asked. Lysander felt a heavy unease in her heart, an inexplicable discomfort. She asked, “Where do you plan on 2/4 1210 1 Chapter 543 Threatentaking him?" Josiah answered in a low voice, "Take care of yourself first." Lysander's voice was still very weak. "His obsession is deep, and he won't stop until he achieves his goal. I'm afraid that if he ever gets a chance in the future, he might harm my family again." Josiah gave her a reassuring gesture. "He won't get a chance." With a mix of doubt and curiosity, Lysander uttered, "You have to at least letknow what you plan to do with him, right? Mdm. Camila is still in the ward. She knows I left with Zachary, If I return alone, I need to have an explanation." Out of the blue, Josiah asked, "So, you just followed him downstairs without any caution? Do you realize how dangerous that was?" Lysander recalled the recent scene, and she couldn't help but express her shock. “This is a hospital. He wouldn't dare to actually harm me. He merely wants to force you into meeting him. His target has always been you, not me." "But you could definitely pose a threat to me." Lysander fell silent.

"If he were truly serious, I would have given him what he wanted." Lysander's eyes flickered, and she avoided his intense gaze. “I'm much better now. I need to return." The small garden wasn't spacious, so they both chose to converse away from the spot where the incident had just occurred.

A family member of a patient, who happened to be passing by on their way to the cafeteria, cast a puzzled glance in this direction.

A hushed murmur found its way into Lysander's ears.

"It must have been a marital spat, but why is there blood on the ground? How could this man beso audacious, resorting to domestic abuse in broad daylight? Should we intervene and call the police?" "That guy is obviously no ordinary man. We can't afford to mess with him. Let's get out of here quickly..." Lysander paused for a moment, and she immediately changed her course and walked back to the ward. Josiah quickened his pace to catch up with her. "Don't walk so fast. You might feel unwell again." "You don't need to support me. I can manage on my own." "All right, I won't touch you. Take your time," he said.

Lysander arrived at the entrance of the inpatient department and halted, saying, "I need to return to the ward. to return You shouldn't cin. If my father sees you, he'll get angry again. He's getting on in years. I don't want him to get too upset. It's not good for his health." Moreover, Camila was undoubtedly still in the ward, having not left yet.

3/4 12:16 Thu, 13 Jun Chapter 543 ThreatenAfter returning, she had to figure out a way to explain Zachary's absence.

Lysander once again felt a wave of dizziness.

Secing the situation, Josiah said in a deep voice, "I'll listen to whatever whatever Lean't at your father has to say Dearft Be ease with how things are now. Also, someone needs to explain Zachary's whereabouts." After speaking, he didn't wait for Lysander's response. Instead, he headed straight into the hospital and pressed the elevator button.
