His Beloved Ex-Wife

Chapter 507 Marriage Is Absolutely Worthless Nieve stared at Josiah thoughtfully. "Ms. Thorne's friend?” "Correct "What's your relationship with her friend that brought you here to findpersonally?" In his arms, Aurora was still wide-eyed, filled with curiosity about the world around her. Josiah shifted his. position to hold her more comfortably. He also pulled her tiny dress downward to straighten it out.

"She has nothing to do with me." Josiah gestured toward Lysander with his chin. “However, she has helped Lysander a lot." Nieva shook her head, chuckling lightly. "Oh, returning a favor." "Yes, you could say that." Nieva becserious. "How much is needed?" In a few brief words, Josiah explained the situation about Daphne's family. "The company's bank loan has been fully repaid, but as you are well aware, it takes scapital to make a comeback." Nieva scanned Josiah from head to toe with a peculiar gaze and said, "That's odd. You could have easily handled this situation yourself. It would have been much more convenient than seeking my help. Is there something else going on here that I should know about?" Josiah cradled Aurora in his arms, leaning gently against the backrest as he spoke. "I've transferred smoney, but I suspect she has her reservations. She probably won't use it." After hearing everything, Nieva did not immediately express her stance. Instead, she fell into silence for a moment.

As Josiah was helping Daphne, Lysander chimed in, "My friend's family business has always been stable. However, an elder in the family got ill and had to stay abroad temporarily, leading to this urgent situation. I understand that investing certainly carries risks, and I can't guarantee that it will definitely be profitable and won't incur losses. But what I can promise is that my friend will certainly do their best." "Ms. Thorne, you're quite interesting" Nieva chuckled lightly. "This is the first tI've heard such an honest explanation." Josiah smiled helplessly. "She used to study medicine. She's used to speaking plainly and doesn't understand the intricacies of the business world. Everything she says is sincere." "I like honest people,” Nieva said, smacking her lips. “I am tired of all the smooth-talking and slick words. it is refreshing to hear something straightforward. But Ms. Thorne, I must remind you, the more the money, the more of a battlefield it becomes. To stand firm in such a place, you can't have too high a moral standard, or it will drive you crazy just watching." Josiah frowned. "Don't scare her. She's just starting out Let her adapt gradually." "Mr. Guerra, I was having a conversation with Ms. Thome. Why are you interrupting?" Nieva was joking. Naturally, Josiah didn't take offense. He made a gesture and said, "Apologies, ladies.

1/3 Chapter 507 Marriage is Absolutely Worthless Judging from Nieva's demeanor, she didn't seem to be particularly averse.

Lysander quickly added, “I am just getting started in this field and don't understand many things. I am sorry if I made a fool of myself." "Not at all. I actually appreciate direct communication. Honestly, with Mr. Guerra's backing. I have no concerns. Given the relationship between our families, even if your friend loses money, Mr. Guerra would cover it. I am just curious-since your friend is important to you and Mr. Guerra values you, why wouldn't she use his money?" Josiah sighed, looking a bit resigned. "it is a long story." Nieva seemed even more curions. “Is she at odds with you?" Josiah recalled Daphne's hostile attitude when he called her and answered honestly, “If she knew the investment was from me, she would probably be happier losing it all" Nieva immediately burst out laughing without any regard. "No way, how on earth did you manage to offend her? She would rather refuse the money than let go of her grudge." If Josiah weren't holding the baby, he would probably be rubbing my forehead by now. Josiah said helplessly. "I made smistakes in the past that I haven't been forgiven for. I am trying to improve my standing with her now." Nieva laughed again, enjoying his discomfort, but then grew serious. "I should give you this favor, but since most of the Lionhart family's finances are under my husband's control now, and given my current situation... You understand." Her expression turned somber, a fleeting sadness that was real but quickly masked.

Josiah turned serious, understanding her concerns. "I understand. You might not have full authority over investments right now. I won't ask for much. Just do your best." "The amount is not an issue," Nieva agreed quickly, though with sirritation. "It is having to deal with him that's annoying." It seemed Nieva's marriage was complicated, something Josiah was aware of. He remained silent, and Lysander didn't feel it was appropriate to comment.

Josiah asked, "Will you and ECortez continue like this?" Nieva rolled her eyes. "He got what he wanted, and I got what I wanted. We've both achieved our goals. Marriage is absolutely worthless." Josiah frowned slightly. "It depends on the person." "Are you saying I can't judge people well?" "No, you have good judgment. Eis capable and ambitious. He will elevate the Lionhart family further." "Yes, but such a man is not suited to be a husband." Sadness flashed across Nieva's eyes. "At least, not my husband. To other women, he's a perfect man." Josiah said, "But you are still a Lionhart. No matter how capable Eis, he can't replace the family nThe company remains under your family." 2/3 00:20 Sat, 8 Jun G Chapter 507 Marriage is Absolutely Worthless "Yes," Nieva smiled faintly. "I was lucky to be born into the right family." 95% D Josiah signaled to Lysander with his eyes. "With Ms. Lionhart's support, Dapline's investment is secured."

der understood and immediately stood up, raising her glass of milk "Ms. Lionhart, it is a great help in a times of need. I thank you on behalf of my friend. If this goes through, she will cto thank you personally." Nieva waved her hand, a sly smile on her face. "Hold on, I am willing to help, but I haven't mentioned my condition yet." Lysander tensed up, but Josiah remained calm. "Go ahead."

Nieva reached over to take Aurora, who was getting restless in Josiah's arms. She asked, "Do you find taking care of children tiring?" Josiah admitted, "I haven't taken care of a baby before." Lysander clarified. "Tve looked after mothers and newborns but not for long. Mostly, nurses handle it."

"Ms. Thorne you're a gynecologist?" Nieva sounded more confident Confident than they did. "That's even better. Do you have any plans recently? Could you take care of Aurora for a few days?" S X
