Chapter 20 The Best Ending
Josiah clenched his fists tightly on both sides, his chest
somewhat unfamiliar gaze. “Lysander, you’re truly, Violently. He looked at Lysander with a

Josiah furrowed his brows. Three of us?”
“I don’t have to be bound to the Guerra family forever. After the divorce, I can still lead my own life. You don’t have to be burdened with children. In the future, she will give birth to your children. You don’t have to constantly argue with Lysanne because of this child. As for Miss Thorne,” Lysander smiled and continued, “she probably won’t have to refer to the inheritance law daily, let alone struggle to secure more family property for her child.”
Josiah did not retort.
He knew her character. Having grown up with her since childhood, he knew best how she would react.
“Most importantly,” Lysander said. “I want my child to be born into a loving family, at least with a father who loves their mother. In my opinion, love holds far more significance than property and money.”
Since the last time he inquired, Josiah had been silent while keeping his head down.
He didn’t even dare to meet Lysander’s gaze.
Ultimately, Lysander didn’t want to talk to Josiah anymore. “Let’s conclude it here. Go back and live your life well. I will also strive to live mine well. We are parting amicably, and this is already the best ending.”
Josiah finally lifted his head. Lysander noticed a glimmer of tears in the corner of his eyes.
A true man did not shed tears easily, only when he was on the brink of heartbreak.
Having worked in the obstetrics and gynecology department for many years, Lysander was accustom to the complicated relationship between men and women. While the wife inside the ward was in
agony,
the husband could still sit outside, engrossed in his phone without a care.
She had witnessed numerous similar scenarios.
Initially, she felt outraged. She would speak up for the expectant mothers and advocate for them.
However, what she received in return was the husband saying, “My wife doesn’t say anything. Do you have the authority to intervene?”
After several attempts, she eventually realized one thing-the child was conceived in the mother’s body and born from it. All of this did not necessitate the father’s involvement.
A father did not endure morning sickness-induced dizziness, nor did he undergo excruciating pain during childbirth. It was impossible for him to fully comprehend his wife’s sacrifices.

refused to consent to a cesarean section. It was because he had consulted a fortune teller who advised that the following day would be a more auspicious day to give birth. He insisted that the pregnant woman endure until the next day.
This incident was also a pivotal moment in Lynn’s aversion to marriage.
Lysander remembered that Lynn was particularly stunned at that moment as she stood there in a daze.
“Dr. Thorne, do you believe a man has no attachment to unborn children? Even if he is indifferent to his wife, isn’t he afraid the child will suffocate in her womb?” Lynn asked.
Lysander was not a man, so she couldn’t answer her question.
She only observed that countless men, when faced with their wives’ pleas, would still coldly ask for abortion.
If I had not taken the initiative to inform Josiah of my pregnancy, how would he have chosen? Will he opt to keep this child? If so, between him and Lysanne, there will be a child born to another woman. Can Lysanne tolerate it?
If my child and Lysanne were to fall into the water simultaneously, whom would he rescue first?
As she contemplated this extreme scenario, the answer was already apparent.
