Chapter 248 I Did Not Understand You Before
Lysander slightly raised her head. “What else do you know?”
“You saw the messages that Harry sent to Lora, right? Do they seem familiar to you? Swap donuts for roasted potatoes, buddies’ gatherings for playing basketball, traditional acupuncture for moving house, and the unchanging routine of becoming a personal driver. You’re so smart. You probably don’t need me to say much more.”
Lysander felt a slight chill in her heart.
She had long noticed that Zachary was not so simple, and she even had a good relationship with Harry. However, when Josiah put it that way, it still made her break out in a cold sweat.
“But Lora is the only daughter of Seamus Corporation, and I’m just a daughter from an ordinary family. What does he see in me?”
Josiah’s gaze slightly hardened. He solemnly said, “He knew well that I would be present today, yet he still wanted to bring you along. Don’t you understand what he’s trying to do?”
Lysander slightly furrowed her brows.
Josiah continued, “If I’m not mistaken, he orchestrated that incident to gauge my reaction and assess the depth of my affection for you, as well as to determine the lengths I would go for you.”
“He… sent that drunkard on purpose to take advantage of me? Did that drunkard pretend to be drunk?”
“It didn’t seem like it, and it’s also possible that it wasn’t deliberately orchestrated by Zachary. He might, have seen the situation next door when he came and took the opportunity to lead the drunkard over to us. In any case, the appearance of the drunkard was too coincidental and something doesn’t feel right. I have already asked Ms. Collins to investigate, and there will be results soon.”
It turned out he had called Carol when he was outside just now.
Lysander said, “You hit him quite hard. Although his life is not in danger, he has a wound on his head. The water in the lake is not very clean, so it’s likely to get infected. A head infection can still be quite dangerous, so he needs to get to the hospital for disinfection and treatment as soon as possible.”
Josiah burst into laughter. “Lysander, you’re still the same as before.”
“What?”
“You have a heart to save the dying and heal the injured. No matter what happens, the patient is the most important.”
Lysander argued, “I’m not that great. It’s just an occupational habit, a conditioned reflex.”
“That’s a good thing.” Josiah said softly. “I didn’t understand you before.”
Lysander took a deep breath. “Have you finished telling me everything you wanted to today? If you’re

Josiah looked at her, lightly tapping his fingers on the seat, then unlocked the door.
Lysander pushed open the door and was about to leave when he grabbed her wrist.
“Lysander, what are you planning to do about Zachary? If you need me to step in, I can:
Lysander withdrew her hand. “My parents are already upset because of Michelle’s university entrance. exam and puppy love. I don’t want to make them sad anymore. I don’t want this matter to end up in at mess, so please don’t interfere. I will choose a relatively gentle way to end this relationship without impacting the elders.”
“All right… Then you take care of yourself.”
The cold wind outside sent a chill down Lysander’s spine.
She wrapped her coat tightly around herself. “Mr. Guerra, please pay less attention to me. If Zachary thinks I’m no longer of use, he won’t waste his time on me.”
As she turned to hail a taxi by the roadside, she ran into Carol getting out of a car and hurrying over in this direction.
Carol saw her, paused slightly, and quickly regained her composure.
She glanced at the Rolls-Royce Cullinan not far away and Josiah, who had already got out of the car and was standing by, watching Lysander leave.
“Do you need me to call a taxi for you?”
Lysander shook her head. “It’s okay. I can manage.”
Carol gave a slight nod. “It’s getting late. Be careful.”
“I will. Thank you.”
Carol nodded, then walked inside.
Lysander suddenly felt bad for her.
Carol used to address her as Mrs. Guerra, but now she didn’t even dare to address her at all.
Lysander would be unhappy if she addressed her as Mrs. Guerra.
At the same time, Josiah would be unhappy if she addressed her as Ms. Thorne.
Upon getting in a taxi, Lysander gave the driver the address of the residential area.
On the road, she received a call from Priscilla. “Lysander, are you busy now?”
“No, what’s wrong?”
“I think… I’m bleeding…”
