Chapter 3 Too Close to Each Other
Should I be surprised? In all honesty, it wasn’t really unexpected. Even though she and Josiah didn’t date each other before getting married, they had been together for almost three years, so she felt like she knew him quite well. Josiah was a kind person, not like the arrogant CEOs portrayed in novels and TV dramas who could intimidate one with just a single word. On the contrary, he was elegant in his demeanor, considerate in his speech, and meticulous in his actions. He was a gentle and mature man. A woman who could make him lose his composure must be someone extraordinary. She was almost prepared for an emotional reunion filled with memories of the past, but reality turned out to be quite different from her expectations. When she returned to the old house, there was indeed a pregnant woman present. However, the pregnant woman was seated with her mother-in-law, Susan McKay, while Josiah was seated alone on a single couch next to them.
pregnant woman beside her. “And she is…” Susan smiled and said, “Let me introduce you. This is Lysanne, the daughter of our neighbor, Mr. Thorne, next door. She and her husband have been living abroad and just returned recently. Lysanne, this is Josiah’s wife, as I mentioned to you earlier.” The pregnant woman smiled and slowly stood up, holding her belly. “Nice to meet you, my name is Lysanne.” Lysander was taken aback. “What did you say your name is?” “What a coincidence. I’m Lysanne. Our names sound rather similar, don’t they?” Susan nodded in agreement. “Yes, what a coincidence indeed. I was pretty surprised when Josiah got married. Perhaps Josiah is destined to have a connection with people whose names start with Lysan. One was his best friend since childhood, and the other was his wife.” Lysanne said, “Yes, how wonderful. You may not know this yet, Madam Susan, but Dr. Thorne was the one who performed surgery on me.” Susan was even more surprised now. “Really?” “Yes.” Lysanne reached out her hand to Lysander, seeking a handshake. “I haven’t thanked you for saving me and my child yet. If it wasn’t for you, we wouldn’t
elementary school to high school, and they didn’t part ways until college. Josiah studied management at the top local university, while Lysanne went abroad to study law. In Susan’s words, “Lysanne and Josiah are so close they could finish each other’s sentences.” Lysander’s mother-in-law, Susan, was a cultured individual, having written and published her own books, and she spoke eloquently. Her words subtly suggested that Josiah and Lysanne shared a platonic bond, not a romantic one. Concerned that Lysander, with her background in science and engineering, might not grasp her meaning, Susan gently patted her hand and remarked, “At one point, they were so
bring myself to feel that way.” Susan had achieved her objective, and Lysanne’s lighthearted response lifted the mood. The dining room was filled with Susan’s hearty laughter. In truth, Lysander was grateful for Susan’s act of kindness. Lysander harbored doubts in her heart but refrained from asking directly. Susan saw through her doubts, thus spoke up and clarified everything. Honestly, Lysander was genuinely content with this marriage. Josiah was kind and considerate, Susan was easy to get along with, and they didn’t pressure her to have children like other affluent families. On the contrary, they were very supportive of her career. It was almost perfect, except for the absence of love. But… Lysanne, Lysander… The similarity of these two names led her to overthink. According to Susan, their neighbor, Mr. Thorne, had accompanied his wife to a sanatorium in the mountains a few years ago. His wife’s health was poor, and the mountain air was beneficial for her recovery, so the neighboring house had
