Chapter 4 Closest of Friends

Lysander recalled the examination report in her wallet, her knuckles slightly pale as she clenched her hands. “There’s no gift?” Josiah chuckled lightly. “Forget it then. I understand that you’re very busy, Dr. Thorne. It’s already a great birthday gift for me that you could spare some time to have a meal with me.” “Josiah, I’ve taken the next week off. Let’s go somewhere for a few days.” Josiah was somewhat surprised. “Aren’t you busy with your report recently? Do you have time?” “I can make it work.” After a moment of thought, Josiah nodded. “Alright, we didn’t have a honeymoon when we got married, so this is a good opportunity to make up for it.”
