Chapter 467 They Need To Mind Themselves

They were seated, one on the couch, the other on a chair to the side. The chair was originally a bit higher than the comfortable couch, but due to Josiah’s considerable height advantage over Lysander, they appeared to be on the same level.

The distance between them had inexplicably lessened significantly.

Seeing her silence, Josiah gave a smirk. “Would it be too much trouble to pour me a cup of warm water, Dr. Thorne?”

Lysander paused for a moment, then stood up. However, both the coffee table and the dining table were completely empty.

“Where’s your cup?”

“There should be some disposable ones in the cupboard.”

Lysander furrowed her brows. “You didn’t even buy a cup?”

Josiah scoffed, “I don’t have Mr. Housewife at home to prepare and provide everything for me.”

He is being sarcastic again.

Lysander said, “Considering you’ve helped Old Mrs. Everhart, I’ll gift you a cup as a token of appreciation.”

Josiah raised an eyebrow. “Seems like you’re not surprised at all.”

“It’s not hard to guess.” Lysander said, “Madam Susan hasn’t been involved in the affairs of the Guerra family for many years. She probably doesn’t even know where the family’s private jet is parked, There’s no way she could have arranged everything in such a short time.”

“When did you figure it out?”

“When I came over to have a meal at your place.” Lysander paused for a moment, then added, “At Madam Susan’s house.”

Josiah lowered his gaze. “I would like to drink some water.”

Lysander stood up and said, “I’ve boiled some over at my place. Could you wait a moment?”

“Alright.”

Lysander quickly made a trip to her own home, only to find the door locked.

Upon glancing at her phone, she noticed a message from Adrian. He had written to inform her that something urgent had come up and he had to leave early. Tiffany also received a call from her father asking her to come home. So, Adrian had conveniently dropped Tiffany off on his way.

Upon entering, the dining table was indeed still adorned with the same spread of dishes from earlier.

However, they had essentially all gone cold.

Lysander felt that it was a shame. She had put so much effort into preparing the dishes, but in the end, not
