Lysander steeled herself and said, “I’ll take him next door and explain things properly.”

Josiah stopped her. “Let me go instead. You take care of Aurora.”

With the both of them by Aurora’s side and after a peaceful sleep the night before, there was no immediate sign of her impending wailing. Aurora was still opening its mouth in a blissful, silly grin.

Then, she turned to Josiah and articulated clearly, “Daddy.”

Lysander felt a chill run through her scalp. If my father hears this… Josiah is in danger.

Josiah, on the other hand, was quite all right. He gently teased Aurora by poking her cheek with a light laugh.

Maverick’s hand, poised to knock on the door, froze mid–air. In an instant, his pupils constricted sharply. He was so shocked that he was rendered speechless..

The surrounding staff remained as quiet as a mouse, not even daring to breathe.

Josiah ordered, “Everyone, return to work.”
