Chapter 536 Settling All Matters From The Past

Carol was somewhat taken aback. “Right now? But we haven’t even notified Riveron Corporation yet.”

After hanging up the phone, Josiah was met with a suspicious glance from Maverick. “What are you scheming now?” he asked.

“There are no tricks involved. It’s simply a matter of dealing with all past issues.”

Maverick hummed in response, then turned back with a frown to look at Lysander. “Why aren’t you dressed yet? Hurry up and put my coat on,” he said.

Lysander had no choice but to drape her father’s overcoat on herself first.

Only then did Maverick’s expression soften a bit. “Do you still feel cold?”

Lysander shook her head. “I’m not cold anymore. Your coat is really warm.”

Immediately, Josiah said, “Sirs, please follow me.”
