Howard opened his mouth but didn’t utter a single word after a moment of hesitation.

Lysander sighed helplessly. “Didn’t you say this matter had nothing to do with Josiah?”

Lysander asked, “By the way, has Zachary contacted you?”

“No, but I just gave him a call. After all, he helped me get this part–time job through his connections. It wouldn’t be right if I suddenly didn’t show up. I had to let him know and apologize, don’t you think?”
