Chapter 572 Sleeping On The Couch

Lysander left the house and took a cab straight to the library.

The library was quite crowded on the weekend. She found a quiet spot and had just settled down to read some materials when her phone rang.

It was an unknown number.

The library was eerily quiet, with only the sound of flipping pages filling the room. She abruptly ended call.

Around noon, she went to a café on the ground floor of the library. Josiah called.

After a moment’s hesitation, she picked up. “Hello?”

“Where are you?” Josiah’s voice sounded a bit anxious. “Who are you with?”

Lysander responded coolly, “I am at the library. What’s up?

“What are you doing at the library?”

“Reading materials. I can’t concentrate at home.”

Josiah had been causing various distractions all day yesterday. She had an important management meeting at Thorne Constructions and Energies on Monday. While she wasn’t nervous, she wanted to be well–prepared to avoid making any stupid mistakes that could undermine her credibility.

“Are you alone?”

“Yes.” Lysander asked, “Did you get your phone back?”

Josiah paused. “Yeah, Ms. Collins brought someone to unlock the door.”

“Oh, that’s good then.”

Josiah asked, “Are you free at noon?”

“No, I still have a lot to read.”

“You still need to eat lunch, right?”

“There’s a restaurant downstairs.”

“Outside food isn’t nutritious,” Josiah said. “Send me your location, and I’ll bring you something.”

“No need…”
