Under normal circumstances, even if he didn’t stop Josiah from interrupting, he should have at least shot him a glare.

“I’m fine.” Maverick waved his hand absentmindedly, offering a vague explanation. “I’m just worried you. might overwork yourself. You’ve never worked in a corporate environment before, and you’re so headstrong. What if you exhaust yourself?”

With a mix of belief and doubt, Lysander nodded, choosing not to press further on the matter.

Michelle saw her still looking uneasy and tried to console her. “Lysander, don’t worry. If I graduate and you’re still not settled, I’ll come to help out!”

Only then did Lysander smile. “You should focus on healing your injuries first.”

The atmosphere seemed to have lightened as Howard watched the two siblings chat merrily. It was then that he interjected, “Indeed, health is of utmost importance. You may be young now, but if you don’t take good care of yourselves, it will be hard to make up for it when you reach our age.”

With teary eyes, Howard echoed his wife, “Our two families have been through so much to become one, we must spend more time together in the future.”

Lysander immediately turned toward her foster parents and sister. Seeing that they had no objections, a wave of warmth surged in her heart. Instead of being destroyed by the truth of the past, her family had grown closer.

Maverick finally agreed to Howard’s suggestion. “Mmm, indeed, we should get out
