Chapter 615 I Do Not Want Her To Be Sad

A flicker of pain flashed across Lysander’s forehead.

It was precisely because she understood so well that she wavered over time. She wanted to grasp the last fleeting hope like an ordinary person who hadn’t studied medicine.

Josiah didn’t utter another word. He just quietly stayed by her side.

At times like these, no one but herself could pull her out of her emotional turmoil.

The serene ambiance in the room was only broken when Josiah received a phone call. He glanced at the caller ID and answered the call in front of Lysander. “Mr. Maverick.”

Lysander quickly looked over.

Josiah was holding his phone with a serious expression. After a brief moment, he said, “All right, please wait a moment. I’ll be right there.”

Judging from Josiah’s defensive attitude, it could not have been Howard.

Lysander became anxious first. “What does my father want with you?”

“I’m not sure either.” Josiah shook his head, his voice gentle and soothing. “He doesn’t know that I’m with you right now. He says he wants to talk privately with me. Don’t worry, if anything comes up, I’ll definitely let you know.”

Recalling the secret that Maverick had painstakingly concealed, Lysander didn’t have the heart to expose it. She halted in her tracks and said, “All right.”

Josiah swiftly walked out, but he gently closed the door behind her as if he didn’t want to make even the slightest sound.
