Chapter 422 Changing Girlfriends Every Day

The expression on Lysander’s face subtly shifted.

She had always been aware of Susan’s attitude. During her last visit for dinner at their home, it was Susan who had called Josiah back. Later, Susan had insisted that he should escort her home.

Under the table, Daphne had taken hold of her hand, applying gentle pressure.

Lysander turned around, only to hear Daphne’s firm voice telling her, “Just focus on your meal; don’t worry about anything else.”

Lysander shot her a glance that implied she knew what to do.

“Mr. Guerra, you’ve returned!” Eleanor greeted him. “And who might this be?”

Josiah had returned, but he was accompanied by a woman.

It was yet another unfamiliar face.

She wasn’t a social butterfly from Skywatch, nor was she a female college student from the billiards hall. Rather, she was a refined urban beauty, appearing to be in her mid–twenties, with a rather impressive demeanor.

Daphne mumbled to herself, “Van Cleef & Arpels.”

Lysander didn’t understand. “What?”

“The earrings and necklace this woman is wearing are classic four–leaf clover designs by Van Cleef & Arpels.”

“Are they expensive?”

“Definitely not something the salaried class could afford.”

Lysander nodded, indicating she understood.

Susan wasn’t surprised by the arrival of the new girl. Clearly, she had been mentally prepared. She smiled. politely and said, “Tiffany, you came? It’s been a while, and you’ve become even more beautiful.”

“I’ve been abroad for quite some time and only recently returned home. I made it a point to visit you immediately. Here’s a small token of appreciation I brought for you. I hope you like it, Madam Susan.”

Susan gratefully accepted it with a loving smile. “You’re so thoughtful. Thank you.”

“Actually, I can’t take all the credit for this gift. Josiah accompanied me the whole of today to get it.”

Josiah gave a snort, sounding like he was complaining at first, but upon closer hearing, there was a hint of indulgence in his tone as he said, “So you do realize what I did.”

Tiffany Lanister playfully stuck out her tongue. “Well, it’s been so many years since I’ve seen Madam Susan. I have no idea what she likes now, so naturally, I need you, her dear son, to help out.

Susan opened the package, delightfully pulling out the contents. “A scarf! It’s so beautiful.”

“Josiah mentioned that you’re currently on medication. I’m not a medical student and don’t quite know what might conflict with the medications, so I didn’t dare to bring you any supplements recklessly. This

scarf is of excellent quality. I bought two – one for you and one for my mom. I picked the color and pattern for hers while Josiah selected yours.”

Susan raised an eyebrow, turning her gaze toward Josiah. “Since when did you become so adept at choosing gifts for women? This pattern is indeed quite nice.”

Josiah said. “I remember seeing you have a shawl with a pattern quite similar to this one, so I guessed your might like this style.”

“Oh, that shawl, Susan chuckled, “I really do have a fondness for that shawl.”

The mother and son were engaged in light–hearted chatter, creating a pleasant atmosphere.

Eyen Howard had a few words of praise. “Susan, all these years of you doting on Josiah have not been in vain.”

Susan expressed her annoyance, “He’s just copying others. That shawl was a gift from Lysander. He’s merely plagiarizing her aesthetic sense.” Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

Astonished, Howard glanced at Lysander. “You bought that shawl?”

“Yes, it was during Madam Susan’s birthday last year.”

As Howard joined the conversation, Tiffany’s attention was drawn to him. She sweetly called out, “Mr.

Thorne.

Howard responded, “Hello. I didn’t know you were coming today, so I didn’t bring any gifts. I’ll make it up to you another day.”

Tiffany politely said, “As the younger one, it’s only right that I should be the one bringing gifts to you. It doesn’t make sense for me to ask you for gifts. By the way, has Mrs. Thorne’s health improved?”

“Well, she had another brush with death recently. Thankfully, she received treatment in time, but she still. needs to take it slow and recuperate.”

“Then, I’ll visit her at the hospital another day.”

“No worries, I understand you young people are busy. You’ve just returned from abroad, so spend some more time with your parents. We can talk when you’re free.”

Tiffany squinted her eyes and asked, “By the way, where’s Lyss?”

“She…”

Howard knew that Lysander and Lysanne were at odds, causing him to hesitate when replying.

Josiah answered lightly. “She should be arriving soon, right?”

Upon hearing those words, the smile on Tiffany’s face faded slightly. “Oh, is that so?”

Eleanor hurriedly said, “Ms. Lanister, please take a seat. I’ll get you an extra set of tableware.”

“All right, thank you. Eleanor.”

Susan said, “Everyone, please take a seat. Our home has suddenly become quite lively today with so many visitors.

The apartment, unlike a mansion, was constrained by space limitations. As such, the dining room could only accommodate a rectangular table for six.

The layout of this apartment was actually quite similar to the one next door.

Back when Lysander and Josiah were staying next door, the two of them rarely cooked at home.

Her schedule was utterly erratic when she was busy, so she typically ate in the hospital cafeteria. On the rare occasions when they had time to dine together, they usually ate out before heading home.

Therefore, they hadn’t even purchased a dining table. Instead, Lysander had placed a small bookshelf

there.

Studying medicine required an extensive number of books. She kept the ones she frequently used on that bookshelf. It was incredibly convenient to have them readily available for use.

Susan took her seat at the head of the table while Howard, being an elder, was also accorded respect and thus sat separately at the other end of the table.

Daphne, with Lysander in tow, took a seat to the left of Susan. Josiah, unconcerned with the others, pulled. up a chair and sat down on Susan’s right. Following suit, Tiffany settled down next to him.

In no time, Eleanor had set out a new pair of tableware for Tiffany before she started serving the dishes.

Tiffany gazed at the array of dishes, a joyful look on her face. “It’s been a while since I’ve had such authentic Ecronian cuisine. Eleanor, your culinary skills are as impressive as ever.”

Josiah served her a piece of pork rib. “Feel free to have more if you like it.”

“No, no, I’m on a diet. Just a piece will do. I really can’t eat too much,” Tiffany hastily replied.

Lysander, whose hand had been resting under the table, suddenly felt someone touching her.

Turning to the side, she noticed Daphne signaling her, urging her to check her phone.

Lysander moved her phone under the table, and sure enough, she saw a WhatsApp message from Daphne.

Daphne: Just what is Josiah doing? Has he been influenced by Aiden? Is that why he’s changing girlfriends every day?

Lysander replied with a bewildered expression.

She didn’t know what exactly Josiah was planning.

Daphne: Wait a minute, it seems like this woman knows both your ex–mother–in–law and your father. Could it be

that….

“Let me introduce everyone.” Susan took the initiative to start the conversation. “Tiffany, you should know Mr. Thome, so I won’t introduce him. This is Mr. Thorne’s biological daughter, who was lost when she was a child, and they only recently reunited with each other. She is now a very accomplished obstetrician.”

Tiffany rose politely and greeted, “Hello, Ms. Thorne. I’ve heard that studying medicine is quite challenging. Any girl who can pursue it must be exo vionally outstanding!”

Lysander also rose to her feet to shake Tiffany’s hand. “Thank you, Ms. Lanister. It’s a pleasure to meet

you.

“Lysander, this is Tiffany Lanister. Her father is the chairman of Riveron Corporation. He’s an old friend of mine and your father’s. However, she was raised overseas and only returns to the country during winter and summer breaks.”

Daphne’s eyes widened instantly. “Riveron Corporation? Isn’t that the one that recently collaborated with. the Guerra family…”
