Personally, Lysander didn’t really have much energy to focus on Josiah and Lysanne’s aftermath. So, she didn’t react much when she suddenly heard these two being brought up in the conversation.

“It doesn’t matter whether the outcome is good or bad. He made his choice. He can do whatever he wants as long as he believes it’s justified.”

“Justified?” Daphne chuckled. “I don’t think Josiah necessarily sees it that way. A lot has happened. recently. Suffice it to say, he has practically become a laughingstock in our social circle. Let me give you

the deets.”

Lysander stretched out her palm to stop Daphne from continuing. “Stop. My work takes priority. I still have plenty of patients queuing out there.” Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Daphne quickly realized she was taking up the patients’ time after that reminder. Although she felt somewhat guilty and sheepish, the gossipmonger within her just couldn’t resist sharing the juicy details with her friend. Thus, she rose to her feet and said with an eager glint in her eye, “I’ll wait for you

Unfortunately, there were many patients that day. As a result, Lysander only managed to make it back to her office around 7 p.m.

Daphne immediately jerked to her feet and exclaimed, “You’re finally back!”

Lysander clutched her waist and replied with a slightly pained expression, I’m sorry I made for so long.”

“Why are you being so courteous after all we’ve been through?” Nevertheless, Daphne took a few steps to support her. When she noticed Lysander’s scrunched eyebrows, she inquired with concern, “What’s wrong with your waist?”

“It’s that time of the month,” Lysander muttered hesitantly.

“I remember you didn’t suffer cramps, right? Why are you suffering- Daphne trailed off as if she had realized something. “Is this your first period after the abortion?”

“Yeah.”

Lysander’s expression seemed desolate every single time the topic of her abortion came up.

Daphne also knew that although abortion was the most rational choice at the time, that child’s loss and her decision had become a permanent scar in Lysander’s heart.

“Anyway, didn’t you say something about filling me in?”

Daphne touched her forehead as she inquired worriedly, “Are you truly alright? The gossip isn’t going to run away. We could always do something else.”

“Alright, then.”

Daphne began to update her on the latest news. Once the woman started going, it seemed as though the laziest trickle of words soon became a torrent of them.

“Guerra Group lost a few million again just a few days ago.”

Lysander asked, “Is it because of Lysanne’s cousin?”

Daphne looked disdainful as she snorted. “That’s a separate issue. Losing a big deal is one thing. The thing I’m talking about? It’s a completely different issue altogether. Ever since Lysanne’s cousin became

Josiah’s secretary, he’s been acting high and mighty. He’s been going around boasting that his

cousin-in-law is a wealthy tycoon. He was driving Josiah’s luxury car when he caused a fatal accident while drunk driving. The victim was a traffic police officer.”

Lysander, who had been feeling down, suddenly became alert.

“A traffic police?”

“Yeah.” Daphne crossed her arms and said mockingly, “And he was driving Josiah’s car.”

“So…. he caused a fatal accident while drunk driving, and the victim is a traffic policeman. Oh, wow. It is a big deal.”

“Exactly.” Daphne continued, “It seemed like he was going to be sentenced. However, you know how it is. Lysanne started crying and begging, saying that he was her only cousin and she couldn’t bear to see him go to jail.

“So, Josiah just scrubbed his record clean with money?”

“It’s not that simple. Josiah is wealthy, but the other party is an officer of the law. So, it’s not an easy matter to settle.”

“What happened, then?”

“Well, all I got from it is that Lysanne is truly a ruthless woman. She asked Josiah to take the blame for her cousin.”

Lysander was utterly shocked at this point.

Josiah taking the blame? Is Lysanne being serious right now?

When Daphne caught sight of the flabbergasted look on her face, she chuckled and said, “Don’t be so surprised. You’re not hallucinating. I’m being 100% honest. Lysanne argued that since Josiah owns the car, as the owner, he cannot evade responsibility. Moreover, the Guerra family holds significant power and influence. Josiah may not have to serve time in jail if he shoulders the blame. Instead, he’s likely only required to pay a fine.”

“Has he agreed to this?”
