Chapter 41 Leave if You Are Done
Lysanne noticed that Josiah had stopped talking, so she turned to Lysander and said, “Dr. Thorne, please don’t take it to heart. Josiah has always been like this since he was young, always considerate of others, which can lead to misunderstandings. Don’t worry, I will talk to him about it later.”
“Misunderstanding?”
“Yes, misunderstanding him having a crush on others Lysanne’s smile widened. “Back in school, there was a girl who forgot her umbrella after class, and he lent her his own. The girl mistakenly thought that Josiah liked her because of this! It caused quite a commotion, delaying the girl’s romantic pursuits for a few years. Good intentions gone awry, wouldn’t you agree, Dr. Thorne?”
Lysander lowered her head and scoffed.
Lysanne inquired, “Dr. Thorne, am I being clear?”
“Crystal clear.”
“Excellent, I just love talking with intellectuals like you. You catch on quick.”
Lysander scoffed. “Miss Thorne, are you done talking
“More or less, yeah.”
“If you’re done, please leave. Next patient, please.”
Lysanne rose and pushed the thermal food jar towards her. “Remember to drink the mushroom soup. while it’s hot, Dr. Thorne. It’s not as beneficial when it’s cold.”
Lysander sneered. “I appreciate the reminder, but you might want to remind Mr. Guerra on something. else instead. We should get a divorce soon. He needs to set a date and sign the agreement as soon as possible.”
Lysanne feigned innocence and hastily clarified, “Oh, Dr. Thorne, you’ve misunderstood. I sincerely. brought the mushroom soup to help with your health. I wasn’t trying to urge you into getting a divorce.
“You know full well whether or not that is your intention.”
Josiah reached out to pull Lysanne. “Let’s go.”
Lysanne shook off his hand and sat back down.
Lysander raised an eyebrow. “Do you have anything else to say, Miss Thorne?”
Lysanne beamed, tilted her head, and gently caressed her stomach. “Dr. Thorne, may I add you on WhatsApp?”
“I don’t see the need.”

in case of an emergency, I’d like to be able to reach you directly on WhatsApp.”
Lysander slowly lifted her head, took a deep breath, leaned back in her chair, and said, “The hospital is very close to your residence. It’s just a five-minute drive at most.”
Lysanne feigned surprise. “Oh, yes, how forgetful of me. They say pregnancy can make you forgetful sometimes; it seems to be true. You’re right, Josiah and I reside in that apartment now, and it’s quite nearby.”
“Anything else?”
“I still think we should exchange contact information considering you saved this child’s life. This is Josiah’s first son, and when he’s born, we will have a celebration. You played a crucial role, so you’ll definitely be invited. Connecting on WhatsApp will make it easier to reach you then.”
Upon hearing this, Lysander gazed directly at Josiah. First son?”
Josiah’s expression darkened. He couldn’t meet her gaze, and his head dipped.
Without further ado, Lysanne retrieved her QR code and showed it to her. “Here you g
you go, Dr. Thorne.”
Lysander stared at her intently. “I don’t add strangers on WhatsApp.”
The smile on Lysanne’s face faded slightly. In exchange, a somewhat menacing tone sounded from her. “But I saw a notice posted outside the hospital stating that if necessary, patients can request for the doctor’s contact information. It’s the hospital’s policy. You can’t simply disregard it, can you?”
Feeling miffed, Lysander chuckled, impressed by her observant nature. Trying to use the hospital’s policy to force my hand, huh?
