Chapter 63 His Child Has Died
Josiah took a deep breath. “Fine.”
With that, he walked toward the restaurant.
“Wait.” Lysander stopped him. “Don’t be so reluctant.”
“I have done as you requested.”
“But you did it reluctantly and did not listen to me wholeheartedly.”
“What else do you want me to do? Smile?” Josiah gestured around. “Do you see? Everyone here is holding their phones and taking pictures of us. If everything goes as expected, you will see me in the news later. The incident of drunk driving last time has not been completely resolved and now I am being photographed coming to this internet-famous restaurant. Maybe the police will come directly to my door later. You are pregnant. You will probably be sent home by the police car to rest and I will probably be invited to the police station for a chat.”
Lysanne was slightly flustered. “I-”
“You are aware of Guerra Group’s situation recently. Because of your cousin, I lost money and lost a major client. The stock price has been falling. If this matter gets in the news again, what will happen to Guerra Group? Do you understand?”
“Josiah.” Lysanne came over to hold his hand
He withdrew his hand from her palm. “Don’t we have to eat? Let’s go. Thank you, Miss Thorne, for fighting for the private room and free meal. I will consider myself lucky to have your favor today.”
Lysanne was speechless.
“Let’s go.”
She continued to remain silent.
“Let’s go!”
Lysander was startled and her eyes turned red. “Josiah, you scared me!”
Josiah sneered as his lips curled up. “Lysanne, this is who I am. It’s because you said you like gentleness, that’s why I forced myself to become what I am now!
“But isn’t loving someone about accepting and sacrificing for them?”
“What about you? Do you love me?”
Lysanne suddenly turned cold. “Are you having second thoughts?”
Josiah did not deny it. “I just feel that being together with you feels different from what I imagined.

“You are having second thoughts!”
He took a deep breath and simply asked, “Do you still want to cat? If you do, come in. If not, we’ll leave and go home then.”
“Josiah, you need to understand this. You pursued me for over twenty years. I can live without you
Suddenly, the sound of a police siren could be heard in the distance.
A police car pulled over to the side of the road and soon the police officers approached.
“We received a report from the public that there was a fight at the restaurant entrance and someone was injured in a car accident. Was it you two?”
The crowd around them looked toward Josiah and Lysander.
The police officer walked up to Josiah and was surprised. “Mr. Guerra? Why is it you again..

Josiah’s face turned pale. He wiped his face with his hand and asked in a low voice, “Do we need to go the police station?”
“According to the procedure, you will need to come with us.”
He nodded. “I will go with you. She is pregnant, so please send someone to take her home to rest.”
The police nodded. “Don’t worry. We will take care of it.”

At this moment, Lysanne was finally scared. She grabbed the police officer’s sleeve and pleaded. “Sir, we, were just having a quarrel as husband and wife. There’s no need to make such a big deal out of it, right?”
“But someone got hurt, so we must follow the rules.”
Josiah nodded. “I will go with you.”
“But-
Josiah shook off Lysanne’s hand and left with the police in the police car.
On the way, the police asked, “Was that woman your wife?”
Josiah remained silent.
The police assumed he was still arguing with his wife and chuckled. “She’s a woman and carrying your child. As men, we should be more considerate, even if it’s for the sake of your child…”
“My child?” Josiah sneered.
“Yeah. If your wife is pregnant, it must be your child. Whose else could it be?”
Josiah turned his head to look out the window.
