Chapter 273 Does Your Mother Know
“Does your mother know about all these?”
“No, she doesn’t.”
Lysander nodded. “That’s good. I don’t want my mom to lose a good friend in her middle age.
Zachary said, “My mother doesn’t know much about my affairs.”
“How do you know about my menstrual cycle?”
“Michelle told me.”
“Did
she tell you this on her own volition?”
“Your sister, whether it’s her looks. personality, or intelligence, is nothing like you. I only had to make a bit of small talk, and she spilled everything. Genes are truly a mystery.”
Lysander was slightly displeased, “Michelle thinks highly of you, always speaking well of you. How could you talk about her like this?”
Zachary shrugged, nonchalantly saying, “It’s not like she can hear me.”
“But I heard it.”
“So what do you want to do, help her beat me up?’
Lysander pointed in the opposite direction. “Don’t come to my house anymore. You’re not welcomed here.”
Zachary laughed heartily. “Don’t worry. I’m about to go to Strico. Mr. Guerra might have a bit of a temper, but he is reliable and efficient. In the next three to five years, I will be based in Strico.”
“About us, how should we explain it to our families? We need to agree on a unified story, so as not to worry my parents and Mdm. Camila.”
Zachary suddenly leaned in with his arms folded. “Lysander, you’re really good. I really feel that it’s such a shame.”
Lysander glared at him. “I’m serious.”
“Why don’t you just tell your family the truth that it was Mr. Guerra who helped you, and I am a shameless villain, using you to threaten Josiah.”
Lysander tilted her head at him. “Zachary, if you continue to act like this, I will call Josiah right now and cancel the previous collaboration with you. It’s okay if Harry doesn’t want to divorce, we can just proceed with a lawsuit. It will just take more time.”
Zachary raised his eyebrows, nodded, and said, “Thas true. You and Daphne have already helped. Priscilla transfer out all the money. Even if they divorce, Harry won’t get anything.”

“I’m glad you know.”
“Alright.” Zachary retracted his gaze, straightened his body, and said seriously, “Here’s the plan. I’m going to Strico. After a while, we’ll say that due to the distance, we naturally broke up.”
“How long do we wait?”
“Why don’t
you decide?”
Lysander thought for a moment, then said, “The end of this month.”
“Isn’t it too quick? I’ll only be in Strico for a short while at the end of the month.”
“I might be going abroad for an assignment at the end of the month,” Lysander said. “It’s settled then. I hope this time you won’t play any tricks, and let Harry and Priscilla divorce smoothly.”
Zachary laughed. “Don’t worry, Josiah has shown enough sincerity for you. Chasing after a girl is quite tiring, and I won’t bother you anymore.”
Zachary did as he promised.
Lysander had no idea what he said to Harry again, but Harry’s progress with Lora skyrocketed after
that.
He had only sent a message to reconcile with Lora the previous Thursday, and by this Tuesday, there were already some rumors circulating.
Having heard them, Daphne said: “I heard it from my dad. Seamus Corporation is preparing for a wedding.”
Lysander was somewhat surprised when she heard it. So soon?”
“Yeah, it happened so fast that even my dad was surprised. He was even wondering where Seamus Corporation had managed to find a promising son-in-law because he wanted to find one for me too.”
Lysander couldn’t help but ask, “Your dad is still forcing you to go on blind dates?”
“Of course.” Daphne stirred the ice cubes in her coffee nonchalantly, making a clattering sound. “Why is the older generation so stubborn? Not getting married won’t kill you, so why must one get married?”
Lysander said, “Each generation has its own way of thinking. Society is progressing so quickly that the older generation’s mindset has not yet adapted.”
“But I’m so annoyed, Lysander. I want to escape it all for a while.”
“Sure, I have already submitted my application for the overseas transfer, would you like to come with me and have some fun abroad?”
Daphne was immediately intrigued. “Sure! That would be great. When are you leaving?”
“It’s not confirmed yet. Probably at the end of this month, or the beginning of next month. It will be just in time to see Priscilla break free from her troubles and start a new life.”

No sooner had she finished than she noticed someone had unknowingly stood beside them.
A lady was dressed in a suit, shirt, and A-line skirt. With black high heels, she looked very much the professional.
Lysander asked, “Daphne, is she your friend?”
Daphne shook her head, directly asking, “Is there something you need?”
The woman’s red lips curved slightly. “Dr. Thorne, I presume?”
