Chapter 284 Nothing Else To Say
Lysander didn’t move.
Josiah also stood his ground.
Frightened, Zane quickly went to fetch Aiden.
Upon seeing this situation, Aiden was also at a loss.
They were What could he do?

But he had to try to mediate somehow.
This stalemate couldn’t continue forever.
“Uh… Josiah, how about I set up a private table for you and Lysanne?”
Josiah gave him a glance.
Aiden laughed awkwardly. “You don’t want to play? That’s fine. You can sit and rest for a bit.”
Adrian spoke up leisurely. “Aiden, set up a table for me. Make sure it’s the furthest one from here.”
Aiden nodded quickly. “Sure, how about that one in the corner?”
“That works.”
Pointing to the distant table, Aiden called out, “Set that table up for me, quick!”
Adrian turned slightly to Lysander. “Do you still want to learn? If so, let’s go over there where quieter.”
Lysander nodded. “Let’s go.”

But a hand blocked their way.
Josiah said, “Aiden, go play with your brother for a while. He needs a partner.”
As clueless as Aiden was, he understood what was happening and decided to play dumb. “I’m no ma for my brother. Not even ten of me could win. I’d rather not be cannon fodder…”
Josiah ignored him and stared straight at Lysander. “Are you really going to ignore Priscilla?”
“Dr. Ziegler is protecting her now, so there’s not much I can do,” Lysander replied. “If Harry changes his mind, let him be. If it comes to that, we’ll go through the legal process. It’s just a waste of time. Given Priscilla’s current state of mind, she’s probably not in a hurry to remarry anyway. It’s not a big
deal.”
She looked at Adrian. “Let’s go, Dr. Sutton.”
Adrian nodded “Okay”

“Wait.” Josiah chuckled coldly. “Lysander, are you really going to abandon me after using me?”
“I’ve always been polite to you, Mr. Guerra. If that’s not enough, I can thank you on Priscilla’s behalf once more. Thank you for saving her. I’ll inform Dr. Ziegler. He’s a good man who always repays. kindness. Don’t you worry, Mr. Guerra.”
Josiah laughed angrily. “What connection do I have with Priscilla or your Dr. Ziegler that would make me go to such lengths to set up a trap for Harry?”
“You have a kind heart, Mr. Guerra,”
“You can ask Aiden and the others. I’ve never been known for my kindness.”
“People do change.”
“Lysander, do you have nothing else to say to me?”
Lysander hesitated. “Uh, get pregnant soon?”
Lysanne suddenly turned pale and forced a laugh. “Dr. Thorne, you’re really hitting me where it hurts.”
Lysander said, “It’s not my fault you can’t have children, Ms. Lysanne. Given our relationship, I don’t have to consider your feelings all the time. I’ve fulfilled my duty as a doctor, but personally, I’ve told you before to not bother me again.”
Lysanne’s eyes reddened, and she wiped them with the back of her hand. “I’m sorry, it was my fault previously…”
“That’s enough. Stop this act. By the way, your friend Ms. Elmore gave me some documents today. She said if I sign them, she’ll give me a seaside villa and a house in the school district. I just signed them. Ms. Lysanne, remember to keep your promise.”
Josiah’s expression darkened instantly, and Lysanne quickly shook her head. “Josiah, it wasn’t me who sent her. I didn’t know Yvie would go to Dr. Thorne. I really wasn’t me…”
