Zachary seemed to notice that her complexion wasn’t looking good. He asked, “What’s wrong? Did I say something that upset you?”
Lysander shook her head, closed her eyes, and leaned back. “No, it’s just that today was a bit busy, and I’m tired.”
“You should lean back and take a nap. I’ll call you when it’s time.”
“Zachary,”
“Hmm?”
“Is your company going to have a dinner soon?”
Zachary raised his eyebrows. “How did you know? I was just about to tell you. Our company has recently completed a project, and the management has decided to hold a celebration banquet. We plan to go to a high–end karaoke lounge, and family members are welcome. I want to take you and introduce you to my colleagues.
Lysander nodded. “Okay.”
“What’s wrong with you? You seem a bit odd today.”
“Since we’re going to karaoke lounge, is there going to be drinking?”
“It’s a celebration, isn’t it? There’s bound to be some drinking. Can’t you drink?”
“I can drink a little, but my tolerance for alcohol isn’t good.”
“No worries, you can drink to your heart’s content when the time comes. Even if you get drunk, it’s will take good care of you.”
Lysander’s head had already turned to look outside the window. “Mmm–hmm.”
“Could you spare some time this Saturday? I’ll come to pick you up.”
okay. I
“Let’s talk about it later. There are a few pregnant women whose conditions are still unstable. I might not be able to get away this weekend.”
“Lysander, you should also take some time to relax. Work is very important, but you shouldn’t push yourself so hard…”
Zachary suddenly stopped the e car.
They were right at the entrance of Central Hospital.
Lysander asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Lysander, is that Mr. Guerra?

Chapter 228 Is That Mister Guerra
The sky was beginning to drizzle.
Pedestrians on the road had started to open their umbrellas one after another.

Yet he seemed utterly unaware, letting the rain drench him, even allowing it to extinguish the cigarette he was holding in his hand.
Two patrolling security guards passed by.
“He’s here again?”
“Isn’t it obvious? He comes here every day, but no one knows who he’s waiting for, and he never finds them. Can’t he just make a phone call?”
“Forget it. This is a hospital, there are plenty of people who have bad memories here.”
“He looks quite pitiful, sigh.”
Right then, the phone suddenly rang.
It was Daphine on the line.
“Lysander, I personally went to Guerra Group in the afternoon and relayed your words to Josiah, and he agreed.”
Lysander hummed in acknowledgement. “That’s good then.”
“Also, he asked me when you usually get off work. I initially didn’t want to tell him, fearing he would go looking for you again. But he kept asking, so I deliberately told him that you’ve been very busy at the hospital recently, working overtime a lot, and can’t leave until midnight. Sometimes you stay up all night and just sleep in the hospital office. Anyway, I didn’t give him a specific time, just made it hard for him to figure out. Hehe, don’t worry, I will never let him disturb you again.”
The space in the car was not large, and the car window was still closed.
It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Even without using the speakerphone, Zachary could easily hear Daphne’s voice on the other end of the
line.
In the cover of darkness, Lysander snuck a glance at Zachary.
She saw him slightly squinting his eyes, looking at the distant figure of Josiah. His fingers tapped lightly on the steering wheel. A faint smile she had never seen before lingered on his lips, as if he was lost in thought.
