Chapter 274 An Enemy Approaches
Lysander frowned. “And you are?”
“I’m Ms. Elmore, legal advisor for Guerra Group.” The woman spread a folder out in front of her. “Please sign this document.”
“Guerra Group? Did Josiah send you?”
The woman gave a slight smile. “Kind of, but not really. However, you can take a look at this document first, then we can talk further.”
Before Lysander reacted, Daphne had already taken the document.
She rustled through two pages, then exclaimed in surprise, “A transfer agreement?”
The woman nodded slightly. “Yes, this is a transfer agreement for a beach-front mansion. I have appraised this mansion, and it is currently worth about fifty million. Moreover, the scenery is pleasant, and the surrounding environment is quiet, which is particularly suitable for the elderly to retire. Oh, and this…”
The woman took the folder back, flipped to another page, and placed it back in front of Lysander. “There’s also this bungalow with an area of two hundred and sixty square meters, right next to the science and engineering university. It’s a two-minute walk to the school, so if you don’t want to live on campus, you can go home every day. By the way, the housekeeper and part-timer will come to clea and cook at fixed times. You don’t have to worry about their salaries, as someone will pay for it. T same goes for the beach-front mansion.”
Daphne asked, “Are these for free?”
“Of course. As long as Dr. Thorne signs off on them, I can handle the paperwork when I get back. There’s no need for Dr. Thorne to run around.”
“Haha, what’s going on with Josiah? Does he think he has too much money?”
The woman laughed politely. “Doesn’t this address the concerns you have been harboring, Dr. Thor Taking care of your elderly parents and your younger sister’s education, all these can now be solved. What other concerns
o you
have?”
Lysander subconsciously felt that something was not quite right.
ng on her.
She had made it very clear last time to Josiah that she didn’t buy into the idea of him splurging
What is this now?
“Let me confirm once again. Was it Josiah who sent you?”
The woman’s eyes suddenly twinkled as she lowered her head and chuckled. “It’s true that I’m from Guerra Group’s legal department, but I also have the right to handle personal matters
Daphne was shocked. “It wasn’t Josiah? Then who is it that’s so generous?”

The smile on the woman’s face completely disappeared, replaced by a hostile expression. “Dr. Thorne, there’s an old saying that goes, ‘quit while you’re ahead. Since you need a house and there’s someone willing to give you one without you having to pay anything, why wouldn’t you take it?”
Lysander cut straight to the point. “You probably have more to say; there are additional conditions to. this agreement, right?”
The woman laughed. “Someone as sharp as you makes my job easy. Yes, it goes without saying there are certain conditions attached.”
“Tell me.”
“The hope is that you can sever all ties with Mr. Guerra, it would be best if you never saw each other. again.”
Daphne suddenly laughed. “Here I was, thinking it was something else. Don’t worry, it’s absolutely fine. Where should I sign?”
The woman snatched back the folder that Daphne had taken, pretending to dust off the non-existent “dust” on it, and disdainfully said, “I need Dr. Thornes signature.”
Daphne laughed. “What’s the matter, afraid I’ll dirty your folder?”
“I’m not particularly afraid, but if it gets dirty, I’ll have to reprint a copy, which is quite troublesome.”
Daphne abruptly slammed the table and stood up. “Who sent you here?”
The woman was just as resolute. She looked straight back and replied, “I’m sorry, I cannot disclose
“D*mn you…
Lysander held her back. “You’re the legal advisor of Guerra Group and your surname is Elmore. Ma ask if Yvonne Elmore is your-
“I am her.”
Lysander suddenly understood and laughed softly. “So that’s how it is.”
Daphne looked puzzled. “Who’s Yvonne?”
“Lysanne’s classmate from elementary school through high school. They have a good relationship.”
“Lysanne?” Daphine asked, “Did she place her cousin as a secretary for Josiah in Guerra Group and even planted her best friend as the legal advisor? Hehe, Josiah is really something, allowing Guerra Group to be infiltrated to that extent. I really don’t know if Guerra Group will still bear the surname Guerra or change to Thorne in the future.”
Yvonne said softly, “You actually know me, Dr. Thome?”

“A few months ago, during a class reunion at Mirage, saw you.” Lysander said. “I heard Ms. Lysanne call your name, you were always protecting her stomach.”
