Chapter 159 He Is Not Josiah In her rather remote hometown, the sight of a Cayenne was extremely rare.
Upon taking a look, Lysander immediately withdrew her gaze.
"Should we call the police?" Zachary asked.
Lysander shook her head. "This area is pretty bustling. It could just be a coincidence that we're on the sroute. They might not be following me." Zachary gave a somewhat relieved chuckle. "I was just a bit worried that it might be a troublemaker from the hospital." "Nah, I've always had a pretty good relationship with my pregnant patients.” Zachary finally relaxed and continued to talk to her about Michelle. “Michelle is about to take her college entrance exams. She mentioned totoday that she wants to go to university in Apex City with that boy." After sthought, Lysander said, "All right, I understand the situation now. I'll have a word with Michelle later." "That boy is actually quite decent. When it comes to studying, sometimes it's about natural talent. Even though he's just average academically, he excels in sports. It's also quite an achievement if he manages to secure a place in a top-tier physical education university. After graduation, becoming a sports teacher wouldn't be such a bad thing." Lysander chuckled. “Zachary, so you approve of Michelle being with that be?" Chapter 159 He Is Not Josiah "Well, you see, Michelle isn't my biological sister, so whether I approve or disapprove doesn't really matter. I simply admire him for his courage.

Lysander comforted, "Life, you see, is all about gains and losses. It all comes down to the choices we make." "Lysander, have you ever regretted it?" "What's there to regret?" "Not having experienced a pure and innocent love during your school days." Lysander did not respond.
"I deeply regret it." Zachary gave a bitter smile. "But it seems like regret doesn't do much good now." Right then, the door of the café was open as someone made their entrance.
The sweet and charming voice of the waitress standing by the bar rang out. "Welcome, may I take your order?" Lysander was sitting with her back toward the entrance. She couldn't see anyone, but she could hear a voice ordering. "A cup of mocha, full milk, half sugar." "All right, please hold on for a moment.” Lysander stood up. "Zachary, let's get going." "Did your phone ring?" Zachary asked with a hint of confusion.
"No, but it's about twe head home. I mean, dating is one thing, but we can't just not go hfor dinner, right?" Zachary nodded with a smile. "All right." Lysander fixed her gaze on the ground as she walked past the bar.
Zachary was quite the gentleman. He quickened his pace to get ahead of her and courteously held the door of the café open for her.
Lysander said politely, "Thank you, Zachary." "Let's go." The white Cayenne was parked by the roadside.
The downside of small towns was evident. The surrounding infrastructure was rather outdated. Even bustling areas lacked proper parking facilities.
The white Cayenne could only park by the roadside. Its imposing appearance quickly attracted a crowd of curious boys.
Lysander cast a glance inside, finding it completely devoid of people.

Lysander checked her mobile app. Sure enough, the queue for Uber bookings had already surpassed thirty/2- 4DR PM Chapter 159 He Is Not Josiah She lifted her head, gracing him with a radiant smile. "Then thank you for the trouble, Zachary," Due to her profession, Lysander rarely smiled. She kept a steady and calm look most of the time.
Even when she smiled, it was usually a faint one, rarely was it as radiant and charming as it was now.
Zachary froze for a few seconds, his face suddenly flushing a shade of red. He nervously rubbed his hand's against each other. "It's no trouble at all. I'll get the car now. It's not far. Just wait fora bit. I'll be back soon." "All right. I'll call Michelle. We'll wait for you right here." Zachary nodded emphatically, then darted off toward the neighboring alley.
Lysander stood still for a moment with her phone in hand when Michelle's call cthrough.
"Lysander, where are you guys?" "Has your little boyfriend left?" "Yeah. Did Zachary tell you everything already?" "He did. Once your college entrance exams are over, invite him out. I'd like to have a chat with him."
"Lysander!" Michelle was on the verge of tears. "You're not going to be as old-fashioned as Mom and Dad, are же you? Just because you never experienced a campus romance, doesn't mean you can stopfrom having one, right?"
"Who said I'm stopping you? I just want to have a chat with him. If you're going to follow him to Apex City to attend university, I need to Hollow understand his situation first before I can let you go with peace of mind. What are you afraid of? I'm not going to torture him." Michelle was ecstatic. "Lysander! You're not against it?" "Everything will have to wait until after I've spoken with him. If he proves to be unreliable, I won't hesitate to object." "He's not like that. He truly cares for me! He's not Josiah..." Send Gifts 310 X
