Chapter 487 Do I Need To Explain Myself
Lysander was feeling extremely dizzy as Josial helped her to sit up by supporting her shoulders. However, in just a blink of an eye, she found herself weakly slumping back into the couch.
Josiah cradled her head in his hand, dropping to one knee to check on her. “Lysander?”
Lysander responded with a hum.
“Can you still walk?”
Lysander gently shook her head, her cheek brushing against his broad palm.
It seems I really have a fever. She had always thought his body temperature was slightly higher than hers, but now his palms felt cool to her.
Without any further hesitation, Josiah removed his own clothes and wrapped her in them. Then, bending down, he scooped her up in his arms and quickly made his way out.
Upon leaving the hotel, Lysander regained some clarity from Apex City’s chilly night breeze.
She groggily opened her eyes, just about to figure out where she was when a gentle touch on the back of her head made her lean onto his shoulder.
“Mr. Lanister.”
Josiah gave a slight nod to the middle–aged man in front of him.
Upon seeing him cradling a woman, Dillon was taken aback. “What’s wrong with Tiff? Is she ill? I can let her trouble you like this, Mr. Guerra. Please, let me take care of her…”
Josiah subtly stepped aside, deftly avoiding Dillon’s reach.
“This isn’t Tiffany.”
Upon hearing this, Dillon took a careful look at the woman in his arms.
Indeed, she appeared somewhat more slender and taller than Tiffany. Tiffany always liked wearing her hair up in a bun, while this woman, despite also having long hair, simply held it loosely up with a clip.
She was draped in what was clearly a man’s blazer, the clothing underneath hidden from view.
Anyone might make a mistake, but a father surely wouldn’t.
“Tiffany has the mind of a child, so, she found the summit boring. Since we’re in Apex City, I told her to go out and have some fun. You can wait for her here if you’d like. I have some matters to attend to right now,
excuse me.”
Josiah held Lysander as they bypassed Dillon, descending the steps toward the street.
After a moment of thought, Dillon hurriedly followed. “I’m sorry, Mr. Guerra. It must have been troublesome for you to have Tiff accompany you on your business trip.”
Josiah was feeling anxious, but he replied nonchalantly, “Don’t worry about it.”

“Is this… Ms. Collins?”
Dillon tried to recall from his memory a woman who would most likely attend the summit with Josiah and also be close enough to be receiving such care.
“Ms. Collins seems to have lost some weight. Is she feeling unwell? My driver is here. Why don’t we take my car, and I’ll drop you off at the hospital.”
Dillon expressed his intention to accompany them as he followed them out.
“It isn’t Ms. Collins either,” said Josiah curtly without bothering to elaborate.
Dillon was suddenly stunned, at a loss for words.
“Mr. Lanister, I appreciate the help.”
Dillon immediately caught on. “I’m coming. I’m coming.”
Josiah was carrying Lysander, his hands were occupied. “Could you please help me open the car door, Mr. Lanister?”
Without thinking. Dillon instinctively moved to open the backseat door.
“Passenger seat,” Josiah said. “Please hurry.”
“Oh, alright then.”
Dillon swiftly opened the passenger side door. He watched as Josiah carefully placed her in the seat, meticulously securing the seatbelt around her.
It was only then that Dillon managed to get a clear look at the woman’s face.
This isn’t the Thorne girl who had caused quite a stir recently, but… she does look somewhat familiar.
For a moment. Dillon couldn’t recall where he had seen her before.
to her st
As Lysander sat down, her consciousness returned tightened her grip on Josiah’s clothing. asking, “What are you doing now?”
Annoyed, Josiah took her hand off himself and firmly tucked it into his jacket. “I’m just helping you fasten your seatbelt.”
Lysander furrowed her brow, shifting in pain. However, her body felt weak and utterly devoid of strength.
“Stop fidgeting. You’ll catch a cold.” Josiah tightened his jacket around her once more and then stepped back, smoothly closing the passenger door behind him.
Lysander clearly heard everything he said, yet her fever–clouded mind couldn’t immediately grasp his intention. She strained to make sense of the scene before her, but despite her efforts, it proved futile.
In the corner of his eye, she noticed Dillon not far away.
Dressed in a suit and leather shoes, his appearance was a blur to her, yet he unmistakably resembled a businessman.

Startled, Lysander slightly furrowed her brows and responded in a polite yet distant manner. “I’m really sorry, Mr. Guerra. Thank you.”
Lysander’s voice was severely hoarse.
Sick as she was, she still pretended not to know him in front of others.
Cognizant of the fact, Josiah drew in a deep breath and said, “It doesn’t matter. You’ve never thanked me anyway. While other men get to enjoy the lemon juice fish you’ve lovingly prepared, all I cold, harsh words.”

you is
Lysander’s mind was a complete mess. She tried to signal him with her eyes, hinting that there were others nearby and that he should not spout such nonsense.
Josiah watched her sickly yet determined struggle and was at a loss for words. He quickly dismissed Dillon. “Mr. Lanister, let’s discuss our collaboration after I’m done with my business. She’s seriously ill and has to get to the hospital at once.”
Left with no other option, Dillon could only nod in agreement: “Alright, alright, do you need a driver, Mr. Guerra?”
“No thanks. She doesn’t feel comfortable with strangers around.”
Josiah slid into the driver’s seat after opening the car door, then drove off.
As he ran a red light, Josiah stole a glance at her. She wasn’t asleep this time, but she still seemed listless. She was leaning against the car, eyes half–closed. Seemingly in deep thought, she wore a vacant expression.
In his memory, there were hardly any instances when Lysander was this obedient and adorable.
“How are you feeling now?”
Lysander raised her hand to rub her eyes, and after leaving a red patch at its corners, she finally regained some of her vision. She muttered to herself, “There were people around earlier. You should have in the back seat.”

Update pls~...
Why no update ???...
Chapters 692 693 ans 694 are impossible to read. Not sure if there was an issue with translation.but the words do not make sense..impossible to follow story line...
I cant get over the fact that the writer is trying to show as if the male lead has committed a grave sin. First he didnt know she was pregnant because she never told him. Second right from the start she never communicated anything. She was unbothered even during her marriage. I am not saying the male lead is great but atleast he seems like a human with emotions unlike her. And there is no context for why she is so emotionless....
The female lead is not charming but an unbothered b word, there is a very big difference. There is no point of extending this story at all because even if you write 1000+ chapters at 1001 the male lead would still be doing everything for her and she wouldnt bat an eye even if someone killed him. I mean honestly either the start should have been written better where we do understand that she was deeply affected because of her divorce or just STOPPPPP. Even for fiction it is annoying....
