Chapter 178 She Has Moved On

“So, what exactly do you want from me? I’m aware that I’ve disappointed you, and I’ve noticed you’ve been ignoring me these past few days. I’ve been hesitant to say anything, worried that I might further upset you. I’ve been walking on eggshells around you…” Lysanne continued, her tone laced with desperation.

“Is this somehow my fault?” Josiah interjected sharply. “When will you stop using threats of death at every opportunity? Remember that time in front of that famous restaurant? You pulled Lysander into the street, and she ended up covered in bruises while protecting you and your unborn child. And now, after your secret has been publicly revealed, you’re thinking of running into the street again? Is there some law I’m not aware of that says dying in a traffic accident yields more compensation than jumping off a building or hanging yourself? Is that what they teach in those law schools overseas?”

Josiah’s words struck Lysanne like a barrage of fine needles, targeting her most vulnerable spots.

She broke down, tears streaming down her face, “Josiah! You say I’ve changed, but look at you! You weren’t this harsh before!”

“If we’re discussing aggressive behavior, I must have picked it up from you.”

“Do you hate me that much?”

The man did not respond.

At this, Lysanne continued, “All right, you hate me, but then who is it you do love? Dr. Thorne? You just saw her, didn’t you? Getting into the passenger seat of another man’s car! She knows exactly what that implies. and yet she went ahead and did it!”

“Enough!” Josiah declared, no longer wanting to hear any more. “I went through with the formalities as a sign of respect for your parents. I’m leaving now, do whatever you want.”
