Lysander naturally continued to ask, “Is your hand okay?”

Josiah’s voice softened slightly. “It’s fine.”

His hands appeared broad and dependable, even though they were injured, they didn’t look frightening.

Lysander said seriously, “I’m really grateful for your help.”

“What kind of mark?”

“A circle with a check mark in the middle.”

Lysander shook her head.

“That’s a mark left by a thief checking out the place.

“What does that mark mean? My house doesn’t have anything valuable, and my daily items are pretty cheap.”
