Chapter 550 He Was Teaching Her

Once they were alone, they both couldn’t stay still any longer. Lysander was the first to turn around and. return to her room.

Josiah closely followed behind.

The room had already been tidied up by the cleaning lady. The clutter and debris from the broken chair that morning had vanished without a trace. Even the slightest hint of Aurora’s presence had disappeared.

Lysander walked over and ran her fingers over the now smooth bedsheet, feeling a wave of dejection wash over her.

The events of the past few days were indeed nothing more than a surreal dream from which she had now awakened.

Lysander mumbled to herself, “If I had known we would part ways so quickly, I should’ve at least asked Ms. Lionhart for her contact information.”

Josiah said, “I have her phone number. If you’re thinking about Aurora, you can reach out to her.”

“Never mind.” Lysander seemed quite understanding. “Babies always prefer their mother’s company, and besides, Ms. Lionhart will be really busy.”

Josiah agreed, “I didn’t expect Elio to go to such lengths. However, the Lionhart family is powerful and not one to be trifled with. It’s not necessarily a given that Nieva will be at a disadvantage.”

What he discussed pertained to matters of inheritance. After all, Elio wasn’t a real member of the Lionhart family.

What Lysander was pondering, however, was something else entirely. “Once a man’s feelings change, he can become utterly heartless toward the woman he no longer loves, let alone now when his heart is probably filled with thoughts of his new family.”

Josiah’s expression was somber, no longer bringing up the topic of Nieva’s marriage. Instead, he asked, “Do you want me to help her?”

“Your relationship with Elio seems pretty good, isn’t it?”

“In the world of business, there are no friends. Simply, the fewer people you offend, the less trouble you’ll encounter.”

Lysander remained silent.

So, Josiah asked again, “Do you want me to help Nieva?”

“How can you help?” Lysander asked. “Elio might not be so easy to deal with.”

“He only has to deal with the Lionhart family for now, but if I were to get involved, he might need to think

twice.”
