In the tumultuous scene, a mother, cradling her child in her arms, implored, “Dr. Thorne is the one who saved your life! Could you please just behave for a bit?”

The child, tears streaming down his face, was desperately seeking comfort from his accompanying grandmother.

Despite this, when they noticed Josiah standing off to the side while holding a lunch box, they didn’t miss a chance to flash a cheeky smile at Lysander before they headed back to their dorm for a meal.

Josiah remarked as he approached, “I’ve kept the lunch box warm all the way here, so it should still be hot. You better eat it while it’s warm.”
