Chapter 405 Will You Change My Dressing

Josiah embraced her from behind. “Lysander, will you change my dressing?”

“How about I transfer another one hundred and fifty to you? I understand you don’t want to owe me anything. I can transfer it to you right now.”

Lysander pulled away the hands resting on her waist. “There’s a fully–equipped burn department in the hospital and specialized surgical nurses. Don’t come looking for me.”

“I just want you.”

Lysander’s hand was already resting on the door handle.

She fell silent for a moment, striving to keep her voice as calm as possible. “Josiah, let’s drop it.”

“Are you tired? It’s all right. I can head to the burn department…”

“I’m talking about you and I.”

Josiah’s voice held a hint of hesitation. “What do you mean?”

“It’s exactly what you’re thinking. We were once close as husband and wife, but now that we’re divorced, we’re nothing more than strangers. You don’t need to concern yourself with my affairs anymore, nor do you need to explain so much to me. Honestly, I don’t want to hear it. If possible, I’d rather we never see each other again.”

Josiah remained silent.

Yet, it was clear that his temper was flaring as his breathing grew heavier. “Lysander, what do I need to do to make you feel my remorse and love?”

“You don’t have to do anything. I don’t need any form of remorse, let alone love. That’s all. Send my regards to Madam Susan for me.”

When she returned to the ward, only Daphne was there.

Daphne whistled. “The pretentious b*tch has left.”

“Did you chase her away with your harsh words?”

“Do I look like that
