As Josiah’s words fell, the room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Lysander widened her eyes, staring at Josiah’s prominent features for a good while before she managed to suppress the anger on her face.
She recalled the little girl she had seen at the airport earlier that day, sitting atop a suitcase under her father’s watchful protection. Josiah had observed her for quite some time.
“You… Lysander felt a lump in her throat. “Why don’t you find a woman then? With your charm, Mr. Guerra, many women are willing to have your children.”
Josiah stared at her. “I want you to give me a child.”
He noticed that Lysander’s hand, hanging by her side, had clenched into a tight fist. A trace of pain flashed across her face.
She had said that too many obstacles stood between them at Apex City’s hospital.
However, the fact remained that he could compensate her a thousand times over for all his past experiences with Lysanne.
Yet, he knew very well that none of those were the greatest torment in Lysander’s heart.

That child would forever remain a barrier between the two of them.
Josiah sighed, his demeanor becoming increasingly composed. “I truly yearn for a child, very deeply.”
Lysander inhaled sharply, gripping the edge of the tea table as she retorted, “But what does this have to do with me?”
A hint of sadness was evident in Josiah’s gaze. “I want her to come back,” he said.
