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.

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.
