Chapter 527 Help Comes

Tiffany seemed taken aback by Lysander’s sudden change in demeanor, casting a timid glance at Josiah. Seeing no reaction from him, she hesitantly bit her lip and asked, “Lysa, are you feeling upset today? I may not be able to help much, but I can at least lend an ear.”

Lysander’s words were polite yet distant. “I’m feeling okay.”

Even the most dense person would have understood her attitude by then.

Tiffany, like an inexperienced young girl, nodded and said, “All right then.”

She extended her hand, playfully jingling her bracelet in front of Aurora. Successfully eliciting a giggle from Aurora, she, too, broke into a genuine smile. Continuing the conversation with Lysander, she asked, “Lysa, she seems to like me a lot. Can I hold her?”

Lysander didn’t even bother to find an excuse. “No.”

Tiffany paused for a moment, then quickly reassured. “It’s okay, Lysd. I understand that you’re hesitant let me hold the baby because I’m young, inexperienced with children. However, I can learn what I don’t know now. After all, it’s something I’ll eventually need in the future.”

Dillon appeared deep in thought as he studied Lysander, a glint of sharpness flashing in his eyes.

Josiah broke the silence. “Mr. Lanister, Tiffany, dinner time at the restaurant is limited, so if you plan to eat, you’d better hurry up.”
