Josiah was fully aware that he was at fault. Indeed, he bore the full responsibility for that incident.

He awkwardly touched his nose and said, “The reward…”

He then gently stroked the kitten’s head, his voice softening considerably. “Could I have the opportunity to care for the little feline? For example, help it clean its litter box. That wouldn’t be too much to ask, would it?

Indeed, it wasn’t unreasonable, but Lysander still couldn’t agree, rejecting it outright and without hesitation.

“I won’t consider it. You’ve just taught me that the most important thing in managing a company is to separate public and private matters. We should never let personal feelings interfere with our work. Now, you’re helping me plan my work and fit into Thorne Constructions and Energies, which is a professional matter. However, my home is my personal space. After work, I still want to be on my own.”

The image of Adrian helping Lysander walk the dog surfaced in Josiah’s mind, causing a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth. Someone did that before and failed. I don’t think I should do the same.

It wasn’t that kittens and puppies weren’t adorable enough, but her vigilance was simply too high, leaving no room for any slip–ups.

Lysander noticed he had fallen silent, and she couldn’t resist adding another comment to completely quash any remaining objections. “Besides, it only takes a few minutes to clean up the cat litter. I could easily do it while I’m pouring a glass of water. I did some research. Take a look at this.”

Lysander handed over her phone for him to see.

On a certain orange–colored app, the product listed was an automatic, no–scoop cat litter box.

“Technology changes life,” Lysander said.

Josiah didn’t say anything in response.

The petite Ragdoll kitten had been playing on him for just a short while before it grew tired. Upon hearing Lysander mention that she was going to buy something for it, the cat immediately hopped down from the couch cover onto the floor and swiftly made its way to Lysander’s feet.

Meow!

The kitten’s mew was soft and endearing, tugging at Lysander’s heartstrings. Without hesitation, she bent down and scooped it onto her lap. One hand continued to stroke its smooth fur while the other kept flipping through the documents, jotting down notes and sketching. She managed to do both without any
