Chapter 607 Human Hearts Are Inherently Biased

Howard subconsciously wanted to speak up for Josiah, but recalling the hardships Lysander had faced in the past, he immediately swallowed his words.

Human hearts were inherently biased.

Although he had watched Josiah grow up and had been a great help in his company, he still held a deeper affection for his biological daughter.

Molly wholeheartedly agreed with Maverick’s point of view. “Maverick’s got it right. Our little Lysa doesn’t have any experience in love, she could easily fall prey to a bad boy.”

Susan let out a dry chuckle. “I wouldn’t say she has absolutely no experience in love, she has been through some things, after all.”

Upon hearing this, Michelle was taken aback. “Madam Susan, you know about Zachary too?”

Susan was stunned. “Who is Zachary…?”

Laura explained, “He’s my close friend’s son. I’ve known him since he was little, and we’ve always been very close. I think highly of him–he’s dependable and forward–thinking, but…”

Susan’s face paled slightly. She glanced at her own son, only to see Josiah busily pouring drinks for Maverick and Howard, not showing any particular emotion.

Upon hearing this, Maverick quickly interjected, “Let’s not bring up the past.”

Laura nodded in agreement. “True, Lysa’s background has changed significantly now. The gap between her and Zachary is just too wide.”

Molly, on the other hand, seemed quite intrigued. “Honestly, if the boy is genuinely good, there’s no need to fuss over his family background. We’re not some old–fashioned household after all. As long as he treats our little Lysa well, that’s all that matters, right, Laura?”

Laura was just about to speak up when Maverick immediately furrowed his brows and interjected. “It has nothing to do with family background, it’s impossible for him and Eysa to be together.”

Molly turned to Lysander and asked, “Lysa, what do you think?”

Lysander’s mind was filled with images of small islands in the Pascal Ocean. She chuckled lightly and responded, “I don’t like him.”

It wasn’t just a lack of romantic feelings she had for him, what she detested even more was the character of Zachary himself.

After hearing these words, Molly could only relent. “You’re right. The next time you look for a boyfriend. you must find someone who truly appeals to you, someone who meets your heart’s desires. You can’t rush into marriage like you did the last time.”
