From a distance, Lysander observed the handprints on his clothes, a rare sight of disarray about him.

Josiah seemed to sense her gaze on him, and just then, he turned his head to look at her. Their eyes met briefly before parting as he took two steps forward, and then, unexpectedly, he broke into a relieved smile.

“Yes,” he answered.

Blaine, noticing Josiah’s refined attire and extraordinary demeanor, quickly realized he was no ordinary man. Blaine then hurriedly approached, saying to the children first, “All right. Let’s not crowd around here anymore. You’re blocking the road.”

Josiah didn’t deny it. He simply offered a slight smile and said, “This time, I brought over some common medication for treating colds and fevers. If you need anything else in the future, you can contact Central Hospital, and they’ll arrange for someone to deliver it.”
