Chapter 328 Are You Driving Me Away Again

After some thought, Lysander concluded that was the only logical e planation for her rescue.

Zachary probably hadn’t anticipated that Harry could go to such ext emes. He had obtained what he wanted, but in the process, he had managed to offend both her and Josiah. He must be wishing he could avoid seeing them forever.

“How are you feeling now?” Josiah sat down beside Lysander’s bed, reaching out to touch her forehead. “Seems like you still have a bit of a fever.”

Lysander tilted her head slightly, attempting to evade his touch.

Despite her efforts, her limited space for maneuvering still didn’t allow her to evade.

“I’ve washed my hands,” said Josiah. “They shouldn’t smell bad.”

Lysander still shook her head.

Josiah withdrew his hand, asking, “Would you like to continue lying down or sit up

Lysander typed: I’m fine with either,

for a while?”

With a slight smile, Josiah moved to the foot of the bed. He turned the crank, and the hospital bed gradually elevated, gently lifting her upper-body into a sitting position. “Is this height okay?”

She nodded.

Josiah said, “If there’s anything else you want, feel free to tell me.”

Lysander replied: Don’t tell my parents first.

Josiah nodded. “Yes, I understand. I have discussed this matter with the Everhart family, and we agreed not to publicize it.”

Lysander: Thank you.

Josiah saw the words on her screen and chuckled. “I get what you’re saying, but this time, a simple ‘thank you’ won’t cut it. I’m injured too, so it looks like we both might need some time to recover.”

His voice was somewhat hoarse, and he lifted his arm to show her his wound.

Lysander: Ask Daphne to come in and keep me company.

“Are you trying to send me away again?” asked Josiah.

Lysander: Aren’t you going to tend to your wound?

Josiah paused for a moment, then said, “All right, I’ll go call her for you.”

When Daphne entered, she was holding her phone and engaged in a voice message conversation with

someone.

Seeing Lysander’s gaze, Daphne reassured, “My dad found the housekeeper who tricked you. She took five thousand from Harry, agreeing to lure you into the backyard. just can’t believe it. All that for just five thousand?”

Lysander patted the spot next to her, signaling for her friend to con sit.

Daphne waved her hand lightly, pointing to the accompanying chair. “I’ll sit here. I don’t want to crowd

you

Lysander chuckled softly.

“Oh yeah, what did you have to say to Josiah behind my back? Let me tell you, it’s making me a bit uneasy.”

After some thought. Lysander decided it was best not to let Daphne know about Zachary’s matters.

After all: Daphne was a straightforward and loyal person.

If Daphne were to use the power of the Everhart family to jeopardize the project that Zachary had painstakingly secured, Zachary would undoubtedly hold a grudge and retaliate.

Being resented by such a person would lead to endless troubles.

Lysander typed: Mr. Everhart has had a hard time.

come. I never expect

After Daphne finished reading, she was filled with guilt. “If I had known, I wouldn’t have asked you to

Harry to blame everything on you. He’s the type to bully the weak and fear the strong. He wouldn’t dare to mess with Josiah, and he can’t afford to offend Priscilla now, so he can only vent his frustration on you.”

Lysander gently patted her friend’s hand, urging the litter not to blame herself.

Daphne held Lysander’s hand firmly, reassuring her with a solemn promise, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you suffer in vain. Just wait and see. I’ll make sure Harry pays dearly for this!”

Lysander: Don’t mess around.

“Don’t worry about me. I know what I’m doing.” Daphne said. “However, there is a silver lining to all of this. My father has promised not to set me up on anymore blind dates.”

Lysander nodded and typed: What matters most is your own happiness.

“I am happy, but what about you? You were about to go abroad, and now, with this happening at such a critical moment, it seems you can’t go anymore.”

Lysander: I still want to go.
