Chapter 336 She Understood What This Meant

This voice…

Taken aback, Lysander quickly opened the door.

Adrian was completely drenched, water droplets trickling down his hair strands one by one.

Only then did Lysander realize, the rain outside was much heavier than she had ever imagined.

He flicked the water off his head, letting out a chuckle as he asked, “May I come in?”

Lysander quickly stepped back, clearing the way for him to enter through the door.

She then fetched a brand-new towel she’d bought that day from the bathroom and rushed out to hand it to him.

Adrian glanced at the towel she handed him, paused for a moment, and chose not to accept it. “Is this yours?” he asked.

Upon realizing, Lysander quickly waved her hands, indicating that although it belonged to her, she hadn’t used it yet.

Adrian asked, “Do you have any tissues?”

Lysander nodded, grabbed a box of tissues, and gestured toward the living room sofa, indicating for him to sit down.

Adrian grabbed a few tissues and casually wiped the water off his face and arms. “I’m drenched all so I won’t sit down. Is your throat still not better?” he asked.

Lysander gave a slight nod in response.

“Did you take your medication on time?”

She nodded again.

“That’s good, then.”

After drying his face, he glanced down at the floor and said with a hint of apology, “I’ve dirtied the floor again.”

Lysander waved her hand, indicating it was no big deal.

“Still haven’t bought a phone?” Adrian then handed her his own phone without hesitation as he continued, “Use mine for now. It’s easier to communicate via text. We can’t always rely on hand gestures.”

As Lysander didn’t accept it, he simply shoved the phone into her hand.

hand. Son a kis da.

Lysander entered the password, and the phone screen was unlocked.

In that fleeting moment, she let out a slight sigh of relief.

She was genuinely afraid that his phone wallpaper or lock screen w. llpaper was somehow connected to her just like the oil painting in the room.

In fact, she already felt slightly relieved when he revealed the password.

0326 wasn’t her birthday, nor did it have any relevance to her life. Seeing as he was still using the phone’s default wallpaper, Lysander felt a bit more at ease.

A man, who was still in his home country when he made a phone call in the morning, had arrived in Stounia by dawn, even braving a heavy rain in the process.

She wasn’t foolish, so she knew what this implied.

Although she had openly rejected him before, and Adrian had never brought it up again, there were many things that she couldn’t ignore simply by remaining in denial.

Lysander typed: Why did you suddenly come over? Did you inform the hospital? Did the director agree?

The room was shrouded in darkness, illuminated only by the soft glow of a single night light..

Adrian squinted a bit, leaning in closer to have a better look at the phone screen. He gave a slight nod and said, “Yes, and I did study and work in Stounia. The director knows about it too.”

Lysander typed: When are you planning to go back?

Adrian chuckled lightly and asked, “Does my presence make you feel uneasy?”

Lysander typed: No, I’m just worried about your work being disrupted.

“Don’t worry, I have another place to stay. I was planning to come over tomorrow, but then I remembered that the wiring in this house is a bit old. Sometimes, when it rains, the power might go out. I was worried you’d be scared all by yourself here, so I came to check on you. Seeing that you’re okay puts me at ease. I’ll be leaving in a bit.”

Feeling a hint of embarrassment, Lysander typed: Thank you.

“Are you thanking me for coming to see you?” Adrian asked.

Lysander typed: Thank you for this house.

Daphne claimed she knew the owner of the house, and Lysander didn’t say anything about it at the time. However, she didn’t believe a single word of it.

When she saw the oil painting hanging in the living room, her suspicions were further confirmed.
