Chapter 508 Mister And Miss.

Nieva flashed a smile, gazing out at the sunlight in the garden. “The weather has been so lovely lately. It seems such a waste to stay cooped up indoors all the time. Since we’re here, we should definitely get out more. There’s a canyon nearby that I’ve been planning to hike. However, Aurora keeps holding me back. What do you think, Mr. Guerra? Do you have some free time? It would be good practice for when you have children of your own!”

Josiah glanced at Lysander. “I am fine with it. What about you?”

Lysander furrowed her brows. “Don’t you need to go back to work at your company?”

“My work can be handled remotely,” said Josiah, “Your main task is to focus on your studies. You do your part, and I’ll take care of Aurora. I won’t

“you”

Lysander still felt uneasy. “Ms. Lionhart, neither Mr. Guerra nor I have any experience with taking care of children. I am afraid we might not do a good job.”

Nieva blinked. “What’s so difficult about it? Aurora is easy to handle. Plus, you have your professional skills to rely on. You might even do a better job than me. Of course, I won’t force it. it is all up to you.”

Nieva was a benefactor. She had just done a favor, so it wouldn’t be right to refuse her now.

However, asking Josiah to take care of Aurora…

It seemed as if Josiah had noticed Lysander’s worried expression. He asked, “Ms. Lionhart, how long do you plan to be away?”

“It should take at least a day or two. This mountain range is not particularly vast, so it shouldn’t take too long.

Josiah nodded. “A day or two should be fine.”

Upon seeing him nod, Nieva immediately affirmed, “Okay, it is settled then. I’ll go back to my room to

the mountain climbing gear. Oh, between the tents and the climbing ropes, there’s just so much to

prepare

sort out.

Josiah teased, “There’s no need to rush. You can extend your hike for another day or two.”

“Really now, you’re mixing business with pleasure, Mr. Guerra,” Nieva said, handing her daughter over to him. She then bent down to stroke Aurora’s head, advising gently, “Mommy will be away for a few days, but Mr. Guerra and Lysander will take care of you. Be a good girl and don’t cry, okay?”

Aurora opened her eyes wide, oblivious to what was about to happen next.

Josiah was immediately displeased. “it is Josiah and Lysander.

Nieva confronted him directly, “You’re thirty years older than my daughter. Do you really have the audacity to let her call you by your name?”

“Well, Mr. Guerra and Lysander sound weird.”

Nieva laughed heartily. “But Ms. Thome is so young and pretty. Calling her ‘Miss‘ doesn’t fit, right, Aurora?”

The baby didn’t understand a word but responded enthusiastically to her mother’s voice with nods and babbling.

Nieva tapped her daughter’s nose. “See, even Aurora agrees with me.”

“Fine, call us whatever you want.” Josiah sighed. “Today I am at the bottom of the food chain.”

Nieva’s tone shifted as she teased, “Calling her “Lysander‘ is just for now. In the future, you might call her Mrs. Guerra, right. Mr. Guerra?”

Josiah laughed. “Don’t start. You should spend more time with Elio.”

Nieva tossed her hair. “He’s probably hanging around some aquarium again, not wanting to listen to me anyway. But that’s fine. I don’t want to talk to him either. Bye now.”

The ever–thoughtful Lysander stopped Nieva to ask. “Ms. Lionhart, what formula does the baby drink?”

Nieva pushed the baby stroller toward them and placed the backpack nearby. “Formula, bottles, snacks, and toys are inside. The diapers and clothes are all underneath the stroller.”

For a baby just over six months old, this seemed sufficient. Lysander noted everything Nieva mentioned and watched her leave in the elevator with Josiah.

After Nieva left, Lysander checked the items in the stroller. Everything matched what Nieva had said, and she felt slightly relieved.

Turning around, she saw Aurora about to cry after realizing her mother had left. Josiah was using flowers from the table to distract her.

Seeing Lysander looking over, Josiah said softly, “Nieva seems carefree but is actually very attentive. Don’t worry too much. If anything’s missing, we can have someone buy it.”

“Ms. Lionhart helped Daphne a lot this time. I have to take good care of her child out of gratitude.”

Josiah said, “For the Lionhart family, fifty or sixty million is not a big deal.”

“That’s only because of your influence.”

Josiah paused but didn’t deny it. “So I need to take extra good care of the child to live up to Nieva’s trust.”

“You’re quite good at holding Aurora.”

Lysander asked, “Do you still want seafood?”

“What

“You’ve helped Daphne build connections and secure investments. We truly owe it to you. I am not someone who doesn’t appreciate kindness. I can’t just accept help without expressing my gratitude.”

After some thought, Josiah asked, “Can I ask for a different kind of gratitude?”

Immediately, Lysander became alert.

Josiah chuckled. “You treat me like a thief now. I couldn’t even see the moon with you. What could I nossibly do?”

“Then what do you want?”

“Hand me the toys from the stroller. Aurora is curious but gets bored quickly. The flowers aren’t holding her attention anymore.”

Lysander found some plush toys and handed them to Josiah, who started entertaining the baby,

But Aurora wasn’t easily appeased this time. She pouted, on the verge of tears.

Josiah panicked a bit. “Lysander, see what’s wrong with her?”

Lysander recalled how nurses at Central Hospital soothed babies. Calming down, she suggested. “Try walking around with her. Babies don’t like staying still. Or hold on while I prepare her milk.”

Josiah was oddly confident. “You haven’t finished your breakfast yet. Let me do it.”

Aurora was crying harder, ander couldn’t focus on eating. She took the bottle and formula from the stroller and asked a waiter for hot water. After sterilizing the bottle, she mixed the formula at the right temperature. She then handed the warm bottle over.

Josiah walked around with Aurora, trying to calm her. She cried less but was still upset until the bottle was handed to her, stopping her tears.

“So she was hungry.”

Aiden arrived at the restaurant, noticing Josiah’s tall figure immediately. He lifted a brown document bag. cheerfully calling out, “Josiah, I brought…”

Halfway through, he noticed Lysander and the baby they were both looking at. His mouth dropped open

surprise.
