Chapter 355 Stop Pretending
“Ms. Lysanne.”
Lysanne turned around, a mix of surprise and joy on her face. “Oh, Dr. Thorne, it’s you! You’re in Stounia now?”
Lysander slowly nodded.
Wow, she has some serious acting skills. I wonder which legendary person she learned from to have bestowed her such skills.
“Yeah.” Lysander chuckled lightly, “I came over here to work.”
“That’s great! Congratulations, Dr. Thorne! You’re so talented. I’m certain you have a boundless future
ahead.”
Lysander said indifferently, “Thank you.”
The wife was taken aback. “Darling, you know this doctor?”
Lysanne appeared somewhat embarrassed as she said, “You could say we’re acquainted. When I first returned to the country, I was involved in a car accident, neither too serious nor too minor, and it was this doctor who saved me. Dr. Thorne is highly skilled and very responsible, with an excellent reputation.”
The wife was instantly overjoyed. “It seems fate has brought us together!”
She then turned to her husband, “I don’t care how you do it, but I want Dr. Thome to take care of me. You go and discuss it with the hospital.”
The husband nodded resignedly. “All right, I’ll go talk to them now.”
With that, he turned and left the ward, presumably to seek out the male doctor.
Due to Lysanne’s flattering words, the young wife had become quite friendly toward Lysander. She not only invited her to sit but also offered her some snacks she had brought back from Ecron, which she took out from the cupboard.
Lysander managed to find a few packets of preserved plums and handed them to her. “Dr. Thorne, these aren’t anything fancy, but they’re quite tasty. Would you like to try some?”
Lysander stared at the plums, not accepting them.
Seeing that, Lysanne found an excuse for Lysander’s action. “These pickled foods aren’t exactly healthy. As a doctor, she might be more mindful of that.”
The mother–to–be nodded and said, “Then I’ll ask my parents to send some other stuff from back home later.
“No need, but thanks for the kind offer. If there’s nothing else, I’ll head back to the office now. You guys carry on with your chat.”

Chapter 355 Stop Pretending
Lysander furrowed her brows and asked, “What is it?”
Taking a deep breath, Lysanne asked, “Did Josiah also come to Stounia?”
“I don’t know,”
“He must have.”
“Weren’t you just telling your best friend that he came here with you? Why are you asking me now?”
Lysanne asked, “Did he go looking for you?”
Lysander didn’t bother to respond.
“Do you have any idea how much he set aside? The entire company’s affairs are being put on hold because he came looking for you…”
“Lysanne, are you here to blame me?”
“How could I dare?”
“It’s just the two of us now, so there’s no need for pretense,” Lysander stated. “I might have passed out that day on the boat, but I didn’t lose my memory. I remember everything you did to me, crystal clear.”
The innocent look in Lysanne’s eyes vanished in an instant.
In its place was an imperceptible smile. “In that case, I won’t beat around the bush. Why have my parents suddenly become so nice to you? What did you say to them?”
“Why don’t you just go and ask them directly?”
“I did, and all they said was that I had done wrong by you and owed you. They wanted to help me make amends.”
“That’s right. That’s all there is to it.”
“No, it’s not!” Lysanne said, “My parents‘ concern for you is too unusual. I secretly saw them signing a will with a lawyer, intending to transfer all of the Thorne family’s wealth to you! Even if they wanted to atone for me, why would they risk our entire fortune!”
“What do you think could be the reason?”
Lysanne gritted her teeth, resentment seeping through her words. “Did you threaten them? Did you say that if they didn’t hand over the Thorne family’s assets to you, you’d tell Josiah to abandon me? After all, he listens to everything you say now. As long as you speak up, he’ll definitely do as you say without any
hesitation!”
Lysander shook her head. “I don’t believe I’m that charming
“Hah! Lysander, are you flaunting this in front of me? Are you seeking revenge? Yes, it’s true I can’t stand to see you doing well and wish nothing more than your demise. Only with your death can my life return to how it used to be. You hate me for almost pushing you to your death, don’t you? Stop acting so aloof, like nothing bothers you. You hate me, don’t you!”
