Lysander nodded.
When Fred had sent her the address, she had already begun to regret it.
She really didnât want to visit that place for a second time.
However, Fred sincerely needed her help, akin to an old father marrying off his daughter, both anxious and helpless. Hearing that softened her heart, and she genuinely couldnât bring herself to refuse.
However, she was alone and feared she wouldnât be able to handle it.
The concept of marriage necessitated a social butterfly to hold court, and with Fredâs encouragement for her to invite more friends, Daphne immediately sprang to her mind.
Lysander asked, âMs. Everhart, are you free this weekend?â
Surprisingly, Daphne snorted. âI sure do. Why wouldnât I be? I would like to meet Dr. Zieglerâs daughter too. I wonder if sheâs extremely short-sighted.â
âI smell a story.â â
Daphne said in annoyance, âI also received a wedding invitation, same time and place.â
There was no doubt that Daphne didnât know Fred, which left only one possibility. The invitation Daphne received must have come from the groom himself.
Thus, Lysander asked, âWho?â
âHarry,â answered Daphne.
Astonishment consumed Lysander completely. âWho did you say?â
âHahaha, who else could it be? Itâs none other than my ex-boyfriend, the scum of the earth. He was the reason both of us failed our college entrance exams, and in the end, he managed to secure a recommendation to Apex University, ranking third in our entire grade.â
Lysander was completely distraught. Fred is a decent man. If his daughter were to marry

She was somewhat worried.
Daphne said, âNever mind, I hadnât planned on going initially, but since youâre going too, I might as well check it out. If he has turned over a new leaf, then I wish the bride a happy marriage and a quick blessing of a child. However, if heâs still a scoundrel, Iâm going to step in and rescue the damsel in distress right then and there.â
The wedding date was set for Sunday.
Lysander and Daphne arrived at five in the morning.
After they got out of the car. Daphne said. âYou go ahead and find Dr. Ziegler. Iâll park the car. Weâll

meet up in the lobby later.â
Lysander rushed straight to the makeup room, where Fred had opened the door for her. âLysander! Youâve finally arrived. Come in quickly, come in.â
Fredâs daughter, who appeared to be in her early twenties, was seated in front of a mirror, applying makeup. Her age was one of innocence and charm.
When Fredâs daughter saw Lysander, she flashed a smile. âHello, Lysander.â
Lysander responded with a laugh. âYou know me?â
âOf course I know who you are. My dad always mentions you. He says youâre the star of their hospital. Who knows. I might need your help soon.â
Immediately, Lysander discerned the hidden meaning in the conversation. Her eyes briefly swept over the young womanâs abdomen, which seemed fairly flat at the moment.
Fred quietly told her, âShe accidentally got pregnant and was worried that as the months passed, she wouldnât be able to fit into her wedding dress. Thatâs why everything was prepared in a hurry. I didnât even have time to ask someone to be her bridesmaid. Thatâs why I called you over today at the last minute.â
Lysander felt a bit of pity. âIndeed, it is somewhat rushed.â
Fred was somewhat heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do. After all, his daughter was already pregnant, and he didnât want her to have a child before marriage.
Moreover, even though society has become much more accepting of having a child before marriage. itâs still generally seen as more respectable to get married before starting a family.
Fred pressed a large monetary gift into Lysanderâs hand. âI know youâre still nursing an injury, and your presence here today is purely out of respect for me. Please accept this as a small token of my appreciation. Donât refuse.â
Lysander playfully shook the monetary gift in her hand.
It was very heavy.
Judging by the thickness, it must contain at least thirty to forty thousand.
Fred patted her shoulder firmly. âAs long as youâre aware of the childâs situation, thatâs enough. When the time comes for Priscilla to give birth, weâll need your assistance.â
âDonât worry,â Lysander reassured. âAlthough, Dr. Ziegler, have you met the groom yet? What⦠What do you think of him?â
Ered finally wore a satisfied smile on his face. âThat young man is impressive indeed. He did his undergraduate studies at Apex University and went to Stounia for his postgraduate. Heâs an exceptional individual.â
