Chapter 136 What She Desires Is Irrelevant

“No, it doesn’t hurt.”

Susan sighed a few times. “Your grandmother’s last words will forever remain unknown now. Josiah, this will always be a regret in my heart.”

“Mmm–hmm.”

“I can’t really comment on your situation, but I must admit, if Lysander hadn’t been here today, I might have been in danger. Counting this time, Lysander has saved me twice now.”

Josiah was lost in thought, his gaze directed downwards.

Susan looked at her son and asked, “Where’s Lyss?”

“I had Aiden take her home first.”

“Back to your place?”

“No, back to her parent’s nursing home.”

Susan gave a slight nod. “That’s not a bad idea. Given her current state, it

mountains for some peace and quiet. But Mrs. Thorne… Sigh, after all the “Sht be good for her to stay in the

years as neighbors, I’m worried

about how her health might be affected once Lysanne leaves. Maybe you could visit her later to check on her.”

Just as Josiah was about to nod, his cellphone began to ring.

Chapter 137 Threatening To Break Up

Chapter 137 Threatening To Break Up

Carol briefly explained the situation.

In a nutshell, Lysanne’s cousin, Leo, who had previously served as his secretary, was extorted blackmailed by someone again. The blackmailer insisted on a payment of three million and threatened to expose the matter to the media.

It wasn’t a big deal if he was humiliated.

However, what mattered was that he was an employee of Guerra Group, and he was closely tied to Josiah.

If the matter were to be exposed, it would undeniably deal another heavy blow to the corporate image and stock price of Guerra Group.

Upon hearing this, Josiah could only furrow his brows. “Why doesn’t he learn from his mistakes?”

“This time, it was a bit different from the last.”

“What’s the difference?”

“The number of people involved. This time… there were two girls.” Carol found it difficult to articulate. “According to Leo, he saw them at the school gate on a rainy day without umbrellas. Being kind–hearted, he offered them a ride home, and then…

Josiah sniggered. “Was he driving my car?”

“Mmm–hmm.”

“Did they do it in the car or a hotel?”

“In the car.”

Josiah was seething with rage, “Sell the car immediately.”

Carol, a woman herself, found it difficult to explain the matter explicitly. All she could say was, “What matters is that the two girls are underage, which makes it a crime.”

Josiah felt a buzzing in his head.

“Mr. Guerra, what should we do?”

“Make a police report.”

“Leo would have to go to prison…”

“He should have locked up a long time ago,” said Josiah. “Something has come up at home, and I’ll need you to take charge of the company for a while. If there’s anything you’re unsure about, don’t hesitate to call me.”

“Understood.”

After he hung up the phone, Susan asked, “Company matters?”

Josiah massaged his forehead wearily. “Mmm–hmm.

“If you’re busy with work, you should go ahead. I’ll be fine with Eleanor taking care of me

Josiah put away his phone, shaking his head. “Right now, my priority is to take care of you and to handle Grandma’s funeral. Nothing else matters.”
