Chapter 352 Even Breathing Is Wrong

Lysander was intently listening.

He paused for quite a while, then suddenly chuckled. “I have no idea.”

At that point, Lysander was starting to lose her temper.

How could he not know A full–grown man had entered Guerra Group’s underground parking and, up until now, even the police couldn’t find him.

Who else in Harborbrook had the ability to make someone disappear like that other than him?

Lysander typed: If you don’t know, then forget about it.

Josiah said. “I thought you would ask a few more questions.”

Lysander: Is there a point in me asking?

“Sure. If you talk a bit more with me, who knows. I might even end up helping you look into it.”

Lysander shook her head.

Lysander: Since you claim ignorance, then so be it. I don’t wish to bother with this any further

Josiah’s expression was unreadable, betraying no emotion. “Are you afraid that I might have done something to Harry?”

Lysander fell silent for a moment before answering: This matter concerns the Everhart family. Since Harry has done something wrong, the law will punish him.

Josiah immediately understood. “Daphne’s father sought you out, didn’t he? He’s afraid that if anything happens to Harry, the Everhart family will get caught in the crossfire.”

Lysander: Harry took me away from the Everhart residence, so Mr. Everhart’s worries are justified. Moreover, Daphne is also a victim when it comes to Harry

“Lysander,” Josiah uttered earnestly, “you can’t always be thinking about others. Can’t you consider things from your own perspective for once? It was you Harry kidnapped, and it’s you who, till this day, still cannot speak because of him. Don’t you want to seek revenge and make him pay?”

Lysander furrowed her brows and replied: Of course I want to, but I hope it’s through legal means.

“Legal?” Josiah scoffed. “The law is always a step behind. Harry ruined Daphne’s life, then wrecked Priscilla’s, yet that doesn’t break any laws. Even though he attempted to kidnap you, he failed in the end. There are things the law simply can’t preside over.”

Lysander: And who do you think you are to handle this on your own? Some kind of deity? Are you going to manage things even the law can’t handle?

Josiah’s expression abruptly turned icy. “Are you blaming me?

in the silence. Josiah watched from the corner of his eye as each word she wanted to say materialized on the screen, one by one.

“Lysander, I suddenly feel as if no matter what I do, it seems wrong in your eyes.”

When he received no response, he went on, “Liking you is wrong: wanting to see you is wrong; coming to see you is wrong; wanting to help you is wrong… Even me breathing is wrong.”

Lysander avoided his gaze, turning her head to look at the corridor’s lights instead.

Am I really such a despicable person?” The weight in Josiah’s voice intensified. “Sometimes, I feel that the fact you still resist me and harbor such hatred for me might suggest that I still hold a place in your heart. After all, we were husband and wife for three years. I was your first man. You-”

Suddenly, Lysander spun around, her gaze burning into him intensely.

With a sigh. Josiah crossed his hands over his legs. “I too, was deeply hurt by the loss of our child. But we can’t forever drown in our sorrow. When you went to terminate the pregnancy, I had no knowledge of the child’s existence. You once asked me if I would still choose Lysanne if you told me you were pregnant then. I can tell you with certainty now that I wouldn’t have. Had I known back then that you were carrying our child, no person or circumstance would have ever driven me away. I would have stayed by your side, living a good life with you and our child.”

Lysander neatly wrote down her words and turned it around for him to see: You only dislike Lysanne now because of what happened to Grandma Elisa. You’re answering past questions with your present state of mind. This is a temporal discrepancy, not your original answer.
