Josiah was fully aware that he was at fault. Indeed, he bore the full responsibility for that incident.

He awkwardly touched his nose and said, “The reward…”

He then gently stroked the kitten’s head, his voice softening considerably. “Could I have the opportunity to care for the little feline? For example, help it clean its litter box. That wouldn’t be too much to ask, would it?

Indeed, it wasn’t unreasonable, but Lysander still couldn’t agree, rejecting it outright and without hesitation.

“I won’t consider it. You’ve just taught me that the most important thing in managing a company is to separate public and private matters. We should never let personal feelings interfere with our work. Now, you’re helping me plan my work and fit into Thorne Constructions and Energies, which is a professional matter. However, my home is my personal space. After work, I still want to be on my own.”

The image of Adrian helping Lysander walk the dog surfaced in Josiah’s mind, causing a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth. Someone did that before and failed. I don’t think I should do the same.

It wasn’t that kittens and puppies weren’t adorable enough, but her vigilance was simply too high, leaving no room for any slip–ups.

Lysander noticed he had fallen silent, and she couldn’t resist adding another comment to completely quash any remaining objections. “Besides, it only takes a few minutes to clean up the cat litter. I could easily do it while I’m pouring a glass of water. I did some research. Take a look at this.”

Lysander handed over her phone for him to see.

On a certain orange–colored app, the product listed was an automatic, no–scoop cat litter box.

“Technology changes life,” Lysander said.

Josiah didn’t say anything in response.

The petite Ragdoll kitten had been playing on him for just a short while before it grew tired. Upon hearing Lysander mention that she was going to buy something for it, the cat immediately hopped down from the couch cover onto the floor and swiftly made its way to Lysander’s feet.

Meow!

The kitten’s mew was soft and endearing, tugging at Lysander’s heartstrings. Without hesitation, she bent down and scooped it onto her lap. One hand continued to stroke its smooth fur while the other kept flipping through the documents, jotting down notes and sketching. She managed to do both without any

hindrance.

Josiah, on the other hand, sat empty–handed on the couch behind her. With nothing else to do, he resorted to opening his laptop and began dealing with the emails in his work inbox.

Carol had already returned from her trip abroad, compiling the situation into a report for him. He read it with an impassive face, his gaze not wavering even slightly. This matter is finally completely resolved.

She noticed the incoming call was from Lynn and casually answered it.

Upon hearing the sound of a phone call, Josiah immediately shifted his gaze from the screen, his ears perking up at attention.

Lysander was oblivious to the subtle changes happening behind her, cheerfully chatting with Lynn. “What made you think of calling me? Has it been less busy in your department recently?”

Lynn heaved a sigh on the other end of the line. “How could I not be busy? I’m swamped, Dr. Thorne. Due to my hectic schedule, I had to squeeze out some time to call you.”

“Why do you make it sound like you’re in jail?” Lysander lightened up considerably as they started. discussing the events at the hospital. “Go ahead. What’s up?”

Josiah’s expression relaxed when he saw that the call she was taking was from Lynn. He simply stared at her, lost in thought, his gaze filled with a hint of longing. It’s been a while since I’ve seen her so happy.

Watching her lips curve into a slight smile, Josiah felt his heart fluttering along with it.

As it turns out, caring for the right person can be so wonderful. Caring for the wrong person, on the other hand…. Josiah restrained his emotions. For the rest of her life, she’ll return to live the life that was originally hers. Lysander and Lysanne are back to where they’re supposed to be.

Meanwhile, Lynn was incessantly sighing. “I’ve really run into some trouble. I encountered a patient today who claimed to have come specifically for our hospital’s renowned obstetrics and gynecology department. The moment I heard this, I was immediately filled with a great deal of enthusiasm. But now that the examination results are out, I’m completely dumbfounded.”

Back when Lysander was still at Central Hospital, the reputation of her department had always been on the rise. This standing only grew stronger as several healed patients spread the word, turning the department into the final beacon of hope for many. Hence, even after she resigned and left, her influence lingered in the industry.

It was said that some patients from outlying regions would even make a special trip to Harborbrook. They believed that if their condition couldn’t be treated there, they would completely give up hope.

Seeing Lynn, who was usually so optimistic, in such a state of distress, Lysander knew she was facing a major problem. Hence, Lysander quickly offered words of comfort by saying, “What exactly is troubling you so much?”

Lynn had found someone she could trust implicitly. With her noticeably more relaxed voice, she asked, “Dr. Thorne, are you free at the moment? Could you spare some time to discuss the patient’s condition?”

“I’m free. Go ahead,” she said.

“The patient came in the morning/claiming she was engaged and wanted to undergo a thorough medical. examination before her wedding. However, she was evasive about why her fiancé wasn’t with her. I sensed something was off but didn’t think much of it. I simply instructed her to collect her report in the afternoon, as per our usual procedure.”

It seemed that the issue most likely stemmed from the results of the examination.

Lysander didn’t dwell on it much, simply asking, “Is there an issue with the report?”

“Send it over for me to take a look.

“Don’t hang up just yet. I’m going to send you a screenshot from my computer right now.” Upon hearing Lysander’s willingness to help, Lynn perked up and immediately sent her the color Doppler ultrasound

film and hormone test results.

Lynn held her phone, barely daring to breathe, waiting for Lysander to save her from the crisis. “Dr. Thome, take a look. Can this be treated?” she asked.

Lysander pondered for a moment, having already discerned the crux of the matter. “The patient’s hormone levels seem to be fine, but there’s something peculiar about this film. Is this what you were unsure about just:

“That’s right!” Lynn exclaimed emotionally. “Dr. Thorne, you need to take a look quickly. I’m truly afraid I might tarnish our department’s reputation!”

Even after all this time, whenever she discussed hospital matters with Lysander, she subconsciously treated her as one of her own.

Lysander was deeply moved.

After closely examining the film, Lysander understood what was going on.

“There’s no point in you showing me this patient. She has congenital uterine hypoplasia. It’s highly unlikely that a treatment could improve her condition.” Lysander heaved a sigh and added, “Given your expertise, you should understand this as well.”

“That’s true, but the girl is still so young, and she holds such high hopes for marriage. Whenever she spoke of her fiancé, her eyes would light up. I just couldn’t bear it. I really thought I could help her.”

Lysander advised her, “I understand how you feel, but there’s nothing we can do about it. Try to comfort her, okay?”

Upon hearing this, Lynn let out a sigh on behalf of the patient. “It’s true that nothing good comes when. faced with complex illnesses. When that young girl comes to collect the report this afternoon, I really don’t know how to break this bad news to her.”

In such a situation, there was no need for any treatment.

Lysander was almost a mother herself, so it was inevitable that she would feel a strong sense of empathy in such matters. With a hint of regret, she asked, “You just mentioned that the patient came for a pre–marital check–up. Does that mean she’s planning to have a child soon?”

Lynn thought about it and answered, “I believe so. Based on her words, her fiancé is much older than her, no longer in his prime, hence the urgency for children.”
