Chapter 184 What On Earth Is Josiah Up To
“What’s going on? Is it really that serious?” Lysander inquired, noticing the concern etched deeply on
Laura’s face.
Laura began, “When your father and I returned a short while ago, we found a notice from the local
authorities downstairs. It mentioned that our building is scheduled for demolition.”
Surprised by the news, Lysander questioned, “When did they announce this?”
“They’re urging everyone to move out before Independence Day.”
Realizing it was already July, Lysander calcted the short time frame left, barely over two months until
the deadline in October.
“So suddenly? Wasn’t there any warning beforehand?” Lysander pressed further.
Maverick interjected, “There had been some whispers about it, but your mother and I didn’t really
believe them. Our apartment is a government–subsidized unit given by my workce. We figured if it
really came to demolition, thepensation wouldn’t be substantial…”
Understanding the situation, Lysander remainedposed and offered a solution, “Well, since I’m still
on break, I’ll start looking for a rental for us.”
Laura responded with a wry smile, “Finding a rental is one thing, but what about you and your sister?
We’ve always been hardworking, hoping that selling this house would someday help support you
financially, but now that’s not going to happen…”
“Don’t worry about it,” Lysander reassured her, “I’ll just need to save a little longer before I can afford a
house.. And as for Michelle, she’s only just started university. Who knows? Maybe she’ll be sessful
enough in the future to buy her own house and car.”
Maverick gave a smallugh. “I have no doubts you could achieve that on your own, but your sister…
well, she still acts quite immaturely. Remember how right after your college entrance exam, you were
already earning money tutoring, while she was still infatuated with her physics teacher?”
Dad, you
shouldn’t be so quick to judge her,” Lysander defended her sister. “I might be sessful, but she’s my
sister–she’s got potential too.”
“She’s not…”
“Maverick!” Laura sharply interrupted, pping him on the shoulder.
Maverick quickly corrected his tone, “Just as every offspring is unique, our daughters may have
inherited different qualities. Let’s not worry about this now. Once your break is over, you should head
back to work. You don’t want the hospital to rece you because you’ve been away too long. You have
a respectable and well–paying job; you should focus on that.”
Lysander nodded. “I understand, don’t worry.”
“Indeed, you’ve always been the reliable one, not causing us any worry, unlike Michelle,” Laura sighed.
Desiring to shift the conversation away from potential conflicts, Lysander asked, “Dad, what prompted
the sudden demolition notice? Our home is quite remote from the city center. Why would they want our
land?”
Maverick exined, “I spoke with Lance at the reception desk downstairs. He mentioned that a
company
ns to build an amusement nark on ournd”

Maverick exined, “I spoke with Lance at the reception desk downstairs. He mentioned that a

Lysander pondered this for a moment, recognizing the logic. Thend here is cheaper, and being far
from the city center, it’s perfect for something like an amusement park.
Maverick added, “And you know, when you came back, Mdm. Cam mentioned that Zach’s
architectural designpany is handling the construction.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, but they’re just responsible for the design work. They don’t make decisions about the demolition,”
Maverick rified.
Curious, Lysander asked, “Whichpany is listed on the announcement?”
“It was something like… “Walter Constructions? That sounds right.”
A sense of unease washed over Lysander. Thepany sounded rmingly familiar.
Though she hadn’t encountered him directly, she knew that her former father–inw’s name was WaltBelongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.
Guerra
Yet, it might have been that she was overthinking things.
Guerra Group’s business empire typically involved luxury residential developments and hotels, not
amusement parks.
Nevertheless, to confirm her suspicions, she pulled out her phone to check. And sure enough–Walter
Constructions, a subsidiary of Guerra Group, was involved.
With a chuckle, Lysander grabbed her phone and headed out.
From behind, Laura called out, “Lysander, where are you off to? Dinner’s almost ready.”
“I’m just going to make a quick phone call. Go ahead and start without me,” Lysander replied, stepping
out to gather her thoughts..
