    Chapter 398 The Irrelevant Ones


    The entire room fell into a profound silence.


    Josiah reached out and pulled her phone away, immediately ending the call. Then, he swiftly added.


    Lysanne’s number to the cklist.


    When he returned her phone, he softly said, “Don’t answer calls from irrelevant people in the future.”


    Irrelevant people?


    Lysander couldn’t help butment. Toute heartless.”


    Josiah’s expression remained unchanged. “In my life, there’s nothing I despise more than deceit.”


    Josiah didn’t stay for long.


    After he left, Lysander quickly grabbed a bite to eat, then plunged straight into a deep, sweet slumber.


    When she woke up, the room was shrouded in darkness. ncing at the time on her phone, she


    realized it was already past three in the morning.

    The setting was simple in the mountainous region, with only a serene valley visible through the


    enormous floor–to–ceiling window.


    Unlike in the city, where no matter what time you woke up at night, there would always be lights outside


    as soon as you drew the curtains. It was indeed convenient, but it always left one feeling somewhat


    restless.


    It wasn’t like this ce.


    The silence was so profound. It stilled her heartpletely.


    She pushed open the window and positioned herself on the terrace overlooking the valley. The air was


    somewhat damp, and it was only then that she noticed the gentle drizzle falling outside.


    The scent of flowers and fresh soil dominated the air, subtly intertwined with a faint whiff of smoke.


    In the darkness, his voice echoed from not too far off, next door.


    I’ve already dealt with these documents. Take a look at them and inform the various departments to


    execute the orders outlined within. Let’s reschedule the conference call. Yes, anytime after one in the


    morning tomorrow. Right, when you have a moment, could you pick out aptop and a cell phone


    suitable for a university student? Michelle is about to start school. See if she needs anything else and


    help her get it. Yes, just tell her you’re a friend of her sister’s. Alright, let’s leave it at that for now. If


    anythinges up, get in touch with me. Try to text instead of calling. I’ll respond when I see it.”


    This phone callsted for over half an hour.


    asionally, she could hear his faint cough. She wasn’t sure whether it was due to the chilling cold of


    the mountains or the continuous chain of cigarettes he was smoking.


    After standing outside for a while, Lysander began to feel the chill and sneezed.

    Lysander acknowledged with a hum..


    “Why are you still awake at thiste hour?”


    “I woke up.”

    Josiah hastily extinguished his cigarette, turning his head to take several deep breaths as if attempting


    to clear out the lingering scent of smoke from his lungs.


    “It’s cold outside,” he said, “Did I wake you up?”


    Lysander shook her head. “No, the soundproofing is excellent. I couldn’t hear your voice at all from


    inside


    the room.”


    “Why couldn’t you sleep, then? Are you worried about Mrs. Thorne?”


    Lysander responded, “It’s probably due to my previous habit of working the night shift. After every night


    shift, I would always have to take on a morning shift next. I had to start rounds at six thirty in the


    morning. Taking into ount the time for breakfast andmuting. I had to get up at five o’clock.”


    Josiah nced at the watch on his wrist. “It’s still two hours until five o’clock. You can get some more


    sleep.”


    “What about you?”


    “What?”


    “I have a question for you,” Lysander began, “Lately, you’ve been shuttling back and forth between here


    and Stounia, not to mention the hospital matters… Do you usually deal withpany affairs at night?”


    Josiah paused for a moment, somewhat doubtful if she was showing concern for him, yet he felt it was


    unlikely.


    He said, “I haven’t been too busy. Ms. Collins is very capable. I’ve decided to promote her to deputy


    CEO next month. She’s already proven that she can handle many of thepany’s affairs on her own.”


    Lysander nodded.


    As he was speaking, thendline in his room began to ring.


    Lysander arched an eyebrow, to which Josiah promptly rified, “It’s not Lysanne. It’s the room service


    I just called for.”
