    Chapter 317 He Got Injured


    Josiah seemed surprised to see Howard and Molly there. He stood up and greeted them, “Mr. and


    Mrs.


    Thorne.”


    Molly smiled perfunctorily, her attention fully on Lysander. Her smile was slightly ingratiating as she-


    reached out to hold Lysander’s hand. “Why are you dressed in such thin clothes? You should have


    brought a coat.”


    Howard immediately took off his suit jacket. “Wear mine.”


    Seeing their eager expressions and the warm suit jacket being handed to her, Lysander didn’t


    ept it.


    Josiah raised an eyebrow slightly. “Mr. and Mrs. Thorne, do you know Lysander well?”


    “We….”


    “They’re hoping I can forgive Lysanne,” Lysander said. “They’re here to apologize on her behalf.”


    Howardughed awkwardly and agreed, “Yes, yes, Lysanne made some mistakes before. We want


    to make amends for her.”


    Josiah’s expression turned slightly cold. He stepped forward, blocking Lysander, and pushed


    Howard’s hand with the jacket aside. In a chilly tone, he said, “I’ve made it very clear regarding


    Lysanne. Out of respect for old acquaintances, I won’t pursue it further, but that’s all. Please don’t


    harass Lysander anymore.”


    The word “harass” was a bit strong to use in this context.


    Molly felt a sting in her heart and forced a smile. “Were not harassing her. We’re just hoping to…”


    “No need,” Josiah interrupted. “Lysander has nothing to do with either of our families anymore. She


    was the biggest victim in this matter. Please don’t disturb her.”


    “But Josiah, we’re also trying to help you…”


    “You needn’t trouble yourselves with this. We are perfectly capable of handling our own affairs.”


    Molly was taken aback by Josiah’s sudden cold attitude.


    Regaining hisposure quickly, Howard didn’t seem hurt but rather relieved. “Fine, then you


    handle your own affairs. Don’t worry, we won’t interfere.”


    Josiah’s expression finally softened a bit.


    Lysander attempted to ease the tension. “How’s Ms. Lysanne’s injury?”


    Howard replied, “The external injuries have mostly healed, and the rest will recover slowly. But she


    seems truly frightened. She is scared of everything she sees…”

    Josiah sneered. “There’s nothing to fear if you have a clear conscience.”


    Lysander asked. “Have you consulted a psychiatrist?”


    “We have, but there’s no definitive conclusion yet. The doctor said to keep her calm and avoid


    stimting her. We’ll have to see if she improves over time.”


    Lysander nodded. “The psychiatric department at Central Hospital is excellent. Follow the doctor’s


    advice.


    “Sure, sure.”


    Molly suddenly remembered and asked. “Josiah, I heard you got injured a few days ago. Is it


    serious?”


    Josiah cleared his throat and tried to soundposed. “I’m fine. It’s not serious.”


    “Where did you get hurt? I asked your mother, but she didn’t know either because you wouldn’t tell


    her.”


    “Just a minor injury.”


    “Where are you hurt?”


    “My leg.”


    “Does it affect your walking?”


    “It doesn’t.”


    “Oh, if it doesn’t affect walking, it shouldn’t be too serious. Your mother is very worried about you. In


    the future, if you feel unwell, let your elders know so they won’t worry.”


    Josiah responded with a very soft “Mm.”
