Chapter 479 Are You Hurt
“It hurts!”
He stopped.
Lysander eximed, “I need to drink water now! I’m dying of thirst!”
Josialt seemed to hesitate for a moment, as if weighing his options.
Then, he graciously decided to let her off the hook. “I’ll go heat up some water.”
Lysander wasn’t all that knowledgeable in andrology.
However…
Is it really okay to end things so abruptly?
She had assumed she would at least have to wait until this round was over, yet he left just like
that?
Josiah picked up the bathrobe she had worn the previous day from the floor and draped it over
himself, then turned on the light.
The water had already been poured into the kettle the night before, so it was ready for use. He
simply plugged it in, then walked over to draw the curtains.
The sunlight streamed in suddenly, causing Lysander’s eyes to sting painfully. She closed her eyes
and turned her head away.
Josiah was not quite ustomed to the sudden brightness either. He squinted slightly as he walked
over, reaching out to lift her nket.
At that moment, Lysander couldn’t care less about her eyes. She quickly held the nket down and
asked, “What else do you n on doing?”
“Didn’t you just say it hurts? Let me check if it’s injured.”
“No need!”
Josiah said, “I’ve seen it so many times already, so what’s there to be afraid of?”
“If you’ve grown tired of seeing mine then go find someone new!”
“Someone else isn’t hurting, and even if they are, it wasn’t my doing. What am I supposed to look
at? Besides, I’ve never seen anyone else’s.”
Lysander still clung tightly to the nket. “I don’t believe that you haven’t done it with Lysanne
before.”
“She was pregnant at that time. Do you really think I’m a monster?”
“Well, I’m still sick!”
“Aren’t I treating you? Look, your fever has already subsided.”
Chapter 479 Are You Hurt
Josiah lightly chuckled. “But your fever has indeed subsided, hasn’t it? And your symptoms have
lessened. Can you honestly say I’m not treating you?”
“You’re merely twisting facts.”
“This is what I call judging by the oue,” he retorted.
“So, what you’re saying is, if Lysanne wasn’t pregnant, you’d still sleep with her, is that right?”
Josiah clicked his tongue. “Don’t regard me as such a desperate, lustful pervert. I’m quite picky, you
know.”
“The person you’ve loved for so many years was right in front of you, so I simply refuse to believe
it.”
“Back then, it was innocent love, dered Josiah. “If I were truly ruled by my desires, I wouldn’t
have waited all these years, enduring the teasing and mockery from Aiden and the others.”
Lysander still didn’t believe it. “If you’re so virtuous and self–disciplined, why didn’t I see you
continue to y the part of the upright gentleman after we got married?”
Josiah smacked his lips and replied. “I did n to, but then…”
“But then, what?”
Josiah unlocked his phone to check the time. “It’s already ten past six, and the summit starts at
eight. Considering the time it’ll take to shower, eat, andmute during Apex City’s morning rush
hour… maybe we should skip the shower? It would save some time.”
Lysander knew he didn’t want to continue the conversation.
However, not taking a shower was simply out of the question.
She had taken a shower before going to bedst night, but now, she was covered in his saliva.
He had taken her bathrobe, and the new one was still in the wardrobe. All she could do was clutch
her nket as she got out of bed.
The moment her feet touched the ground, her body felt as if it had been electrocuted. The intense
pain. was so overwhelming that she almost shed tears.
Luckily, the bed was right next to her. She didn’t end up in an embarrassing heap on the floor but
instead plopped back onto the bed.
Upon seeing the situation, Josiah slowly made his way over. “Do you need my help?”
Lysander pointed toward the wardrobe in the distance. “Could you fetch me a fresh bathrobe?”
“I can’t be bothered to go.
Lysander could only stare at him in bewilderment.
Josiah picked up his shirt from the ground and handed it to her. “Put this on first.”
Lysander didn’t ept the article of clothing.
“If you don’t want to wear it that’s fine with me tonlon’t really mind‘

Chapter 479 Are You Hurt
Lysander, vexed, snatched his shirt before draping it on herself. Then, she quickly darted off into the
bathroom with a light jog.
Fortunately, the room was equipped with a bathtub. After some contemtion, Lysander decided to
skip
breakfast.
I can just grab some bread or something to cat on the roadter. Taking a bath will at least help
soothe my aching body.
Knock, knock.
Outside the bathroom door was a familiar silhouette of a person.
With a hint of annoyance in her slightly hoarse voice, she asked, “What else do you need?”
“Nothing. I was just worried you might have fallen asleep in the bathtub,” said Josiah, a smirk
ying on his lips. He added, seemingly just to anger her. “And don’t forget your responsibilities.
You’re a neer, and beingte to your first summit will leave a bad impression.”
Lysander really wanted to fling the door open, turn on the shower, and drench the jerk, going down
together in a ze of glory. However, she was so worn out, her back and waist aching so much that
she didn’t even have the strength to lift her arms. All she could do was let out a resigned sigh.
Quickly, the sound of footsteps outside the bathroom faded away, followed by the sound of a door
closing.
Atst, Josiah had left.
Only then did Lysander let her guard down, sinking into the warm water in the mostfortable
position she could manage at the moment. After finally washing away the fatigue from her body, the
annoying ringing of her phone sounded again just as she wanted to take a short rest on the clean
sofa.
The person calling this time was Tiffany,
Suppressing the resentment that she initially intended to direct at Josiah, Lysander took a deep
breath and politely picked up the call, asking, “Ms. Lanister?”
“Lysa, did you… just wake up? Tiffany’s voice held a hint of hesitation.
Lysander questioned, “Is there something you need?”
Tiffany said, “Are youing down to the restaurant for breakfast? The chicken broth was a hit this
morning, so it’s almost all gone. If you’reing. I’ll set aside a bowl each for you and Jose.”
“Thanks, but I won’t being. I still have some matters to attend to. I’ll just grab something to eat
on the wayter.
“I see, all right then.”
“Um… Didn’t Josiah go out to have breakfast with you?”
“Jose mentioned that he went to the gymst night and had quite a workout, so he’s all sweaty. He’s
in the room taking a shower now.”
“Oh, I sec.”
“Ah. he’s here! lose, over here-

Chapter 479 Are You Hurt
The restaurant in the hotel was somewhat noisy, and Josial’s voice came faintly over the phone.
“Who are you on the phone with?”
Tiffany said, “I was just asking Lysa if she’sing down for breakfast.”
“She’s noting anymore.”
“Uh–huh, she told me that there are still some matters she needs to take care of.”
Josiah hummed in response.
“But Jose, how did you know that Lysa wouldn’te for breakfast?”
Josiah paused for a moment before saying, “She’s fallen ill, so surely she would want to sleep a bit
longer.”
“Right, that makes sense.” Tiffany told Lysander over the phone, “Lysa, why don’t you rest a bit
more? When you’re ready, you cane straight down. Jose and I will be waiting for you in the
lobby.”
“Okay.”
Lysander really wanted to give Josiah a piece of her mind.
After hastily ending the call, she immediately dialed Josiah’s number.
“Hello?”
His voice sounded somewhat cheerful.
Lysander felt an even stronger urge to hit him.
“Speak up.”

Lysander said, “You can’t treat Tiffany like this. You need to rify things with her as soon as
possible.”
Josiah made a sound of agreement, then called out, “Tiffany-”
Tiffany was by the buffet table, picking out some snacks when she heard the voice. She turned
around and asked, “What’s up, Jose?”
“Lysa asked me to tell you-
