Lysander stood up and said. “I’ll go and handle the hospitalization procedures. By the way, your ssmate will inform your homeroom teacher of the situation here. Your family wille to keep youpany once they’re notified.”
Joseph abruptly sat up, his legs instinctively touching the ground. “Then, will you being again, Ms.
Thome?”
Lysander shook her head. “Probably not.”
Without a backward nce, she walked away. Afterpleting the necessary procedures, she exited through the doors of the registration hall on the first floor.
As soon as she stepped out, she saw <b>Josiah </b>waiting there in a fit
Lysander continued walking straight ahead while Josiah straightened up and asked, “Is that brat any better?”
Lysander halted in her tracks. “There’s no way he would heal <b>that </b>quickly when his wounds have just been bandaged.”
At her detached demeanor and silence on the subject, Josiah said, “I truly didn’t do it on purpose.”
Lysander nodded. “I understand. It’s normal to have some bumps and bruises on the court. What I don’t quite get is this. You’re over a decade older than him, so why were you <b>so </b>serious with a kid? He’s at <b>an </b>age where he’s full of energy, but you’re-
Josiah’s gaze shot up. “You think I’m old?”
“No. What I meant is that you’re already a mature man. Besides, you’ve always been very cautious and prudent in your actions. Why did you suddenly join the basketballpetition today and even…”
Lysander trailed off as a possibility suddenly urred to her.
It couldn’t have been intentional on his part, right?
Following that thought, she found her emotions ratherplex.
Even though Josiah imed he was satisfied with maintaining the status <b>quo</b>, everything that transpired in the past few days made it clear that he was far from content with things remaining as they were.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Admittedly, Lysander was somewhat slow in that regard. However, she wasn’t so oblivious as to be entirely. clueless about everything.
But precisely because of that, she felt incredibly agitated.
“Lysander, do you think I was purposely targeting him<b>?</b>”
Lysander turned her face away/“No.”
“I was indeed targeting him.7
Lysander was at a loss for words. “You’re already in your thirties. Don’t you think this <b>is </b>childish?”

Josiah said. “I heard everything you said during your speech. Don’t <b>assume </b>he’s innocent just because he’s young. High school students these days are not like us back then. They understand everything. He might <b>have </b>even had several girlfriends by now. And do you have any idea about the kind of sexual fantasies boys his age have?”
Being a man himself, he understood all too well what Joseph was thinking.
Lysander couldn’t help recalling her high school days, where the most heinous individuals were merely Harry <b>and </b><b>Zachary</b>.
She didn’t quite understand. “He wants to use me? But I wouldn’t be of any help to him.”
With a <b>look </b>of frustration, Josiah said, “I’m starting to sympathize with Adrian. You’re downright dense!”
Lysander said nothing.
Josiah’s Adam’s apple bobbed, a mix of frustration and hesitation evident in his voice. “Wait a moment. I’lI show you something.”
“What is it?”
“Just wait a moment.”
As Josiah spoke, he seemingly went to his WhatsApp and sent a message to someone.
Soon, he received a picture sent from the other person.
Josiah tapped open the image and snickered, then handed his phone to her. “See for yourself.”
Lysander took the phone dubiously. On the screen, Josiah <b>had </b>already maximized the picture<b>. </b>It featured <b>a </b>young woman in a white blouse, a ck suit<b>, </b>and ck high heels.
Hmm, she has a great figure. Her shirt is almost bursting at the seams.
“Look at her, then look at yourself.”
Lysander nced down at her own attire. “I see the resemnce, but I’m not wearing ck stockings. Nor am I sporting ck–rimmed sses.”
“Look at the words above.”
“It’s in a foreignnguage, and I can’t understand it.” Lysander looked up and asked Josiah, “You even know a <b>foreign </bnguage?”
At her words, Josiah’s expression turned somewhat peculiar. “I only know a few words<b>.</b>”
“How many is a few?”
“A couple.”
“Words like <b>no</b>, idiot, and how cute?”
“Those
know would be censored in written form.”
I vander was struck dumb.

However, once she understood Josiah’s meaning, her feelings when she again looked at the picture on the screen changed significantly.
There was a string of foreignnguage characters, but though she couldn’t understand them, certain words. bore a resemnce to Ecronese.
For instance, female teacher, senior, <b>and </b>male student.
Buck!
The phone vibrated once more in her hand.
Lysander handed the phone back to Josiah. “You’ve got a message.”
Josiah didn’t take it. “Tap on it.”
Lysander closed the picture and returned to WhatsApp’s interface, only to see a newly sent video in the chat box under that image.
The thumbnail was identical to the picture above.
A foreboding feeling welled within Lysander.
Before she realized it, Josiah had reached out. He first turned the volume down to its lowest before ying the video.
In the next second, Lysander almost threw his phone <b>away</b>.
She quickly tossed the phone back to him and barked lowly, “What on earth is this?”
“This is what goes on in the minds of those hormone–ridden high school boys.”
Lysander’s face turned slightly red. A sense of panic washed over her, <b>and </b>she found herself unable to utter <b>a </b>single word.
Josiah put his phone away. “You probably think I’m again lumping everyone together, but it doesn’t matter. That brat is no saint. Just <b>wait </b>and see if you don’t believe me.”
Lysander swiftly walked away.
Josiah quickly went after her. “Where are you going?”
“I’m heading home.” Lysander announced, raising her hand to hail a taxi.
“I’ll drive <b>you </b>home,” Josiah said, leaving no room for refusal.
Right <b>then</b><b>, </b>her mind <b>was </bpletely consumed by that scandalous video earlier.
Hearing about it was one thing, <b>but </b>seeing it was another.
That went doubly when she saw it right in front of him.

Amidst their conversation, they spotted Daphne hastily rushing toward the hospital’s main entrance.
Daphne ran over, grabbing Lysander to stand between her and Josiah, saying, “I was just a bit slow at the basketball court, but I didn’t expect a moment’s dawdling would lead to even more hold–ups. But I finally found you. How’s Joseph? His injuries aren’t serious, are they?”
Josiah’s face was as ck as thunder. He interjected coldly, “There’s no bone fracture. It’s just a scratch. Do you all really need to make such a fuss?”
“Mr. Guerra, why do you sound so resentful? It’s as though you’re a concubine who has fallen out of favor,” Daphne teased.
Words cluded Josiah.
Ignoring his words, Lysander calmly reassured Daphne, <b>“</b>It’s nothing serious. He only needs to stay a few days in the hospital for observation.”
Daphne heaved a sigh of relief. “Phew, that’s good. It would be a shame if such a handsome young man were crippled.”
“He’s still in the hospital. Do you want to go and visit him?”
After giving it some thought, Daphne waved her hand dismissively. “No, it’s okay. Just a look was enough for me. There’s still a pile of work at the office, and I need to get back.”
“Will you be taking the bus again?”
Upon hearing that, Josiah interjected, “Hop in. We’ll pass by her office anyway, so we might as well give her a lift.”
Daphne smacked her lips and turned her gaze to Lysander, waiting for thetter to decide.
