Chapter 435 The Crucial Issue Circles Back To Josiah

After all the twists and turns, the crux of the maiter still circled back to Josiah.

*All right. I’ll go and find him,” Lysander said. Time was of the essence, and she really couldn’t afford toexplain why she needed the money.

Howard was busy transferring money to her. He didn’t ask many questions, only advising, “Iunderstand. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, you wouldn’t ask me for this. I’ll transfer three million toyou first. Go and get a signature from Josiah. He shouldn’t make a fuss about it.”

Feeling moved, Lysander replied, “Okay”

The three million was already secured, and all that was left was to get Josiah’s signature.

Lysander didn’t dare to waste a moment, immediately dialing Josiah’s number again. The callconnected, but it was his secretary, Carol, who answered. “Ms. Thomme, Mr. Guerra is currently in ameeting. If you have any matters to discuss, you can tell me first. Once the meeting is over, I willdefinitely relay the message to him.”.

“I’m in a bit of a rush.” Lysander quickly explained, “I just need his signature. Could you perhaps brieflydisturb him for me?”

While glancing at her watch, Lysander spoke urgently.

Thirty minutes had already dwindled down to just ten. She hailed a cab to Guerra Group, and then fromthere, she rushed to Thorne Constructions and Energies to collect money from the finance department.Time was of the essence.

Luckily, Carol agreed to help. “Okay, I’ll go and speak to Mr. Guerra right away. Please wait for myupdate.”

Not long after the call ended, her phone rang again.

Anxiously, Lysander asked, “Did he agree?”

“Mr. Guerra has agreed,” Carol relayed Josiah’s response in a courteous manner.

At last, Lysander’s anxious heart had somewhat eased.

“He stated that the company is originally the Thorne family’s property, and the money naturallybelonged to the Thorne family members. He was merely helping to manage it, and as long as Mr.Thorne agreed, he had no objections. However, he’s now no longer associated with you, Ms. Thorne,and this is the perfect opportunity to return the management rights of the company. He would notinterfere with it in the future.

It seemed like Josiah was determined to completely sever ties with her.

Lysander had no experience managing a company, so the sudden news left her somewhat distressed.However, Everhart Corporation was still waiting for this money to resolve their issues. She had no otherchoice but to say, “All right. Could you please relay a message to him that I’ve agreed?”

Keeping Josiah’s instructions/in mind, Carol didn’t leave her waiting for news. Instead, she said, “If it’snot too much trouble, could you please make your way to Guerra Group as soon as possible tocomplete the necessary procedures?” /

“I’m heading over now.” Lysander had no other choice.

The money Howard had promised her arrived promptly. She immediately transferred the three millioninto Daphne’s account before returning to her lawyer. “I’ve managed to gather three million. You can trytransferring it through the bank system first. I’ll need to make another trip to get the rest. Please wait for

me.”

With this amount of money, it shouldn’t be hard to buy some more time?

The lawyer promptly signaled the bank employee behind him to make an attempt.

The other party confirmed the payment had been received over the phone. “It’s true. EverhartCorporation’s outstanding debt is now only twelve million.”

When the lawyer heard this, his attitude toward Lysander became significantly gentler than before. “Wecan hold off suing Everhart Corporation’s legal representative for now, but the extension can only lastuntil the bank closes. I hope you can make it quick.

Lysander left Everhart Corporation much faster than when she had arrived.

There were less than two hours left before the bank closed. It was enough time to get there and back,but no one knew how long the procedures would take or if Josiah would indeed be as agreeable as heseemed

this time.

When Lysander arrived at the CEO’s office in Guerra Group, Carol and the company’s legaldepartment had already prepared the necessary documents and were waiting for her.

In the vast office, Josiah was nowhere to be seen.

Lysander looked around, puzzled, and asked, “Has Josiah’s meeting not ended yet?”

Carol had always been kind to her, and this time was no different. She patiently explained, “Ms.Thorne, I’m sorry, but Mr. Guerra left for the airport as soon as the meeting was over. He had to go onan overseas business trip today. This was a prearranged schedule.”

It was clear that he had no intention of seeing her.

However, Lysander had no intention of exposing the truth, nor did she plan to probe further. Afteradjusting her somewhat hurried breathing, she nodded and said, “All right. I understand. What aboutthe paperwork?”

Carol showed Lysander the documents that Josiah had signed before his departure, then led her to thelegal department.

The Guerra Group’s legal team had already liaised with the Thorne family’s legal advisor. At this point,all contractual procedures were in order, and only a final document was needed to sever the tiesbetween the two companies..

Carol reminded Lysander, “Ms. Thorne, you can take your time to read through. If there are any areasof concern, we can still make changes now.”

Once the signature was placed, the contract would legally come into effect. From that point on, even ifregret surfaced, there would be no turning back.

“Thanks for your concern, but it’s unnecessary. I do think Josiah would stoop s

low as to set a trap for

me in this contract”

Lysander flipped directly to the last page of the contract, and without any hesitation, she signed hername. Then, she handed one of the two copies of the contract back to Carol

Carol carefully put away the contract and then personally escorted Lysander out of the building. Seeingher about to hail a cab, she didn’t forget to offer, “Let me have my driver take you home.”

No need. I need to go somewhere else,” Lysander gently declined. She then hurried to the nearestbank and promptly transferred twelve million from the company’s account to the Everhart family’saccount.

After all was said and done, she finally had a chance to catch her breath. She sat down in the bank’slounge area and let out a long sigh.

When Daphne called, Lysander had just stepped out of the bank. She expressed her frustration,“Finally, you remembered to return my call. Do you have any idea how worried I’ve been?”

Her response was met with Daphne’s choked sob.

Anxiety immediately surged in Lysander’s heart, “What’s wrong? Why are you crying?

On the other end of the line, Daphne sobbed as she explained, “Lysander, thank you. I’ve received themoney and the bank’s notification. Not only is my dad spared from prison, but our company is alsosaved. I just don’t know how to express my gratitude…”

It turned out that she was crying tears of joy,

Lysander let out a sigh of relief. “I’m glad you’re okay. You almost scared me to death. Now, stopcrying. We’ve resolved the issue at hand, but we still have a lot of work ahead of us.”

Daphne managed to stifle her sobs. “Okay. Lysander, did you get this money from Josiah…”
