“Jose...” Tiffany was about to argue further, but then she saw that Josiah had already packed the baby essentials, even pushingthe baby stroller along with it.
With an emotionless gaze, Josiah looked at Tiffany and said, “So, you insist on staying at the hotel, don’t you?”
Dillon, protecting his daughter, said, “We are also customers. Since the hotel is open for business and I’ve brought Tiff with me,surely, Mr. Guerra, you can’t refuse our accommodation, right?”
Without saying much, Josiah turned around and instructed the service. staff, “Hold the child carefully and follow me.”Upon seeing Josiah preparing to leave, Dillon couldn't help but ask with a hint of unwillingness, “Mr. Guerra, are you leaving?”
Josiah was indifferent, uttering only a single sentence: “If you like it here, stay for a few more days. Just don’t bother meanymore.”
For a period following that, he was unlikely to return.Josiah turned and walked out the door.
The service staff worked diligently, not asking a single unnecessary question. When the boss asked her to follow, she simplypushed the baby stroller and obeyed.

Upon hearing the sound, Molly, on the bed, turned her head to look at Josiah. She smiled gently at him. Her complexion was abit more rosy compared to the last time they met as she sat propped up against the bed’s headboard.
Josiah looked around, noticing no signs of recent visitors. He politely. greeted them and said, “It’s been a while since | last visitedyou, Mrs. Thorne. It seems like you're recovering well. Mr. Thorne has taken good care of you.”
Molly’s smile widened a bit, yet her eyes couldn't help but dart past like she was searching for someone.him
Howard also asked, “Josiah, didn’t Lysa come with you? And this child-”
“A friend asked me to look after the child for a while.”
Howard patted his chest. “You gave me a scare.”
Josiah chuckled. “Are you allowed to eat apples now, Mrs. Thorne?”
Howard answered on Molly’s behalf, “The doctor just left and said she could try eating a little, but not too much. Ever since Lysareturned, Molly has been recovering well. Look, she can now sit up for a while and
sometimes even manage to eat some simple foods on her own. Maybe in a little while, we could even go back home.”When he spoke of his wife then, he no longer carried the same worry as before. A faint smile graced his face.
With some effort, Molly said, “Staying in the hospital for too long can be quite draining. After all, there’s no place like home.Howard is getting older, and he doesn’t rest well in the hospital.”

state.
Once Howard had finished slicing the apple into small pieces and placed them next to Molly, he finally remembered to inviteJosiah to sit down. “Josiah, I’m sure you came to see me today for a reason. Please, take a seat, and we can talk at your ownpace.”
“All right.”
Despite his best efforts to hide it, the injury on Josiah’s face was impossible. to conceal. Noticing this, Howard asked with a hintof concern, “That wound looks pretty serious. Did you run into some trouble? Is it related to Lysa?”
“No. | was at fault. | got what | deserved.”
Howard furrowed his brows. “What on earth happened?”
Josiah roughly recounted the events that had transpired in the hotel that day to Howard.
Howard sighed with a hint of melancholy. “The truth can’t be concealed forever. Now that this matter has been exposed, it’s
better to endure short- term pain than long-term suffering. No matter what decision Lysa makes in the future, we have to respect

said.
Howard and Molly looked at him, puzzled.
“Lysander also has a sister who has been in a car accident not too long ago. She, too, is being treated here.”Howard nodded, “I see. You’re hoping that | can step in and have a good talk with Lysa’s adoptive parents, right?”
Josiah said, “Lysander grew up with them. The couple treats her as their own daughter. Knowing about this, they must have felt asense of loss. Lysander is very respectful. She must be feeling quite upset as well.”
“| understand.” Howard inquired, “How is Lysa’s sister? Was the car accident severe?”
Josiah shared what he knew. “She’s fine now. If things go smoothly, she could be discharged from the hospital in a couple ofdays.”
With a sense of relief, Howard said, “That's good. The poor young girl must be finding it hard to be in the hospital. Since Mollycan’t travel far, let's meet Lysa’s foster parents together, and then we can decide on our next steps based on their attitudes.”
“All right.”
As Howard spoke, his gaze fell onto the baby stroller. “Is this your friend’s child?
“Correct.”
Howard quickly suggested, “Let’s leave the child here. Since you’ve also brought someone to look after her, that’ll work.”
Maverick had a quick temper, and it was uncertain whether he could keep the situation under control. It seemed better to havethe child stay there
