Chapter 152 Threatening The Parents
Lysander had thought countless times about saying, “End the pregnancy, get a divorce, and start life anew.”
However, Priscilla loved her unborn child so deeply, and as her doctor, Lysander felt it was inappropriate for her to encourage an abortion repeatedly.
Additionally, there was the fact that Priscilla was still young, and she found herself pregnant shortly after graduation, even before getting married.
She had absolutely no work experience to speak of, but she had a decent job that paid well, so that gave her more than a little confidence.
Even though Priscilla’s father was a hospital director, deep down, she hadn’t yet fully transitioned from a little girl to a competent career woman. In the end, it was because her inner self wasn’t strong enough.
“Lysander, I truly admire you.” Priscilla confessed. “You’re so decisive and straightforward. When it’s time to divorce, you don’t hesitate or make things messy. However, my situation is different from yours. I already have a child. I can’t be as carefree as you.”
Lysander wasn’t sure what advice to give.
Perhaps the question was whether or not Lysander should persuade her.
“Then you… make sure to eat well, rest properly, and take good care of yourself. Even if it’s for the sake of the child, you can’t afford to lose any more weight.” All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Priscilla’s eyes were slightly teary. “Mm, thank you, Lysander.”
After leaving the ward, Lysander continued her rounds.
The other expecting mothers were faring well, although their gazes toward her held a hint of fear.
Lynn said, “It could be because of what happened at the hospital entrance yesterday. You were so formidable that everyone’s probably scared of you now.”
Lysander retorted, “If someone tries to ruin my reputation and livelihood, it would be strange if I didn’t fight back.”
Lynn deeply agreed with her, giving her a big thumb up.
As Lysander was making her way down the corridor, preparing to return to her office, she heard a familiar
voice once more,
She had a keen ear for voices. Just from hearing the first few words, she recognized it. It was the mother of Lysanne.
Molly pleaded, “Josiah, I’m begging you. Lyss has always had a strong sense of pride. This incident has become public knowledge. If you reject her now, she will lose her mind. Josiah, can you consider it as saving Lyss‘ life? I’ll beg you on my knees…”
Then, a thud was heard.
From the corner of her eye, Lysander saw the middle–aged woman who was originally seated in the wheelchair had fallen to the ground, sprawling on the floor. “Josiah… I beg you, I truly beg you…
Her husband, a towering man in his fifties, was hunched over at that moment. He helped his wife up and settled her back into her wheelchair. Then, he took Josiah’s hand, pleading, “Josiah, we, the Thorne family, have wronged you. Whatever you want, you can have. You can control our company and our assets as vou

wish. We only have one daughter, Lysander. If anything happens to her, how are we supposed to live out the rest of our lives?”
From the ward behind them, there came a heart–wrenching roar.
“I can’t go on living! Let me go! I can’t bear the shame of existing in this world any longer! Let me die!” shouted Lysanne.
Unable to hold back, Lynn remarked, “I’m not sure if this is a threat to the man or her parents.
The shouting was also mixed with the comforting words of the nurses.
“Ms. Lysanne, please, try to remain calm. Your parents are currently in a discussion with Mr. Guerra. The situation hasn’t reached a point where it can’t be salvaged yet…
“Absolutely, just wait a bit longer. Perhaps Mr. Guerra might just change his mind…”
Lysanne was still crying out, “Don’t stop me. He doesn’t want me anymore. Let me die. It will all be over when I’m gone…
Molly’s heart shattered upon hearing the news, her hands clasped together as she pleaded earnestly, “Josiah, I beg you to show some mercy to Lyss. She is my life. If she’s gone, I don’t want to live either!”
Howard gritted his teeth in agony, pleading, “Josiah, consider this a debt from the Thorne family. In the future, I’ll work like a beast of burden for you, serve you like a slave. Is that okay?”
Lynn was tempted to lean in for another look, but Lysander called out to her, “Lynn, let’s
“Coming,” said Lynn.
With a pivot of her foot, she departed in the opposite direction,
