The following morning, while having breakfast, Lysander handed over a bank card loaded with two million to her parents.

“Lysa, why are you giving us your bank card?”

With a nonchalant expression, Lysander said, “I called Daphne last night. She mentioned she had some personal savings set aside. She’s offered to len free.”

Maverick looked at her disapprovingly. “Really?”

Lysander handed him the phone directly. “Why don’t you call Daphine directly and ask?”

Laura mediated the situation and said, “All right, all right. Daphne really came through for us. Despite her own company facing troubles, she was willing t

Lysander said. “Her company has been swamped with issues lately. I reckon she doesn’t have the time. We can talk about it once things settle down.”

“Okay, anytime is fine. Just don’t let it interfere with Daphne’s important matters.”

Maverick was still somewhat skeptical. “Lysa, did Josiah give you this money?”

Lysander responded quickly and very honestly, “No.”

She spoke with conviction, for she wasn’t lying.

Upon seeing her confident demeanor, Maverick finally believed her. “As long as it’s not him, that’s fine. Also, it’s not right to not pay interest. Regardless

As long as the loan could be paid off first, all future matters could be properly planned.

Lysander nodded. “All right, I’ll mention it to her later and see if she’s interested.”

“We must give it to her even if she doesn’t accept it. During our hard times, Daphne was there to lend a hand, so we must show our gratitude.”

“Okay, okay. If you say so, I’ll do it. The food is getting cold. Dad, you better start eating. After we finish, I’ll go with you to the bank to pay off the loan.”

After breakfast, Lysander accompanied her father to the bank.

She watched with her own eyes as Maverick signed the documents and swiped the card, settling the loan in

full.

To be on the safe side, Lysander also requested a loan settlement certificate.

By the time they returned home, it was almost noon.

Laura was at home preparing lunch, with her daughter, Michelle, who had recently become much more sensible, assisting her mother.

When Lysander and Maverick arrived home, a large table full of dishes had already been set.

Lysander still had some money on her card. During dinner, she discussed with her parents, “Now that we’ve bought the house, and there’s no rush to pay back the money, I’m considering enrolling Mich in a summer c

Laura gently declined. “We should probably save a bit instead of spending. Although Daphne isn’t in a rush for it, it would be best if we repay her as soon as possible.”

Lysander said, “Mich needs to gain some experience. She can’t always stay by you and Dad’s side. This is a perfect opportunity to foster her independe

“Lysander, this must cost a fortune…”

Lysander said, “You just focus on enjoying your summer camp abroad. Don’t worry about anything else. Also, remember, stop reaching out to Zachary. E

As long as Michelle was not in Harborbrook, Zachary no longer had the means to threaten her using Michelle’s safety.

After having lunch with her foster parents and younger sister, Lysander stayed at home until the

afternoon, reluctantly leaving only when she had to

Laura thought that Lysander was busy with work, so she didn’t persuade her to stay. Instead, she and her husband packed some food for her to take with her, incessantly reminding her. “Come home if you’re tired: take good care of yourself when you’re alone, and make sure you eat well.”

Lysander quickly accepted it, not daring to look back as she left, fearful that her adoptive parents might catch a glimpse of the fleeting vulnerability she

On the way back, Adrian sent a message to Lysander on WhatsApp: Is the matter resolved?

He deliberately waited a full day before he came to ask her. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Lysander replied: It’s already been taken care of. Thank you. I’ll definitely repay the money as soon as possible.

Adrian responded with a casual emoji, jokingly adding: Sure, but you’ll have to treat me to a meal.

Lysander felt a slight unease in her heart, but she indeed owed Adrian a huge favor this time. Given that her benefactor had made a request, it seemed

On the other side, Adrian had been staring at the message on his phone screen for quite a while. He rubbed his eyes as if fearing she might change her

“This incident is a big deal for our family, so I really should treat you.”

After a moment of contemplation, Adrian said, “You once promised me that given the chance, you’d personally cook a meal for me, so I could taste your

Lysander genuinely didn’t want to give Adrian any more false hope, but the current situation made it impossible for her to refuse him. “Okay,” she said, “b

Adrian’s voice was brimming with joy. “Don’t worry, I’ll take a while to get there too. I’ll stop by your place. to pick up White Coat’s vaccination reconl,”

“Okay”

The two of them arrived at the front door almost simultaneously.

However, Lysander hadn’t expected that he would also bring White Coat back.

“It seemed like White Coat had a mild case of separation anxiety. The moment I stepped out, it started to whimper. I simply couldn’t bear it, so I ended up bringing it along.”

Lysander nodded. “What did the vet say? Thanks for your help.”

Before anything else. Adrian slipped into his slippers, placed White Coat on the floor, and said, “The vet assured me that its hind leg isn’t seriously injure

Upon seeing Lysander, White Coat immediately began to wag its tail and circled around her, appearing quite lively.

It seemed that over the past couple of days, Adrian had taken really good care of it.

Lysander lovingly stroked the fluffy bundle. “It seems like it’s time to supplement its diet with some fish oil. I’ve heard it’s good for a dog’s coat.”

Adrian showed her the bag he held in his hand. “I picked this up while I was out fetching White Coat.”

Lysander was at a loss for words. Thousands of thoughts and words could only be condensed into a simple thank you.

“You’re most welcome.”

Adrian had naturally formed a habit of cooking here, and without a second thought, he tied on an apron to lend a hand.

Just as Lysander had immersed the vegetables in the sink, she turned her head to peel a potato, only to find that Adrian had already prepared the coland

With a hint of helplessness, Lysander said, “Didn’t we agree that I would do the cooking?”

“If I lend you a hand, the food will be served faster. I’m already hungry,” Adrian explained matter–of–factly.
