Resurrecting the Genius Within

Chapter 385 Laughing At Myself
By then, Susan also discerned that things didn't seem as straightforward as she had initially thought.
"Josiah, what's going on?" Susan asked.
In response. Josiah let out a cold, humorless laugh.
"Why are you laughing when I'm asking you a question?"
Josiah withdrew his gaze, closing his eyes in pain. "I'm laughing at myself."
Howard was puzzled. "Josiah, why are you so worked up?"
Josiah had his eyes shut, and he furrowed his brows tightly in distress.
Understanding her son, Susan stepped in to explain, "Howard, let's leave the kids to sort out their own issues. We should check on Molly first."
The moment those words fell, the door to the ICU opened. "Dr. Thorne?"
The scene that night was steeped in desolation, filled with profound sorrow, and tinged with palpable
terror and confusion..
However, Lysander became the most composed person.
She responded, "Yes? How's the patient doing?
"All vital signs have shown some improvement, but her physical condition is still poor, necessitating a few more days in the ICU. Additionally, she's been crying constantly. It might be beneficial if a family member could stay outside the glass to keep her company and help soothe her emotions."
Hearing that, Howard declared resolutely, "I'll do it!"
"Let me do it," Lysander said. "You're advanced in years and have been pushing yourself for so many days. You should head back early to rest. I'll stay here and keep watch."
A bitter expression surfaced on Howard's face, "Lysa..."
"Josiah?" Lysander called out.
Immediately, Josiah responded, "I'm here.”
"Do me a favor. Could you drop off my dad at home on your way?"
Josiah replied, "I'll have Carol do that. I'll stay here with you."
"No need. Just help me get my dad home. Thank you. I appreciate your help. Lysander said
Josiah's gaze softened. "All right, leave it to me."
Madam Susan, thank you for coming to the hospital to see my mom today. You should head home and

should be concerned. Your mother will be in the ICU for several more days. You won't be able to handle it all by yourself. You'll need someone to take turns with you."
Lysander gave a bitter smile. "I can't leave."
After all the commotion that happened that day, it was clear to anyone with discerning eyes that the crux of Molly's illness was indeed Lysander.
Molly was afraid that Lysander wouldn't acknowledge her, afraid she might never see Lysander again. Thus, enveloped by an overwhelming sense of despair, Molly lost her will to live..
If Molly were to wake up again, not see Lysander, and get sicker, the consequences would be unthinkable.
Susan also thought of that, so she said, "In that case, let Josiah accompany you. At the very least, he can help with delivering meals and water."
Lysander knew that Susan was trying to rekindle her relationship with Josiah.
She instinctively resisted, even contemplating seeking help from Daphne.
However, the thought of Delores being ill in bed at that time made her dismiss the idea.

"W-What about me?" Lysanne hesitated before asking, "Shouldh stay as well? My parents have raised me all these years. I want to show them my gratitude and respect." The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!
Lysander stared at her coldly. "I don't want to see you, though."
A pallor washed over Lysanne's face. "Even if you are our parents' biological daughter, you can't deny me the right to care for our mother, can you?"

"Care for her?" Lysander laughed coldly. "When you were so desperate not to be abandoned by Josiah that you forced Mom to stake her life to pressure him, where was your filial piety then?" The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest

Lysanne was stumped.
"Have you only found your filial piety recently?"
"How could you say that about me? It's true that I was desperate, but I never
forced Mom into doing anything!" Lysanne retorted.
