Chapter 387 Stand In For One Another
Lysander greeted her colleagues in the ICU and then made a trip to the obstetrics and gynecology. department.
Lynn was not present that night. Instead, a new intern, whom Lysander was unfamiliar with, was on duty.
Seeing Lysander approach, the intern asked, "Madam, there are no doctors on duty here at night. You might want to go to the emergency room."
Lysander replied, "I came to pick up something."
"Oh? Did you leave something here? You'll need to register at the nurse' station."
A nurse who knew Lysander happened to walk over to her and greet her. "Dr. Thorne, weren't you assigned elsewhere?"
"I returned to the country to attend to some matters," Lysander said. "Is Lynn's folding bed still around?"
"Yes. I saw her using it just yesterday."
"All right. Please help me to inform her when she comes tomorrow. I'll be borrowing it for tonight and will return it to her tomorrow."
"Okay. Where do you need it taken to? Let me help you carry it there."
"No need. There's an elevator."
When Lysander retrieved the folding bed and returned to the ICU entrance, she encountered Josiah, who seemed rather anxious, pacing back and forth at the doorway.
Seemingly alerted by a noise, he turned around and saw her. He immediately approached Lysander and took the folding bed from her.
"Are you planning on sleeping here tonight?"
"That's right. I've always seen family members of patients sleeping outside the ICU. I never thought it would be my turn this time."
Josiah asked, "Where do you want to put this?"
"Outside the glass window is fine. Somewhere she can spot me the moment she wakes up."
Following her instructions, Josiah set
solidity, before he said, "Okay, up the folding bed. He tested it first, ensuring its sturdiness and
You can lie down for a bit. I'll go find a nurse to get you a blanket."
"No need. I couldn't sleep either. As long as there's a place to rest, it's fine."
Josiah let out a sigh, standing next to her with his hands hanging loosely by his side. He watched as she slowly took a seat, her gaze fixed on the person lying in the hospital bed through the glass window.
He swallowed. He had countless thoughts churning in his mind, yet he was at a loss for where to begin.

Lysander found it amusing and asked, "You're not a doctor. How can you be so sure she will recover?"
"I just wanted to make you feel better."
"Perhaps I truly am a cold-hearted person. I don't find this moment particularly distressing"
Josiah said. "You're not cold-hearted. It's just difficult for you to care deeply for someone else. I'm not cursing anyone. I'm merely drawing a comparison. If the person lying there now were the mother who raised you, you certainly wouldn't be as indifferent as you are now."
Lysander hesitated for a moment, then softly hummed in acknowledgment.
"Do you still remember things from before you were four?"
"I barely remember anything," Lysander said. "My mom told me that I had fallen into the water when I was little and almost drowned. I can't recall anything from before that incident."
"I see."
Lysander let out a sigh, patting the other side of the folding bed. "Why don't you sit for a while?"
"It's all right. I'm fine with standing."
"You're so tall, so I have to tilt my head back to talk to you. It's making my neck hurt."
The tension in Josiah's expression eased considerably as he took a seat at a slight distance from her.
Still, a folding bed was, after all, a folding bed.

"I'm sorry," he apologized. "Maybe I should just stand."
"Do you plan on standing throughout the night? Just take a seat."
"I'll be more careful, then."
For a moment, they fell silent, causing the atmosphere to turn eerily quiet.
