Chapter 137 Threatening To Break Up
By Saturday, Lysander was almost done unpacking.
Daphne insisted on her having a housewarming party, adamant on coming over for a meal.
“Don’t worry. I bring the ingredients and assist you. I’m not going to be a freeloader.”
Lysander was accustomed to waking up early. After she went downstairs to buy some groceries, Daphne showed up upon her return home.
“Ugh, this is so heavy. Come give me a hand.”
Daphne was carrying bags of all sizes. Seeing this, Lysander couldn’t help but worry. “It’s just the two of us. Can we finish all this food?”
Daphne gave her a playful wink. “Who said it was just the two of us?”
Upon hearing this, Lysander felt a jolt in her heart. “Ms. Everhart, what are you planning to do?”
“I’ve found someone to grill the meat for us. We don’t have to pay him. He’s good just sharing our meal.”
Daphne had called someone over, and Lysander knew without guessing who it was.
Before their conversation ended, Adrian had already arrived.
He was also carrying some items in his hand, along with a bouquet of fresh flowers. “Dr. Thorne, happy housewarming.”
As it would be rude to decline, Lysander had no choice but to courteously accept it. “Thank you.”
“Come on, come in quickly.” Daphne warmly beckoned, skipping cheerfully into the house. “This place feels. tiny…
Lysander said, “I’m living alone, so I don’t need much space. Plus, this place is just temporary. Once I buy a house. I’ll move there.”
Daphne nodded, surveying the room with a satisfied smile. “It’s quite close to your hospital,” she observed. “You could even come back here for a nap during your lunch breaks.”
Lysander nodded, giving Daphne a thorough once–over.
Daphne folded her arms across her chest. “Your eyes are like X–rays.”
Lysander said, “I just feel like you seemed overly excited today.”
Daphne jumped next to her, lightly poking her arm while saying, “I heard that Josiah and his mistress are int the midst of a breakup.”
