e doctor flipped through it and nodded. “Yes, your temperature has stabilized, but the inflammation is still present. We’ll have to administer fluids to you for a few more days.”
Josiah did tell her that she had to be hospitalized for seven more days.
The doctor glanced at the IV drip once more before asking, “Is this your sister or your sister–in–law? Where’s your husband? Did he step out?”

Lysander quickly waved her hand. “No, it’s not like that…”
“Doctor, you’re mistaken. The man who was here carlier isn’t Lysa’s husband. They are just acquaintances who aren’t very close.”
A hint of surprise flashed across the doctor’s eyes. “If he’s not your husband, why was he wiping you down to reduce your fever last night?”
Oh no.
Lysander had no idea about that at all.
She was still wearing her own clothes and hadn’t changed into a hospital gown. Who would have thought…
Tiffany was also puzzled. “Wipe her down?”
Lysander said, “Maybe he just wiped my hands. Using alcohol to wipe the palms can count as a form of physical cooling.”
“Oh, I see.”
“That’s not it.” the doctor continued, “He must have wiped you down. He went to the pantry several times to get hot water. The pantry is right next to the nurse’s station, I’ve seen him making quite a few trips there. Just wiping your hands wouldn’t use that much water, would it?”
Lysander didn’t know what to say,
Tiffany stood there, mouth agape.
The doctor, realizing the potential misunderstanding, quickly added, “Look, I didn’t actually see him wiping your body. He might have just thought the air in the room was too dry. Hospitals don’t have humidifiers, so he could have been using hot water to humidify the air… Anyway, take care and call if you need anything. I have other patients to check on, so I’ll be on my way.”
After the doctor left, Tiffany turned to look at Lysander, looking somewhat bewildered.
Lysander said, “The air at Apex City is quite dry, and Mr. Guerra is a meticulous
Tiffany opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but she hesitated.
She seemed to be holding onto a big secret.
Lysander asked, “Ms. Lanister, is there something you want to say?”
person.
Suddenly, Tiffany’s face turned bright red. “Lysa, please don’t be upset about what I’m about to tell you.”
This piqued Lysander’s curiosity. “What is it?”
“Perhaps Jose didn’t bring you to the hospital specifically. I suspect… he brought you here because it was convenient for him.”
“What do you mean?”
Tiffany leaned in and whispered, “Do you remember I told you that Jose has someone truly special in his heart?”

Chapter 492 The Bite Mark On Josiah
“Yes.”
“I think I’ve seen that woman, Tiffany whispered, discreetly pointing toward the adjacent room, “When I first arrived, I saw a girl in the room next door. She seemed vaguely familiar at first, but after hearing what the doctor said, I remembered who she was. She spoke at the summit yesterday!”
This time, it was Lysander’s turn to be confused.
Tiffany continued excitedly. “It must be her! I always wondered why Jose decided to come all the way here suddenly when he hadn’t attended the summit for years. He must have had a reason! I noticed her when she spoke yesterday. She’s both beautiful and formidable. That’s just the type that Jose likes!”
“How do you know?”
“Because she’s just like Lyss!”
“Well… This is merely a speculation. Let’s not discuss this matter further. If we’re wrong, we may cause innecessary distress to the lady.”
Let me share another secret with you.” Tiffany leaned in closer and whispered, “When Jose left just now, I noticed a bite mark on his neck. It was definitely left by a woman.”
