Chapter 382 Be A Substitute
“Yeah, Howard… You’ve got the wrong person. Lyss has been here all along.” Susan said.
She then shot Josiah a meaningful glance. “You take Lysander to rest first. Howard hasn’t been quite himself all day today. We wouldn’t want to frighten Lysander.”
Josiah gave a slight nod, intending to leave with Lysander in his arms.
“I’ll go with you to see her.” Lysander suddenly said.
With a pair of fiery eyes, Howard gave a firm nod. “All right, good child. Thank you.”
Lysander struggled slightly, signaling for Josiah to let her go.
Josiah was perplexed. “Mr. Thorne has mistaken you for someone else. Don’t worry about it. I’ll handle the situation.
Howard exclaimed excitedly. “I’m not mistaken! She is indeed Lysa!”
“Mr. Thorne, please, take a moment to calm down.”
“I couldn’t afford to stay calm any longer! Molly is unconscious inside. If she doesn’t see Lysa soon, I’m afraid she might never get the chance!” Howard yelled.
Lysanne firmly gripped Howard, who was on the verge of losing his sanity, and yelled, “Dad, are you also going don’t recognize me either?”

Howard shook Lysanne off and immediately reached for Lysander’s hand. “Kid, come with me.”
Josiah firmly held onto Howard’s arm. “Mr. Thorne!”
“Let go.” Lysander said.
Josiah shook his head at her. “Lysander, I’ve made a mistake once before. I won’t let you be someone else’s stand–in again!”
Tears streaming down her face, Lysanne declared, “I’m right here! There’s no need for a stand–in!”
“Josiah.” Lysander lifted her head, looking at Josiah. “Le

Seeing Josiah’s hesitation, Howard swiftly pulled Lysander from his embrace and headed straight for the ICU.
“Dad!”
“Howard!”
Seemingly unfazed, Howard took Lysander’s hand and led her inside.
Suddenly, Lysander came to a halt.

for losing you, and it’s all our fault. However, your mom really wants to see you. The hardest thing she’s ever had to deal with is losing you. She’s been blaming herself for decades, and now that we’ve finally found you. You just-
Lysander’s voice was steady when she said, “Put on the sterile gown.”
“What?”
“Before entering the ICU, you need to put on a sterile gown and ensure proper disinfection,” Lysander
said.
Just then, a nurse from the ICU emerged and recognized Lysander, “Hi, Dr. Thorne.”
Lysander gave a slight nod. “Could you please fetch me two sets of sterile gowns? We’re going in to check on the patient.”
“I understand this gentlemán is a relative of the patient, but Dr. Thorne, are you also going in?” the nurse asked.
響
“Yes.
“However… You know I’m not stopping you deliberately, but you’re aware of the hospital’s rules. Only close relatives are allowed in.”
“I know.”
“Then-
“The patient inside is my mom.
The nurse was taken aback. “What?”
Howard pleaded urgently, “Miss, please provide us with sterile gowns quickly. My wife has been yearning to see our daughter. I beg you to hurry…”
The nurse was somewhat taken aback, yet Howard’s sincerity seemed genuine. Furthermore, Lysander had established a certain level of trust during her years at the hospital. Without any suspicion, the nurse arranged for them to put on sterile gowns and proceed with the disinfection.
Finally, when Howard entered the ICU, he saw his frail and emaciated wife. Instantly, a surge of emotion overwhelmed him. Tears streamed down his face as he took her hand and said, “Honey, Lysa is here…”
On the bed, Molly showed no response.
If it weren’t for the nearby machine displaying vital signs, she would have been indistinguishable from a
corpse.
“Honey, did you hear me? Lysa has come to see you…” Howard repeated.
