If you haven't seen it, then don't bother. It's irritating news." The guy's curiosity was piqued, and he turned to ask his buddies what it was about.

"Did you chere to play pool or to find someone?" Lysander seemed indifferent. "I'm here to see Josiah. There's something I need to discuss with him." "Oh, you're here for Josiah... Um..." Aiden drew out his words, looking at Josiah, unsure what to do.
He was fully aware of everything that transpired between these two, hoping he wouldn't get caught in the crossfire.
However, Josiah seemed oblivious to the exchange between Aiden and Lysander. He didn't even lift his head as he spoke to the girl. "Try again." The girl felt a bit embarrassed. "How about you go about your business? I'll go practice on another pool table.
"What's the matter? Don't you want to learn from me?" The girl's attention was instantly drawn back by his gentle tone. "I do." His voice grew increasingly gentle as he said, "Let's carry on then. I'll be right here for you. You need to be confident in yourself." "But I think that lady wants to talk to you..." the girl said, hesitating.
Josiah pointed at the center of the white ball. "Look, aim here." The girl glanced at Lysander, a bit flustered. "O-Okay." The atmosphere fell eerily silent, with only the crisp sound of the cue striking the balls filling the air.

"Once you've got your aim right, strike with confidence," he said.
"Don't hesitate, hurry." Josiah clearly didn't want to have anything to do with Lysander, so the others dared not say a word either. They could only exchange glances, hoping for someone to break the awkward silence.
Zane cover to mediate. "Josiah is busy at the moment. Why don't you go and take a break in the booth?" Without waiting for Lysander's response, he hastily told the service staff, "Bring this lady a glass of orange juice." "That won't be necessary" I sander renlied with a fondly ver firm demeanor declining his kind offer "Til 2/3 Chapter 418 In What Position just have a quick chat with Josiah, and then I'll be on my way. I won't take up too much of his time." Finding himself in a tight spot, Zane edged closer to Josiah and said carefully, “Josiah... you know your wife... I mean, Lysander well. She wouldn't show up without a good reason. Something important must've brought her here. Maybe we should hear her out first."
Josiah, boiding the cue, finally paused in his tracks. He glanced at Zane, seemingly understanding why Lysander knew he was here. Then, he let out a cold chuckle. "Looks like you have nothing better to do." Zane knew he had been caught red-handed. With a troubled look on his face, he turned toward Lysander, seeming to say there was nothing else he could do.
Lysander said, "It's okay. Since Mr. Guerra's busy, I'll wait nearby. We can talk once he's done." Having said that, she made her way to the booth that Zane had mentioned and sat down.

It must have been the gauze used to cover the wound to prevent friction.
She stood up and walked over again.
This time, it was the girl who spotted her first. She paused, signaling to Josiah that Lysander was behind him.
Josiah turned and looked back. "Why are you still here? I thought you had left a long tago."
Lysander spoke softly. "I must advise you that since your back injury hasn't fully healed, it's best to avoid any vigorous movements during this period. Try not to bend over too much when playing pool. If your wound reopens, the subsequent treatment will be a hassle." Josiah straightened his back, finally giving her his full attention. His expression was intimidatingly his voice even frostier. "In what position are you speaking tonow?" he asked.
