NovelEnglishThalassa raised her hand high, keeping her phone out of reach, and then glanced down at the woman's legs, a cold smirk spreading across her face. "Weren't you just lying on the ground, claiming that you couldn't get up or walk? How cyou're suddenly as lively as a spring chicken?" The woman faltered, her act falling apart.
"I...I was just flustered because..." she stammered, clearly lacking conviction.
Rosalind was taken aback. "So, you were just trying to scam us, huh? If you don't get lost, I'm calling the police!" "No, no, don't call. I'm leaving. I'm leaving!" The woman hastily retreated.

"If it weren't for this situation, your car wouldn't be blocked," Rosalind said flatly before heading to her car. Thalassa paused for a moment, understanding Rosalind's implication. Rosalind was saying that Thalassa's intention wasn't solely to aid her, but rather to clear the way for herself.
It didn't matter to Thalassa though. Her assistance wasn't merely for the sake of receiving a thank you from Rosalind.
Resuming her path to her car, Thalassa passed the sleek limousine, inadvertently meeting Lysander's intense gaze. His eyes, profound and penetrating, sent a chill down her spine, causing her heart to race. Even after all this time, Thalassa still felt that familiar panic whenever she locked eyes with Lysander.

She had spent so much effort trying to escape Lysander, even getting Callum to help her and the kids make a getaway. Now that Lysander had indeed pushed her away, why did her heart feel so suffocated? Thalassa took a deep breath and said, "Have you not dated anyone in these three years? At your age, most people start thinking about settling down."
She didn't want to delve into her and Lysander's affairs with Callum, Her own feelings were muddled enough; how could she explain them to someone else? "I've spent three years trying to get over Leopold's death. He taughtthat love can be lethal. I haven't dared to try."
Callum's words made Thalassa's heart tighten. It had been a long tal since she'd heard Leopold's nfrom someone else, and hearing it now still brought a long-lost ache. "Leopold chose that path to win your freedom," Callum continued. "What do you mean?" Thalassa was stunned.
