Chapter 431
Lysander was bound to kill her himself.
After shooting an enraged glare at Thalassa, Charlotte turned to the waitstaff, “Tell the truth. Did you or
did you not see her with Mr. Leopold just now?”
Charlotte was confident because she was speaking the truth..
With so many eyes, it was impossible for everyone to be mistaken, right?
With all these witnesses, Lysander would surely believe her.
The waiters and waitresses all lowered their heads, not daring to utter a word.
Lysander placed his knife and fork on the table, the metal clinking against the wood with a dull sound,
like an intimidating force pounding at everyone’s heart.
Thalassa’s heart was also pounding, nervous and apprehensive.
She was gambling, too, unsure of how the waitstaff would choose.

Thalassa was so nervous that her back was slick with sweat.
Lysander’s deep gaze fell on the waitstaff, his low voice demanding, “Speak.”
Thalassa’s nerves were stretched taut.
The waiter on Thalassa’s side was the first to speak, “I recognize Mr. Leopold, and he didn’t come to
our restaurant today.”
Thalassa’s tightly wound nerves relaxed a bit, and she shot the waiter a look of subtle gratitude,
incredulous.
Charlotte was even more incredulous, and she was about to explode, “How was that possible, Leopold
was clearly here with Thalassa just now, eating steak and even holding hands.”
“Ms. Ravensong, you must have mistaken some other handsome man for Mr. Leopold,” the waiter
explained.
Charlotte was fuming, “Shut up! How could I possibly be mistaken, he even snatched my phone and
deleted my pictures. How could I be mistaken? You must have been bribed by Thalassa! Speak!”
Charlotte was so angry she was panting, pointing at the second waiter.
The second waiter was the doorman.
Thalassa was certain that he recognized her and knew that she had come to the restaurant with
Leopold.
Seeing Charlotte pointing at him, demanding him to speak.
Thalassa’s heart, which had just slightly relaxed, tightened even more, so apprehensive that she held
her breath.
She looked up slightly to see Lysander’s dark, deep-gaze fixed on her.
Sharp, dangerous, enough to suffocate her.
Her hands on her lap were clenched with tension.

The doorman looked at Charlotte, then at Lysander, lowered his gaze, and said, “There was indeed a
man and woman sitting here just now, but it was not this lady. Ms. Ravensong, you were mistaken.”
Thalassa breathed a sigh of relief.
Charlotte’s eyes widened in disbelief, unable to believe her own ears. She immediately asked the
remaining three waitstaff to testify.
All the waitstaff maintained the same stance, saying they did not see Thalaska and Leopold come in
and that Charlotte was mistaken.
Charlotte was on the verge of despair, and she shot each waiter an incredulous and angry look.
There was grievance but no outlet.
Her word against six, it was clear who Lysander would believe.
She was too wronged, so wronged that her breath became rapid.
She stamped her foot angrily, pointing at Thalassa, “It must be you. You must have bribed these
waitstaff!”
Thalaska smirked, “Ms. Ravensong, if you want to frame me, this is not the way to do it. Are all these
people less clear-eyed than you? Frame me, dispose of a rival in love, and get one step closer to Mr.
Sinclair, is that it?”
