Chapter 883
Lysander’s childhood was marred by the constant bickering of his parents, a situation that ended with their sudden
departure from his life.
The absence of paternal and maternal affection turned him into a colder, more aloof and ruthless individual than
most.
Yet, the daughter of the man responsible for the ruin of his family and the death of his parents, had borne him four
children. Those four children were so adorable that Zephyr barely had enough time to shower them with love.
How could he stand watching them grow up like Lysander did, deprived of parental affection?
But how could Lysander handle himself?
Every day, he faced the daughter of his enemy, watching her interact joyfully with their children, witnessing the
deep bond between mother and kids.
But what could he possibly do?
After all, Thalassa was the biological mother of the children.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThese were all Lysander’s karma.
“Grandpa, you should just relax and enjoy your golden years at the Sinclair’s house. Don’t worry about anything
else. Take care of your health and don’t give me any reason to worry,” Lysander comforted Zephyr.
“I’ll handle everything else.”
Zephyr sighed, “Well, you’re thirty now and capable of standing on your own. I trust you’ll handle things
appropriately and not fall for Thalassa.”
Love was the final boundary. If he crossed, there would be no turning back.
As long as he guarded his heart and didn’t fall for Thalassa, what was the harm in spending a lifetime dealing with
her?
But Zephyr feared Lysander’s defense would crumble, in which case he would follow in his father’s footsteps.
“Alright,” Lysander agreed.
As Thalassa was enjoying a meal with the children, a man with a refined air and a constant gentle smile on his lips
approached, “May I join you?”
Thalassa looked up and recognized the man as Callum, whom she had just been introduced to by Ethan.
Before she could respond, her daughter, Elowen, pointed to an empty spot next to her and chirped, “Sir, you can sit
here. No one’s sitting here.”
Callum turned his gaze to Elowen, whose chubby little face was smeared with crumbs and there was cream stained
on her cherry lips. Her large, innocent eyes were as clear as a spring brook.
That was so adorable.
He found his heart melting at her cuteness. He couldn’t help but pat her little head gently and filled his voice with
affection.
“Thank you, sweetheart. You’re so pretty. I wish I had a daughter as beautiful as you,” he said as he took the seat
next to Elowen, looking at her with a gentle and loving smile.
Elowen felt a sense of familiarity. As she giggled, her brows curled up in a way that was irresistibly cute, “Sir, are
you my mom’s friend?”
“Yes, I want to talk to your mom about something,” Callum replied, his soft voice sweetening itself unconsciously.
The presence of a child he liked made his voice alter.
“Oh, what do you want to talk about?” Elowen asked curiously.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe other three children also looked at Callum with curiosity.
Thalassa was surprised. She just met Callum for once and they barely knew each other. So what could he possibly
want to talk to her about?
“Do you mind if I have a private chat with your mom?” Callum asked Elowen, his eyes twinkling with amusement.
He also glanced at the other three kids to seek their approval.
There was no denying that he had a knack for making children feel comfortable, especially with his warm, inviting
smile,
“A private chat? That sounds fun! So you will chat privately with my mom and we will guess what you’re talking
about, right?” Elowen’s eyes lit up with curiosity.
“That sounds fun. Go on, talk to my mom,” Dorian urged with a hint of interest in his voice.
“Alright then,” Callum replied with a smile. He leaned in towards Thalassa, ready to whisper.
Sitting between Elowen and Thalassa, he was perfectly positioned to lean towards Thalassa. He was taller than her,
so he only had to incline his body slightly to reach her ear.
Thalassa stiffened at his scent in proximity.
Just then, Lysander emerged from the conference room. His intense gaze fell upon the scene unfolding before him.
His eyes. instantly frosted over and chilled to the core.
