But she didn’t push Lysander away.
Chapter 1279
It wasn't that she didn’t care about Callum'’s feelings, but she wanted to make it
clear to him that pining for her was meaningless.
Thalassa was brooding when out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse
of a pair of piercing, deep-set eyes. She tried to look away, but Lysander’s icy
gaze pulled her back.
Their eyes met.
His eyes seemed to swirl with a blizzard, threatening to consume her very soul.
Thalassa’s heart pounded like a drum inside her chest. What had she done now
to upset
him?
Locked in a stare with Lysander, her heart racing, she worried he might lose it on
the boat. When he lost his cool, it was a disaster.
“Look! There's a bird diving for fish-it's fascinating! It can swim and even dive
underwater for several minutes without coming up,” Evelyn suddenly exclaimed,
pointing excitedly at the surface of the lake.
Evelyn's voice broke through Thalassa’s tension and embarrassment. She
quickly turned to Evelyn with a smile and said, “Indeed. There are so many
wonders in the world that we've yet to see. We should really get out travelling

“I'm not getting any younger, and there's not much time left to wander,” Evelyn
sighed softly.

trip.

Thalassa’s cheeks turned pale with concern.
How she wished she could return to her mother’s side to hug her and ease her
worries.
But Lysander held her tightly, preventing her from escaping.
“You can still wander the world at a hundred, let alone at fifty!” Lysander’s deep,
magnetic voice suddenly rang out.
He was responding to Evelyn's earlier lament, offering her reassurance.
Thalassa was surprised. She turned to glance at him, his ruggedly handsome
features sharp and resolute, exuding a potent masculine charm.
His allure made Thalassa’s breath catch. Charming men always had a way of

“Ah!” Thalassa’s body lurched with the motion.
Lysander’s arms wrapped around her, keeping her from being thrown overboard.
“Splash!” Caught off guard by the sudden jolt, Evelyn tumbled into the lake
suddenly.
Water sprayed everywhere as Evelyn flailed on the surface, crying out, “Help!”
Her plea for help was cut short as she began to sink.
