Chapter 134
Then she continued wiping Elowen’s face, telling Evelyn, “Mom, me and Mr. Sinclair aren’t an itern or anything.”
“Really? That suit belongs to Mr. Sinclair, I saw him wearing it today at the Sinclair group, and I can recognize it, Thalassa. If
you’re dating someone, I wouldn’t mind, you don’t have to hide it from me.” Evelyn’s sharp gaze fixed on Thalassa.
“I wore it because... Thalassa was about to explain, but then saw four pairs of small, confused, and innocent eyes staring at her.
If she spilled the beans about being kidnapped and nearly losing her reputation, the kids would definitely be upset. She didn’t
want her little angels to worry or suffer because of her. So she stopped the explanation, keeping the truth under wraps.
She picked up the spoon and continued serving salad, changing the subject, “I’ll return the suit to Mr. Sinclair tomorrow. Mom,
your cooking is really tasty today.”
With that, she flashed Evelyn a bright smile, her eyes crinkling at the corners and two cute dimples appeared on her cheeks,
making her look adorable and beautiful. Evelyn sensed her daughter’s reluctance and didn’t press further.
Considering the kids were still young, and knowing adult stuff could be harmful to their growth, she let it slide too.
“If you like it, have more.” Evelyn said, placing more food onto Thalassa’s plate.
That evening, Thalassa told bedtime stories to the kids.
One by one, they all drifted off to sleep.

She put down the storybook, cradled the children in her arms, cuddling them gently. Their soft little bodies smelled of milk, it was
really. comforting.
The next day was Saturday, a day off from work.
When Thalassa woke up, it was already late morning, and the bed beside her was empty. The children were already up.
Sunlight poured in from the window, warming her face. She stretched, yawning lazily, having had a good night’s sleep. She got
up, got herself ready, and after freshening up, she opened the door to see the four kids sitting on the sofa watching TV.

Evelyn and Astrid were chatting nearby. The scene was very harmonious and warm. This lifted her spirits, and she cheerfully
greeted, “Good morning.”
“Good morning, Mom,” the four kids chimed in unison.
Evelyn glanced at her and said, “The sun’s already high in the sky, you call this morning?”
Thalassa just smiled and didn’t respond, admitting to herself she was the last one up. She tidied up her hair and headed to the
kitchen for some grub.
Just as she pulled out a yogurt from the fridge, her phone buzzed. It was a neighbor from the village.
She quickly answered, “Hello, Greta, what’s up?”
“Thalassa, weren’t you looking for an emerald pendant? Did you find it? Greta from the village asked her
Five years ago, a storm had collapsed Thalassa’s firewood shed and pigsty. Thalassa cleaned up the debris brick by brick, piece
by piece. The neighbors were puzzled. If she was clearing the rubble, why not just shovel it all away at once? Wasn’t she just
wasting time and energy by clearing it bit by bit?
When they asked Thalassa why she was doing this, she said she was looking for something, an emerald pendant shaped like a
cloud.
The neighbors’ question triggered Thalassa’s memory from five years ago. She tensed up, saying seriously, “I haven’t found it
yet, I’m still looking.”
