Chapter 601
He was naive enough to believe that it was all for the sake of the company’s progress!
Lysander, who had always been disinterested, even repulsed by women, was now throwing money around like it was nothing, all
for Thalassa’s sake.
Could it be that Lysander had fallen for Thalassa?
Leopold’s suppressed heart began to tremble with increasing anxiety.
“Mr. Ethan, did you know that Lysander built a villa for Thalassa in the countryside?” Leopold asked, attempting to dig out more
information about Lysander and Thalassa.
His mother, Amelia, had gone behind his back to retrieve the bracelet he’d given Thalassa, which had infuriated Leopold. He
missed Thalassa so much that he traveled to her hometown, hoping to be closer to her.
What he found instead was that a new villa had replaced Thalassa’s old family home. Thalassa’s aunt, Astrid, lived there, and
whenever Thalassa went home, she stayed at the villa.
During his stay in Hollowbrook, he had hoped to find some memories of their time together. Instead, he found himself shocked by
Lysander’s swift and domineering actions.
Lysander was capable of achieving anything he set his mind to. With all that luxury and grandeur, how could he have possibly
competed?
To his surprise, when Thalassa returned, she brought back four children, and their father was none other than Lysander!
That revelation only deepened the wounds in Leopold’s heart.
Ethan, who often hung out with Lysander, Alaric, and Richard, was somewhat familiar with those affairs, even if Lysander didn’t
talk about them directly.
However, they had all been busy around that time, leaving Ethan out of the loop regarding Lysander’s latest updates.
Leopold’s heart clenched at the mention of the events from five years prior. All of his regrets stemmed from that one night.
If it hadn’t been for that night, he and Thalassa wouldn’t have been torn apart, and he wouldn’t have been in this situation of
unrequited love.
All of it stemmed from Isabella. Why hadn’t he let her die that night?
Thinking of Isabella, Leopold’s teeth gritted in hatred.
“Mr. Sinclair, are you okay? Don’t tell me you have some history with Thalassa too?” Ethan asked, noticing Leopold’s strange
demeanor. Leopold abruptly looked up, his gaze concealed. “Twenty thousand cell phones. When can they be delivered to the
market?”
He deftly changed the subject.
“The day after tomorrow, at the earliest,” Ethan replied.
When Thalassa returned to the office, Anna greeted her warmly. “Thalassa, you must be exhausted. Have some coffee.”
Thalassa looked at her in surprise, then at the cup of coffee in her hand.
Anna smiled gently. “What’s wrong? Afraid it’s poisoned? I’ll drink a sip first in that case, and then you can.”
With that, she prepared to take a sip from the cup.
“It’s not that. It’s just that you’re my senior, and t feel bad having you pour coffee for me,” Thalassa said, not stopping her from
drinking.
“What’s the big deal? You help me with paperwork, and I pour you coffee. We’re all in this together,” Anna said, friendly and kind.
Just as Thalassa was about to speak, her phone rang. She took it out and saw the caller ID.
Her gaze faltered, her hand shook, fear rooted deep within her cells.
