Chapter 114

Astrid was heading for the door.

“I’m home.” Hertha walked in with a plastic bag. When she bumped into Astrid, she chuckled

awkwardly. “Thalassa has to work overtime today. She won’t be home. I took a spin at the supermarket

and bought some ingredients for dinner.”

Thalassa had asked her to tell her mom and aunt she was working late. She didn’t want them to know

she’d been hauled off by the police and worry them.

Hertha was terrible at lying and was still figuring out how to break the news.

On her way home, she’d made a detour to the supermarket and bought stuff for dinner. It would keep

Astrid busy and away from asking too many questions.

“Thalassa’s working late? Is she not coming home for dinner?” Astrid took the bag from Hertha,

glanced behind her, and then asked, “Where are the kids?”

Hertha had left with Atticus and Dorian.

How come she was the only one who came back?

“I ran into Evelyn at the park. They wanted to play with her.” Hertha replied.

“Give Thalassa a call. Tell her to come home early if she can. We have a guest. And he’s here

specifically for her.” Astrid was worried about not being a good host.

“A guest? Who?” Hertha was curious. She walked into the room and saw the awe-inspiring, powerful

man sitting on the couch.

“Mr. Sinclair!” She gasped in surprise.

It was Lysander!

He was tall and distinguished, dressed in a sleek black suit, looking noble and elegant.

Just sitting there, he was a sight to behold. Everything else in the room paled in comparison. He stood

out, prestigious and charismatic. Lysander turned his head and recognized Hertha as the mother of the

kids who had caused a ruckus in his office and a friend of Thalassa’s.

‘Mr. Sinclair, please wait a moment. I’ll start cooking. Why don’t you stay for dinner? It’ll be ready soon.”

Astrid walked in with the bag. – her face filled with a polite smile.

Lysander stood up and gracefully adjusted his cuffs. In a deep voice, he said, “No need. I should be

going”

And with that, he left.

Astrid was about to politely insist he stay, but his presence was too overpowering. The words got stuck

in her throat, and she couldn’t. say them.

Hertha was still in a daze, standing there.

What just happened?

Lysander had actually come to Thalassa’s house!

He was the esteemed CEO of the Sinclair Group, a man to be looked up to.

He’d actually lowered himself to come to Thalassa’s rundown neighborhood.

If this got out, no one would believe it.

While Hertha was still stunned, Astrid nudged her arm and asked, “Do you know this man?”

Hertha snapped out of it, widened her round eyes, and said, “He’s the CEO of the Sinclair Group,

Thalassa’s boss.”

Astrid looked scared. ‘Her boss? Why is he looking for Thalassa? Did she do something wrong…”

Oh no, the jig was up.

Hertha was on edge and laughed nervously. “No way! Thalassa is always so obedient and well-

behaved. She couldn’t have done anything wrong. Evelyn, you’re overthinking.”

“But why would he want to see Thalassa?” Astrid was still worried.

-“Maybe because Thalassa is doing a great job, and he wanted to check on her.” Hertha finished and

stuck her tongue out

absentmindedly.

Astrid flashed a grin and said, “Alright, I’m off to cook”
