Chapter 168
Thalassa was totally gobsmacked. How on earth did the emerald pendant she had been searching for
for five years end up in Lysander’s hands?
She mulled it over, and the only explanation was that Faye must have found the pendant at some point
and given it to Lysander.
Thalassa chuckled awkwardly, handing the pendant back to Lysander, “Mr. Sinclair, this is your stuff,
you better keep it.”
Lysander frowned slightly, he was clearly displeased, but his voice was firm, “Once I give something
away, I never take it back. You keep
He radiated authority, even without raising his voice.
Despite his calm demeanor, Thalassa couldn’t help but shudder a little.
Since Lysander insisted, she reluctantly stepped forward to take the pendant.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon closer inspection, the pendant was shaped like a cloud with a domineering dragon carved around
it. It was so lifelike that it seemed like it was soaring through the clouds.
Five years ago, when her reputation was tarnished, she only casually glanced at the pendant before
losing it. She hadn’t really paid attention to the details of the design.
Even later, when she described the pendant to Hertha, she only remembered the rough shape and
design but completely forgot the exact stance of the dragon.
Suddenly, a thought popped into her head.
If she herself wasn’t clear about the details of the pendant, how did Isabella manage to create a
duplicate?
The fake one was virtually identical to the real one.
Curious, Thalassa asked Lysander, “Mr. Sinclair, where did you find this pendant?”
“Isabella found the pendant.”
So that was what happened. No wonder Isabella could make an identical fake. She had the real thing
to reference.
After all these years, the pendant Thalassa had been searching for had actually been in Isabella’s
possession.
Not only did Isabella not return the pendant, she made a fake one and had someone else hand it to
Thalassa, all to frame her for theft!
That woman was truly cunning.
The more Thalassa thought about it, the angrier she got.
She had considered Isabella a close friend, but Isabella had treated her like an enemy, scheming
against her time and time again..
“Don’t you like the pendant?” Lysander’s deep, icy voice suddenly shattered the silence as his gaze
pierced into her.
Thalassa felt the reproach in his words. She put aside her grudge against Isabella and lifted her eyes to
meet Lysander’s deep, indifferent gaze as her heart involuntarily pounded.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis aura was overpowering, making it hard to hold his gaze.
She, an ordinary girl, was having a hard time handling it.
After taking a deep breath, Thalassa suppressed her fear and responded, “Anyone would be mad when
something is taken from them by force.”
Back then, she was both angry and wronged; if the pendant hadn’t been lost, she would have taken it
to the police long ago.
Lysander’s gaze unnerved her, and she spoke softly. But he still caught the hint of injustice in her
words.
She was an innocent girl, and he had taken her first time. It was only natural for her to feel upset and
wronged.
“Clear your schedule for tonight.” Lysander suddenly said.
Thalassa was confused, “Mr. Sinclair, do we have to work overtime tonight?”
“We’re meeting the parents.” Lysander stated briefly and clearly.
Thalassa was taken aback, “Meeting the parents?”
Lysander continued, “I said I’d take responsibility, and I
