Chapter 15


    “He once gave me an emerald pendant. I should be able to track him down through this pendant, but I


    lost it five years ago I have no clues, so how am! supposed to find him?” Thssa spilled her guts to


    Hertha Between them, there were no secrets.


    “Do you remember what the pendant looked like?” Hertha asked


    1have a vague memory, but I carit recall the details. It had been so many years, and she was so upset


    and angry back then, she didn’t pay much attention to the pendant. How could she remember it


    clearly?


    “Why don’t you try to draw the pendan? Let me see Hertha suggested. Being a jewelry designer, she


    might be able to help.


    Dipping her finger in water. Thssa drew the shape of the pendant on the table- it was shaped like a


    cloud.


    Hertha scratched her head and stumped “Seems like I’m out of my depth here, I have no idea where to


    find this pendant”


    At that moment, the four kids saw the pendant’s shape on the table. They quickly retreated to their


    rooms.


    Atticus grabbed his tablet and started to operate it quickly, the screen filled with images of emerald


    pendants shaped like clouds.


    Sharp–eyed Sophia pointed at one of them: This one was once a royal collection. The rest are modern


    knock–offs.”


    Sophia had a knack for studying jewelry and antiques. She could tell real from fake just by looking at a


    picture. She was a whiz at this.


    Thssa made sure to educate her children well. In their free time, she often took them to the


    bookstore to read and learn. The kids would always find their favorite books to read. Thssa thought


    they were reading fairy tales, so she didn’t interfere much. But in reality, the books they were reading


    had nothing to do with fairy tales.


    Hearing Sophia’s remark, Atticus quickly did a search on the emerald pendant. Soon, he had all the


    details about the pendant’s origin and history.


    The pendant was indeed part of the royal collection and then ended up with the Sinir family,


    bing their heirloom.


    The Sinir family!


    “Lysander!” Atticus eximed, his young voice filled with surprise. That was the man their mother had


    offended.


    “Is he our father?” Elowen asked softly.


    Sophia shook her head. “Not sure, if the pendant we found isn’t the one mom had, we may be barking


    up the wrong tree.”


    “Right, if the pendant dad gave mom was just a regr emerald pendant with his name or special


    marking on it, we might be on the wrong track.” Dorian, usually a crybaby, was now stroking his chin


    thoughtfully, looking all serious.


    “The only way is to find Lysander and ask him if he’s our dad: Atticus was always the one toe up


    with solutions when they disagreed.


    “Okay, good idea” Dorian agreed


    Just then, the door was pushed open and Thssa walked in. Atticus quickly closed the tablet and put


    it on the bed, feigning innocence. Thssa saw it andughed, “Atticus, you’re still young. You can’t


    y electronic games with your siblings. It’s bad for your eyes”


    “Mom, I won’t y anymore” Atticus replied obediently.


    Each time he used the tablet to research, Thssa thought he was ying games. He once exined


    that he was doing something important, but she justughed, saying what important things could a kid


    do with a tablet?


    He was worried telling her the truth about his tech savvy might scare her, so he kept it to himself. Now,


    they had decided to find their father, and if he spilled the beans, she would definitely stop them and be


    worried about their safety But they just really wanted to find their dad.


    “Alright,e out and y with toys. It’s almost dinner time.” Thssa’s voice was gentle and warm.


    She never raised her voice at the kids, since they were very understanding


    The kids all came out and started to y with their toys. Thssa sat back at the table, continuing her


    chat with Hertha


    “How was your first day at work?” Hertha asked with concern.


    “It was okay, except for this one guy who’s a real pain in the neck. He keeps harassing me and saying


    disgusting things. I was scared out of my wits.” Thssa said angrily as she mentioned a guy named


    John. She fanned herself, trying to calm down.


    “Oh my, I thought the Sinr group had more ss than this.” Hertha was shocked.


    The Sinir group is a big corporation, and you’d expect everyone there to be top–notch. Who knew


    they’d have people like this?”


    “No matter where you are, people are a mixed bag. Some people might seem nice on the outside, but


    who knows what they’re hiding inside?” Thssa usually had a positive outlook, but she knew to stay


    alert. She’d have to be extra careful at the office.


    “Yes, keeping yourself safe means keeping your family safe. Be careful” Hertha agreed.


    The next morning was gloomy The sky was overcast, looking like it would rain any moment.


    Thssa didn’t like this kind of weather, but she still had to go to work. She hailed a cab and headed to


    the office.


    She waste yesterday, so she didn’t manage to clean the top floor before the president started his


    day. Today, she came in really early, and boy, she cleaned like a whirlwind. By 9 am, she was done


    with the top floor. She hit the elevator button, ready to head down to the 10th floor for a breather.


    Unbeknownst to her, Faye slithered out of the secretary’s office, her eyes like storm clouds, glowering


    at her retreating figure.


    This Thssa, in just one day, had David wrapped around her little finger and even got John sacked.


    She really had underestimated her. This woman was slick. How else would she have Mr. Sinir hung


    up on her?

    Thssa had a bad feeling, and she turned around to face the source of her unease, only to find no


    one there Maybe it was just her imagination. Shaking her head, Thssa stepped into the elevator, the


    gloomy weather always made her feel all kinds of h


    As she settled into a chair on the 10th floor, a shrill voice pierced the silence of the break room Evelyn,


    you get your ass out here right now!


    Thssa shot up, a woman with a pinched face and skinny figure stormed in, fuming


    Feeling a little panicked. Thssa asked. “Ma am, can I help you with something?”


    Evelyn that bitch Couldn’t snag my husband John, so she had someone break his legs I wont rest until


    I give her a taste of her own medicina, the woman bellowed, her eyes popping out of her skull


    Thssa was dumbfounded When had she made a move on John? And when had she broken his


    legs?


    “Evelyn, go tidy up the conference room The cleaning department head walked in and instructed her


    “So you’re Evelyn I’m gonna whoop your ass “The woman’s face twisted with rage as she raised her


    hand and lunged at Thssa
