Chapter 24


    It became easy to handle now. Only, she felt a pang of regret for missing out on a golden chance to fire


    Thssa. She quicklyposed herself and politely said to the police, “Sir, please follow me. Evelyn is


    right over here”


    In the office. Thssa was halfway through tidying up, deeply troubled about her four children. She


    called Evelyn, “Mom, the kids showed up at my workce just now. Are you around?” Her biggest fear


    was the kids running lost.


    “I found them! These little rascals came back to me on their own! I just brought them out for some fresh


    air and to broaden their horizons, but these little devils ran off and nearly scared me half to death! What


    did I do to deserve this kind of torture! Evelyn roared, her voice high pitched and filled with panic from


    crying


    Thssa held the phone a bit further from her ear, else she’d be deafened by the yelling. Though


    Evelyn wasining, Thssa caught the main point -the kids were back with her. That was a


    relief.


    “Mom, thanks, we all love you. Take good care of the little ones, I’ll bring some treats home after work,


    Thssa said softly, trying to soothe Evelyn.


    At that moment, the office door was opened and several people walked in. Thssa spun around in


    rm and saw Faye and two police officers at the door. She hurriedly said into the phone, “Mom, I’ve


    got some stuff to deal with now, I’ll talk to youter.” And with that, she hung up and quickly pocketed


    her phone.


    Seeing Thssa’s reaction, Faye’s anger and hostility grew. She had heard Thssa’s phone call


    when she walked in. Those four children were definitely Thssa’s! And one of them was Mr. Sinir’s


    child!


    Faye felt like she was on the verge of a breakdown from jealousy, but she had to keep her calm and


    deal with the situation in a polite manner.


    “Evelyn, you’ve stirred up trouble. You’ll have to sort it out at the police station, despite her best efforts


    to remainposed, Faye’s tone was sharp and noticeably hostile when she spoke to Thssa.


    Thssa gave Faye a slight nod in acknowledgment. She walked up to the police officers and said,

    “Could you please wait a moment? I haven’t found David yet. I’ll get his contact info and give him a


    call.


    “Sure.”


    Thssa was about to head out to the Human Resources Department to get David’s contact info, but


    then she paused. Faye was Lysander’s secretary so she should have David’s number. Why go through


    all that trouble? She politely asked Faye, “Faye, could you please give me David’s number? I need to


    give


    him a call.”


    Faye was reluctant. She was wishing Thssa would end up in jail, why would she want to give her


    David’s number to help prove her innocence? But with the police standing there, if she refused, it would


    be too obvious. A CEO’s secretary not having the assistant’s phone number would be totally


    uneptable.


    Suppressing her resentment, Faye gave Thssa the number.


    Thanks,” Thssa expressed her gratitude and dialed the number.


    After two rings, the call was picked up and a formal male voice came through, “Hello, this is David.


    Who am I speaking to?”


    “David, this is Evelyn. I need your help with something.” Thssa spoke with respect and courtesy.


    At that moment, David was with Lysander. The volume on his phone was loud enough for the


    conversation to be heard by those nearby.


    Lysander’s eyes showed a flicker of thought before he turned to David.
