    “What happened between you and Lysander at Sapphire Skyline?” Hertha remembered what ric


    had said and gave Thssa a look full of curiosity.


    Just thinking about the close rtionship between Thssa and Lysander that ric had implied made


    her excited. She was dying to know the truth.


    Thssa’s face turned a deep shade of red. “Keep your eyes on the road and quit being nosy.”


    “Come on, tell me, I’m your best friend. Whats the harm in telling?” Hertha’s curiosity was piqued. She


    was eager to know about Thssa and Lysander.


    Thssa was extremely embarrassed, “That night, I was working as a waitress at Sapphire Skyline.


    riv ordered some femalepany, and I was sent to serve them. However, Lysander mistook me


    for one of thedies they ordered. I exined that I was just a waitress, not the kind of worker they


    were expecting, and left the room. Nothing happened between us.”


    Thssa put extra emphasis on thest sentence.


    “Are you sure nothing happened? ric just called you Lysander’s woman, and he didn’t deny it.”


    Hertha’s mind was racing, she was turning into a detective.


    Thssa was taken aback, she also remembered Lysander’s demeanor


    He didn’t deny that she was his woman and even defended her against ric’s badmouthing.


    Why would he do that?


    Did Lysander have feelings for her?


    No way!

    “How should I know what he’s thinking? I have nothing to do with him. Who are you going to believe,


    him or me?” Thssa insisted, not wanting to be linked to Lysander without reason.


    “I believe you… I believe you.” Hertha quickly responded.


    “Wait, you said ric was the one who ordered femalepany that night?” Hertha’s focus shifted to


    ric, catching the important point from Thssa’s story.


    “Mm-hmm. Thssa responded nonchntly.


    She didn’t want to paint too clear a picture of the scene, fearing it might upset Hertha.


    In reality, of the four men, ric was the one who enjoyed femalepany the most. He was always


    surrounded by women. He was a genuine yboy.


    Seemed like all four of them were party animals.


    Lysander was no exception.


    Hertha’s smile froze on her face; she stopped talking and focused on driving.


    After dropping off the car at the car repair shop, Hertha hailed a cab. “Let’s go shopping We’ll pick up


    the car after we’re done. Perfect timing”


    “Alright.” Thssa agreed, they both had the time, and she needed to buy clothes for the kids.


    By the time they finished shopping, it was already past eight in the evening.


    Thssa bought clothes and form for the kids and a set of clothes each for Astrid and her mother.


    Her $800 was almost all gone.


    Rent was due in a few days, which put a lot of pressure on Thssa.
