Chapter 551


    She was definitely tempting me. Lysander thought.


    A ripple coursed through Lysander’s heart, his breath hitching momentarily.


    Realization struck him the next second. What did she think of him?


    Was she attempting to take advantage of him?


    His eyes instantly assumed a frosty demeanor as he turned to gaze at the woman who was so close to


    him. Her eyes were closed; her longshes cast a shadow on her oval face which was flushed from the


    alcohol.


    Her lips were slightly parted, revealing a hint of pearly white teeth, her breath tinged with the scent of


    the wine.


    An invisible temptation.


    Lysander’s throat constricted. “Damn it!”, his gaze darkening as he muttered a curse under his breath.


    With a swift click, he fastened her seat belt, got up, and closed the passenger door.


    As he was about to head towards the driver’s seat, ric came bounding over. His eyes were filled


    with curiosity and confusion.

    “Lysander, why are Hertha’s kids calling you dad? What’s going on?” He asked.


    Lysander threw him a nce, his deep voice ringing out, “Have you lost your brains from hanging out


    with Hertha for too long?”


    With that, he walked over to the driver’s seat, got in the car, started the engine and drove off into the


    night.


    As ric was standing there and staring after the retreating car, confusion etched on his face.


    Suddenly, a realization dawned upon him.


    The quadruplets were Lysander and Thssa’s!


    So Hertha was merely a cover for Thssa to hide her children?


    “Thssa!” At that moment, Hertha finally managed to shake off the bodyguard and ran out.


    She called out, but there was no sign of Lysander and Thssa.


    Looking around, she headed towards ric, asking “Where are Lysander and Thssa?”


    “They’ve driven off with their four kids.” He watched her with his mischievous, long eyes, a hint of


    suspicion rose in his gaze.


    “Lysander brought the kids too? That’s good then. Thssa just wanted to see the kids “Upon hearing


    ric’s words, Hertha’s worry was relieved and she even felt happy for Thssa.


    She had brought Thssa to the bar to take her mind off things just because Thssa was missing her


    children and feeling down.


    Now, things were looking up. Thssa finally got to see her children.


    ric’s mouth curved into a yful smile, “You’re quite the secret keeper, aren’t you? Aren’t you afraid


    of Lysander wiping you out?”


    Hertha realized that ric knew the children were Thssa’s and Lysander’s. He knew that she had


    only imed they were hers to protect Thssa.


    She held her chin up proudly and righteously. “Is it wrong to help my best friend? Besides, it’s


    Lysander’s fault. If he was responsible, would he have left Thssa to raise four kids alone for four


    years?”


    “Keep talking. I’ll record everything. When I have some free time, I’ll let Lysander listen to it. If you can


    still talk tough then. I’ll be impressed.” ric pretended to take out his phone to record


    her.


    Hertha panicked. Without giving much thought, she scurried over and reached for his phone.


    She definitely didn’t dare to provoke that devil. Even talking behind his back required a lot of courage. If


    Lysander heard about this, she would be so screwed.


    “Don’t record it, give me your phone,” Hertha ran forward, reaching out to grab it.


    ric raised his hand out of her reach.


    In her haste, Hertha ran into him.


    Her chest collided with his body, causing her heart to race. She gazed up at ric, her eyes wide.


    ric too, felt the softness of her chest against his.


    His eyes, filled with mischief, met Hertha’s.


    His damn captivating eyes made Hertha’s heart pound uncontrobly.


    She took a few deep breaths, looked up at ric and said, “Now that you know I’m not a mother, can


    you date me?”
