Chapter 652


    There was only one umbre. Ethan held it up, Thssa walked in the middle, and Leopold huddled


    close to her, pressing in to avoid the rain.


    Since Thssa and Leopold walked shoulder-to-shoulder, their bodies brushed against each other.


    Thssa’s breath hitched, and her gaze involuntarily slid to the side, meeting Leopold’s hopeful yet


    depressed eyes. She felt a chill run down her spine, and her heart stuttered.


    She quickly averted her gaze. She was too scared to look again.


    “What did you see?” Leopold’s voice was as smooth as velvet. Creating a mncholic sweetness in


    the damp, rainy air.


    “I didn’t see anything.” Thssa replied quietly, still looking straight ahead.


    “Leopold,e over here. I have an extra umbre. It’s ridiculous for all three of us to be crammed


    under one.” Zephyr came over and handed Leopold an umbre as his hawk-like gaze sternly


    scrutinized Thssa.


    The look he gave her was filled with hostility, making Thssa’s heart skip and jump in fear. She


    understood that Zephyr wasn’t fond of her.


    She didn’t say anything and just continued walking with Ethan.


    Leopold reluctantly took the umbre from Zephyr and watched Thssa walk away with a lost and


    saddened expression on his face.


    The rain was falling lightly, wetting his thick eyebrows. The raindrops slid down hisshes, finally


    rain ended.


    Ethan led Thssa to his car and opened the door for her. Just as she was about to get in, a hand


    suddenly pressed against the door, closing it and blocking her from entering.


    As she looked up in surprise, Thssa saw Lysander’s icy expression, and her breath involuntarily


    hitched.


    “My car is over there. Get in.” Lysander’s voice was low and brooding, leaving her no room for


    discussion.


    There were many people attending the funeral who hadn’t left yet, and many eyes were watching them


    from the parking lot. Thssa didn’t want to get into his car.


    “I have to get back to work. Ethan’s car is more convenient.” Thssa exined.


    Lysander’s gaze shifted to Ethan..


    “I have business to attend to. I can’t take you. Ride with Lysander.” Ethan quickly got into his car and


    drove off.


    Thssa was left speechless.


    What a jerk! Was this how a good boss treated his employees?


    Thssa watched Ethan’s car disappear in frustration. She was finding him more and more annoying


    by the day. She turned around, only to meet Lysander’s deep, brooding


    gaze.


    His presence was overwhelming.


    Feeling her breath quicken, she had no choice but to quietly head towards Lysander’s car.


    As she got in, Lysander climbed in next to her. The backseat area of the car felt even more confined.


    Thssa shifted to the side unconsciously, trying to put some distance between them.


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    Lysander’s gaze was intense, and the partition in the car came down, separating the front and back


    seats.


    A wave of panic washed over Thssa.


    “I’m worried there’s not enough room.” She said weakly.


    “Is my butt that big?” Lysander retorted, his voice deep and maic.


    This was an unexpectedly funnyment from him that carried an inexplicable force. Thssa felt like


    “No, it’s not that. My butt is big and takes up a lot of space.” Thssa quickly corrected herself, not


    wanting him to think she was judging him.
