Chapter 713
The stern and icy demeanor that she had envisioned Lysander to have when disciplining the children
was nowhere to be seen.
When Lysander lifted his gaze towards the door and caught sight of Thssa’s petite figure, his eyes
flickered slightly.
Just at that moment, the little ones seated on the floor turned their heads as their childish eyes lit up at
the sight of Thssa.
“Mommy!”
“Mommy!”
“Mommy!”
“Mommy!”
The chorus of adorable voices rang out. Their tiny hands propped themselves up from the floor as they
quickly stood up.
One by one, they scurried towards Thssa as their little legs iled in the wind.
Their joyful scampering resembled that of lively little birds, instantly soothing Thssa’s worried heart.
Thssa couldn’t help but smile. She crouched down to tenderly greet her little angels.
All four children simultaneously jumped into Thssa’s arms. The impact caused her to lose bnce,
and they all tumbled to the floor.
The lightest of them all, Sophia, rolled around like a little rubber ball, stopping only after two rolls. She
warm the heart of any cold man.
Thssa sat up, taking Elowen, who was closest to her, into her arms. She nted a big kiss on
Elowen’s chubby little face as the scent of milk filled her nostrils. “Sweetie, you smell so good.”
Thssa said happily.
“E! Mommy, you stink.” Elowen pouted andined.
“Do I?” Thssa sniffed herself as she giggled. “Mommy had some wine and didn’t take a bath, so I
smell like alcohol.”
Thssa stood Elowen up. “Mommy is going to take a bath, and then we can y.”
As she was about to head upstairs, she felt a pair of intense eyes on her, as if they were trying to see
right through her.
Thssa turned to look at Lysander, meeting his deep, ocean-like gaze.
She felt a cold shiver run through her.
Thssa felt a surge of anger as she remembered what Fitch had told her.
Fueled by the courage that alcohol induced, Thssa limped over to Lysander and scolded him sternly.
“You cannot be harsh with the children anymore, understand? Or else I… I won’t be nice to you! I’ve
raised them this far, and I’ve never been harsh with them!”
Oh my, Ms. Everhart was actually pointing fingers and lecturing Lysander.
This was the first time someone had dared to raise their voice at him.

Fitch watched from the sidelines. His heart was pounding, and a cold sweat was breaking out on his
forehead.
Lysander’s deep, icy gaze was fixed on Thssa. She was standing not too far from him, swaying
slightly. Her face was flushed red due to the alcohol, adding an irresistible allure to her already beautiful
face.
Having said her piece, Thssa noticed Lysander’s chilling aura and couldn’t help but shrink back. The
slew of rebukes she had prepared for him on her way here all went to waste. She didn’t have the
courage to voice them out.
“Alright, I was just reminding you. I’m going to go take a bath now.” Thssa quickly changed the topic,
feeling a little awkward, and turned to walk toward the stairs.

Lysander’s deep gaze followed her retreating figure. She was slightly staggering, a sight that was
etched into his mind.
He started to feel an odd heat rushing through his body, and his gaze shifted. He stood up, took a few
strides towards her, and grasped her hand.
“Eh?” Before Thssa could react, he was already leading her upstairs.
They headed straight to the master bedroom. He pushed open the bathroom door and guided Thssa
in. After closing the door behind them, Lysander turned her around and pressed her against the frosted
ss door. His tall, muscr body was closing in, and his strong, masculine scent was enveloping her
as his towering figure cast a shadow over her.
Thssa’s heart was pounding.
Lysander lifted her chin with his index finger. His voice was low and husky as he teasingly asked, “How
exactly do you n on not being nice to me, hm?
