Chapter 775


    “The coffee you brew is as good as it always was.” He suddenly looked up and rested his deep and


    affectionate gaze on Thssa.


    Caught in his gentle gaze, Thssa instinctively looked away to avoid eye contact.


    She rested her elbow on her knees, her hands lightly crossed. A hint of a smile tugged on her lips as


    she said, “Yes, the old way of grinding coffee beans and brewing coffee that I learned at school still


    works.”


    She majored in administrative assistance in college, where brewing coffee was part of the curriculum.


    She had studied it diligently.


    Leopold looked into her eyes, his gaze flickering as if reminiscing about the past.


    He then noticed the diamond ne she was wearing around her neck. He had seen it earlier but


    hadn’t paid much attention. Now his eyes suddenly dimmed as he focused on her ne, “Nice


    ne. Is that a gift from someone?”


    Thssa instinctively looked down at the ne around her neck and hurriedly tucked the pendant


    back into her shirt. It had probably fallen out when she bent over.


    “Yes, it was a gift from someone.” Thssa didn’t hide the truth.


    Neither of them mentioned who it was from, but they both knew who it was. The name was unsaid but


    understood.


    A heavy, mncholic mist clouded Leopold’s eyes.

    “Leopold, thank you for exining to Lysander that I was kidnapped by Charlotte.” Thssa’s


    professional smile faded; she spoke earnestly to Leopold.


    Leopold exined to Lysander that she had been kidnapped by Charlotte, and they wouldn’t have


    gotten in touch if he didn’t mean to save her. The video Charlotte sent, which suggested she and


    Leopold had been secretly meeting, wasn’t the truth.


    Lysander had blocked her from seeing their kids. She was like a headless chicken who desperately


    wanted to see her kids but unable

    “Do you know why I told Lysander the truth?” Leopold suddenly asked.


    Thssa looked into his brooding eyes and shook her head. She didn’t know..


    Maybe it was because of their mutual past? Maybe he also didn’t want to see her suffer?


    “I don’t want him to punish you due to the misconception. I will take you back from him openly and


    honorably, not through such misunderstandings!” Leopold’s grim eyes turned resolute.


    Clutching the coffee mug, the veins on the back of his hand were slightly protruding.


    He understood Thssa as well as Lysander.


    Thssa was unwilling to leave Lysander and elope with him because she couldn’t abandon her four


    kids.


    She was always kind-hearted, so how could she bear to leave her four kids behind?

    And Lysander, with a strong desire to possess, had obsessed over Thssa just because they had

    shared a bed five years ago. He wouldn’t easily let go of Thssa.


    If Lysander misunderstood that Thssa and he had something going on, Lysander would certainly


    punish Thssa.


    Denying her the chance to see her kids was like taking half her life.


    Leopold didn’t want Thssa to suffer like this. So, he chose to exin to Lysander where the video


    Charlotte sent came from.


    But this didn’t mean he had given up on the idea of being with Thssa.


    Hearing Leopold’s words, Thssa froze and stared at him; her heart ached at the resolve in his eyes.


    “Leopold, stop being so good to me, please. If you really care about me, fall in love with another


    woman and marry someone else!” Thssa pleaded earnestly.
