Chapter 881
Payton was heartbroken and baffled, unable toprehend why Leopold had chosen such a path.
His death had left the deepest wound on his own family.
After Leopold was gone, Amelia had begged Lysander on her knees not to expose Leopold’s errors in
the bombing incident. She''d pleaded that he preserve Leopold’sst shred of dignity.
Lysander, swallowing his own sorrow, had agreed. He’d announced to the press that the ident had
been the result of apse in judgement by Leossa Electronics, a subsidiary of the Sinir Group.
Zephyr hadn’t objected to Lysander’s approach.
All Lysander had hoped for was that Leopold would have the courage to admit his mistakes so that the
Sinir family could help him resolve the issue.
Who could have predicted that Leopold would rather take his own life than confess that he''d nned
the whole incident?
Lysander was heartbroken and tortured.
“You!” Amelia’s face changed instantly when Payton brought up the subject. She shot him a sharp
re, grinding her teeth as she spoke. “Shut up, Payton. Don’t ever talk about this again. Leopold is
dead! You show no sympathy for him, always tarnishing his name! Are you really his father?”
Full of anger and sorrow, Amelia stormed off the party after her harsh words, leaving Payton with a
heavy sigh. As a businessman approached with a donation, Payton quickly adjusted his demeanor to
greet him.
Zephyr had called Lysander to the conference room.
Zephyr sat in his chair, the weariness evident in his eyes as Lysander took a seat next to him.
“I know you insisted on checking the surveince footage to prove Thssa’s innocence. You didn’t
even know the full story, and were you so sure that the bracelet wasn''t stolen by Thssa?”
Zephyr could see the protective streak Lysander had for Thssa.
He feared that Lysander was falling for Thssa, just like his father had fallen for a woman he
shouldn''t have loved. He was afraid that Thssa might be a person of questionable character.
What would be the consequences of such love?
Zephyr didn''t dare to imagine.

“I had my suspicions about her stealing before, but the reality is, even in her poverty, she hasn’t stolen
anything,” Lysander calmly responded to Zephyr.
First, there was Faye, who had framed Thssa for stealing ns to sell to otherpanies, and then
Isabe, who had used Thssa of stealing the dragon pendant.
Indeed, Lysander had initially suspected Thssa, thinking that she might be involved.
But the truth had proven that Thssa had never stolen anything. She had been framed all along.
Why would she return the money to him, if she was interested in ill-gotten wealth? Even when he
refused to ept it, she had used David to ensure the money made its way back to the Sinir Group.
Faced with such a sum, she had never shown any desire to possess it. Would she risk everything for a
bracelet worth less than $100 million dors?
It was Thssa''s integrity that made Lysander believe that she wasn''t the thief.
Zephyr''s heart sank with Lysander''s resolute response. He had a bad feeling about where this was
heading.
“Lysander, tell me truthfully, do you have feelings for Thssa?” This time, Zephyr asked directly.
