Chapter 1007
Thssa gently stroked Atticus'' tender little head, her voice tinged with a bittersweet ache as she
consoled him. "Of course, Mommy is your mommy. You will be a good boy and do your homework at
home, and I''ll be back before you know it."
"Okay, mom. Come back soon." Atticus replied, his voice soft and childlike, a tone he reserved only for
moments with Thssa.
"Okay." she promised.
She watched Atticus and the other three kids retreat to their rooms. Then she turned and met
Lysander''s piercing gaze.

She steadied her nerves and asked calmly, "Who are we meeting? I need to know so I can pick out the
right outfit."
"It''s the son of my grandfather''s friend, an international business magnate, Joshua." Lysander
exined.
So, they were meeting the son of Zephyr''s friend, and he was a business tycoon no less.
Since it was Zephyr''s friend''s son, that meant he was of Lysander''s father''s generation — a senior
figure.
Meeting a business magnate required a bnce in dress: not too understated, yet not too shy.
Had Lysander really shown up at the daycare gates today just to take her to aworking mixer?
Thssa suddenly understood why Lysander had been at the school gates.
What she couldn''t fathom was why, if Lysander had no intention of marrying her or giving her any
official status, he would bring her to meet Zephyr''s friend''s son?
Men typically only introduced a woman into their inner circles and introduced her to important family
members only when they weremitted or engaged with future secured, right?
Her current status was awkward, merely the mother of Lysander''s children, neither his girlfriend nor his
fiancée. He had made it clear he''d never marry her.
She was just a tool for his fleshly needs, disposable as soon as he grew tired of her.
With such an insignificant role, why would he taking her to meet such an important senior figure?
Thssa didn’t ask despite her confusion. Questions would only add to her embarrassment.
She had questioned Lysander many times before about whether he intended to marry her and provide
their children aplete family. The answers were always a clear refusal – it was just her delusions
and she would never be weed into the Sinir family.
So, she had learned her lesson, no longer asking such foolish questions.
Thssa searched through the wardrobe on the second floor and chose a designer dress.
The dress was pristine ivory in color with a modest Peter Pan cor and a hem just below the knee.
Although the style was understated and restrained, it was a reputable designer piece.
One couldn''t meet an international business magnate in bargain-basement attire.
With light makeup and her hair elegantly pinned up to reveal her slender neck, Thssa slipped into
her simple white ts.
Her entire demeanor was crisp, graceful, and fresh—a breath of pure elegance.
She descended the stairs to find Lysander waiting on the couch. His deep-set eyes fixed upon her,
watching her approach.
It wasn''t until she was close that he looked away and stood up. His voice was deep as he said, "Let''s
go."
Lysander walked ahead with long strides toward the door, and Thssa took a deep breath before
following.
Truth be told, she wasn''t interested in meeting the son of Zephyr''s friend or attending any cocktail party.
All she wanted was to have Atticus erasing that damning video from Bruce''s possession.
But with Lysander always being around, she hadn''t had the chance to give Atticus Bruce''s phone
number and IP address.
The video in Bruce''s possession needed to be dealt with swiftly and sessfully, with no room for
error. Otherwise, if they spooked him, Bruce could transfer the video elsewhere, making it even harder
to delete.
So, she decided to wait and talk to Atticus once she returned, to avoid anyplications.
