Chapter 1038
Lysander''s car was roaring towards the Star Harbor Vi. He was only three minutes away from the

destination.
Suddenly, the sky was split by the thunderous roar of ne des slicing through the air.
ncing up, Lysander caught sight of a sleek ck ne ascending higher, heading towards the
distant horizon.
His grip on the steering wheel tightened, his foot mmed down on the elerator. Like an arrow
released from its bow, he sped into the vi''s courtyard. The yard was barren, devoid of trees and
greenery, surrounded by a small path that circled a patch of bare, yellow earth.
The vi itself was plunged into darkness. The gate sealed shut.
Clearly, no one was home.
It was in that escaping ne that Thssa and the children had been sitting.
Lysander clenched his teeth in fury, his sharp features as cold and hard as carved stone.
"Damn it!" he cursed. His breath was ragged with anger as he pounded the steering wheel.
The car responded with a sharp “beep” of the horn, a sound that seemed almost like a cry of pain.
His eyes burned with barely contained rage as he stared at the closed gate, then he whipped out his
phone and dialed David.
"Get a chopper to Star Harbor Vi, and I need ten of our best tech guys here. Hack into the
surveince and track the ne. I want Thssa found today!" Lysander barked his orders, his voice
icy withmand.
David paused for a moment. He was shocked by the news that Thssa had fled again right under
Lysander''s watchful eye. He couldn''t help but admire her audacity.
"Right away." David replied, confirming his understanding of the urgency before hanging up and
springing into action.
Back on the ne, Callum was controlling the ne. Thssa, Evelyn, and the four children, were
seating behind him.
The children, experiencing their first ne ride, were as curious and delighted as a bunch of yful
monkeys. They were looking around and touching everything in sight.
"Mom, flying is so much fun! Can we please go again?" Dorian asked Thssa, his face beaming with
joy.
Thssa''s lips curved into a gentle smile at the sight of her son''s innocent happiness. "If we get the
chance, we will." she promised.
"Mom, does this chopper belong to Callum? Does Dad have one too?" Elowen asked, her head tilted in
curiosity.
The thought of Lysander brought a heavy sense of dread upon Thssa.
Her smile faded slightly as she answered Elowen''s question, "Your father has a ne too."
She remembered riding in Lysander''s private jet before.
"Yay, Dad has a ne too! He''s amazing!" Elowen''s dimples deepened with her bright smile, her little
face radiating pure delight.
"Mom, where are we going?" Sophia always had a knack for asking the most crucial questions.
Thssa wasn''t sure herself; the escape had been so abrupt that she hadn''t even nned a
destination.
Looking towards the cockpit, she asked Callum, "Where are we going?"
"To the airport." Callum replied. "Lysander can easily find us if we stay in the country. We need to get
abroad."
Lysander''s reach was extensive within the country, and they would never be free of his grasp here. But
abroad, his power would be significantly diminished.
"Oh, okay." Thssa acknowledged, dismissing the topic.
But Atticus picked up on their conversation. His mother was trying to flee with them, and she didn''t
want his father to find them. Were his parents separating for good?
Regardless, he was resolute in his decision to stand by his mother''s side. That was for sure.
It wasn''t long before the ne touched down on the expansive tarmac of the airport.
Thssa disembarked with the children and Evelyn. But rather than ushering them onto amercial
flight, Callum''s first move was to make a call.
"Can you wipe the surveince footage of Starhaven between ten and ten-twenty? Is it doable?"
Callum spoke into the phone with urgency.
