Chapter 1041


    After hacking through awork of surveince systems with the help of ten ace programmers,


    Lysander had finally traced the thunderous noise that had set him on this frantic chase to Starhaven


    Airport.


    He descended upon the airport with his crew, urgency etched in every line of their bodies as they


    scanned the throngs of travelers with relentless precision.


    The airport buzzed with tension as Lysander''s team moved through the crowds. Their presence cast a


    shadow of unease over the passengers. In a mere ten minutes, they had vetted every transient, yet


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    there was no sign of Thssa or the children.


    Lysander''s chiseled features were set in a mask of icy determination. The heat of his anger simmering


    beneath the surface, threatening to erupt like a volcano and consume everything in its path.


    "Check all the flights that took off in thest twenty minutes!" hemanded coldly.


    The information came back quickly.


    Three nes had departed in that critical window; one headed to Merid Country, another to Yonder


    Country, and thest one to Weston Country.


    "Contact the pilots. Instruct them to be on the lookout for any passengers traveling with quadruplets


    and report back immediately!" Lysander ordered.


    David acknowledged themand and hurried off to make it happen.


    Meanwhile, high above the grounded chaos, Thssa gazed out the airne window and basked in


    the unfamiliar sensation of relief. She was finally free, free to live a simple and liberated life away from


    it all.


    The children had only ever known the steady chug of a train as their most advanced form of travel.


    The ne ride had been a delight, but now, soaring even higher in amercial jet, they were


    Eager little faces jostled for a peek out the window, marveling at the clouds and the blue sky they were


    used to admiring from below. Now, they were flying above them, looking down upon fluffy white


    "The sun looks like a fried egg on top of the clouds! It''s so fun!" Elowen eximed, her small hands


    pressed against the ss in awe.


    "Where? Let me see. I want to look too!" Dorian squeezed in beside his sibling, eager to catch a


    glimpse of the whimsical scene Elowen described.


    Thssa wrapped her arms around her children, her smile mirroring their joy. Their wonder and


    happiness were hers to share, as she too experienced the novelty of flying.


    "Excuse me, ma''am, what would you like for your meal? We have pasta, boxed lunches, and fruits." the


    flight attendant asked, pushing the cart down the aisle with a practiced smile.


    Thssa zoomed back to the reality and settled the children back into their seats.


    "How much for each?" she asked, the question spilling out before she could catch it.


    "Everything isplimentary on board, ma''am. We aim to serve our passengers with the utmost care."


    the flight attendant responded with a courteous and warm smile.


    Thssa blushed slightly, feeling a tad embarrassed. Her had only been on trains, where you had to


    pay for your meals.


    "I''ll take five boxed lunches, please. Thank you," Thssa said, recovering herposure.


    "Five?" The attendant nced at the four children seated around Thssa with mild curiosity. "Are all


    of these children yours?"


    "Yes." Thssa replied without hesitation.


    "They look about the same age. They''re all yours?" the attendant inquired further.


    "They''re quadruplets." Thssa exined.


    "Quadruplets? That''s quite rare, and they''re adorable." the flight attendant remarked with a genuinely


    warm and affectionate smile at the children.
