Chapter 1077
Evelyn gazed at Thssa''s smiling face with a mixture of affection and concern. With a heavy sigh, she
brushed away a tear from the corner of her eye. "Oh, honey, you’re so strong for carrying another one.
But sometimes, being strong isn''t all it''s cracked up to be. It''s you who bears the brunt of it all."
The love in Evelyn''s eyes was the kind that only a mother could have for her daughter - a love that
ached with empathy for the hardships her child endured.
While others might rejoice at the prospect of a new addition to the family, only a mother could truly
grasp the suffering and struggle that mighte with it.
Thssa was expecting again, unwed, with four little ones already at home and no formalmitment
from Lysander. Now, being pregnant again, would he marry her out of obligation to the child she was
carrying?
Evelyn hoped more than anything that Thssa would secure her ce and not be left vulnerable,
subject to the whims of fate.
Thssa recognized that her mother''s concerns were rooted in profound love. She grasped Evelyn’s
hand in hers, squeezing gently in reassurance. "Mom, let''s set aside any other worries for now. Our
primary focus should be on ensuring the baby’s health and safety. Regardless of everything else, this
little one is my treasure. As a mother, my role is to love them fiercely. All other concerns don’t apply to
them. They''re innocent in all this."
She understood Evelyn''s fears about hercking status despite her growing family, as well as the risks
involved in childbirth.
In that moment, a sense offort and happiness filled her. She, too, was someone''s child, loved and
cared for by a mother.
Thssa was grateful that she had rushed home that fateful day to save Evelyn. Without that, she
would have been motherless.
Evelyn knew her daughter''s love for the children was boundless. No amount of talking would change
Thssa''s mind; she would carry this child to term.
Evelyn yfully scolded her, "The baby isn''t even born yet, and you''re already spoiling them. Who
knows how you''ll dote on them once they''re here!"
"Oh,e on, Evelyn. Look at Atticus, Dorian, Elowen, and Sophia. They''re not spoiled in the least.
Such sweet, well-mannered little darlings," Hertha chimed in, standing up straight after patting
Thssa''s belly.
"They are well-mannered because I raised them," Evelyn dered with a hint of pride.
With sudden seriousness, Evelyn turned to Thssa. "You''re carrying Lysander''s child again. You need
to think about your future, as well as the kids''. Consider finding a way to marry Lysander. It would be
best for you and the little ones."
It was an old tune, Evelyn always thinking about Thssa settling down, especially with Lysander, the
father of her children.
A marriage would give the kids a stable home.

Moreover, with Lysander''s wealth rivaling that of a small kingdom, Thssa wouldn''t have to worry
about life''s trials and tribtions anymore.
Thssa''s smile stiffened at the urgency in Evelyn''s eyes, unsure of how to respond.
Lysander''s trust in her had waned, even doubting the paternity of the unborn child.
The idea of marrying him seemed like a distant dream; even the prospect of getting along well had
turned into an extravagant wish.
Recognizing her friend’s unease, Hertha, Thssa''s closest confidant, swiftly stepped in. "Thssa
needs to prioritize her health at the moment; she''s still in a delicate state. Once she''s more stable, she
can start making ns for the future. Isn’t that right, Thssa?"
Snapping back to the moment, Thssa realized Hertha was trying to ease Evelyn''s worries. Her smile
returned, and she reassured her mother, "Exactly, Mom. Don’t fret. Once the baby is born, I''ll let you
take the reins again. Nobody raises sweet and sensible kids better than you do."
Evelyn chuckled, yfully tapping Thssa’s forehead with her finger. "You little rascal, always
knowing just what to say to cheer me up."
