Thssa knew her daughter like the back of her hand. If she was asking that question, she was surely just trying to lift her
spirits.
The worry etched on her face was so apparent, even the kids had taken notice.
Thssa felt a pang in her heart but managed to coax a smile on her face, gently ruffling Elowen’s hair and softly said,
"Mommy''s smiling, see?"
With that, a smile stretched across her lips, reassuring Elowen that she was indeed happy.
"Hooray, Mommy finally smiled!" Elowen cheered, bouncing around in excitement.
“Mommy, you should smile more, and you''re prettiest when you smile,” Dorian said, tilting his little head as he gazed at
Thssa, his voice soft and endearing.
"You''re wise beyond your years, kiddo. Your mommy''s happiest with you all around." Evelyn, standing to the side, felt her eyes
well up with tears. She''d been alone at home for days, feeling lonely and sad.
Now, with the children''spany, her spirits were finally lifting.
“Mommy, let''s go home," Sophia said, reaching out to take Thssa''s hand. She hadn''t seen her for days and missed her
terribly. All she wanted was to go back home with Thssa.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.
"Mom...," Thssa hesitated, ncing at Evelyn helplessly.
The kids had been staying at Royal Estates, Lysander''s vi.
If they went back now and Lysander found out, would he blow his top?
Evelyn, not Thssa, was the one who fretted now. Remembering Lysander''s ruthless ways and his coldness toward Thssa
sent a chill down her spine.
Thssa caught Evelyn''s plea for help in her eyes. She knew all too well the worry about Lysander''s reaction that used to
govern every decision she made.
But now, Lysander probably thought she wanted his head on a tter!
She had nothing left to lose.
Things hade to such a pass. It might be time toy all cards on the table.
With resolve, Thssa tightened her grip on Elowen and Sophia''s hands and dered, "Let''s go. We''re heading home together.
Mommy will cook something delicious for you."
At the promise of a tasty treat from Thssa, the kids’ excitement was palpable, their joy uncontroble.
Seeing Thssa resolved to take the kids home, Evelyn''s heart was heavy with worry.
What would happen when Royal Estates’ staff came to pick up the kids and found them missing? Would theye knocking at
Star Harbor Vi?
But Thssa was adamant, and all Evelyn could do was swallow her fears and follow her daughter''s lead.
Meanwhile, parked unobtrusively on the side of the preschool, a sleek ck Rolls-Royce remained still.
Lysander''s deep-set eyes watched in silence as two adults led four children away.
The setting sun cast long shadows behind them, creating an image of warmth and contentment on the asphalt road.
His gaze was distant and thoughtful.
His driver David asked cautiously, "Mr. Sinir, shall we follow them?"
Lysander''s eyes flickered back to the present, his voice a low rumble, "No, let them go."
The preschool was at a crossroads, with three possible routes for the car to take.
David smoothly guided the car down the road that took the opposite direction from Thssa.

Now, as he saw Thssa leading the children away, he made no move to stop them.

The car glided along the road as Lysander pulled out his phone and dialed his butler, Fitch.
“We won''t need to pick up the kids from preschool for a while," Lysandermanded in his deep voice.
Fitch was surprised, "And when shall we resume the pickups?"
