Evelyn shivered, her eyes nervously trailing Lysander''s back. Her heart was a jumbled mess of uncertainty,pletely in the


    dark about what Lysander was actually thinking.


    David didn''t dare to even breathe too loudly either.


    He had just returned from a trip to Afrnd, and thest thing he needed was to get caught up in the storm because of whatever


    Evelyn had stirred up. That would be utterly unfair to him.


    Lysander had always had a mixed feeling for Thssa. He loved her deeply, but also hated her because she was the daughter


    of Bruce.


    But now, Evelyn dropped a bombshell — Thssa isn''t Bruce''s daughter!


    Even to an outsider like David, this revtion sent a thrill through his veins. As for Lysander, wouldn''t hearing this news send him


    over the edge?


    But David wasn''t sure if Lysander was more excited or enraged by the news.


    Thssa had been ying a dangerous game, keeping this truth from Lysander all this time.


    After years as Lysander''s right-hand man, David knew his boss well. Lysander hated deception the most.


    And the one deceiving him was Thssa, about something so significant.


    “Lysander, | told you this because | want you to know that Thssa shouldn''t bear the brunt of your hatred for Bruce. She''s truly


    innocent." Evelyn''s voice trembled, her words hanging in the air without a response from Lysander.


    "Are you done?" Lysander''s voice was icy, his deep tones suddenly cutting through the silence.


    It wasn''t loud, but it was enough to freeze Evelyn in ce, her heart pounding even harder.


    "Y-Yes..." Evelyn stammered.


    If she hadn''t received that call from Bruce, she wouldn’t have known he had been arrested — thanks to Lysander.


    She had rushed over to Lysander out of fear for Thssa getting entangled in Bruce''s mess, hoping to convince Lysander not to


    take out his anger on Thssa.


    She had expected Lysander to react strongly to the news, but he hadn''t said a word.


    What was Lysander thinking? The man was an enigma.


    “Keep your eyes on the road!" Lysander''s sternmand snapped the tension in the car even tighter.


    David jolted and quickly refocused, "Yes, of course."


    He drove with renewed concentration, and soon, they pulled up in front of the police station.


    Lysander got out, and David followed.


    Seeing the police station, Evelyn''s entire body shook with fear. She had onlye to tell Lysander the truth, and now he brought


    her here?


    Was he going to throw her in jail, too?


    No, she couldn''t go to jail.


    Evelyn was a woman of humble beginnings. She was normally brave and fearless, but faced with a crisis, she crumbled.

    She was terrified, wailing and begging at that time.


    Now, with Bruce already in custody, and Lysander taking her to the station, was she next for the cell?


    Evelyn sat in the car, unwilling to move.


    Lysander had already walked towards the station.

    She pushed the car door open and stumbled out, ready to flee.


    But David reached out, steadying her by the elbow.
