Chapter 1410


    When Hertha dropped that bombshell, Thssa''s grip on the steering wheel tightened so sharply it might have squeaked.


    She spared a quick nce at Hertha, who was lounging in the passenger seat, and a wry smile yed at the corners of her


    mouth. "What''s wrong with me? My kids have a dad now. Honestly, that''s not so bad."


    Hertha and Thssa were the best of friends, who had weathered storms together. There were hardly any secrets between


    them.


    Which is why they spoke so freely, without holding back.


    And that’s why Hertha didn''t hesitate to sprinkle a little salt on Thssa''s wounds.


    "Yeah, your kids have a dad, but are you any happier now than when you were flying solo? Let''s not even start on whether the


    kids are happier. What about you? Are you happy?"


    Hertha''s big, round eyes fixed on Thssa with concern.


    Once upon a time, when Thssa was a single mom, juggling four kids and as many jobs, life was like spinning tes on sticks.


    But in that bustling household,ughter was the soundtrack to their lives, with the kids'' antics as the main event.


    Since discovering Lysander was the father of her children, Thssa''s days had be a tightrope of tension and fear. She had


    tried to keep the kids under wraps, always dreading the day Lysander would discover their existence and take them away.


    But her worst fears hade true. Lysander had found out and, just as she had dreaded, imed the children.


    Thssa went from being rich in love to the poorest soul around overnight.


    Losing her children was like losing the whole world.


    Hertha could now empathize with that pain.


    Thssa''s hands were steady on the wheel as she threw a sidelong nce at Hertha, who was clearly waiting for a response.


    She knew what Hertha was getting at.


    When her children were taken, she had indeed felt the earth crumble beneath her.


    But now, her perspective had shifted. She felt that her kids being with their dad, and her keeping Lysander in her life, was a


    kindness that fate had granted her—the greatest blessing she could ask for.


    Had she never met Lysander, never known he was the father, sure, she could''ve raised her kids alone. But deep down, each


    child would harbor a profound sense of loss.


    The absence of a father''s love is something that can take a lifetime to heal.


    It''s like her own story. Growing up fatherless, she had longed for that rtionship yet feared it too.


    "No matter what, | have no regrets. Some hardships, once you get through them, lead to spring," Thssa replied to Hertha.
