Chapter 1474
Rosalind was about to stand up and leave when Joshua said, “Your ss isn’t until eight, and it’s
only six now. Stay home and rest. I’ll step out.”
With that, he cast a worried nce towards Matilda and exited the living room, tactfully leaving the
space for Rosalind and her.
“Rosalind, let your dad go out. You stay home and get an extra hour of rest,” Matilda said as she
approached, wrapping her arm around Rosalind’s with a mother’s tender concern.
When Rosalind was born, Joshua was over the moon with his daughter. And because she was as
beautiful and charming as a picture, she quickly became the darling of the Whitman family.
Matilda also adored her daughter, thinking of her as a delicate little marshmallow, so endearing that
she longed to give her the very best the world had to offer.
Rosalind looked at Matilda with her intelligent, pleading eyes. “Do you really think you can convince
Dad to help me win over Lysander?”
“Absolutely, don’t you worry about your stubborn old dad. A little pillow talk tonight and he’lle
around. Plus, with Zephyr on our side, it’s a sure thing. Zephyr wouldn’t have called me to share the
news that Lysander will wake up within two months if he didn’t think it was certain,” Matilda assured
her with confidence.
Originally, Rosalind had been studying abroad, where Matilda had looked after her, asionally
flying back to Starhaven to see Joshua. It had been a year of constant travel.
Sending Rosalind abroad was Matilda’s way of abandoning any hopes for an alliance with the
Sinir family through marriage. With Lysander in aa for three years, it was likely he’d be
incapacitated for life. Matilda would never allow her daughter to marry a man who was practically a
living ghost, and Rosalind herself had no desire for such a marriage.
So after two years of waiting in Starhaven with no change in Lysander’s condition, Matilda had
arranged for Rosalind to study abroad.
It was an escape from the proposed marriage to the Sinir family.
Then Zephyr called Matilda with the news of a doctor, a miracle worker who personally guaranteed
that Lysander would awaken within two months.
Upon hearing that Lysander would soon recover, Matilda realized that Rosalind could be Mrs.
Sinir, a position just shy of royalty! She hastily arranged for Rosalind to drop her international
studies, transferred her courses back home, and rushed back to Starhaven.
The lunch invitation for Thssa was also a strategic move, a subtle hint to let her know that
Rosalind was the one intended for Lysander.
“Yeah, with Zephyr backing us, we can’t lose,” Rosalind nodded, fully trusting her mother’s words.
...
That evening.
After giving Lysander his bath and speaking to him for an hour, Thssa went over to herputer
to work on her design sketches.
Throughout the three years of caring for Lysander, Thssa had kept herself busy. She had
pursued graduate studies at Starhaven College, and given her unique circumstances, she applied
to study remotely, only going to the campus for exams.
Thssa took her studies seriously, always ranking among the top of her ss, and the school
turned a blind eye to her at-home learning arrangement.

She had continued her major in jewelry design, a passion she had followed since her
undergraduate days.
In college, she had majored in jewelry design and minored in secretarial studies. However, she had
dropped out beforepleting her degree.
Since then, her career had been aligned with her minor, working as a secretary. Jewelry design
positions often required formal qualifications, which shecked without a college diploma, so she
stuck to secretarial work.
But Thssa’s true love was always jewelry design.
So, for her master''s, she chose to dive back into the world of jewelry design.
She enjoyed designing, and on the side, it allowed her to take on frence work online, earning
some extra cash for herself.
