Chapter 1536


    ric quirked an eyebrow, "Do those kids look familiar to you?"


    Thssa''s heart started to race, and she blinked rapidly, scrambling for a n.


    Suddenly, ric''s face brightened with realization, "I''ve got it! I saw those two at the hospital before!”


    Turning to Thssa, he exined, "When Hertha had that car ident and was hospitalized. I bumped into these kids in the elevator. Never thought


    they lived in the same building as Hertha. Last time. it was a nanny with them, but today. it was their mom."


    Though it had been over a month, the young girl''s piercing eyes were unforgettable. They had the same almond shape as his, which made them


    stand out in his memory. He had felt an inexplicable connection to the girl at the time, probably because of their simr eyes, he thought.


    And now, they had crossed paths again.


    Thssa nervously swallowed, forcing a smile, "Oh, so you''ve seen them before..."


    Finding no words to respond, she could only echo his statement. She, too, remembered the awkward encounter between ric and Helena at the


    hospital.


    Phew..


    Since ric believed the young woman was the kids'' mother, he wouldn''t suspect Hertha. Thssa felt a wave of relief.


    Just then, the elevator reached the ground floor. Stepping out, Thssa urged, "Mr. Falconer, it''s gettingte. We should hurry."


    The longer ric stayed, the greater the risk of Hertha''s kids being exposed.


    Now that Ataric was nning to stay


    in the building regrly, running into


    the kids would be inevitable.


    Thgsa feared it was only a matter


    of tine before he discovered


    Hertha’ s secret.

    Poor Hertha.


    True to his gentlemanly nature, ric drove Thssa back to Star Harbor Vi.


    Before she got out of the car, ric suddenly asked, "What exactly happened between you and Lysander?”


    He could tell there was tension between Thssa and Lysander, a clear sign of a falling out.


    During the three years Lysander was


    ina, Tissa had stayed at


    Royal Estates, dedicating herself to>


    his care. ‘She went to great lengths


    to secure treatment from Dr. Funke


    for kysander, meeting even the most


    derfianding of his conditions.


    Now that Lysander was awake, albeit still wheelchair-bound, why did Thssa move out of Royal Estates instead of continuing to care for him?


    What had gone wrong between them?


    ric had witnessed the trials of


    Lysanderar and Thssa’''s :


    rtionship, enduring through the


    toughest times, seemingly onthe


    verge of a happy ending. Why then


    had they separated? Content

    Thssa''s hand froze on the car door handle, ric''s straightforward question weighing heavily on her heart.


    She kept reminding herself that estrangement from Lysander was for the best. trying to appear indifferent. Yet, merely hearing Lysander''s name


    tugged at her heartstrings.


    With a heavy sigh, Thssa looked down, “He and Rosalind are a match made in heaven. I was just passing through. Let''s not talk about me and


    him in that way anymore.”
