Chapter 1558


    Lysander suddenly spoke.


    Thssa paused, processing Lysander''s response to her earlier query. Was it meant as an exnation?


    Rosalind didn''t live in the Royal Estates, so what did Lysander mean by saying there were other women there besides her?


    It wasn''t until she noticed a maid waiting quietly to the side that Thssa realized what Lysander meant by ‘other women''—he was probably referring


    to the maids.


    She was genuinely surprised to learn that Rosalind didn''t share a residence with Lysander.


    "Oh." Thssa murmured, her voice trailing off as she continued to eat the shrimp Lysander had peeled and dipped in sauce for her, cing it into


    her bow!


    Lysander remained silent, diligently peeling shrimp after shrimp, all of which he ced in Thssa''s bowl.


    To mask the tense and awkward atmosphere of dining with Lysander, Thssa kept stuffing shrimp into her mouth


    She ate as many as Lysander peeled.


    Soan, the table was cluttered with shrimp shells, and the te was emptied


    Feeling overwhelmingly full and unable to take ancther bite, Thssa suddenly stood up and said, "Mr. Sinir, I''m stuffed. Thank you for the meal,


    but I... I should be heading out..."


    "Uh-huh." Lysander''s voice was a low murmur, not making any attempt to stop Thssa from leaving.


    With his permission, Thssa hurried out.


    She felt like she would burst if she ate any more.


    Was Lysander doing this on purpose? Peeling a whole table''s worth of shrimp for her alone to eat, without touching any himself—was this his way of


    getting back at her?


    After Susan failed to eliminate her, was Lysander now trying to stuff her to death to remove the thorn in Rosalind''s side?Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    The thought alone made Thssa shiver with dread, quickening her pace to leave.


    Expecting to have to walk and hail a.


    cab, Thatassa was surprised wher


    the driver, Mike, approached her''in


    the yard, saying, "Ms. Everhart, get


    in I''l drive you home." Content

    "Does Lysander know about this?" Thssa hesitated, not wanting Mike to get into trouble.


    "He knows. Please, get in," Mike replied


    So, Lysander had allowed Mike to drive her home?


    Not having to walk and hail a cab was definitely a plus. Without further hesitation, Thssa opened the car door and got in.


    Lysander sat by the dining table, his gaze fixed on the door, listening to the sound of the car engine starting up and fading into the distance


    His jaw was clenched tight.


    When he had woken up, Zephyr told


    him tha Thssa had distanced


    herself from him, fearing she would?


    be dragged down by his condition as


    a conyatose patient. Deep down; he


    refused to believe Thssa was that


    kind of person.

    Yet, seeing how close she and Callum appeared, he feltpelled to consider Zephyr''s words, feeling both disappointed and angry with Thssa


    However, uponearning that


    Thssa and-Callum weren''t


    involved remantically, and that it >


    was Thatassa who had sought ol out


    Dr. Funke to treat him, and had


    taker care of him for three years, a


    sireng hope surged within him.


    As long as Thssa cared about him and was willing to stay by his side, he was ready to ovee any obstacle to marry her.


    His decision to bring her home was to understand her true feelings.


    Yet, she had said that taking care of him and finding a doctor was merely her way of repaying a debt of gratitude,


    Now that he was awake, she considered her debt repaid, and they owed nothing more to each other.


    Yes, they owed nothing more to each other, a sentiment she had expressed three years ago.
