Chapter 1581


    Hearing that ric was genuinely interested in her sounded like a punchline to a joke. Digging into ric''s past revealed a parade of almost fifty ex-


    girlfriends - some were instant connections, others took a bit of charm and pursuit from ric''s end. Yet, eventually, they all ended up the same way:


    discarded when the novelty wore off, without so much as a by-your-leave.


    Getting emotionally involved with a notorious yboy like ric was a joke in itself. Knowing this all toc well made her fiercely guard her impulses,


    determined not to recklessly charge forward as she had done three years ago


    Now, with ric and Georgia on the outs, and him throwing tantrums at home, he suddenly decided to pursue her. If he got bored again, or if there


    was a chance to mend things with Georgia, he''d go crawling back to her and smoothly slide into an arranged marriage with the Reed family, leaving


    her with nothing but heartache and wasted time.


    Better not to start anything at all. That way, she could keep her dignity intact.


    When Thssa shared her resolve, there wasn''t much to be said against it.


    "Speaking of, how are things between you and Lysander now?" she asked, shifting the concern towards Thssa.


    "He invited me over for dinner at his ce,” Thssa replied


    "Dinner? Is he trying to make amends with you?" she asked, slightly surprised


    Shaking her head, Thssa said, "l don''t know. He seems pretty happy with Rosalind now. I''m not about to make the same mistake twice."


    "Right. You need to stand your ground, Thssa. Don''t let Lysander charm you back into his life. You''ve finally found your freedom; don''t get sucked


    back into his world. Remember, the moment things got rough, he was quick to kick you out of Royal Estates.”


    Keeping herself grounded was one thing, but ensuring Thssa remained clear-headed was another. Both sisters seemed to have more than their


    fair share of romantic turmoil

    Lysander’s intentions towards Thssa were nothing serious, merely a fling in his eyes.


    For the sisters, the dream of a happy marriage and aplete family seemed more like a fairy tale.


    "I know, I won''t be fooled. Don''t worry," Thssa assured her.


    "That''s good to hear," she replied, feeling scmewhat relieved


    Their conversation was interrupted as Donovan approached


    Spotting Donovan, she quickly slid back to her workstation


    Donovan nced at them and said,

    "Why us?" she couldn''t help but ask.


    It didn''t seem like hosting visitors from the Crawley Group and the Sinir Group had anything to do with them directly.
