Chapter 1720


    Getting engaged to Rosalind, and even marrying her, was Lysander''s choice. Thssa knew this deep down. If Lysander wasn''t willing, nobody could force him. Joshua was dead set on setting up Rosalind with Lysander, that much was true, because Rosalind was his beloved daughter. Of course, he wanted the best man for her.


    In Joshua''s eyes, Thssa could neverpare to Rosalind. Thssa never harbored any illusions that Joshua would treat her better than he did Rosalind. She always knew where she stood.Material ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "Careful, Lysander. Let me help you," Rosalind said, guarding him by his wheelchair, helping him navigate the ramp into the van to avoid any mishaps. Once Lysander was safely in, she signaled to David to stow the ramp away. While directing David, she shot him a look of disdain.


    In Rosalind''s mind, David was on Thssa''s side. Why else would he have advised her to give up on Lysander and find someone else? His advice was nothing but a ploy to clear the way for Thssa to step in! Because of that, Rosalind harbored a grudge against David and was quite irked.


    David, catching Rosalind''s disdainful nce, paused, unable to react before Rosalind got into the vehicle and closed the door, cutting off his view. David was puzzled, wondering what he had done to offend Rosalind.


    The car glided smoothly on the asphalt road. Sitting next to Lysander, Rosalind asked in her gentle, intellectual manner, "Lysander, what shall we have for dinner?"


    "Back to Royal Estates. Whatever the kitchen has prepared," Lysander responded casually, his gaze fixed ahead.


    His calm reply made Rosalind beam with joy: "Great, the chefs at Royal Estates always make delicious meals, all to my liking." Rosalind was in high spirits. Lysander''s willingness to chat and answer her simple question signaled his growing eptance of her.


    It seemed her decision to vote for


    vel.n


    Thssa was the right one! Her antagonism towards Thssa hadn''t faded, but Rosalind was smart enough to act appropriately ording to the situation. Just moments ago, Joshua had announced Thssa was his illegitimate daughter, Rosalind''s biological sister. Attacking Thssa publicly at this juncture would only reveal her selfish motives too clearly. Not only would it disappoint Lysander, but it would also invite public criticism for ostracizing her own sister.


    Her vote for Thssa was not only an act of magnanimity, showing sisterly love, but also a way to curry favor with Lysander. Even though


    she was engaged to Lysough et


    Rosalind was acutely aware that he still harbored feelings for Thssa. Thssa had a special ce in his heart, always.


    Lysander''s recent action, standing up for Thssa against a rude audience member, was proof of his care for her. He clearly wanted


    Thssa to win. By aligning her


    actions with Lysander''s desire


    Rosalind aimed to win his approval. And it paid off-Lysander''s


    demeanor towards her softened significantly.


    She was confident the media would portray her and Thssa in a positive light, highlighting their sisterly bond and support for each other. Rosalind was happy not just because Lysander was being kinder to her, but also because she felt she had won this round.
