Chapter 2079

Thssa was both ttered and a bit embarrassed by the attention.
She instinctively tried to pull her hand away from Lysander''s, but he held it firmly.
Facing Harper''s memorial, it seemed Lysander wanted Thssa to stand by his side through it all.
Lysander, hand in hand with Thssa, continued to address Harper, "You were my confidant, we knew each other inside out, the best of business partners. Now that I''m married, you''d bless me, wouldn''t you?"
Matilda, upon hearing this, impulsively wanted to confront Lysander but was pulled back by Joshua.
Fuming, she red silently at Joshua in protest. Everyone knew Lysander and Harper were childhood sweethearts, destined for each other. If Harper hadn''t passed away, she undoubtedly would have been the one marrying Lysander.
And there was Lysander, introducing Thssa as his wife right in front of Harper''s memorial on her anniversary. Was he trying to disturb Harper''s peace even in death?
Besides, even with Harper gone, there was Rosalind, who expected to be Lysander''s bride. How did Thssae into the picture? Feeling Matilda''s angry gaze, Joshua shook his head calmly, signaling her to keep her cool.
Matilda was seething inside, her heart going out to Rosalind, expecting her to be green with envy, ring at Lysander and Thssa. But to her surprise, Rosalind''s face was calm, not showing the anger Matilda expected.
What was going on?
Had Rosalind learned to mask her feelings so quickly?
Or did she no longer care about Lysander?
Matilda had always thought she understood her daughter well, but today she realized she might not know her as well as she thought. Seeing Rosalind''sck of reaction, Matilda dropped the matter but shot Joshua a fierce look to vent her frustration.
"Mr. Sinir, thank you for taking the
time to visit my niece. Today was meant for the Whitman family tomemorate Harper, but it seems you hold our niece in high regard," said Georgia''s father with a ttering tone.

Lucas, Joshua''s brother, hadn''t been as sessful in business as Joshua and wasn''t as wealthy.
He was fully aware of Lysander''s influence and status, and his words dripped with sycophancy.
Lysander, ignoring him, continued with thememoration, holding Thssa by his side.
Then Joshua came over with a little boy about two or three years old, standing next to Lysander and looking at Harper''s photograph, he said, "Harper, let me introduce the newest member of the Whitman family to you. This is yton, my son, your brother. You''ve got to recognize all of us." Content belongs

Joshua was talking about the little boy Susan had for him. The child had been well-cared for recently, looking healthier and more vibrant.
As soon as
Joshua finished
speaking, Lysander''s authoritative
voice filled the air, "Then you must
also recognize Thssa as your
sister She''s part of the Whitman
family, too. Make sure you
remember her."
With that statement, Joshua''s face turned pale, his gaze shifting between Lysander and Thssa.
At that moment, Thssa also looked towards him.
Their eyes met, her gaze filled with a mix of vulnerability and innocence.
It felt like a punch to Joshua''s gut, filled with shame and embarrassment.
He quickly added, "Yes, Harper, Thssa is also dad''s daughter, your sister. She''s part of the Whitman family, too. You''ve got to remember her." Sweat formed in Joshua''s palms. Lysander was there to im Thssa''s ce in the family.
He was there to set the record straight for Thssa.
