Chapter 527
Clutching his arm tightly, Thalassa clung to him. If he wasn’t going to let her follow, she wasn’t going to let go. Anxiously, she explained, “I swear I wasn’t planning to elope with him. This is all a misunderstanding.”
“You expect me to believe that?” Lysander’s hand easily peeled hers from his arm. He shot her a cold look and briskly walked out.
Thalassa hurried after him, practically jogging to keep up, for fear he would leave her behind.
From the moment Lysander had walked into the room, Leopold had been standing there, enduring the pain.
Not a single word was said to him,
He was an outsider, yet every word spoken felt like a heavy blow.
They came in a hurry and left in a hurry, leaving Leopold standing in the same spot, his heart bleeding from countless wounds.
He had assumed that Thalassa and Lysander’s relationship was limited to that one night five years prior and that even as superior and subordinate, they weren’t intimate.
He never thought they would have had four children together.
Children were the tie between them. Separating would be even more difficult.
Being with Thalassa seemed like an impossible task.
The yard and the street were filled with cars, almost surrounding the entire yard.
The scale of it was not ordinary.
Among them was an RV.
Lysander went forward, leading the four kids towards the RV.
Atticus shrugged off his hand, frowning. He spoke in his childish voice, “I want Mommy to hold my hand.”
Thalassa hurriedly stepped forward to hold Atticus, reassuring him, “Atticus, be a good boy. Mommy’s right here. Mommy’s always with you.”
She led Atticus onto the RV first, signaling to Evelyn to hurry up.
Evelyn understood her daughter’s look and immediately opened the passenger’s door, getting in.
Lysander’s face was gloomy, but he didn’t say anything, leading the other three children onto the RV.
The RV was spacious, with a total of eight seats. The back two seats could be laid flat to form two beds.
The beds were bunk beds, with a space above.
Lysander sat in the front row with three children, and Thalassa sat in the back row with Atticus.
Dorian probably felt it was too crowded. So, he climbed over to Thalassa.
Thalassa’s lips curled into a gentle smile as she embraced the two little kids, softly suggesting, “Why don’t you sleep on Mommy for a while? It’s late, and you haven’t slept for long”
Dorian shook his head, and his eyes were clear and bright. He was wide awake, with no sign of sleepiness. “Mommy, I’m not sleepy. I want to stay with you.”
They had been looking forward to seeing their dad for so long, and finally, they met him today, and he recognized them.
Dorian was curious, happy, a little nervous, and somewhat uncomfortable.
“Alright, Mommy will stay with you too.” Thalassa gently touched Dorian’s delicate little face.
Atticus leaned his head on her, seeming a little upset as if something was bothering him.
He had always hoped to find his dad and be recognized by him.
That’s because he saw other kids’ dads love their moms and their children.
He also wanted his dad’s love and wanted a dad to love his mom.
That way, his mom wouldn’t have to work so hard every day.
However, every time his mom was hurt, it was caused by his dad. And when he finally met his dad, Atticus couldn’t get excited.
