Chapter 190
Thalassa felt a pang of guilt for coming home injured and worrying her family.
However, seeing her kids so concemed about her and showering her with love and care, she felt comforted.
No matter how much she’d been wronged outside, she knew she’d find healing once she got home.
Having her four kids was the best decision she’d ever made in her life.
With them, she had the greatest happiness.
“Mom, uh, you look so pathetic, sald Dorian, his tiny body snuggled in her arms, his bright eyes fixed on her wound, and his lips puckered as if he was feeling her pain.
Her daughter, Elowen, was also distressed, her big eyes glistening with tears. She jumped off the couch and leaned over Thalassa’s foot her lips puckening as she said, “Don’t cry, Mom; Elowen will blow on it for you. It won’t hurt if I blow on it.”
After saying that, she put her little mouth near her mom’s wound and gently blew on it.
Her oldest son, Atticus, watched all this, his calm little face taking on a serious expression. He was sure someone had wronged his
mom.
He was a man so he had to protect his mom. He had to find out who had hurt her and make them apologize!
Evelyn also noticed the wound on Thalassa’s foot. Although she was sharp–tongued, her heart was as soft as cotton candy. She scolded, “Where on earth have you been? Running around all night, even got your foot cut?”
Thalassa was originally sad, but she couldn’t help but laugh at these words.
She looked at Evelyn with a smile and said, “Mom, your imagination is really wild.”
“So, where did you go to end up like this? Evelyn was firm, not allowing Thalassa to evade any further.
Thalassa looked at her mother’s expression, knowing that she wouldn’t let it go until she explained.
She also looked at her children’s expectant eyes.
She knew they were all worried about her, and she’d be letting them down if she hid anything else.
So she said, “I went on a date last night.”
“A date?” This answer surprised everyone.
Evelyn was puzzled. The kids were amazed.
Thalassa watched their reactions.
Evelyn looked thrilled.
And the kids, their eyes wide open, their mouths forming an O,
Was this answer really that shocking?
Thalassa hurriedly explained, “But I got stood up. I was upset about it and that’s why I cried on mom’s shoulder.”
She quickly got to the heart of the matter.
Evelyn was just happy that Thalassa was dating, excitedly thinking that Thalassa finally had a boyfriend.
After five years, finally, a man was willing to accept the fact that she had four kids and wanted to be with her.
Just when she was happy. Thalassa’s next words dealt her a heavy blow.
She was heartbroken?
Evelyn instantly turned serious: “Explain to me, what do you mean by heartbroken? Why would you be heartbroken?”
“Mom, do you need a reason to be heartbroken?” Thalassa tried to avoid her mother’s intense gaze.
Originally, she planned to come home this morning and tell Evelyn that Lysander was the father of her children.
”
After all, Lysander was willing to take responsibility, and she wanted her kids to have a chance to reunite with their father and feel his love.
But what happened this morning threw her plans for a loop.
