Chapter 241
With shock written all over her face, Thalassa turned to Leopold. “Lysander is your uncle?”
Leopold gave a nod “Yes, but he’s only three years older than me”
Thalassa felt like she had been struck by lightning. She gasped for air.
Lysander Sinclair, Leopold Sinclair So they were family
Thalassa had always thought they just shared the same last name, and it was a coincidence.
It turned out that Lysander and Leopold were both Sinclairs!
Five years ago, Isabella slept with Thalassa’s boyfriend, Leopold. And now Thalassa had hopped into bed with Leopold’s uncle, Lysander!
Was this like the real–life version of, If I can’t be your wife, then Ill be your uncle’s mistress?
Thalassa’s heart pounded. She felt anxious.
Hertha also felt shocked. With her eyes wide open, she glanced from Leopold to Thalassa.
Leopold was Lysander’s nephew! This was too much!
Seeing the panicked expressions on Thalassa and Hertha’s faces, Leopold knew they had been fibbing.
He almost believed the information he got was wrong and that Thalassa had a new boyfriend.
But when he heard Hertha say that Thalassa’s boyfriend was Lysander, he knew they were bullshitting.
His tense heart relaxed.
Hertha bragged in front of everyone that Thalassa’s boyfriend was Lysander, only to be busted on the spot.
Hertha’s previously smug vibe deflated and she immediately turned listless.
She looked embarrassed but still managed a strained smile. “Thalassa and I have something to do. We’ll be going now.”
She grabbed Thalassa’s arm, ready to bolt.
Just then, a commanding presence entered the bar. It was a man in a handmade black suit, looking serious, intimidating, and prestigious.
He strode towards them.
The moment he entered, the air seemed to tremble, making it difficult to breathe.
Thalassa saw the man coming in and felt a mix of terror and nervousness. Her heart pounded uncontrollably.
Oh my God! Lysander was here. This was a disaster she couldn’t fix
She quickly lowered her head, trying to make herself invisible, hoping Lysander wouldn’t spot her.
She clutched Hertha’s hand, ready to make a swift exit.
Debby seized the opportunity. She blocked their path, preventing them from escaping. She said loudly. “Thalassa, don’t run. Didn’t you just say that Lysander, the CEO of Sinclair group, is your boyfriend? Your boyfriend is here, why are you running away?”
She emphasized the words running away.”
Thalassa felt alarm bells ringing. She shot a furious look at Debby.
At the same time, Lysander’s deep and intimidating gaze fell upon her.
Seeing those familiar eyes, Thalassa felt her heart leaden.
