Chapter 310
Seeing Lysander leave, Thalassa instantly dashed out of her office, ready to hunt down Atticus.
She knew Atticus was still in the loo. If he came out and didn’t see her, he would be scared out of his wits.
She hurried through the security door and once she hit the mall, she froze in her tracks.
The sight before her scared the living daylights out of her.
A little girl had just collided with Lysander, clutching her forehead and whining about how Lysander had hurt her.
The girl was dressed in a pink princess dress, white leggings, and matching shoes. Her hair was tied up in two pigtails, and she looked chubby and absolutely
adorable.
Even from a mile away, Thalassa recognized the little girl as her darling daughter, Elowen!
What the heck was she supposed to do now?
Elowen and Lysander had bumped into each other!
Did he recognize Elowen?
What worried her more was that Dorian and Sophia were also running towards them.
They had reached Elowen, and consequently, Lysander.
Thalassa was as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof, instinctively ready to run to her child.
But she stopped dead in her tracks, realizing if she went over now, it would be a dead giveaway.
Elowen, Sophia, and Dorian didn’t resemble Lysander. He probably wouldn’t recognize them.
But if she went over and all three kids called her mum, the jig would be up.
Thinking this, Thalassa quickly ducked behind the security door, peeking out to survey the situation.
Not far off, Lysander was looking down at a little girl who was barely taller than his knee. Her hair was tied in two pigtails, and she had chubby cheeks and delicate
features.
Her big eyes were shimmering with tears, her pink little mouth pouting, looking like she was about to burst into tears.
Although Lysander didn’t hate this cute girl, he was in a rotten mood, fire burning in his heart.
His hands were still stained with Bruce’s blood.
The moment he looked down, his eyes were cold, an icy aura radiating from him.
Seeing his murderous gaze, Elowen got terrified and started crying.
Elowen’s crying tugged at Thalassa’s heart. She was in agony.
Lysander had actually scared a four-year-old to tears, showing no mercy.
Elowen’s voice was clearly full of fear. Her crying shattered Thalassa’s heart.
As a mother, she didn’t give a damn about anything else now. She was ready to storm out.
She wanted to rush out and hold Elowen and give her a sense of safety to stop her from crying.
Just as she took two steps forward, Dorian, Sophia, and a staff member who was chasing them arrived at Lysander’s side.
Dorian and Sophia extended their little hands, hugging the crying Elowen while gently patting her back to comfort her.
“Don’t cry Elowen. We’ll take you to find mom soon.” Dorian comforted Elowen like a mature big brother.
The staff member kept apologizing to Lysander, “Mr. Sinclair, I’m really sorry. The kid accidentally bumped into you. Actually, their mum has been in the loo for a long time and hasn’t come back yet. The kids are worried their mum will abandon them, so they hurried out to find her.”
Lysander’s gaze fell on the three kids huddled together.
He had seen this crying girl a few times. The previous times he’d seen her, her smile was pure and bright, like a refreshing spring, pleasing to the eyes and very
likable.
