Chapter 347
“What’s wrong, Thalassa?” The concern was evident in Hertha’s voice.
Explaining the day’s events to Hertha in a nutshell, Thalassa let it all out.
“Holy cow, your despicable dad is the one who ruined Lysander’s family?” Hertha nearly dropped her jaw in surprise.
Thalassa’s father, a man who was never before mentioned, turned out to be the past lover of Lysander’s mother!
He may not have killed anyone, but Lysander’s parents died because of him.
Thalassa’s problems with Lysander Just got a whole lot .complex!
“I’m locked up right now, can you help me?” Thalassa pleaded.
What on earth was going on?
“Lysander has quite a temper. Bruce did those things before you were even born. And he’s never acted like a father to you. Lysander has no right to take his anger out on you. You did nothing wrong.”
Hertha felt outraged for Thalassa. Thalassa was innocent.
Feeling wronged, Thalassa chatted with Hertha for a while.
“I’ll handle this,” Hertha said confidently. “I’m heading to the Starhaven International Hotel now to see if I can distract the bodyguards. You can escape in the confusion.”
“Hertha, I love you the most, mm-hmm.” Thalassa saw a glimmer of hope and blew a kiss towards the screen.
Half an hour later, Hertha arrived at the Starhaven International Hotel. Following Thalassa’s room number, she took the elevator to the 28th floor.
As the elevator door opened, a tall figure approached.
Looking up, Hertha recognized the man’s face.
He had a pair of captivating eyes and a face full of charm like a silver fox, with delicate features that perfectly blended masculine strength and feminine beauty.
He was handsome and gorgeous!
The man was tall, dressed in a white suit, like a prince charming.
He looked slightly displeased and hurried.
Her heart skipped a beat at the sight. It was Alaric.
What was he doing here?
Before she could figure it out, Alaric pulled her out of the elevator, turned her around, and threw her against the wall next to the other elevator.
Caught off guard, she barely felt the pain from her back hitting the wall when Alaric leaned in, one hand on the wall, towering over her.
His masculine aura engulfed her.
Her heart raced and her eyes sparkled.
Just as she was about to question Alaric, his cool finger lifted her chin, raising her face towards his. Without hesitation, he leaned in for a kiss.
In the moment their lips touched.
Hertha felt as if her entire body had been electrified, a tingling sensation spreading from her lips throughout her body, even down to her toes.
Her heart pounded like a boiling kettle. Her face instantly flushed.
She could feel Alaric’s masculine breath in her nostrils.
In that moment, Hertha felt as if her world was filled with pink bubbles.
Oh my God, was she dreaming?
Alaric had just kissed her!
Her love life was finally blossoming!
Hertha was overjoyed, every cell in her body jumping with excitement.
“Alaric, what are you doing?” A woman’s shrill voice suddenly sounded from the side.
Hertha’s heart skipped a beat in fright.
