Chapter 152
Thalassa’s heart was racing as the quickly glanced back, just in time to see the black Rolls Royce
disappearing into the distance
The kids were not loud, so Lysander probably didn’t hear them calling her “mom‘
Thalassa breathed a sigh of relief, turning to face her four little darlings running towards her.
Over the last five years, nothing had brought her more joy than the sight of these innocent little devils
racing towards her every time she came home, their eyes filled with love and dependence on her.
A happy smile tugged at the comers of Thalassa’s mouth as she squatted down and spread her arms
wide, ready to catch her beloved
kiddos.
Elowen was the fastest. This chubby little angel landed straight into her arms, planted a couple of
kisses on Thalassa’s face, and then said in her soft voice, “Mom, you’re back. Grandma’s been so
worried about you”

fat. She snuggled up to Thalassa, rubbed her little face against hers, and said, “Mom, you’re finally
back. We were scared out of our wits.”
Atticus and Dorian trotted over, only to find their mom’s lap already occupied, so they slowed down and
managed to squeeze in, eventually finding their spot in her arms,
Thalassa hugged her four little treasures contentedly.
She asked softly, “Why were you worried about me?”
“Greta said the cops took you away, said you did something illegal. We were so scared.” Dorian
pouted, his voice barely a whisper, his beautiful eyes filled with tears.
Thalassa finally understood what he was talking about.
She reached out, wiped away the tears from Dorian’s cheek with her thumb and said, “The cop got it all
wrong, but it’s sorted now. So, I’m back. Don’t worry, I’m fine. Let’s go home.”
She stood up, held the hands of two of her kids, and started walking towards home.
Their old house was a dump, but now they lived in a mansion.
She thought Lysander built them a mansion because he was embarrassed to visit their old place.
Turns out, he thought the woman he slept with five years ago was her cousin, Celia. He built the
mansion as a compensation for Celia, who was no longer alive.
It must have been Isabella who told Lysander that he had been with Celia five years ago, and that Celia
was now dead.
No wonder Lysander made a special visit to Hollowbrook to pay respects at Celia’s grave.
He thought he had been with Celia five years ago and that it was his fault she died in the old house..
Thalassa and the kids finally reached the mansion’s front door.
Just as Evelyn was about to step out, she saw Thalassa. Her worries instantly replaced by surprise.
She rushed over, held Thalassa and looked her up and down, a mix of shock and relief, “Thalassa, I
heard the cops took you away for theft. We may not be rich, but you can’t resort to stealing. Every
penny has to be earned with hard work.”

Seeing Thalassa unharmed, Evelyn started to worry that she might have gone astray due to stress,
which frightened her.
Seeing the worry on Evelyn’s face, Thalassa felt grateful. This was why she stayed positive and faced
life head–on. No hurdle could ever knock her down.
She grew up in a loving environment.
Her mom might be a nag and loved her poker game, but she truly loved her.
Love made one feel confident and energetic.
Thalassa laughed gently and reassuringly, saying, “Mom, do you still not trust me? How could I
possibly steal? It was just a misunderstanding. Don’t worry, everything’s fine now.”
“What exactly happened? Tell me.” Evelyn was still worried, letting Thalassa inside while asking.
Thalassa, walking through the yard into the house with the kids, didn’t want to dwell on it, “It was about
the emerald pendant Greta found. The cops thought I stole it. But now it’s all cleared up, the pendant
was found by Greta. I paid her for it, and the police let me go.”
She didn’t tell Evelyn that it was Lysander who got her out, or that Lysander was the father of her
children.
