Chapter 1317 Thalassa blinked back her tears, revealing a smile tinged with relief. “Yeah, it’s just better with Mom around.” “Why are you hso early?” Evelyn asked, her brows knitting with concern. Typically, it was Evelyn who went to pick up the kids before Thalassa got off work.

“Are you worried they gavethe boot?” Thalassa chuckled, her eyes crinkling at the corners.

In the past five years, Evelyn's greatest fear had been Thalassa losing her job. If that happened, they'd be up a creek without a paddle.

“No, darling, I'm just scared you ran into strouble,” Evelyn said, her gaze soft and full of maternal love.

Back in the day, they pinched pennies, but now they were sitting pretty-no need to panic, right? “I'm fine, Mom. Everything's peachy as long as you're by my side,” Thalassa said, hugging Evelyn tightly.

After all, a kid with their mom is a blessed thing indeed.

“Alright, sweetie, you're carrying a little one now. Go rest in your room,” Evelyn suggested. With an obedient smile, Thalassa let go of her mother and headed to her bedroom.

After the emotional roller coaster of the day, Thalassa was indeed exhausted. Lying on her bed, she drifted off to sleep in no time.

Evelyn tidied up the living room and settled on the couch for a brief respite when the cell phone in Thalassa’s handbag began to ring.

Who could be calling? Evelyn fetched the phone from the handbag, puzzled by x | unknown number flashing on the screen without a saved contact name.

Maybe it's a scam call, she thought.

But the phone kept ringing persistently.

Worried it might be something urgent from Thalassa’s company, Evelyn decided to answer, As soon as the call connected, she was met with the vitriolic tirade of an angry old man.

“Thalassa, you little tramp, just like your mother! You had the nerve to get Lysander to throwin jail! Just you wait-I'll spill every dirty little secret your mother had with me!” 1/2 09:45 Chapter 1317 The words were a barrage of scorn and arrogance, each one striking Evelyn like a physical blow.

It was Bruce's voice, spewing venom at Thalassa! Seething with rage, Evelyn shot back, “Bruce, you bastard, you deserve it! Thalassa’s not your daughter, stop harassing her! Lysander did the world a favor locking you up. Go to hell!” With that, she hung up, her breath coming in ragged huffs.

That scoundrel Bruce, hadn't he done enough damage? And now he was after her daughter! Her poor Thalassa, always looked down upon by Lysander due to her past with Bruce.

Evelyn had seen the way Lysander looked at Thalassa-it was clear as day he had feelings for her.

If he loved Thalassa, why not marry her? It must be because of her-Lysander despised Bruce, despised her, so he took all that hate out on Thalassa.

No, she couldn't let Thalassa suffer because of her any longer. She had to secure a better future for her daughter.

She'd tell Lysander the truth-Thalassa wasn’t Bruce's daughter! Evelyn could no longer heed Thalassa’s belief that Lysander would be tired of her and set her free.

She didn’t know if Lysander would let Thalassa go, but she was sure of one thing: if Thalassa continued to bear the stigma of being Bruce's daughter, Bruce would be the death of her.

With a sense of urgency, Evelyn dashed out the door and hailed a cab to Royal Estates.
