Chapter 388

“Sweetie, it’s time for bed.” Thalassa gently patted his tiny chest, coaxing him to sleep.

She thought she had disturbed his slumber.

In the dark night, Dorian pouted. He felt sorry for his mom and wanted to comfort her with a hug.

But he was afraid if she’d find out he wasn’t asleep.

So, he suppressed his urge to embrace her. He closed his eyes obediently and pretended to sleep, not

wanting to worry his mom.

After patting Dorian for a while, Thalassa heard his steady breathing. He was asleep again.

Relieved, she left the room to freshen up.

The next day was a workday.

Thalassa hadn’t eaten or rested well at the Royal Estates for the past few days, and she was very

exhausted. Plus, she had slept late last night.

When she woke up, there was no one at home. Instinctively panicked, Thalassa grabbed her phone

and saw it was already past ten in the morning.

At this time, the kids would have already gone to school.

What was strange was that Evelyn hadn’t returned either.

Thalassa called her mother and learned that after Evelyn had dropped the kids at the kindergarten, she

went to the card room to watch a game.

Feeling reassured, Thalassa got ready and headed out.

As she drove onto the asphalt road, Thalassa received a call from an unknown number.

“Hello, who is this?” Thalassa asked politely.

“Thalassa, it’s me, Bruce.”

When Thalassa heard this name, her first reaction was to hang up.

“Wait, I’m calling to inform you that your daughter Elowen has made it to the finals of the gourmet

competition. The final round is at ten in the morning, three days from now. Don’t forget,” Bruce quickly

added.

Thalassa replied coldly, “I know.”

“Thalassa, is your hostility towards me really that deep? I am your biological father after all,” Bruce’s

voice carried a hint of aging.

Hearing this, Thalassa felt a mix of anger and mockery.

From the day she was born, he had never fulfilled his responsibilities as a father: To her, he was

nothing more than a stranger.

Moreover, he had audaciously cheated on her mother even after knowing she was pregnant. Was such

a man worthy of being a father?

Thalassa reiterated, “As I’ve said before, from now on, we’re strangers, Bruce. Please stop referring to

yourself as my father.”

“Speaking of which, I’d like to ask why the card I gave you suddenly appeared under my pillow. Did you

return it to me? When I gave you the card, I told you that as long as you accept my money, I won’t

bother you and your mother again. But you returned the card and the money intact. So does that mean

my promise doesn’t count?” Bruce sounded upset.

That day, at the hospital, he had pushed the card into Thalassa’s hand. She didn’t resist, and he

thought she had accepted it. He had gone to the bathroom in the corridor and returned to his hospital

bed to sleep.

It wasn’t until he was discharged and the nurse cleaning the bed sheets called him that his card under

the pillow. He didn’t even know when Thalassa had returned it to him.

“That’s what you think. I never agreed to anything” Thalassa said, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.”

That day, when she went to the hospital to pick Isabella up, she didn’t expect to run into Bruce. Bruce

had blocked her way and wouldn’t let her leave. He said as long as she took his card, he wouldn’t

bother her again and would consider her a stranger. In the urgent situation, she didn’t have time to

think and just wanted to clear up her relationship with Bruce as soon as possible, so she didn’t refuse

his card.

When he went to the bathroom, she entered his room and saw the hospital bed with Bruce’s patient tag

hanging on it. She shoved the card under the pillow as a way of returning it to him, refusing his money.

There were no cameras in the room, and those taking photos couldn’t have followed her into the room.

They only captured the moment when she took the card from Bruce, but not when she returned it.

Lysander was furious, thinking she had a deep father-daughter relationship with Bruce.

Now she wanted to explain, but she had no way to defend herself.

Just as she was about to hang up, Bruce asked urgently, “What’s your relationship with Lysander from

the Sinclair Group?”

Hearing this question, Thalassa’s hand holding the phone froze.

Why was Bruce asking about this?
