Chapter 453

What was gone was gone. The future was still promising, and a different life could be just as exciting.

She now had four adorable little angels, the highlights of her life.

After shaking off her thoughts, she stepped out of the house.

Lysander had given her three days off, and coupled with the weekend, it was a total of five days.

These past few days, Thalassa had been spending time in the neighborhood where she used to live,

taking some time off.

Lysander hadn’t bothered her either.

Everything was peaceful.

On Sunday afternoon, Thalassa went out to buy groceries and got ready to prepare dinner.

Just as she left the building, she noticed a sleek black Bentley parked nearby. A man dressed in a

black turtleneck and a blue suit embellished with golden threads was leaning against the car, puffing on

a cigarette.

It was Leopold!

Thalassa thought about pretending not to see him and walking straight past him.

Her wrist was grabbed, and she turned around to find herself facing Leopold’s handsome face. His

usually sunny eyes were now shaded with darkness. Half of the scab on his face had fallen off, with the

other half still clinging to his cheek, looking like a black spider..

Where the scab had fallen off, the skin was tender and slightly red.

Thalassa tried to wriggle her wrist free. “Leopold, let me go!”

Leopold’s gaze was fixed on her wrist. She was wearing the bracelet he had given her. A flicker of

excitement passed through his eyes. “You’ve been wearing it?”

Thalassa was taken aback, realizing that he was referring to the bracelet on her wrist.

She replied, “I was just wearing it for fun. I’ll take it off now.”

When she left Vibrant Oasis Residences that day, she had put it on and forgotten to take it off. She

hadn’t expected Leopold to spot it.

As she was about to take it off, Leopold held onto the bracelet, preventing her from doing so. “It’s just a

piece of jewelry. It’s meant to be worn for fun. Keep it on; it Tooks good on you.”

His gaze shifted to the necklace around her neck. She was wearing that too.

His previously soft gaze darkened once again. “You’ve been wearing the necklace too?”

“It’s just a piece of jewelry. It’s meant to be worn for fun.” Thalassa pulled her hand free, echoing his

words.

Leopold’s eyes were unreadable, and his lean figure loomed over her. “Join me for dinner.”

“I don’t need to. I’ve already eaten.” Thalassa declined instantly.

“Then accompany me for dinner.”

“I’m not interested. Leopold, since we’ve both moved on, let’s remain strangers. Let’s not drag this on.”

Since they had missed their chance, there was no hope for them anymore. She didn’t want to be

entangled in a messy situation.

“So you’re saying Lysander is your future?” Pain filled Leopold’s eyes.

There was a flicker of unease in Thalassa’s eyes, but she quickly lifted her head, looked at him

resolutely, and said, “Yes! Go find your own happiness! I’m leaving!”

With that, she headed out of the complex.

She had things to do, and if she turned back hotne just because she saw him, it would make him think

she was guilty, afraid, and avoiding him.

She wanted to show him that his presence didn’t affect her in the slightest.

Leopold watched her retreating figure as he clenched his fist and felt his heart ache like it was being

soaked in seawater.

Thalassa entered a coffee shop just outside the complex and stared blankly out of the window.

Leopold’s car was still not moving.

What was he doing?

Leopold leaned against the car and pulled out another cigarette, smoking as if it could ease his aching

heart.

He smoked several in a row. The sourness in his heart grew even more intense.

He got into the car and drove away abruptly.

Thalassa watched Leopold’s car drive away through the glass window of the coffee shop. Only then did

she breathe a sigh of relief and let her gaze drop slightly.

“Thalassa, isn’t it? I’ve been wanting to find you.”

She heard a voice from beside her.
