Chapter 1031

Tucking the kids into bed, Thalassa said to them, “Snuggle up and wait for Mommy,

sweethearts. I’ll just take a quick shower and then it’s story time.”

“Okay, we’ll wait!” the little cuties nodded obediently, their eyes reflecting trust and

anticipation.

Thalassa’s smile lingered as she turned and stepped out of the room. She was thinking of

arranging bath and room for Evelyn to stay over. It was her first time here, and Thalassa

wanted everything to be perfect.

Just then, her phone buzzed in her pocket, jolting her nerves. The ringtone felt like a

harbinger of stress.

Hesitating for only a second, she pulled out the phone and glanced at the screen. The

number was unfamiliar, certainly not Bruce’s she knew his by heart.

The strange digits weren’t from Lysander either; she realized with a mix of relief and an

inexplicable twinge of heartache.

After staring at the flashing numbers for a few seconds, Thalassa slid the answer button

with a resigned motion. “Hello?”

Even suspecting a scam, she maintained her polite tone – what if it wasn’t?

“It’s me.” a man’s voice came through, clear and grave.

Thalassa instantly recognized the voice. Startled, her heart rate spiked. “What’s up?”

She quickened her pace toward the bathroom. The house staff was bustling in the hallway,

and she couldn’t risk being overheard. If any of them caught wind of the conversation,

Lysander would surely find out.

“There’s something important. Tonight is the best time for you to leave. Just take your kids

and do as I tell you,” Callum’s voice was serious, a stark contrast to his usual easygoing

tone.

Thalassa stepped into the bathroom and shut the door, but she still peered through the

frosted glass to ensure privacy. “Tonight? I’m completely unprepared!” she whispered in

shock, her mind racing.

Escaping with her children from a man like Lysander required meticulous planning. If they

were caught, the consequences would be dire,

“No need for preparations. Take your children, get out of Royal Estates, and leave the rest

to me,” Callum instructed.

“But why is tonight the best opportunity? Lysander could return at any moment.” Thalassa

fretted, feeling trapped.

“Remember I mentioned investigating the hotel? Several kidnappings and assaults on

women were reported there, and now the media is all over it. It’s tied to Lysander.”

“Tied to Lysander?” she echoed, her grip on the phone tightening in surprise.

“Yes. The case is solved. Lysander would get the credit. The media would be all over him,

and he’d be too busy to come home tonight,” Callum explained, aiming to ease Thalassa’s

fears so she could boldly take her children and flee.

Callum had personally managed the exposure of the hotel scandal, gathered evidence and

tipped off the media. Yet, he’d deliberately leaked Lysander’s involvement to the press,

suggesting his raid on the hotel was a heroic act of crime-fighting.

With Lysander’s own allure and notoriety, the media were clamoring for a piece of him.

Now was Thalassa’s chance to disappear into the night.
