Chapter 197
Other ladies, even if they caught their eyes, were just their playthings.
Thalassa took note of this. She also had to face reality
She was just a woman struggling at the bottom, compared to the Sinclair family, it felt like a world of
difference, like they were separated by mountains and seas.
Yesterday, she got too big for her boots and actually thought Lysander’s so–called responsibility was to
marry her.
He was just using his wealth to compensate her, to make up for the night she became his antidote.
The villa he built for her was the best evidence of his compensation.
As for taking her to meet his grandparents, it was just because he wasn’t done playing with her and
needed a legitimate excuse to

She wasn’t that kind of person.
Thalassa went to the cleaning department on the tenth floor to take a breather, then continued to the
top floor to clean the conference
room.
As soon as she stepped into the conference room, a man stepped out of the elevator.
The man had short chestnut hair, a slim build, and an attractive face that shone like sunshine.
Leopold stepped out of the elevator and went straight to the CEO’s office.
He slightly opened the door, peeked in with a smile, and knocked.
Lysander thought it was Thalassa and quickly lifted his head, his deep eyes looking towards the door,
thinking she had changed her mind and was coming to apologize.
But it wasn’t her, his gaze held a hint of disappointment.
“Come in.” His tone was cool.
Given permission, Leopold walked in and said, “My dear, long time no see. You’re still as young and
handsome as ever.”
Lysander put the documents in the folder, got up, went to sit on the couch, and said, “You’re back in the
country but not going home, what brings you here?”
Leopold sat down on the couch across from him, sighed slightly, and looked a bit down. “Lysander,
remember that woman I told you about? I came back for her. Home doesn’t feel like home without her.”
Five years ago, after that incident, he explained to Thalassa many times that he was drunk and mistook
Isabella for her.
He promised not to make the same mistake again, hoping Thalassa would forgive him.
But Thalassa, after firmly breaking up with him, had been avoiding him.
No matter how much he explained, it was useless, she even blocked all his contact information.
He couldn’t even reach her.

Leopold was heartbroken, depressed, and lost.
Later, it was Uncle Lysander who enlightened him, telling him not to lose himself over a woman and to
maintain his manhood.
If he really liked that woman that much, he should make a name for himself and come back to impress
her.
Leopold took this to heart, studied abroad for two years, and worked hard overseas for three years.
Now he’s had some achievements, and he’s back.
The first thing he did when he came back was to look for Thalassa.
Lysander poured a glass of red wine, held the wine glass with his slender fingers, slightly shook it, took
a sip, and asked, “What about that woman?”
Lysander was also having a headache over a woman.
Every time Leopold thought of Thalassa, his heart ached. He poured himself a glass of red wine and
gulped it down. He said, “Five years ago, I was framed and hurt her. She has never forgiven me. Today,
when I saw her, she was still mad at me. I saw sadness in her eyes. Is that because she
