NovelEnglishThalia said the situation at hwas too dire at that moment, and she did not want to involve him anymore.
Lucas seemed to have no reason to intervene further. After all, it was her family's private matter. When he returned home, he even mentioned the news to his grandparents, who also could not believe it. "She doesn't seem like the kind of girl who'd make such impulsive decisions," they said.
Lucas sighed. "Perhaps the impact of the past events, especially after her father fell into a coma, has been too great on her. It's all my fault for dragging her into this mess..." The Riveras knew deep down that since the moment Henry fell into a coma, the fate of the two Garcia girls had bectheir responsibility. They could not just stand idly by when it cto Claudia's affairs. "Ask Thalia if she needs any help when the right timing comes along," his grandparents advised.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLucas naturally agreed; it was only right for him to take up the responsibility of handling Claudia's affairs.
What was most tragic and ironic was that Henry woke up from his coma shortly after Claudia's affairs were settled. The hospital called to inform them. Since Lucas was responsible for taking care of Henry, he was also notified immediately.
Lucas and Thalia arrived at the hospital almost at the stime. Henry chatted with Thalia for a while and asked why Claudia had not come. Thalia and Lucas exchanged glances, both unsure of where to begin.
Henry sensed something was wrong and, despite his weakness, pressed for answers. Under her father's persistent questioning, Thalia tearfully revealed the truth about Claudia's suicide.
Upon hearing the news, Henry becextremely agitated and nearly passed out again. With the doctor's intervention, he regained sconsciousness. Using his last strength, he entrusted his youngest daughter to Lucas, making him promise to take good care of her and ensure her mental well-being.
Lucas, already burdened with guilt, nodded without hesitation. Unexpectedly, after saying those words, Henry seemed to let go of all worries, and closed his eyes forever to join his eldest daughter.
That day, Thalia cried her heart out. Lucas, consumed by guilt, stayed by her side. In the end, he arranged for her to be taken hwhile he handled Henry's affairs. However, he did not expect Thalia to ask him to help with her transfer procedures right after that, saying she wanted to go to Molomia.
"Why choose somewhere so far away? There are plenty of top universities in the country." Lucas was puzzled, but Thalia's voice sounded particularly desolate over the phone.

Lucas remained silent for a long time. "If you want to go to Molomia, I'll help you make it happen. I'm just worried if this is an impulsive decision..." "What else do I have to be impulsive about? My sister is gone, my dad is gone. Lucas, just lethave this one thing. I don't want to stay in this place anymore." Since Thalia said so, Lucas naturally had no reason to refuse. Within a week, he arranged everything for her, and Thalia flew to Molomia for her studies not long after.
At first, out of responsibility, Lucas occasionally flew over to visit her, especially since she was unfamiliar with the place. That was how Thalia and Lucas kept in touch over the years.
Listening to Quinn recounting their past, Lucas remembered that Thalia and Claudia relationship not have a good before Claudia's death.
Surprisingly, Thalia often reminisced about Claudia after her death.
"So you're saying that Claudia's death wasn't a suicide, but Thalia manipulated things omake it look like One? That it was Thalia who killed her own sister?" Lucas ooked incredulously at Quinn. Quinn had never seen such a shocked expression on the face of the usually composed company president, indicating just how stunned he was.
