Chapter 320
“Thalassa, I gotta warn you, this guy has no moral compass whatsoever. You can’t let him fool you,”
Evelyn cautioned Thalassa.
She had planned to have a serious chat with Bruce and give him a piece of her mind.
But she didn’t expect his shamelessness to exceed her wildest imagination.
The old fart actually dared to try something on her.
She pushed him away with all her might and he resisted!
This kind of man was nothing but societal trash, complete garbage!
Thalassa replied to Evelyn, “Mom, I get it.”
“Alright, let’s eat. After dinner, get some rest. You worked late last night and have to take the kids out
today. You must be tired,” Evelyn said.
“Mhm, mom, you eat too, Thalassa nodded.

When she was little, she saw other kids being pampered by their fathers and she too wished for a
father’s love.
But the harsh reality shattered all her beautiful illusions of her father.
She didn’t expect her father to be such a man.
Men truly were no good.
When she was young, she believed in love, only to be betrayed by Leopold Sinclair.
Later, she thought she could stay with the father of her children out of responsibility.
But the father of her children didn’t want to marry her at all.
He didn’t like kids and even had a fiancée.
In his eyes, she was probably just a toy to play with!
She and her mother were so unlucky, encountering such men after more than twenty years.
After finishing the pizza, Evelyn lay down next to the kids and went to sleep.
Meeting Bruce today made her so angry her stomach hurt, stirring up unbearable memories of over
twenty years ago.
Evelyn had no mood to play poker anymore, better to get some rest and sleep.
Thalassa was also exhausted. She took a bath and hand washed her new skirt to make sure it was
spotless. Then she dried it with a hairdryer and even ironed it.
She planned to bring the skirt to the office on Monday to return it to Lysander.
Before she could finish ironing, her phone rang.
Seeing the name on the screen, she answered unhappily, “What now?”
Leopold was so annoying. He always called her at night!
And he always called after she had finished her bath and changed into her pajamas.
“I miss you,” Leopold drawled lazily, sounding a bit whiny.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis gave Thalassa goosebumps, “Leopold, are you sick or something?”
“Yes, I’m sick. And it’s all because of you,” Leopold admitted.
This left Thalassa speechless. “What does your illness have to do with me? If you’re sick, go to the
hospital. What are you calling me for?”
“Because I’m sick with missing you and only you can cure it,” Leopold’s deep voice was thick with
emotion.
She’d heard enough sweet nothings during her college years.
Back then, she was completely charmed by Leopold’s sweet words.
Looking back now, she felt ridiculous.
It was undoubtedly due to her being young and naïve.
The more sweet nothings a man said, the poorer his character!
Just like her father, his character was also extremely poor.
Thalassa was now immune to such sweet nothings. She said coldly, “If you don’t have anything else to
say, I’m hanging up now!”
