Chapter 1342
Here again, canother uninvited guest talking about Thalassa’s mother, the most grievous topic that she was
trying her best to avoid.
Each mention of Evelyn felt like a new step trampling over Thalassa’s already bruised soul, as if there was a
dagger wedged in her heart. And with each visitor's words, it was pushed deeper, twisting the pain into
something almost unbearable. And then, as if on cue, another would arrive to press down on the hilt of the
blade, slicing through the tender flesh of her heart, threatening to split it in two.
Thalassa choked on the agony, unable to bear it any longer. In a fit of rage, she leapt to her feet, her eyes
blazing with fury as she glared at Susan. “Get out! Just get the hell out of my house and stop talking about your
damn father!” she spat.
Her hands were shaking with anger as she advanced on Susan, intent on shoving her out the door. The very
mention of Bruce was like poison to her-Bruce, that despicable, filthy man who thankfully was on death row, a

But death was too good for him. He should suffer the most gruesof fates, drawn and quartered, begging for
a death that would not come!
Susan staggered back, taken aback by Thalassa’s outburst. In Susan’s eyes, she had always been the city girl,
the one with the world at her fingertips, while Thalassa was just sbackwoods nobody, reeking of poverty.
Susan felt above her, and the mere contact made her skin crawl.
With a haughty flick of her wrist, Susan dodged Thalassa’s touch. “Don’t you dare lay a finger on me! | came
here out of pity, Thalassa, to do you the courtesy of telling you the truth about how your mother died!”
“My mom died in a car crash, what ‘truth’ is there to tell?” Thalassa retorted, her rage palpable as her fiery gaze
bore into Susan.
“Oh, really? Did you even hear the official determination of the crash? Evelyn drove straight into that truck. It
was ruled a suicide. Evelyn's at fault herself. Even in death, the driver bears no blame,” Susan snapped coldly.
Thalassa’s heart skipped a beat, her eyes widening in shock. “What did you say?”
A chill crept over her, a sense of foreboding settling in.
Astrid stood up, her voice firm. “Young lady, you'd better watch what you're saying!”
Everyone in town knew that Evelyn had died in a car accident-nothing more, nothing less. Suicide? It was
unthinkable.
Susan pulled out her smartphone, scrolling to the page with the official police report, and shoved it in Thalassa’s
face. “See for yourself.”

Despite her reluctance to believe anything Susan said, Thalassa couldn't help but look.

The four little ones, sensing the tension, stepped back to give Thalassa a clear view. Astrid leaned in closer as
well.
The official statement confirmed it: Evelyn had indeed driven herself headfirst into the truck. The driver had tried
desperately to brake but couldn’t stop in time. It was ruled a
suicide.
A cold shiver shot up Thalassa’s spine as she read, her whole body going numb with shock, her palms icy with
dread.
Astrid gasped, stepping back as if the words had physically struck her. Evelyn had always cherished life. How
could she have done this to herself?
Why?
What had Evelyn gone through?
