"Seriously, what difference does it make if I'm mad or not? Does it change anything for you?" Thalassa stood before Lysander, her breath uneven with emotion, as she laid her feelings bare.
Her words were more than just a display of anger; they were the stark truth.
Even after the misunderstanding about the paternity of her unborn child was cleared up, and it was confirmed that the child was indeed his, Lysander hadn't bothered to offer a single explanation or an apology.
It was as if suspecting her, treating her with disdain was his right, and even after the truth came to light, he remained aloof, untouchable, acting as if someone like her didn't deserve an apology.
Whether she was angry or not, he remained on his high horse, seemingly unaffected by her emotions.
Thalassa felt wronged, swallowing her pride like a bitter pill, without even the right to claim justice for herself.
If she couldn't stand up to him, couldn't she at least escape?
Lysander's gaze was fixed on her as she stood there, her eyes a stormy sea of defiance and fury, her chest rising and falling with each breath- an embodiment of hurt and indignation.
Casually resting his hand on the table, his eyes never left her. "You and Callum were getting too cozy for my liking," he said. "You saw him behind my back that day, and then there was a box of consumed birth control pill at home. You kept the whole thing about birth control from me. After seeing Callum, you were all sneaky, and then you ran off with him. I tried to trust you, but I just couldn't convince myself."
For the past few days, Lysander had been seething with anger, his temper frayed.
Furious with Thalassa for running off with Callum, he was even more incensed that she chose to endure suffering rather than expose Bruce's kidnapping scheme!
She seemed resolute in shielding Bruce, driven by thoughts of their father-daughter bond, despite his scoundrel nature - less than human in his deeds.
Bruce had never fulfilled any paternal duties; he never played the part of a father beyond sharing DNA. Yet, she defended him fiercely!
