Thalassa bowed her head, her gaze lingering on the suitcase before her, a bittersweet sensation churning in her gut.
She had imagined being there for Lysander the moment he awoke, continuing to care for him, sharing countless words she'd stored up just for him. She wanted to tell him how much she'd longed for his awakening over these past three years, to talk about their future and dreams.
But to her dismay, Lysander's first act upon waking was to send her away. He wouldn't even grant her the courtesy of a final meeting.
Thalassa yearned to confront Lysander, to demand why, but the bodyguard was adamant, barring her entry, leaving her with a thousand unaskable whys.
Dragging her suitcase, Thalassa could do nothing but leave the grandeur of Royal Estates behind.
As she drove toward Star Harbor Villa, her mind was a whirlwind of memories. The countless moments she had spent caring for Lysander flooded her thoughts.
Recalling his words just before the accident haunted her; he had said, "We're square now, no debts between us."
That phrase clenched her heart.
It dawned on her why Lysander had sent her away. He had declared their accounts settled three years ago. No debts meant no need for goodbyes.
The weight of those words struck her deeply. Thalassa wondered if Lysander had felt a similar sting each time she had uttered them in the past, if her words had wounded him as deeply as his now wounded her.
He had once insisted on marriage, yet she had blamed him for her mother's untimely death, stubbornly drawing a line between them and vowing to sever ties forever.
