Thalassa's question was met with Lysander's brooding, icy gaze. He seemed upset.
But Thalassa thought, she was only addressing the reality issue. After all, Lysander and Rosalind had been paired up by their families, and a wedding was inevitable.
By expressing her willingness to attend their wedding, Thalassa was showing she didn't mind him marrying another woman. It was her way of proving she had moved on, that she harbored no undue feelings towards him.
Wouldn't that also signal that she posed almost no threat to Rosalind? Since she had no designs on Lysander, wouldn't harm his marriage to Rosalind, and would even bless their union, there was no need for Lysander to consider extreme measures to reassure Rosalind.
For Lysander, it meant not having to eliminate an obstacle and spared him the trouble of explaining things to Rosalind.
Wasn't it a win-win situation?
Why then, was he angry?
Lysander's deep gaze fixed on Thalassa. Her direct and decisive question felt like a brick, striking hard at the hope that had begun to flicker in his heart.
Anger and pain coexisted in his heart.
He wasn't one for sentimentality and rarely indulged in such emotional questions. After finally overcoming his reservations, he had asked her if the past three years meant as much to her as they did to him. Did she feel for him as deeply as she did for Hertha?
Her failure to answer was one thing, but asking about his wedding to Rosalind? Even expressing a wish to attend?
