Thalassa’s pupils trembled, and she quickly stepped back, putting distance between herself and Callum. As she rose to her feet, her gaze locked onto the approaching figure of Lysander. Her body stiffened, and her words began to falter, "You know, Lysander..."
Before she could finish, her arm was seized, and she was pulled towards Lysander. His tall and imposing figure stood before Callum, towering over him with a chilling aura.
"Seems Mr. Gordon has taken quite an interest in Ms. Everhart?" Lysander's dominating gaze flickered towards Callum.
A subtle stiffness crept onto Callum's smiling face as he rose to meet Lysander's gaze, remarking, "Ms. Everhart is beautiful and unattached. Naturally, she draws the eye of eligible bachelors. The first time I saw her, I was captivated by her grace. In passing conversation, I learned she was single. Being a single man myself, pursuing Ms. Everhart wouldn’t be considered out of line, would it?"
Thalassa gasped, incredulously staring at Callum.
What was he saying? When had he ever pursued her? Wasn't this just fuel to Lysander's fire?
She darted a quick glance at Callum, then anxiously back to Lysander, whose handsome face was dark as a storm cloud, his gaze sharp as a hawk's, piercing through Callum with icy precision.
But Callum did not flinch, maintaining a smile in his eyes as the tension crackled in the air.
Thalassa stood to the side, her heart pounding with nerves, fearing the clash that might erupt between the two men.
"Lysander, I was just..."
Thalassa began to explain, but Lysander's grip on her arm tightened, pulling her close. His hand encircled her waist, drawing her close to him.
She struggled briefly, but his grip was like a vise, leaving her immobile.
Lysander's deep, frosty eyes bore into Callum's as he asserted his claim, "Who says she's single? She's the mother of my four children! No one but me has any right to come near her!"
Callum's smile remained unshaken, his demeanor still gentle, but his words carried weight, "That's debatable. A couple without feelings for each other should still be able to pursue their own love lives even after having children. As for the children, they can be co-parented."
