Chapter 32
He held his forehead with his hand, feeling a bit of a headache.
Why did he need blood? Was he running low?
Even David was surprised that this woman was willing to risk her own life to pay her debts
Now, he had no idea what to do, his only choice was to wait for lysander to make the decision.
Lysander remained silent, speaking in a cold voice, Just compensate some loose change.”
For that family, this “loose change” was enough to make them anxious, a wake-up call to remember the lesson.
Hearing this, David immediately said to his phone, “Alright, stop the waterworks, our boss is a good guy, considering the kids don’t know any better and have lost their father, you guys can pay $3000, and we’ll call it even”
Hearing that Mr. Sinclair wasn’t demanding a huge compensation anymore, David was actually happy for that family.
A woman raising four kids, it really aint easy.
“$3000.” Hertha repeated, then she glanced at Thalassa.
Thalassa was nodding like crazy
Hertha said, “Alright, I’ll go borrow the money from someone, and later this afternoon Ill go to your company personally to apologize to Mr. Sinclair.”
“Mm.” Once they agreed, David hung up.
Here, after hearing the phone being hung up, Hertha quickly wiped away
ay her tears, excitedly saying to Thalassa, “We don’t have to pay $23,000 anymore, only $3,000 is needed.”
Twenty grand, that would really have put Thalassa in a tight spot.
Hertha didn’t have that much money at the moment either.
But $3,000, they could handle that.
Thalassa also breathed a sigh of relief, wiping away the tears on her face, it really wasn’t easy”
Seeing Thalassa’s heartache and difficulty, Hertha walked over, hugging Thalassa, comforting her with a silent hug.
Thalassa smiled, “It’s alright, isn’t it all solved now?”
Just as she finished speaking, she felt her leg tighten, being hugged by the kids
She looked down, seeing the four kids, one after another, hugging her legs.
Hertha also saw the kids hugging Thalassa, so she let go of Thalassa and stepped aside.
Elowen was still sobbing, her young face red from crying, all tears, her snot almost running into her mouth, her eyes filled with fear and tension, “Mom, we werent naughty. A lady kept chasing us and she was really mean. I was scared so I ran and accidentally dropped something…”
Elowen choked up. explaining to Thalassa, she was afraid her mom would say she was not good and didn’t want her.
She didnt want to leave her mom.
The little girl was weak and helpless, full of unease.
Dorian also cried, “Yes, that lady was so scary, she was so mean. We just went to find Lysander, to ask if he’s our dad.”
Hearing this, Thalassa was shocked and heartbroken.
She crouched down, holding the little ones in her arms, wiping away the tears on Elowen’s face with her hand, her soft voice soothing her, “Elawen, don’t cry, I’m not mad at you, and I won’t abandon you, don’t worry.”
As she spoke, she lovingly kissed her little face, “I love you guys very much. How could I ever abandon you?”
After gently saying this, she looked at Dorian and said softly. “Dorian, stop crying, as the brother, you need to set a good example for your
She lightly stroked his head.
Dorian stopped crying, his eyes filled with tears as he asked Thalassa, “Mom, is Lysander our dad?*
