Chapter 232
After Thalassa finished her words, she turned around and walked away
Ever since that night five years ago, there’s been this giant chasm between her and Leopold
His betrayal and her ordeal meant that it was impossible for them to be together again in this lifetime.
Leopold’s amie suddenly froze on hit face
Watching Thalassa’s resolute back, he felt that his heart was filled with pain.
For five years, them wasn’t a day he wasn’t thinking about her
He worked his butt off studying abroad and even busted his chops in his career, so that he could come
back, dazzling with success and be by her side
He wanted to give her a sense of security and he wanted her to look at him differently.
But she wouldn’t even spare him a glance.
No matter how well he was doing and how successful he was, it all seemed irrelevant to her

He couldn’t accept that he had no place in Thalassa’s heart.
He turned and left, his tail between his legs.
When he walked into the president’s office of the Sinclair group, Leopold saw Lysander sitting on the
couch, nursing a glass of red
wine
With a face full of gloom and sorrow, Leopold took a seat opposite Lysander. Pouring himself a drink,
he lamented, “Lysander, do you think she really doesn’t love me anymore? I’ve approached her twice,
and she won’t even chat with me.”
Leopold was feeling really bitter, and he let it all out before downing his drink.
Swirling the wine in his glass, Lysander could see his long fingers accentuated by the ruby liquid. His
eyes reflected the same shade, which were deep and mysterious.
His lips curved into a sarcastic smile, “No one can figure out women’s hearts.”
Then he downed his drink too.
Leopold caught the underlying meaning and asked curiously, “Lysander, you’ve got your eyes on a
woman? No way, who could possibly give you a hard time?”
Lysander was the one every woman in Starhaven pines for.
Many women have tried their best just for a second glance from Lysander, but not everyone was that
lucky.
Countless rich girls dreamed of becoming Lysander’s wife, but not everyone got the chance.
Could there really be a woman who gave Lysander a hard time?
Leopold was both curious and surprised.
Lysander’s eyes darkened slightly.
Was he in love with Thalassa?

He wasn’t sure. All he knew was that five years ago, she had saved his life, and he had always felt
indebted to her
Making it up to her family and relatives was another way of repaying her.
He had promiged to take responsibility for her. And he had kept his word, taking her home to meet his
relatives. Even when his grandfather looked down on her, he promoted her to be his secretary, giving
her the chance to prove herself.
But she wasn’t grateful. She’d rather pay a fine than quit.
If she was so adamant about leaving, there was no point in forcing her to stay.
Seeing Lysander lost in thought, Leopold poured him another drink.
He also poured himself a drink and said, “Lysander, women are just testing you. They don’t really reject
you, especially with your charm. Unless she already has someone else in her heart, why would she
reject a catch like you? She’s not a fool.”
Leopold drained his newly filled glass of wine.
Just thinking about Thalassa made him feel the heartache.
“Lysander, I’m really having a bad time. I was framed five years ago. My girlfriend broke up with me,
and she hadn’t forgiven me till now.
