Chapter 402
Thalassa’s face held a soft smile that stiffened slightly at the sight of Zephyr. She prepared to greet
him, but he didn’t give her the chance. His eyes were filled with disgust and prejudice, a. A sharp, and
piercing gaze that passed over her and moved on.
His look was like a handful of salt thrown on the wounded heart of Thalassa, making the pain even
more intense and unbearable.

and stepped inside.

“I didn’t take a day off.” She stepped out of the elevator and then realized who might have called in sick
for her. She quickly retraced her steps and asked David, “What did Mr. Sinclair say?”
David gave a light laugh, “He didn’t say anything. But, I think you should check in with him first.”
“Why?” Thalassa asked.
“You’ll figure it out,” he said, stepping into the elevator and closing the door behind him.
Thalassa hesitated, but eventually decided to follow David’s advice. After all, Davidhe had been
working with Lysander for years and probably knew him better.
She knocked on the door of the office. When she heard a low voiceman permitting her to enter in a low
voice, she pushed the door open and said, “Mr: Sinclair, should I prepare the conference room?”
Thalassa reported in a professional tone.
Recognizing her voice, Lysander paused, his pen in his hand. He looked up, his eyes deep and
focused on her.
Her oval face was still clean and innocent, but it carried a unique charm. Her long, and split wrap skirt
accentuated her slender lower body, showing off her curvy hips and straight, fair legs. It was subtly
seductive and appealing.
He remembered how she had been fired from the Sinclair gGroup by Zephyr, not because she wanted
to leave, but because Zephyr gave her a severance package of ten thousand dollars.
And to the company, Zephyr had said that Thalassa had quit on her own, even willing to pay a penalty
of twenty thousand dollars.

Now seeing her againher reappearance, stirred a warm ripple stirred in his heart.
He gestured for her to come over. “Come here.”.
Remembering how he had pulled her onto his lap the last time he called her over, Thalassa tensed up.
Her heart was pounding, but she didn’t dare to disobey Lysander’s order. She walked over to the edge
of the desk and asked cautiously, “Mr. Sinclair, how may I assist you?”
“Why are you at work with an injury!?” Lysander’s words carried a hint of reprimand.
If she didn’t know how much he hated her, and all the things he did to make her life difficult, Thalassa
might have thought he was concerned about her.
