Chapter 1076
Lost in a sea of conflicting thoughts, Thalassa was brought back to reality by the sound of the hospital
room door opening. Someone had come in.
With her keen senses, Thalassa glanced toward the door and saw Evelyn and Hertha stride in, their
faces etched with urgent concern.
Evelyn rushed to Thalassa’s bedside with an anxious expression, tenderly taking her hand. “Thalassa, I
was beside myself when I heard you were hospitalized. You were fine at lunch, what on earth
happened that you ended up here?”
She held Thalassa’s hand, squeezing it gently as if trying to transfer some of her own warmth to
Thalassa’s chilly fingers.
I’m okay, Mom. How did you find out I was in the hospital? Who told you?” Thalassa was curious. She
hadn’t been at the hospital long and had come straight from the Royal Estates. If Lysander hadn’t said

“Remember I saved Fitch’s number? I called him to check on you and the kids, and he told me you
were admitted,” Evelyn explained, her gaze full of sorrow as she examined Thalassa’s bruised chin.
“Your chin is all purple. Did Lysander hit you?”
“What? Lysander hit you? That scoundrel!” Hertha flared up upon hearing Evelyn’s words, rolling up her
sleeves in a huff. “I swear, if I see Lysander, I’m gonna give him a piece of my mind!”
Thalassa appreciated Hertha’s protective rage, knowing she truly cared and wanted to defend her, but
the thought of anyone standing up to Lysander seemed outlandish. She hurried to reassure Evelyn and
Hertha, “It’s not what you think. Lysander didn’t hit me.”
“Then what’s with your chin? And why were you suddenly hospitalized?” Hertha pressed, eager for
answers.
Thalassa looked at Evelyn, who was seated beside her bed holding her hand, then turned her gaze to
Hertha standing nearby, her face filled with worry.
The profound and genuine concern in their eyes overwhelmed her.
In their compassionate gaze, Thalassa’s battered heart felt instantly mended.
She was loved and worried about by her family: she was fortunate.
“Lysander was questioning why I ran away. He grabbed my chin a bit too hard, and I bruise easily. I’m
in the hospital for a precautionary measure to safeguard the pregnancy,” Thalassa explained calmly,
her tone more comforting than alarmed.
“What, you’re pregnant again?”
“What, you’re pregnant again?”

Hertha and Evelyn exclaimed in unison, both staring at Thalassa with a mixture of astonishment and

Once the surprise settled, Hertha eagerly reached out to touch Thalassa’s belly, her palm resting on
the soft curve. “You mean to say there’s a new life-or rather, lives-growing in there?”
Evelyn’s face went pale with worry, “You’re pregnant again?”
Thalassa’s first pregnancy had been a harrowing experience, delivering quadruplets and barely making
it through alive. The thought of her going through that ordeal again was terrifying.
Instead of feeling joy at the news of the pregnancy, Evelyn’s first reaction was concern for Thalassa’s
well-being and whether she could survive another trip through the gauntlet.
Smiling, Thalassa nodded at Hertha, who bent over to feel her stomach, and then at Evelyn, who had
stepped back to give Hertha space. “Yes, Mom. The kids are going to have little brothers or sisters.
