Chapter 408
When Thalassa woke up the next day, she was still in the arms of Lysander.
Her head nestled on one of his arms, while his other arm draped over her, encircling her waist, h. His
large hand gently resteding on her stomach.
His palm was warm and slightly damp.
He held her tightly, cocooning her like a burrito.
His masculine scent that which held a hint of sandalwood lingered around her.
The foreboding sense of danger that she felt the previous day returned in full force.
Thalassa tried to move, intending to get out of bed, but felt a slight pain in her waist. His arm was too
heavy, squashing her.
A frown creased Thalassa’s beautiful brows. She took hold of Lysander’s arm, planning to carefully
move it off her.

Thalassa spun around, meeting Lysander’s deep, and sleep-filled eyes.
She paused, explaining, “It’s morning, time for work.”
Lysander withdrew his hand from her, sat up, and rubbed his temples. His overwhelming presence
made Thalassa freeze in place.
With the smallest movements, she got out of bed.
She left the room, relieved that Lysander didn’t make things difficult for her.
While she was brushing her teeth in the bathroom, Lysander’s imposing figure appeared at the door,
and the atmosphere instantly tensed.
Thalassa turned around instinctively, seeing Lysander standing at the doorway.
With toothpaste foam in her mouth, she mumbled, “Good morning…”
After she finished speaking, she quickly rinsed her mouth,. She spit out the foam, cleaned her
toothbrush, and placed it back on the sink.
Lysander walked in, his deep voice asked, “Do you have a new toothbrush?”
Thalassa was taken aback and hurriedly replied, “No, I can go buy one for you.”
As she tried to leave, Lysander’s words stopped her in her tracks, “No need.”
Thalassa turned around, only to see him pick up her just-used toothbrush, squeeze out some
toothpaste, and start brushing his teeth….
Thalassa was stunned, incredulous.
He was using her toothbrush!
Wasn’t this basically the same as an indirect kiss?
Thalassa’s heart skipped a beat, s. She quickly placed her hand over her heart, trying her best to stay
calm.
She went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast..

As she moved around the house, she took a quick look around. All of her baby’s things were packed
neatly, not leaving any trace that any children lived here.
This way, she didn’t have to worry about Lysander discovering any clues.
She quickly whipped up some canned beans on toast and served it.
Just as Lysander finished getting ready, she said, “Mr. Sinclair, breakfast is ready.”
Lysander glanced at the two plates of beans on toast on the table, his deep eyes unreadable.
Seeing that he didn’t move to join her, Thalassa remembered what he had said back in Hollowbrook,
that their kind of food didn’t suit his palate.
She suddenly felt flustered and said, “This is all we have at home. If Mr. Sinclairyou don’t doesn’t like it,
then I can eat it myself…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Lysander had already sat down, taken a spoon, and tasted the
beans.
His actions left Thalassa feeling somewhat taken aback.
She too sat down and silently ate her breakfast.
After eating, she cleaned up the dishes.
When she came out of the kitchen, she saw that Lysander was still sitting at the table. He got up and
left only when he saw her coming out.
