Hearing Sophia's words, Thalassa visibly shuddered, turning excitedly towards Zephyr. "Zephyr, did you hear that? Sophia said that Grandma Sybil tripped over the couch..."
Zephyr's eyes, murky with rage, glared at her. "What did you say to Sophia to make her say such a thing?"
Thalassa was taken aback, shocked, and incredulous.
Did Zephyr think that she had coached Sophia?
She hadn't told her to say anything. She was just asking her questions.
She knew her own child best. Although Sophia was usually timid and the smallest of all the kids, she never cried without reason.
Either she was scared, or she was hiding something and too afraid to speak up.
Just as she was about to explain, Lysander strode into the room. His presence was chilling and intimidating. The air around him seemed to drop in temperature.
Thalassa's heartbeat seemed to halt at the gust of wind that Lysander's entrance stirred up.
She watched him anxiously, her heart pounding as his tall figure quickly approached.
"Lysander, I..."
Before she could finish, Sophia was lifted from her arms.
Lysander's face was cold. "The driver is waiting for you outside."
He wanted her to leave.
Thalassa was getting more and more anxious. Forgetting her nervousness, she spoke. "Sophia just said that Grandma Sybil tripped over the couch. Robert clearly lied..."
Robert fell to his knees with a thud, trembling, panic-stricken. "Zephyr, Lysander, I didn't lie. I really didn't. Children's memories can be chaotic. I'm an adult. I wouldn't misinterpret, and I wouldn't lie..."
