Chapter 135
Greta said, “Yesterday while I was cleaning the gutters, I stumbled upon this emerald pendant, shaped
like a cloud. Were you looking for
this?”
Upon hearing this, Thalassa’s mind went into disarray, and her entire body stiffened. This cloud-shaped
emerald pendant was left to her by the children’s father as a token to find him. Over the years, she had
never found it, and she had lost hope and stopped searching for it. She had planned to raise the kids
on her own, live a quiet and stable life.
Even without a father, she would give the kids double the love, making up for their lack of a paternal
figure.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe had accepted this reality, not expecting to find their father anymore. But now, her neighbor was
telling her she found the emerald pendant. Thalassa was feeling a mix of surprise, joy, disbelief, and
worry.
“Thalassa, why so quiet? Don’t need this emerald pendant anymore? Then …” Greta started to nudge,
sensing Thalassa’s silence.
Snapping back to reality. Thalassa quickly said, “I need it, of course I need it. Greta, please keep it safe
for me. I’ll be right over. I can’t thank you enough”
Hearing Thalassa’s response, Greta contentedly said, “Okay, hurry up then. I’ll wait for you.”
After hanging up, Thalassa was both excited and nervous. She went to the living room and told her
mother Evelyn, “Mom, I need to head back to the village. Now.”
“What’s the rush? Something happened back home?” Evelyn was puzzled at Thalassa’s frantic
demeanor.
Thalassa never mentioned the children’s father or the emerald pendant to Evelyn. Caught off guard,
she quickly said, “Something important came up. I need to go back immediately.”
As she spoke, she started putting on her shoes, ready to leave. Finding the emerald pendant meant
possibly finding the children’s father. The painful memories from five years ago had passed. The kids
longed for a father’s company. Even though Thalassa didn’t want to revisit the past, she now had to
face it.
Evelyn stood up, “Thalassa, I’ll come with you. I’ve been here for a while and want to check on the
house.”
“Mommy, I want to go too. Dorian jumped off the couch, his eyes full of anticipation.
“Mommy, me too.” Atticus joined in.

“Mommy, me too.” Sophia chimed in.
Seeing her family’s eager eyes, Thalassa nodded, “Okay, we’ll all go back. I’ll rent a car and we’ll head
straight there. Because of the urgency, she decided to rent a car instead of taking the train.
Soon the family of seven arrived at their hometown.
Upon reaching the village, Thalassa noticed the changes. The old dirt roads were now concrete,
leading straight to her doorstep.
They got out of the car, and Thalassa was shocked at the sight. Astrid exclaimed in surprise, “Oh my
gosh, where’s our bouse? Where did our house go?”
She anxiously looked around, but the old house was nowhere in sight, and she started to tremble. She
was only gone for a while, and the house disappeared.
Thalassa scanned the area, finally resting her gaze on a tall villa in front of her. Looking up at this four-
story villa, she murmured in awe. ‘Could this be… our house?”
