NovelOnlineLysander's voice was firm and brooked no argument.
Thalassa couldn't help but look up at Lysander, and for sreason, when she heard him speak those words, she felt a sense of relief wash over her.
Rosalind felt her heart sink, filled with discomfort and a sense of humiliation. Her mother had meant well, attempting to assert her position in front of Thalassa by having Lysander acknowledge her as his fiancée, aiming to make Thalassa tone down her behavior and understand who the real lady of the Sinclair household was! It was supposed to be a win-win move, securing Lysander's acknowledgment while putting Thalassa in her place.

Matilda, faced with rejection, was also taken aback. She was about to speak when the emergency room doors opened, drawing everyone's attention to the entrance.
A doctor in a white coat emerged, and as Thalassa moved forward to inquire, Matilda and Rosalind rushed to the doctor first.
"How's my dad doing?" "Doctor, is my husband alright?" Rosalind and Matilda asked anxiously.
NOW PLAY YOUR FAVOURITE GAMES ON Thalassa took a few steps forward then stopped, her gaze anxiously fixed on the doctor, but she remained silent. Because in front of the doctor, there was no space for her, and she had no right to openly show concern for Joshua. She was merely an illegitimate daughter, having only dined with the Reed family a couple of times, and Joshua had only shown her sporadic care. Even if she had rushed to the doctor, what could she have said? Claim Joshua as her father? She hadn't even called him 'dad' once.
Lysander remained where he was, his deep gaze fixed on Thalassa. Her hesitant, concerned yet insecure demeanor caught his eye, stirring emotions deep within him like a stone thrown into a lake, creating ripples of empathy and pain. Thalassa had never experienced a father's love, and now that she had finally found her father, she still had to act so humbly and cautiously.
In contrast to Rosalind, who had been cherished and adored by her parents, Thalassa was like a water lily on the lake, having to fend for herself from a young age, without a father's love and a mother too occupied with her own life to care. Perhaps understanding what it was like to grow up without parental affection made Lysander empathize with Thalassa's situation even more, and it was this understanding that made him feel even more for her.
The doctor removed his mask and told Matilda and Rosalind, "The surgery was a success, the patient is out of danger, and with a month of rest, he should recover fully." Hearing that Joshua was safe, Thalassa heaved a deep sigh of relief, her tense shoulders finally relaxing.

Matilda was profusely thankful, "Thank you, doctor, I can't thank you enough." Her son being a disappointment, Matilda couldn't bear the thought of losing Joshua. If something happened to Joshua, the Reed Group would be thrown into chaos, and Reginald was not capable of handling the situation. The Reed Group needed Joshua at the helm now more than ever.
"Thank goodness, mom, dad's going to be alright," Rosalind said, relieved. She then quickly turned and walked over to Lysander, kneeling down, grabbing his hand with tears in her eyes, and said emotionally, "Lysander, my dad's going to be fine, the doctor said he's out of danger, I'm so relieved..." "Uh-huh," Lysander responded, his voice carrying a single syllable filled with a multitude of unsaid words.
