Once again, Amelia's snide remark that Thalassa was just a country bumpkin stung deeper than she cared to admit.
Her brows furrowed, and she shot Amelia a look of displeasure.
"What are you staring at? Did I say something wrong?" Amelia snapped and rolled her eyes.
Lysander slammed his bowl of chicken soup onto the nightstand with a thud that resonated through the room, commanding attention.
Amelia's bravado wavered under Lysander's imposing presence. Her face morphed into a mix of flattery and deference as she addressed him, "I may have been a bit harsh just now, but everyone knows Thalassa wormed her way into your life with her cunning. Just look at Faye; she's been pining for you for a decade. You joined the army, and she enlisted, too, to be close to you. You became a CEO, and she was right there as your secretary. Ten years, and she hasn't managed to secure a proper place by your side, let alone the right to bear your children.
And Charlotte, she adored you. She was betrothed to you, promised through a deal between Zephyr and the Ravensong family. But Zephyr called off the engagement in public because of Thalassa's schemes. She's out to eliminate all the women around you!"
According to Amelia, both Faye and Charlotte had already been intimate with Lysander. It was completely normal for a rich man like him to be surrounded by women.
But they were not good enough to be favored by Lysander and have his child.
Faye had it worse, not even a title to her name.
Then Thalassa appeared. In just a few months, she had ousted Faye, dismissed Charlotte, and ascended to her position.
Amelia didn't hide her resentment and disdain for Thalassa as she spilled her thoughts to Lysander.
She was trying to open Lysander's eyes to Thalassa's true nature, to make him despise her, and ideally, cast her out and leave her with nothing.
