Lysander's expression darkened momentarily, a flicker of concern passing through his deep-set eyes. He straightened up and gently pulled Thalassa to her feet, urging her to sit up properly beside him.
"Feeling any discomfort?" he inquired.
Last time, he'd been oblivious to her pregnancy and had nearly caused a miscarriage. He couldn't afford to make that mistake again.
Thalassa was taken aback to see Lysander anxious. She was actually being pampered because of her condition, a rare experience for her with Lysander.
"No, I feel quite alright," she replied.
"Hungry? What would you like to eat?" Lysander's voice was still husky, not yet back to its usual timbre.
"Anything light would be fine," Thalassa responded without fuss. She hadn't eaten since getting off work and naturally, her stomach was growling.
Times had changed; she couldn't just ignore her hunger anymore, especially with a little one growing inside her. Even if she wasn't hungry, the baby would be.
"Hmm." Lysander's voice resonated with a magnetic syllable.
He took out his phone and dialed Fitch, "Prepare a light dinner."
After giving the instructions, he hung up.
Thalassa looked at him with surprise. For the first time, she felt truly indulged—whatever she craved, he would have the kitchen whip up. Just moments ago, she couldn't stand the sight of Lysander just because she doubted that there was an affair between him and Susan.
Now that he said himself that there was nothing between them, her mood lifted substantially and she found him pleasing.
However, if there was no connection between him and Susan, why he did let Susan's harsh words slide so easily?
That was a riddle Thalassa couldn't solve.
As she watched him, Lysander's penetrating gaze suddenly met hers and made her heart skip a beat. She quickly averted her eyes, sitting up straight and pretending not to have been peering at him.
