The mood darkened as Lysander's handsome face was shadowed by Thalassa's distant tone.
His piercing gaze fixed on her, an aura of authority surrounding him without a word of anger, he spoke, “Standing all the way over there, how do you expect to stay updated about Joshua’s condition?”
Thalassa's breath hitched, understanding Lysander's reason for calling her over was to allow her to openly show her concern for Joshua.
Her hesitations and fears were all too clear to Lysander.
Once exposed, the heaviness in her heart surprisingly lifted quite a bit.
Taking a deep breath, Thalassa let go of the pressure weighing on her heart, choosing to remain silent.
Matilda broke the silence, “Before going in, Joshua kept holding my hand, asking for all of you to come. He’s worried he might not make it…”
Her voice trailed off as she wiped away a tear.
Thalassa felt her heart tighten, her facade of calm cracking with visible concern.
Rosalind burst into tears, “So, it is really that serious. Oh, Dad, please, you have to be alright…”
Reginald, who had previously made a grim remark in the car, now felt his calm demeanor falter upon hearing his own mother speak of his father's grave injuries. He pulled out a cigarette, lighting it up and taking deep drags to stabilize his mood.
After blowing out a cloud of smoke, realizing there was another gentleman present, he offered a cigarette to Lysander.
Before Lysander could reach out, Thalassa urgently interjected, “He can’t smoke!”
