Thalassa got his drift. "Thank you."
She started sipping the chicken soup from her bowl.
Across the table, Richard watched their interaction with a smile on his face, not saying anything.
It seemed Lysander's luck with women had truly turned around.
He put down his utensils and brought up the serious matter at hand. With a stern face, he addressed Lysander. "Lysander, when I was at the antique auction last time, I noticed your butler was looking for someone to restore an antique. It seems a circular pendant has gone missing."
The Draven family had been dealing in antiques for generations, and they had opened countless curio shops. Their business mainly revolved around buying and selling antiques.
After Richard took over the Draven Group, he was busy with the antique business every day.
Lysander glanced at him when he had a moment, replying, "Hmm."
"Yesterday, my curio shop received a circular pendant. It looked similar to the one in the picture that Fitch showed me, so I brought it here for you to see." Saying this, Richard took the circular pendant out of his pocket and held it open in his palm.
Fitch stepped forward, took the circular pendant from his hand, and walked around the dining table to give it to Lysander.
Lysander looked at the front of the circular pendant, then turned it over to examine the back.
Thalassa couldn't resist her curiosity. She sneaked a peek at the circular pendant in Lysander's hand, finding it somewhat familiar.
"This is it. My family's circular pendant. How did it end up in someone else’s hand and even get sold?" Lysander's eyes were deep and cold as he looked at Richard.
Richard shrugged, saying, "I don't know anything about that. That's an internal matter for the Royal Estates."
Lysander was not pleased, and his aura became chilly.
The circular pendant was a small matter, but what he couldn't tolerate was betrayal.
His family had a traitor!
