Lysander's mysterious eyes, filled with a piercing intensity, swept over Payne. "How many kids do you have with your ex-wife?"
Payne was purposely irritating him, trying to get him to reveal his relationship with Thalassa.
But instead of getting angry, Lysander changed the subject and asked Payne about his children.
"Two. The brother is two years older than the sister." Payne answered.
"I have four. Quadruplets! Their mother is the woman you just met!" Lysander's eyes were deep as he stared at Payne, not directly bragging, but it was clearly depicted in his expression and words.
Payne was slightly taken aback, then chuckled, giving Lysander's shoulder a light pat. "Good for you, man. Since she's the mother of your kids, I can wait a bit longer for her. Who knows, she might become your ex-girlfriend."
"Bugger off!" Lysander aimed a kick at him.
Payne dodged, his face impassive but his words full of teasing, "Lysander, your speed isn't up to scratch. Haven't practiced in years, have you? How did you end up with quadruplets?"
Lysander's handsome face became gloomy, staring at Payne. "Meet me in the hotel's coffee room. We need to talk."
He strode towards the coffee room, Payne following him with a slight smile.
Standing by the buffet table, Thalassa watched as Lysander and Payne left, feeling a bit lost. So Lysander and Payne knew each other.
And they seemed to be quite close.
No wonder Payne seemed so nonchalant when she was discussing the case with him earlier. As if he had no interest in it at all.
He even said he wasn't afraid of Lysander's power, but that he was just uninterested.
