Chapter 240
Thalassa and Hertha turned around
There stood a man sporting a crisp short haircut and decked out in a British suit
His handsome face radiated an aristocratic aura, his charisma second to none.
It was Leopold!
Upon seeing Leopold, Thalassa frowned, puzzled why he seemed to always pop up around her.
Hertha’s eyes lit up. She hadn’t expected Leopold to show up!
Normally, running into old classmates should be a happy occasion, but recalling how Leopold had loved Thalassa so deeply, yet betrayed her and even had an affair with Thalassa’s cousin Isabella, Hertha didn’t have a good impression on Leopold.
Debby instantly got up, a flattering smile plastered on her face, “Leopold, you’re here too. We’re so lucky to bump into you here.”
Debby’s crush on Leopold hadn’t faded, and seeing him got her all excited. Her attitude towards him was a far cry from how she treated
Thalassa
Leopold, however, didn’t even spare Debby a glance. He went straight to Thalassa’s side with a gentle smile on his face.
The bar’s neon lights played across his handsome face, illuminating his smile, and making it even more dazzling.
“Thalassa, what a coincidence. We meet again.” Leopold’s eyes were all for Thalassa
He reached out his hand, attempting to hold Thalassa’s.
Thalassa deftly dodged.
With one hand on Hertha’s arm and the other around her shoulder, both Thalassa’s hands were occupied.
Thalassa kept her distance with a forced smile, “We’re all classmates, it’s fate that brought us all here.”
Hertha nodded, “Exactly.”
Leopold understood that Thalassa was rejecting him, because her attitude towards him remained cold.
Hertha was fed up with Debby’s condescending attitude, “I’m afraid once I tell you, you’ll be shocked.”
Thalassa had a bad feeling. She discreetly tugged at Hertha’s sleeve, signaling her to stop.
But Hertha was too excited to notice her warning.
“Spit it out then. Debby taunted.
Hertha stood tall and proud, “Thalassa’s boyfriend is none other than the CEO of the Sinclair group, Lysander! How about that, scared you, didn’t I?”
Hertha laughed triumphantly.
Thalassa choked a bit. Why did Hertha have to spill everything?
