A sharp gust of wind whistled past Thalassa's arm, and she braced herself for the imminent piercing pain.
Suddenly, the piercing wind ceased, and the anticipated pain never came.
Even the air seemed to freeze.
Thalassa lowered her arm and opened her eyes to see a tall figure standing before her. Lysander's big hand was clenching the leg of a chair mere inches from her.
If it were not for Lysander's intervention, her arm would definitely have been punctured by the chair leg.
Witnessing the man's sudden appearance in front of her, Lucy contracted her fierce eyes in shock.
Lysander shoved the chair aside, sending Lucy stumbling backward. The chair clattered to the ground, echoing loudly.
Lysander's deep and cold gaze fell on her as he said, "Breaking into private property and causing trouble. That's at least a three-year sentence!"
"I..." Lucy was intimidated by the strong aura of the man before her. Just as she was about to say something, her daughter stepped forward, gripping her arm, and signaled her to remain silent.
Her daughter, Susan, also Bruce's daughter, worked as a PR executive in an international corporation. She was pretty knowledgeable about the business world.
Of course, she recognized Lysander.
Sensing the threat, she stopped Lucy from further speaking. With a forced smile, she timidly apologized to Lysander, "We acted impulsively. We will not repeat such reckless behavior. We are really sorry."
Lysander's cold gaze met hers, his voice authoritative as he said, "I'm not the one you should be apologizing to."
Susan stopped abruptly and turned around. Her voice was stern as she said, "Mom, do you realize the trouble we almost caused?"
"What trouble?" Lucy was still breathing heavily with anger.
"Do you know who was that man who suddenly appeared and protected Thalassa?" Susan asked Lucy.
"Who? His majesty?" Lucy retorted sarcastically.
"Almost. He is the king of this world. That's Lysander Sinclair, the CEO of the Sinclair group and basically the king of Starhaven. He could destroy anyone with a flick of his wrist." Susan had only seen Lysander in magazines and on television and heard numerous rumors about him.
"Wait, he is Lysander Sinclair?" Lucy's face turned pale with shock.
