Chapter 616

Evelyn was lost in thought when the bathroom door swung open behind her.

She quickly tucked the bank card into her pocket and casually settled back down on the couch.

“Mom, if you’re done eating, you should go take a shower and get some rest.” Thalassa suggested as she toweled off her damp hair as she made her way towards the dining table to clean up.

Evelyn stopped her. “Thalassa, I haven’t seen the kids in a couple of days. I miss them. I want to visit them.”

“Tomorrow, Mom. It’s late now, and they’re already asleep. You can pick them up from kindergarten tomorrow.”

Evelyn nodded, but her mind was clearly elsewhere. “Alright, I understand.”

The next morning, Thalassa awoke to find Evelyn still in bed. After whipping up some breakfast and grabbing a quick bite, she left for work.

No sooner had Thalassa left than Evelyn emerged from her room, clutching the bank card with a serious and hesitant expression.

Thalassa arrived at Crawley Electronics and walked into her office, inadvertently bumping into Anna, who was carrying a box.
