The moment Thalassa dialed the number, a phone rang just a stone's throw away. The timing was so impeccable that she couldn't help but follow the sound. She saw David approaching. Quickly hanging up, Thalassa said, "Oh, you made it. Mr. Sinclair is ready to head back. Could you give him a lift?"

David glanced at Lysander and saw his chiseled features stiffen, his eyes locked onto Thalassa. It was clear what his boss wanted. Ever the perceptive one, David caught on immediately and said, "Ms. Everhart, we're headed the same way. Why don't you join us?" "No need, I'll just grab an Uber back," Thalassa replied before walking toward the street.

David wanted to call after her, but her decision seemed final, leaving him speechless.

He awkwardly turned to Lysander, scratching his head, "Mr. Sinclair, should I, maybe, try and get Ms. Everhart to come with us?" Lysander's handsome face was cold and tense. "No need."
