Chapter 461 

Thalassa got his drift. “Thank you.” 

She started sipping the chicken soup from her bowl. 

Across the table, Richard watched their interaction with a smile on his face, not saying anything. 

It seemed Lysander’s luck with women had truly turned around. 

He put down his utensils and brought up the serious matter at hand. With a stern face, he addressed Lysander. “Lysander, when I was at the antique auction last time, I noticed your butler was looking for someone to restore an antique. It seems a circular pendant has gone missing.” 

The Draven family had been dealing in antiques for generations, and they had opened countless curio shops. Their business mainly revolved around buying and selling antiques. 

After Richard took over the Draven Group, he was busy with the antique business every day. 

Lysander glanced at him when he had a moment, replying, “Hmm.” 

Yesterday, my curio shop received a circular pendant. It looked similar to the one in the picture that Fitch showed me, so I brought it here for you to see.” Saying this, Richard took the circular pendant out of his pocket and held it open in his palm. 

Fitch stepped forward, took the circular pendant from his hand, and walked around the dining table to give it to Lysander. 

Lysander looked at the front of the circular pendant, then turned it over to examine the back. 

Thalassa couldn’t resist her curiosity. She sneaked a peek at the circular pendant in Lysander’s hand, finding it somewhat familiar. 

“This is it. My family’s circular pendant. How did it end up in someone else’s hand and even get sold?” Lysander’s eyes were deep and cold as he looked at Richard. 

Richard shrugged, saying, “I don’t know anything about that. That’s an internal matter for the Royal Estates.” 

Lysander was not pleased, and his aura became chilly. 

The circular pendant was a small matter, but what he couldn’t tolerate was betrayal. 

His family had a traitor! 

Lysander threw the circular pendant onto the table. The sound of the jade hitting the marble table was a crisp and luxurious clash. 

Thalassa was afraid that the circular pendant would break, but it spun around a few times on the table before coming to a stop. It was still perfectly intact. 

Now that it was safe and sound, she felt a sense of relief. 

“Fitch, the loss of the circular pendant is a great responsibility that falls on you.” Lysander’s frosty gaze fell on the butler standing beside him. 

Fitch was immediately petrified and bowed to show his guilt. “I failed in my duty to watch over the antique. I’m willing to accept punishment. Please give me a chance to find out who stole and sold the circular pendant and bring the culprit to justice.” 

Richard realized that Lysander was going to hold someone accountable and find the traitor. 

“I’ll call the shopkeeper right away to check yesterday’s transaction records. Once we see who sold the circular pendant, everything will be clear” 

He made a call to the shopkeeper of the curio shop. Soon, the surveillance footage was sent to him. 

Richard opened the video, and the person dealing with the shopkeeper in the footage made him blink in disbelief. 

He quickly stood up and handed his phone to Lysander. 

When Lysander saw the video, his face darkened instantly. 

His icy gaze, which was filled with suppressed anger, shot towards Thalassa. 

Thalassa, who was sipping her chicken soup, suddenly felt a chiltrun down her spine. 

Instinctively, she turned around and saw Lysander’s dark, handsome face, his aura as cold as ice. 

His sharp and cold gaze was fixed on her. 

Her heart started to race in fear, and a coldness spread along her spine. Confused, she asked, “Is there something on my face?” 

Saying this, she quickly put down her bowl and reached up to touch her face.
