Thalassa caught Lysander's gaze, which was heavy with a mix of pressure and suspicion.

Her heart fluttered uneasily under his scrutiny. Flustered, she said, "Lydia is just performing a routine check-up. It's not really anyone's place to interfere. Too much meddling could cloud her judgment. Rosalind I'd advise you to keep it down. You're disrupting her concentration."
