Atticus Sinclair thought his mom was just being sweet, so he happily made his way over to Thalassa.

Thalassa grabbed his hand, pulling him close to her and Lysander, and with a cool tone, she said to Callum, "Mr. Gordon, regardless, thanks for sticking up for me earlier." With that, she was ready to leave with Atticus in tow.
