The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 12

“Did HR mention during your interview that the cleaning crew has to report to security?” John suddenly spoke in a tone that screamed security officer‘. “Or are you not interested in keeping this job anymore?”

Indeed, during her interview, HR did mention that the security team would occasionally call upon the cleaners for some work, and they would need to

Thalassa had just started working, and the pay was not bad. If she lost the job, she wouldn’t be able to find a new one anytime soon With four kids at home and the cost of formula still fluctuating she needed to earn money to buy winter coats.

The money she had earned with difficulty the day before, was gambled away by her mother overnight! Now they were flat broke. Without money, her kids would have to go hungry and shiver in the cold.

With no education, she had to endure the hardships of life. She was determined to properly educate her four children, to make sure they got a good education, and at least a university degree. If not, they’d end up struggling like her, earning barely enough to survive.

Because she was aware of this, she started educating her children as soon as they started talking. Now at only four years old, they knew many words Compared to their peers, their knowledge was much wider.
