The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 422

Having finished, Thalassa began to rise, only to be abruptly stopped by Leopold, who grasped her hand fiercely.

His palm was slightly damp and feverishly warm.

Startled, Thalassa reflexively yanked her hand back, her voice a passionate outcry, “Leopold, I’ve made things clear. If you are under the impression that I saved you when I stopped the car that day, let me correct you now. It wasn’t about you. I did it because Isabella called for help. I would do the same for any stranger in danger, not just because it was you!”

Thalassa was desperate to make him understand. Her eyes, brimming with earnestness, bore into his.

She wanted him to let go.
