The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 857

Thalassa drew in a deep breath, gritted her teeth and said, “I’ve made plans to meet Hertha at the pub, so I won’t be heading to Royal Estates with you.”

Even though it was Lysander who’d invited her initially, she just wanted to stand him up. After all, she hadn’t promised him anything, let alone to go with him to Royal Estates after work.

She had her own life, and it wasn’t like she would do everything the way he wanted!

As soon as Thalassa finished her words, she could feel the tension oozing from the other end of the phone. Even through the screen, Lysander’s displeasure was palpable. Thalassa held her breath, readying herself for his wrath and preparing for a fight back.

“Alright,” Lysander finally responded after a pause, then hung up abruptly.

Thalassa tossed her phone onto the seat beside her, glanced at the entrance of the Crawley Group, steered the wheel, and drove off.

Thalassa had been bracing for Lysander’s fury. She had even prepared a few rebuttals in her mind, ready to strike back.

But to her surprise, all she got was a resigned ‘alright’ before he ended the call.

He wasn’t angry at all.
