The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 912

Just when Thalassa’s heart was racing with anxiety, Lysander withdrew his gaze and turned to get back into his car. Thalassa watched his taillights fade into the night, her tight chest finally easing as she made her way back inside.

Evelyn was waiting in the living room, her face etched with concern as she approached. “What did Lysander want by showing up here so late?”

Evelyn’s eyes were a mix of tense worry and suppressed anger. She had just been through a rough patch with Bruce, who had been nothing but trouble and torment. She had lost all faith in men.

Lysander, who hadn’t given Thalassa any commitment, seemed no different than Bruce in his relentless pursuit. What was the difference, really? Bruce had a wife, and although Lysander didn’t have another woman besides Thalassa, he did have a fiancée! In Evelyn’s eyes, he was no different from Bruce!

She had pretended to be polite earlier, but in truth, she wanted Lysander gone, not wanting Thalassa to suffer any more.
