The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 1157

After Leopold was laid to rest, indeed, she hadn’t come to visit him. She didn’t have the courage, fearing that the sight of his photograph would unleash a torrent of grief she couldn’t control.

Debby recounted her own heartaches, and Thalassa could now understand her sorrow.
