The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

"So, what's your plan now? Keep letting Alaric be in the dark, or are you going to spill the beans?" Thalassa couldn't believe it either. Alaric actually thought Hertha's baby was fathered by someone else.

The ball was in Hertha's court now.

"I'm really torn," Hertha admitted. "If I tell him, I'm scared he'll try to take my baby away. If I don't, it eats me up inside being misunderstood like this. What must he think of me, to jump to the conclusion that the baby is someone else's!"

Thinking about it got Hertha both angry and frustrated.

The idea of her image being so tarnished in Alaric's eyes bothered her more than she wanted to admit, leaving her heartbroken.

"I get where you're coming from," Thalassa, having been through her fair share of troubles, could empathize with Hertha's situation.

"Ugh, Thalassa, what should I do?" Hertha was at her wit's end.
