The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

"What do we do now?" Thalassa turned to Lysander, seeking his opinion.

Realizing that Joshua had been helping Susan because they shared a child together, and Susan was using the child to manipulate Joshua, everything started to make sense. Joshua was in the dark about the child's whereabouts, but they had stumbled upon that information.

Given Susan's long list of offenses, they could apprehend her now.

However, the complication was that she had the child with her.

Susan's frantic demeanor earlier suggested she wouldn't hesitate to use the child as leverage if backed into a corner.

The fate of that child was uncertain under those circumstances.

Lysander met Thalassa's gaze, his eyes drilling into hers as he spoke in a low, magnetic tone, "What do you think?"

"Me?" Thalassa was taken aback.

"What should we do now?" Lysander clarified.

Thalassa quickly caught on-Lysander was leaving the decision up to her, considering Joshua was her father and the little boy, her half-brother.
