The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

At that moment, without any leverage and knowing she couldn't get the two million, her gaze turned hollow, and she seemed like a shadow of her former self, wandering aimlessly. She looked at Thalassa and Lysander standing at the doorway with lifeless eyes, "Are you satisfied now?"

"What is there to be satisfied about?" Lysander's voice was cold as ice. "Letting a kidnapper use hostages to extort money for a second time is my greatest failure!"

Susan's pupils dilated, sensing danger, "What do you mean?"

Before her confusion could clear, two police officers appeared at the door, "We've received a tip-off that the fugitive Susan is here."

At this, Thalassa quickly nudged Lysander aside, making way for the officers, declaring, "She's Susan."

The officers moved in swiftly, apprehending Susan before she even had a chance to flee.

The cold handcuffs clasped around Susan's wrists, her expression a mix of panic and fear, "You've got the wrong person, I'm not a fugitive!"
