The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Joshua's oversight was peculiar, to say the least. In the midst of introducing his youngest son, he somehow forgot to mention Thalassa. It seemed like Thalassa was also making her first visit to pay respects at Harper's grave.

He had introduced every member of his family to Harper, except for Thalassa.

No wonder Lysander had raised an eyebrow.

After Joshua's admission, Lysander shot him a look that was neither here nor there, devoid of reproach yet not entirely forgiving either.

Lucas, ever the peacemaker, chimed in with a grin, "Yeah, Thalassa's part of the Whitman family too. We've known that for the past three years. And hey, my brother went public about Thalassa being his daughter in front of the whole world." Lucas might not have been in close contact with Joshua's family on a daily basis, but he was well-informed about the significant events in their lives.

He also kept an eye on the news about Joshua's family.

He had seen the live broadcast of the jewelry competition, where Joshua had defended Thalassa against accusations of fraud, denying she used fake materials in her designs, and publicly acknowledged her as his daughter. Hearing Lucas's words, Thalassa glanced at Joshua.

In that moment, some of the hurt inside her melted away, warming a cold corner of her heart.
