The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 273

If Noreen helped Charlotte this time, once Charlotte became Mrs. Sinclair, she would naturally return the favor to Noreen.

Under Charlotte's pressures and promises, Noreen agreed to her request.

Unexpectedly, she ended up getting a front-row seat to some drama.

After leaving the restaurant, Thalassa forcefully shook off Leopold's arm from her shoulder. "Don't get so close. I don't want people getting the wrong idea."

Although she appreciated Leopold's help earlier, it didn't mean she was okay with his affectionate actions.

Leopold flashed a satisfied smile. "I don't mind the misunderstanding. No need to explain, we can let the misunderstanding become reality."

Thalassa glared at him. "You may not mind it, but I do."

She had decided to keep Leopold at arm's length with no strings attached, not giving him any false hopes.

She was done with him and she feared Lysander.

If Lysander knew they were this close, how he might react?

With that, Thalassa strode off.

Leopold followed her. "Let's make our relationship public. Then no one will misunderstand, and we won't get weird looks."

Thalassa stopped in her tracks, once again clarifying, "Leopold, how many times do I have to tell you? We can't be together, and don't waste your time on me."

"Why?" asked Leopold, his gaze cold, staring at her seriously.

"Because," Thalassa was about to mention her four kids, but she realized it was a secret she couldn't casually reveal.

Leopold was heartbroken. He saw Thalassa getting further away, but he swallowed his pain and caught up with her. "Thalassa, let me take you home."

Without turning her head, Thalassa replied, "No need."

Yet Leopold grabbed her wrist, led her to the car, opened the door, and pushed her in.

He got in the car himself and locked the doors.

His swift actions caught Thalassa off guard. By the time she responded, the car door had already been shut.

She glared at him angrily. "Leopold, how many times do I have to tell you! Stop seeking me out!"

"Do you believe it was a coincidence that I ran into you at the restaurant?" Leopold asked.
