The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 386

In the living room, only Thalassa and Hertha remained.

Hertha's round eyes were filled with excitement as she pulled a chair next to Thalassa. With a jittery smile, she asked her, "Did you really smash Lysander's artifact?"

Thalassa nodded, her energy drained.

Hertha was flabbergasted, "Oh my gosh, Thalassa, I'm seriously in awe of you. After all this, Lysander hasn't done anything to you. He must really adore you."

Hertha was known for her dirty jokes.

Thalassa blushed at the comment, averting her gaze. She felt slightly embarrassed and guilty.

Seeing her blush, Hertha, as an adult, immediately understood. She gasped in surprise, "Don't tell me you and Lysander have already, um?"

Before she could finish, Thalassa immediately covered her mouth. Glancing at the closed door, she whispered, "Keep it down."

Even though Evelyn was usually very strict with Thalassa, deep down, she loved her. If she found out Thalassa was being bullied, Evelyn would undoubtedly confront the culprit without a second thought.

And that culprit was Lysander.

Lysander was the king of Starhaven. Who could possibly stand against him?

Hertha quickly nodded, signaling that she understood.

Thalassa then let go of her mouth.

Hertha leaned in closer. Curiosity and surprise were etched on her face, "Did Lysander gift you that BMW?"

Thalassa nodded and whispered, "I initially returned it, but he forced it on me. Don't tell my mom. She thinks it’s a company car, and that I work at Leossa Tech."

Hertha understood, and exclaimed in awe, "Lysander really treats you well. He forced upon you a million-dollar car. He really treasures you."

Thalassa felt embarrassed and helpless, "Stop teasing me."

Meanwhile, in the children's room.

The dark night was bathed in a gentle moonlight, the room dimly lit. Two adorable children sat there, their innocent dark eyes shimmering in the night, smart and cute.

Dorian leaned towards Atticus, whispering, "Mom owes Lysander 100 million dollars. She’s really troubled."

Atticus' young face scrunched in worry. He was concerned for his mom.

"We need to help her, otherwise she'll go to jail," Atticus said, seemingly wise beyond his years.

He had overheard Thalassa, Evelyn, and Hertha's conversation earlier.

Lysander was keeping Mom from coming home, and if she didn’t comply, Lysander would demand 100 million dollars in compensation. If Mom couldn't pay, she'd go to jail.

Even though Atticus was young, he knew what jail meant.
