The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 462

Thalassa fumbled about, but she was empty-handed in the end.

Yet, the gaze Lysander cast her way grew colder and more penetrating, like a sharpened blade ready to pierce right through her.

Halting her actions, Thalassa suddenly realized that there might be a problem with the video Richard had shown him.

She met his gaze timidly, probing, "Mr. Sinclair, does this video... is it somehow related to me?"

Otherwise, why would Lysander's gaze suddenly turn so icy and furious?

Even Richard looked at her with disbelief.

Lysander tossed his cell phone onto the dining table, his voice as cold as ice, "I need a plausible explanation!"

With a bang, he slammed the phone onto the high-quality marble table.

Richard winced.

Mr. Sinclair, can't you be a bit more gentle? That's my phone! He thought to himself.

Thalassa was unsure of what was happening. She picked up the phone and opened the video. In the video, a woman in a beige dress was holding a circular pendant and conversing with a middle-aged man in a waistcoat.

Recognizing the woman in the video as Hertha, Thalassa gasped.

How could Hertha be selling this circular pendant?

Where did she get the pendant?

Wait!

Did Lysander imply that she had stolen the circular pendant from the Royal Estates?

Because she was the only one who had been to the Royal Estates. Hertha had never been there.

Hertha was her closest friend. If she stole the pendant, she must have asked Hertha to help sell it.

Anyone would think the same if they were in this situation.

But she really didn't take the circular pendant.

"888888." Thalassa responded.

After speaking, she felt a bit embarrassed. Eight was her lucky number. The Tarot deck said she could make a fortune by using the number a lot.

She did want to earn money and become rich, but she wanted to do it through her own hard work, not by illegal means.

Making money and becoming rich were just her aspirations. She would never make a quick buck by some dirty means.

Lysander entered the numbers and unlocked the phone.

As soon as the phone was unlocked, a message popped up. It was a notification of a bank deposit.

Lysander's expression tightened like a stormy sky. His sullen look made her shiver.

Richard, standing beside him, caught a glimpse of the message and joked, "We bought that circular pendant for two hundred thousand."

Thalassa began to waver as she noticed their expression changed. She hurriedly took the phone back from Lysander and saw a message from Bank. The message was congratulating her on her new income...
