The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 57

Thalassa managed to make over a grand from this part-time gig.

Plus, she used her own bank account this time, so she didn't have to worry about Evelyn swiping the money to gamble it away.

Humming a tune, Thalassa returned home to a pitch-black house. Evelyn and the kids were already snoozing.

She whipped out her phone and sent Hertha three thousand, took a shower, and hit the hay.

That night, Thalassa slept like a baby, free from the weight of debt.

She even had a plan for the kids' milk powder and clothes.

Thalassa rented a two-bedroom apartment. Evelyn and the kids occupied one room, and Thalassa took the other.

In her dream, she was perched on Lysander's lap. His handsome face was so close that she could see every pore. His skin was firm and springy, radiating power. The potent smell of his masculinity filled the air around her, and his hot breath made her shiver.

Her body responded on its own accord.

She was actually cradling Lysander's perfect face in her hands, puckering up his lips. She laughed and said, "Ha, Lysander, you've fallen into my trap. Come on, give me a kiss. You can't escape now."

With that, she puckered her lips and leaned in for a kiss.

Wow, such a perfect and handsome man was hers. Awesome!

"Lysander."

Suddenly, a smack on her forehead jolted her awake.

It must be because Lysander had her sit on his lap last night. That suggestive pose and his words left a deep impression.

That's why she had such a dream.

And her mom caught her. How embarrassing.

"Mom, don't bother setting me up. It's a waste of time. No one's going to want a mom with four kids," Thalassa replied as she got up.

"You knew that, but you didn't do anything about it. Now do you regret it?" Evelyn reproached her.

Evelyn had gotten pregnant unexpectedly when she was young. She knew the pain well and didn't expect her daughter to follow in her footsteps.

"I didn't have a choice back then." Thalassa explained.
