The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 74

"Well, that's that." Thalassa answered.

The two of them hopped back in the car, with Hertha looking noticeably cheerier than before.

"What happened between you and Lysander at Sapphire Skyline?" Hertha remembered what Alaric had said and gave Thalassa a look full of curiosity.

Just thinking about the close relationship between Thalassa and Lysander that Alaric had implied made her excited. She was dying to know the truth.

Thalassa's face turned a deep shade of red. "Keep your eyes on the road and quit being nosy."

"Come on, tell me. I'm your best friend. What's the harm in telling?" Hertha's curiosity was piqued. She was eager to know about Thalassa and Lysander.

Thalassa was extremely embarrassed, "That night, I was working as a waitress at Sapphire Skyline. Alariv ordered some female company, and I was sent to serve them. However, Lysander mistook me for one of the ladies they ordered. I explained that I was just a waitress, not the kind of worker they were expecting, and left the room. Nothing happened between us."

Thalassa put extra emphasis on the last sentence.

"Are you sure nothing happened? Alaric just called you Lysander's woman, and he didn't deny it." Hertha's mind was racing; she was turning into a detective.

Thalassa was taken aback; she also remembered Lysander's demeanor.

He didn't deny that she was his woman and even defended her against Alaric's badmouthing.

Why would he do that?

Did Lysander have feelings for her?

No way!

Wasn't his girlfriend Isabella?

A man who had a girlfriend and still had feelings for other women. What a jerk!

At first, he pretended to be loyal, saying only his ex-girlfriend was in his heart. But, right now, it looked like he was a player.

"Alright." Thalassa agreed; they both had the time, and she needed to buy clothes for the kids.

By the time they finished shopping, it was already past eight in the evening.

Thalassa bought clothes and formula for the kids and a set of clothes each for Astrid and her mother. Her $800 was almost all gone.

Rent was due in a few days, which put a lot of pressure on Thalassa.

She contacted the manager at Sapphire Skyline, planning to continue working as a waitress that night.

She had to work non-stop and make money while the sun was still shining.

When she arrived at Sapphire Skyline, she saw Hertha.

"Hertha, what are you doing here?" She exclaimed in surprise.
