The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 969

The chill in the air was enough to freeze a soul in place.

Callum faced him squarely and said, "Do you have any idea what Thalassa just went through? She was kidnapped, nearly destroyed. If I hadn't arrived in the nick of time, she'd be ruined by now!"

His expression darkened as he addressed Lysander.

Lysander’s gaze swept the room, catching sight of the discarded ropes and the tape that had been used to silence her.

Tightening his hold around Thalassa's waist, he gritted his teeth and said to Callum, "Quite the coincidence, you being here. I'll be looking into this, rest assured!"

With that, he turned, Thalassa in tow.

Coming back to her senses, Thalassa, though weak, tried to push away from Lysander's firm grip around her waist.

"Let go of me. I can walk on my own."

Lysander's grip tightened slightly, and he gave her a piercing, icy look that could stop anyone dead in their tracks.

His eagle-like gaze was sharp enough to cleave through Thalassa's resolve.

She faltered, all the grievances she held bottled up inside, unable to voice her pain or vent her frustrations.

Exiting the hotel room with Thalassa, Lysander commanded his bodyguard, "Lock down all the exits. Everyone gets searched. The kidnapper does not get away with this!"

"Understood!" the bodyguard replied, taking the order.

Lysander's men, demonstrating remarkable efficiency, promptly closed off all exits at the hotel. The hotel manager, visibly anxious, approached, awaiting Lysander’s instructions.

"Right away!" The bodyguard moved to carry out the command, swiftly and brutally breaking the man's arms.

A shriek of agony filled the air, echoing off the walls.

Thalassa clenched her fists tight. Once, such a sound would have made her cringe, but now, she felt the man got what he deserved, and she even thought his punishment was lenient.

The man was dragged away as the hotel manager, still shaking, addressed Lysander, "Mr. Sinclair, we have the surveillance footage ready. You can review it in the security room."

Lysander stood, his long legs carrying him and Thalassa towards the security room.

The footage would reveal who had taken Thalassa to the hotel.

As Thalassa followed Lysander to the security room, her heart tightened with apprehension.
