The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet by Thalassa (PDF)
Chapter 457

Chapter 457

Staying by Lysander’s side was truly terrifying. She wasn't sure when it would all end.

The afternoon passed without incident.

However, just as the workday was drawing to a close, the internal line in the office rang.

Thalassa picked it up.

"Come here.” Lysander's deep, authoritative voice ordered her.

Thalassa's relaxed heart instantly tightened. When the boss summoned you, you could not disobey. She quickly replied, “Alright.”

After hanging up, she walked to the door of the CEO's office. Although the door was open, she knocked anyway.

Lysander looked up, and upon seeing her, his expression softened. “Come in.”

Thalassa carefully stepped inside and stood a few feet away from his desk. “Mr. Sinclair, you wanted to see me?”

Lysander was in the process of signing a contract. With a flourish, he set the contract down and rose from his desk, striding towards her.

As he approached, his intimidating, icy aura thickened, causing Thalassa to instinctively take a step back.

Lysander walked past her. “Follow me.”

Thalassa was taken aback but quickly followed.

As they left Sinclair Group, David was already waiting by the car.

He respectfully opened the car door for Lysander, who climbed in. Thalassa stood aside, unsure of what to do.

Lysander’s sharp gaze fell on her, and his voice was tinged with annoyance. “Do I need to carry you?"

Startled, Thalassa quickly slid into the car.

Being seen getting into his car outside Sinclair Group was already conspicuous enough. If he had to carry her, wouldn't that just fuel more gossip?

Inside the car, the atmosphere was tense and heavy.

Thalassa sat next to Lysander, her hands in her lap, feeling rather stiff.

The ride was silent.

The car finally stopped in the driveway of Royal Estates.

Lysander stepped out of the car.

Seeing that they were at Royal Estates, a sense of unease filled Thalassa.

She stayed in the car, not daring to move.

Lysander’s cold voice reached her. “Aren“t you coming?”

Thalassa’s scalp tingled. Knowing she couldn't avoid this, she got out of the car.

Soon after, David drove away.

Thalassa watched the departing car, wanting to say, “David, don't leave! Without you, what am I going to do? Who's going to take me away from here?”

But with Lysander standing nearby, she could only keep her thoughts to herself.

Lysander headed towards the mansion’s main entrance, and Thalassa had no choice but to follow. Otherwise, the consequences would be severe.

“Lysander, Ms. Everhart.” Fitch greeted them at the door. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Lysander walked into the grand hall and removed his coat. Fitch took it from him and hung it up. “Dinner will be ready soon.”

After watching Lysander sit down on the sofa, Thalassa went over and took a seat as well, though there was a gap between them.

She wasn't sure why Lysander had brought her to Royal Estates.

But it was best to keep quiet. She sat stiffly to one side.

Lysander pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and began to smoke leisurely.

Fitch stepped forward, bowed slightly, and reported, “Lysander, the antique that was broken last time has been repaired by a professional as much as possible. Some old paintings have also been restored. However, some were damaged beyond repair.”

Upon hearing about the broken antique and damaged paintings, Thalassa’s heart raced, and she began to feel tense. After all, she was the one responsible

“There's another thing I need to tell you, Lysander.” Fitch said nervously.

Lysander looked up. His deep, intimidating gaze made Fitch even more nervous. “During the inventory of the antiques, we realized that a circular pendant was missing. We've searched every corner, but we can't find it."
