The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet by Thalassa -
Chapter 410
Chapter 410
“Your job is to accompany Mr. Sinclair to the gourmet competition.” David stated, “The rest can waithis goes ahead of anything else.”
Thalassa was at a loss for words.
She had intended to find an excuse to evade it, but David had already left.
She felt as though she was not heading to a gourmet competition, but a death row.
If she went and was seen by Elowen, Elowen would definitely call her mom joyfully. Lysander was also, there, and if he hearingd a little girl call her ‘mom’, he would certainly dig deeper.
The secret she was so careful to hide would be exposed.
She dared not imagine the consequences after the exposure….
But if she insisted on not going, it would be negligence, which would cause dissatisfaction and suspicion from Lysander.
Once he started doubting and investigating, the secret she wanted to keep would still be exposed.
She was caught between a rock and a hard place.
After much consideration, Thalassa decided to go. At least, if she was present, she could attempt to remedy any emergency situation on the spot.
If she didn’t go, everything would be out of control.
The final of the gourmet competition was held outdoors in Times Square.
The place was packed with people, t. The audience seats were full, and the staff was busy.
The competitors were all waiting backstage.
Thalassa seized the opportunity of Lysander sitting in the rest room having coffee, and went backstage.
All the competitors were adults, only Elowen was a child not yet five years old.
Among the many competitors, she stood out, easy to spot.
Elowen Her small figure sat on a chair, head down, munching on potato chips. Sitting next to her was Hertha.
Today, it was Hertha who accompanied Elowen to the competition.
Thalassa hurried forward and gently tapped Hertha’s shoulder, “Hertha.”
Hertha turned around, her eyes lit up upon seeing her, “Thalassa, what are you doing here?”
“Mom!” Elowen turned her head, showing a sweet smile upon seeing Thalassa, and. She called out joyously.
“Thalassa, what happened to your head?” The next second, Hertha noticed the bandage on Thalassa’s head, asking with worry.
Elowen pouted as well, looking worried, “Mom, are you hurtalright? Does it hurt?”
Thalassa was very anxious at the moment, worried about the scene when Elowen and Lysander meet in the competition. At that time, she would also be on stage, serving Lysander.
She had important things to tell Elowen and Hertha and didn’t have much time to talk about her experience in the past few days.
So she briefly mentioned, “I had a minor car accident, it’s nothing serious.”
Thalassa took them to the tea room, which was less crowded and without competitors.
She told Hertha and Elowen, “Our My company is the investor ofin the gourmet competition, and our my boss is the final judge. I will be following our my boss then. Elowen, when you see me later, don’t be curious, and don’t call me mMom. Otherwise, people might think you have a backstagepulled a string, accusing us of favoritism. You win because of your own strength, mom doesn’t. I don’t want you to be misunderstood.”
Thalassa really thought so.
The internet nowadays is was too scary. If Elowen publicly called her mom, some people would make a fuss about it and Elowen would be accused of winning by
unfair means.
Being cyber-bullied is was even worse.
Moreover, Elowen she iswas such a small child.
As a mother, she not only had to support her children’s hobbies but also had to consider their safety.
Of course, there was another point, to prevent Lysander from knowing that Elowen was her child.
In this way, she could continue to have her four children, and be with them happily and freely.
Although Elowen was young, she was very understanding. After hearing Thalassa’s words, she obediently nodded her head.
