The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 1015
Sneer and raged filled Thalassa’s heart, but not a trace of discontent could flicker across her face. Her hands, though, clenched
tight on her lap as she endured the storm of fury and loathing churning within.
Enough words had been spoken, and if Joshua didn’t lift his glass to drink, it would appear as a slight against Thalassa’s honor.
Joshua had just learned that Thalassa was Lysander’s children’s mother, and his demeanor towards her was as warm as it was
towards Lysander himself.
He couldn’t bear the thought of her being upset.
Without hesitation, Joshua raised his glass first.
Thalassa was taken aback, her eyes widening in surprise. She had thought Susan was nothing but a sideshow, orchestrating a
farce that neither Lysander nor Joshua would partake in.
She didn’t expect that Joshua would actually lift his glass!
That drink was spiked – it was imperative not to drink it.
“Thalassa, your sister is quite an interesting person.” Joshua said with an ambiguous sparkle in his eye, his words laced with
intrigue.
His notion of ‘interesting’ was surely not a compliment to Susan, but a veiled scoff at the absurdity of it all.
As Joshua prepared to sip his drink, Thalassa’s heart leaped to her throat. She blurted out, “Mr. Joshua, wait a moment!”
“Hmm? Something else?” Joshua paused, turning his inquisitive gaze towards Thalassa.
Suppressing the panic within, Thalassa snatched the glass from in front of Lysander and said, “Mr. Joshua, you’ve had quite
enough to drink already, and you still need to drive later. I’ll take this one for the team – consider it making up for not sharing a
drink with you earlier. You don’t have to drink.”
No sooner had Thalassa spoken than Susan shot her a venomous, warning glare.

Thalassa’s heart clenched, she bit down hard on her resolve, choosing to ignore Susan’s menacing stare, and reached for the
drink.
But Lysander snatched the glass away.
His deep, baritone voice rumbled, “Why are you meddling when your sister is toasting us?” He emphasized the words ‘your
sister’ heavily.

Chapter 1015
His profound eyes smoldered with a dark, volcanic fury, threatening to erupt at any
moment.
Last time, Thalassa sent Susan to deliver him wine, which was a ploy to provide Susan a chance to seduce him!
This time, she brought Susan along. What was her intention?
He was determined to uncover Thalassa’s scheme!
Susan had been insisting she was Thalassa’s sister throughout, suggesting a close bond between them.
How close Thalassa was to Bruce’s camp!
Confronted with Lysander’s abyssal gaze, deep and frightening as a well, Thalassa’s heart skipped a beat. She was left
speechless.
“Thank you for your courtesy, gentlemen, and I’ll drink ahead.” Susan chimed in with a smile, lifting her glass to her lips and
downing the red wine in one gulp.
Joshua followed suit, drinking a hearty portion.
Lysander’s eyes, deep and inscrutable, brought the glass to his lips.
As Lysander was about to drink, Thalassa’s heart tightened. Her breath hitched, and her mind raced with silent pleas: Don’t
drink, Lysander, please don’t drink!
