The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 1028
“Mom, is there anything else we need to get rid of?” Atticus turned to ask Thalassa. His cheeks flushed a rosy red from the tense
focus of the past hour.
Snapping back to reality, Thalassa’s gaze softened upon seeing her son’s ruddy
complexion, Beads of sweat had trickled from his forehead, rolling down to dampen the collar of his shirt.
In her rush to delete the video, she hadn’t noticed how Atticus had been straining himself.
A pang of tenderness swelled in her chest. She reached for a tissue and gently wiped the sweat from his face and neck. “No,
sweetie, there’s nothing more to do. You’ve been such a big help to Mom today, and I can’t thank you enough.”
Atticus’ young face also went cheerful as he saw Thalassa finally relaxing and no longer looking lost or restless. A wide smile
broke out, and in his childish voice he said, “Don’t mention it, Mom. I like helping you out. As long as you’re happy, that’s all that
matters.”
Thalassa’s eyes brimmed with tears as she pulled Atticus into a hug and whispered, “Having you kids is the greatest blessing of
my life.”
“And having you is our biggest happiness.” Atticus replied, his voice muffled against her shoulder.
Thalassa laughed through her tears. She had her children, and with them, she had everything.
“Mom, Atticus, are you guys done yet?” At the door, a knock was followed by Elowen’s sweet, questioning voice.
Thalassa had rushed back to Royal Estates, immediately sequestered herself with Atticus in his room, and instructed her other
three little ones not to disturb them. She had been determined to delete the compromising video that Bruce had without any
distractions.
Now that the ordeal was over, the other children were still waiting outside. Shaking off her daze, Thalassa let go of Atticus and
stood up to open the door. But Atticus, eager and happy, beat her to it. “I’ll get the door!”
He scampered over, his small legs carrying him quickly, and swung the door open to reveal his siblings. They’d been waiting with
rounded, curious eyes, looking like a trio of adorable bear cubs.

“Did you manage to teach Mom how to use the software, Atticus?” Elowen tilted her lovely head and asked.
They had wanted to be with their mother but had patiently refrained from disturbing her.
They’d been waiting for so long, so they came to knock.

Atticus grinned, showed off his little canines, and nodded enthusiastically. “Yep, mission accomplished!”
“Wow, Atticus, you’re awesome! We love you and Mom!” Elowen’s eyes sparkled with admiration, generously heaping on the
praise.
Flattered by Elowen’s admiring gaze, Atticus felt a sense of achievement. He shyly scratched the back of his head.
“Have you guys bathed yet? Let’s get you cleaned up.” Thalassa suggested, full of affection for her little ones.
“Mom, the boys can go with Fitch; they’re guys. Me and Sophia, we’re girls, so we can bathe with you.” Elowen suggested, her
voice soft and sweet.
“Alright, let’s go then.” Thalassa agreed. She took Elowen and Sophia by the hand and left the room.
Atticus and Dorian trailed behind.
As they were about to step into the bathroom, Evelyn came hurrying in, breathless with news. “Thalassa, you are home! Oh my,
tonight just took me by surprise.”
She stood before Thalassa and slapped her thigh in exasperation. “You wouldn’t believe it.” she sighed.
Thalassa inquired curiously, “What happened? Trouble at finding a job?”
