The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 1291
Evelyn's gaze fell as she grappled with an inner torment that refused to dissolve,
a pang self-reproach vivid in her eyes.
The train was quick, reaching Starhaven in just two hours.

From the moment they disembarked, Thalassa could sense that something was
off with Evelyn. As they stepped out of the station, Thalassa preempted any
discussion, turning to Lysander and saying, “l need to get back to Star Harbor
Villa to be with my mom.”
No sooner had she spoken than a sleek black Rolls-Royce rolled up beside
them, the door swinging open to reveal a man in a crisp suit.
Thalassa did a double-take. The man seemed both unfamiliar and eerily
recognizable.
Upon closer inspection, recognition dawned on her face. It was indeed an old
acquaintance.
“David, how on earth did you get so tanned?” Thalassa blinked, half-convinced
her eyes were deceiving her.
But after a more careful look, the features were unmistakably David's, though his
skin had taken on a deep bronze as if he'd spent considerable time basking in
the Afriland sun.
David grinned, his pearly white teeth standing out against his darkened skin.
“Ms. Everhart, Evelyn, Mr. Sinclair, please get in the car,” he said, his tone a mix
of respect and familiarity as he courteously held the door open.
Thalassa stood rooted to the spot, her gaze questioning as she looked to

With that, he slid into the passenger seat.
Thalassa hesitated, relieved he hadn't insisted on sharing the backseat.

interior despite the presence of four people. Thalassa sat closely next to Evelyn,
their arms entwined, leaning on each other.

the atmosphere.
Lysander’s only response was a sidelong glance.
David touched his nose, a gesture to cover his awkwardness.
“We went in the morning and came back in the afternoon. How much fun do you
think we had?” Thalassa said, breaking the silence to spare David further
embarrassment.
At her words, Lysander’s dark gaze flicked to the rear-view mirror.
It seemed she had finally found the spirit to converse after the quiet journey from
Eldoria
to Starhaven.
“Oh,” was all David replied, signaling he got the message, then fell silent again.

His tone was playful, inviting Thalassa into the light-hearted banter.
“Why?” Thalassa inquired, playing along.
