The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 136
Thalassa took a look around. Apart from the dirt road being replaced with a concrete one, and the old house now a luxurious
villa, nothing much had changed.
And this villa was built right where her house used to be. It was hard not to wonder, could this villa be her house?
Astrid widened her eyes in disbelief, her body that had been trembling with fear now shook even more violently, this time due to
shock and wonder, as well as the fear of the unknown.
“No way, our house turned into a mansion?” Astrid could hardly believe it.
Thalassa seemed a bit puzzled, “Astrid, I’m not so sure either...” The villa was indeed built where their old house used to be.
Could someone have demolished their old house and taken their land? At this thought, Thalassa felt both outraged and uneasy.
Good people always seemed to get the short end of the stick. Their family was always known for their honesty and kindness in
the village. Could the villagers have demolished their house when they found out no one was home?
The thought made Thalassa’s chest heave with anger.
Evelyn also realized the severity of the problem, and she exclaimed angrily, “Who the hell tore down our house and took our
land?”
Evelyn’s words confirmed Thalassa’s suspicions, which only fueled her anger further. ‘I’m going to find the village director!” she
declared.
As Thalassa was about to storm off, the gate of the villa opened and a spiffy young man in a suit walked out. Seeing Thalassa,
he stopped and smiled, “You must be Miss Thalassa”
Thalassa paused, turning around to see him coming from the villa. But she didn’t recognize him. She grew even angrier, turning
back around to confront him, “Are you the owner of this villa? Do you know this land was ours? Why did you tear down our house
without our consent?”
Thalassa spat out a string of questions in one breath. Kind people really did get walked all over. And now it was happening to
them. Their house had been torn down.
The young man was flabbergasted by her barrage of questions.

Evelyn also started to yell, “You jerk, give us back our house!” As she spoke, Evelyn was ready to throw a punch. She was hot-
tempered and far from patient when it came to dealing with problems.
Seeing Evelyn’s fist raised, the young man quickly said, “Don’t hit me. This villa is yours.”
“What?” Thalassa, Evelyn, and Astrid all exclaimed in surprise, unable to believe what they heard.
Evelyn’s fist hung in the air.
The young man quickly explained, ‘I was just sent here to wait for you to return and hand over the keys and property documents.
Please wait a moment, I’ll be right back...”
With that, the young man hurried back into the villa.
Thalassa, Evelyn, and Astrid exchanged glances. The four kids looked at each other, not understanding what was going on.
Soon the young man came out again, carrying a transparent file bag with a bunch of documents and a set of keys inside.
He handed the transparent file bag to Thalassa, “Here are the keys to the villa, along with the property deed.”
Thalassa took the file bag in surprise, opened it, and took out the documents. She flicked through them, and there on the
ownership column were the names of Astrid and Evelyn.
“This villa really is ours!” Thalassa exclaimed in disbelief.
