The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 1427

Because his hands were full, Spencer couldn't scoop Helena up earlier.

Realization dawned on Bridget, and she hurried over to take the bags from Spencer's hands. "Wow, Spencer, you've got quite the haul here! Let me help you with that. I'll go whip up a nice stew for us."

Bridget was both enthusiastic and diligent.

Spencer didn't protest, letting Bridget take the bags from him. He stepped forward and took Helena from Hertha's arms. "Come here, Uncle Spencer's got you."

Helena didn't resist. In fact, she seemed eager to be held by Spencer.

Hertha, who had been holding the two kids, could manage for a while, but her arms were starting to ache now. Without a word, she let Spencer take Helena.

Helena looked up at Spencer with her big, sparkling eyes, her voice soft and curious, "Uncle Spencer, are you our daddy? All the kids in the neighborhood have daddies, but my

brother and I don't."

This question caught both Spencer and Hertha off guard. Hertha quickly intervened, "Helena, Uncle Spencer is not your daddy. Your daddy... he's off on a mission in outer space to save the galaxy."

Hertha was telling a tall tale, of course. Their real dad had just been sent packing by her.

Lucky for her, she had sent him away just in time. Otherwise, he would have witnessed the two children running up to call her "mommy".

He would have also heard Helena asking why they didn't have a daddy.

Alaric was no fool. He would definitely have guessed that Helena and Julian were his kids

if he heard their words.

"Like a superhero off to space?" Julian asked, his curiosity piqued.

"Yep, just like a superhero, with glowing eyes and all," Hertha confirmed with vigorous nods, serious as a judge.

The kids were still young and gullible, likely to believe any stories she made up.

But when they got older, she feared her fibs wouldn't hold up.

Well, she thought, one step at a time. When the kids grew up, she'd find other excuses. No one was going to take her children away.

The kids didn't ask any more questions.

Spencer gave Hertha a meaningful look that left her feeling awkward, but she didn't offer

Back at Hertha's place, Bridget was bustling in the kitchen, while the kids were playing in the toy room.

Hertha and Spencer sat on the couch.

Hertha was snacking on some fruit, and paused at his question, well aware that the 'he' referred to Alaric.

She replied, "No feelings, really. Just helping out a friend. I won't be seeing him again."
