The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 231
She thought the kids were just flipping through some comics or fairy tales at the bookstore when they were on their own.
The kids glanced at each other, then lowered their heads and kept eating.
“Also, there’s no one at home to look after them, and Elowen almost got hit by a car when she was out playing We might not be
so lucky next time. At least in school, there are teachers watching them all the time, Thalassa added.
Hertha chimed in from the side, “Yeah, yeah, the kids are four now. It’s time for them to go to school.”
Evelyn looked at the four adorable little ones who were eating
She sighed deeply “In a blink of an eye, the kids have grown so much. They need to start trying to leave grandma.”
Caring for the kids every day was exhausting for Evelyn.
But the thought of the kids being at school every day and only coming home at night, with no more children buzzing around her
during the day, made her feel a bit lost. She was reluctant to let go.
In the evening, Hertha went home.
After Thalassa put the kids to bed, she started job hunting and sending resumes on her computer.
The jobs that didn’t require a degree were all about factory workers, cleaners, or odd jobs.
She had been to college for two years. Was all the professional knowledge she had learned going to be wasted like that?
She was a bit unwilling to accept it.
Just like Lysander said, was she really not up to the task?
No, she knew her capabilities well. She could do very well as a secretary.
It’s just that most companies only cared about degrees.
While browsing the web, she suddenly saw a job posting for a secretarial assistant at a company.
She paused and, with a try–it–out attitude, submitted her resume.

In the work experience column of her resume, she wrote that she had been the personal secretary to the president of the Sinclair
group. with only one day of experience!
After sending her resume, Thalassa went to bed.
The next day, Thalassa and Evelyn took the kids to kindergarten. The kids were enrolled and they immediately stayed for
classes.
Evelyn was going to the card room to watch others play poker.
Thalassa had to go home by herself.
At the bottom floor of their building, she saw a familiar silver Porsche.
A man, tall and slender with short chestnut brown hair, was leaning against the car wearing a chic autumn suit in khaki and navy
blue checks.
He was standing on one foot with the other foot resting on it. He looked up at the windows of the building.
Thalassa saw the man’s face clearly. It was Leopold Sinclair!
Her heart skipped a beat. She quickly averted her gaze and lowered her head. She tried to pretend she didn’t see him, heading
straight. for the building.
“Thalassa!” Leopold spotted her instantly. With his heart leaping, he quickly stepped forward to follow her, “Why are you coming
in from outside? I thougfit you were still in bed.”
He was waiting for her downstairs to give her a surprise when she came out for work, and to give her a ride.
Thalassa stopped. Looking up at him, her gaze was filled with caution and distance, “I’ve told you, stop looking for me.”
Leopold’s smile didn’t fade. It was still as warm and gentle as ever.
“Thalassa, I know I was wrong before. I didn’t make any promises to you. Back then, I was just a student. I knew nothing about
many things, and I had no ability to do anything. But now things are different, I have my own company, and I know what I want. I
can protect the people I want to protect, and I can give the woman I love a stable home. Thalassa, will you give me another
chance?” Leopold said, reaching out his hand to hold hers.

Just as his hand was about to touch Thalassa’s, she reflexively pulled her hand back.
She said sternly to Leopold again, “Leopold, five years have passed. I’v
