The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 249
She did come up with the idea of quitting, but her financial situation simply didn’t allow for it
To quit, she’d have to cough up a whopping twenty grand for breach of contract, and she had no idea where she was gonna get
that kind of dough.
So, she was racking her brain trying to figure out how to get Leopold to give her the boot.
As Thalassa was mulling over her options, a call from David jolted her back to reality. ‘Ms. Everhart, could you bring two cups of
coffee to the office?”
“Sure thing,” she said, immediately switching into work mode.
There was a coffee machine right in the secretarial office
Although she wasn’t a regular coffee drinker, she had received specific training on how to brew coffee back in school.
Back in the day, Thalassa had been a real whiz at making coffee.
And even five years down the line, her coffee–making skills were still as slick as ever.
Before long, Thalassa had brewed two steaming cups of coffee and delivered them to the CEO’s office.
Lysander and Leopold were sitting at a low table, engrossed in a work discussion..
Usually, Leopold exuded an air of grace and elegance.
But when he was sitting next to Lysander, he was clearly outshone.
The intimidating aura and dignity radiating from Lysander made everything else seem bland in comparison.
Even Leopold seemed plain and unremarkable next to him..
Holding her breath, Thalassa carefully carried the coffee over. She placed one cup in front of Lysander and the other in front of
Leopold, and then she politely said. “Here’s your coffee, Mr. Sinclair, and Mr. Sinclair.”
Then she was about to leave.

“Thalassa, sit down. We’re discussing something that concerns you,” Leopold called after her.
Something that concerned her?
Thalassa was taken aback. She hesitated for a moment, then took a seat nearby, her hands resting politely in her lap.
Lysander and Leopold sat face–to–face, with Thalassa seated across from them on the other side of the square table.
Leopold was to her left and Lysander to her right. The cold air and oppressive atmosphere coming from her right side made her
feel extremely uncomfortable.
She had no idea what they were discussing about her, and she didn’t dare ask. She maintained a polite smile on her face.
Leopold looked at her curiously. “Thalassa, why do you have a PowerPoint slide of a cartoon?”
Upon hearing this, Thalassa felt her heart had skipped a beat.
She instinctively looked at Lysander.
Lysander’s deep gaze was also fixed on her. He was waiting for her response.
The pressure on Thalassa grew even more intense.
Why did she have a captóon PowerPoint slide?
Well, it was because her kids, Elowen and Sophia, loved Peppa Pig.
They weren’t satisfied with just watching the TV version of the cartoon. They felt the stories were too few.
Every night before bed, they would ask Thalassa to tell them Peppa Pig stories but they didn’t want to hear stories that had been
aired
on TV.
Where was she supposed to get all these new stories?
So, she made a PowerPoint slide, and every day she would put together a story. After familiarizing herself with it, she could tell it
as a bedtime story to her kids at night. It could also serve as a cartoon to show the little ones.

How was she supposed to know that the USB stick would be in her pocket, and that in her nervousness because of Lysander’s
pressure, she would put it in the wrong place?
Now, being asked this question in front of Lysander, she felt her heart pounding with anxiety.
A cold sweat broke out on her back.
