The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 441
Dressed in a deep navy-blue suit and matching trousers, Alaric was a sight to behold. His white shirt and a blue plaid tie added
to his extraordinary demeanor. His hypnotic eyes were enchantingly mischievous, a stark contrast to Lysander’s rugged
handsomeness.
Behind them, a group of people were busy carrying cameras and microphones. They were unmistakably members of the press.
On seeing them, Hertha’s nerves, which had just begun to settle, stretched again. Her smile became tense and awkward. “Mr.
Sinclair, welcome. Please, come in,” she said, stepping aside to let them in.
Lysander, followed by Alaric, spread his long legs and stepped in. Alaric’s inscrutable eyes fixed on Hertha as he passed by.
What a pair of enchanting eyes!
His gaze sent a shiver down her spine, causing her heart to race. His enchanting allure, his breathtaking beauty, and his ability to
captivate her with a single look – it was all too much.
The reporters followed closely behind; their cameras trained on Lysander.
Once everyone was in, Hertha approached nervously; she noticed that Lysander was taking in the room’s decor. He was staring
at a giant panda plushie on the sofa that she had forgotten to put away.
“Mr. Sinclair, Mr. Falconer, please sit,” she said, hastily grabbing the plushie and holding it close.
As Alaric took a seat next to Lysander, he surveyed the room and remarked, “The house is not bad for a single mom working and
raising her four kids.” Hertha responded with a forced smile, “Yes, I’m glad the kids are well-behaved so I don’t have to worry too
much.”
Alaric, with a teasing smile, responded, “I can see that. They’re already earning their keep by winning a huge amount of money
in a single contest. That’s two years’ worth of income for an average family, isn’t it?”
Hertha, feeling guilty, didn’t respond. Instead, she noticed Lysander’s gaze had moved to the clothes hanging on the balcony..
Following his gaze, she saw several sets of children’s clothes, including adorable animal onesies. The clothes swayed gently in
the wind and looked incredibly cute. So Lysander was staring at those onesies. He must relent just by watching the babies cute
clothes, she thought.

“Those are my quadruplets’ clothes. They’re about the same size, so I buy and wash their clothes together,” she explained.
The reportérs quickly took their cameras and gave them a close-up shot.
However, Lysander’s gaze had moved on to a yellow dress hanging among the clothes. “Ms. Kensington, do you also wear
Chanel?” he asked.
“No, I like Chanel but it’s too expensive for me,” Hertha replied automatically. But then she realized her mistake. Among the
clothes was a yellow Chanel dress. That was Thalassa Everhart’s dress, a gift from Lysander himself!
“Ms. Kensington, unless I’m mistaken, that yellow dress on the clothesline is a Chanel haute couture piece. If you don’t wear
Chanel, where did it come from?” asked one of the more experienced reporters.
Hertha’s heart pounded in her chest as the reporter scooted over and handed her the microphone.
