The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 521
Thalassa looked down to see Elowen’s large, round eyes filled with anticipation.
The cute, soft look instantly tugged at Thalassa’s heartstrings.
A gentle smile graced her lips. “Good thing there’s still half left. You don’t mind sharing, do you?”
“Nope! I love you, Mommy. I don’t mind at all,” Elowen replied sweetly.
Thalassa couldn’t help but chuckle at that.
Evelyn also laughed. Her eyes were brimming with a warmth that threatened to spill over
Blinking back her tears, Evelyn fed the remaining half of Thalassa’s spaghetti to Elowen.
“Mmm. So good,” Elowen commented after her first bite, and her eyes sparkled with delight.
The little one had no resistance to delicious food, especially when she was so hungry.
The delightful taste of the pesto sauce was very fragrant and creamy. It was a heavenly delight.
Thalassa laughed, and Evelyn did as well. Her voice was a loving caress. ‘Take your time. Grandma also bought some of your
favorite bagels. If you’re still hungry, you can have one.”
“I will, Mommy. After the spaghetti, I want a bagel,” Elowen responded, gobbling down the spaghetti faster than Evelyn could
feed her.
The child was really hungry.
It was past midnight when Elowen finished her drip.
They couldn’t stay in the hospital for long, and they had to leave once the IV was done.
Waking up the other three children, they each got a bagel and a bottle of milk.
The family left the hospital.
There were few cars on the road. Standing by the roadside, Thalassa felt lost, not knowing where to go next.

“Thalassa, look! Isn’t that the bus to Hollowbrook?” Evelyn excitedly tugged Thalassa’s sleeve, pointing at a white bus
approaching them.
Because the streetlights near the hospital were bright, they could clearly see the banner hanging on the bus.”
Hollowbrook was a small town surrounding Starhaven.
She hadn’t expected that they were so close to Hollowbrook.
While Thalassa was still in a daze, Evelyn flagged down the bus and got on with Dorian and Atticus.
Halfway through, she noticed Thalassa still standing there, lost in thoughts. “Thalassa, quickly bring Sophia and Elowen
onboard.”
Thalassa snapped back to reality. It was late and there were no cars on the road. She didn’t dare to use her phone. So, she
couldn’t call a cab.
Having a bus to ride was already a blessing in disguise.
The kids were tired from following them around. They needed to find a place to rest.
Thalassa got on the bus with Elowen and Sophia.
She asked the driver, confirming that the bus was indeed going to Hollowbrook.
Evelyn’s worried face finally broke into a smile. “Thank God. We can go home now.”
Having a home was the ultimate comfort and provided a sense of security.
They arrived at Hollowbrook at half past midnight.
Evelyn, holding hands with Atticus and Dorian, hurried towards the largest mansion in the village.
That was their home, where Astrid Pendleton was taking care of the house and farming.
Thalassa followed Evelyn, and a sense of unease crept into her heart.
She hadn’t expected that running away would lead them back to Hollowbrook.

Lysander had been to Hollowbrook before. Would he have guessed that she was back here?
Evelyn didn’t have the same worries. She just felt relieved to be home.
She took out her keys and opened the door.
The warm light from the living room spilled out, illuminating a man standing in the hall.
Seeing that man, Thalassa’s heart skipped a beat.
