The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 559
“Tablet.” Atticus said.
Thalassa blinked and said, “You didn’t bring your tablet with you.”
“Dad gave me two. I was in the tech class in kindergarten,” Atticus said in his childish voice.
Thalassa looked surprised, turning to look at Lysander, who was sitting on the couch. There seemed to have been a hint of a
smile playing on his lips. When he noticed her gaze, the smile disappeared instantly, and his face turned cold again.
He resumed his unapproachable demeanor.
Did she just see things? She was sure she saw a smile on Lysander’s face, probably touched by the children’s cheerfulness.
But then, he appeared icy and intimidating again.
Thalassa shivered involuntarily.
“Me too. Dad gave me ice cream.” Elowen chimed in, speaking of the reward Lysander had given her.
“I’m in the drama class,” Dorian said happily.
“I, I have two charm necklaces,” Sophia said, her cheeks flushed.
So, the children received gifts from Lysander just two days after arriving at the Royal Estates?
He really was something. In less than two days, he had been able to understand the children’s preferences and knew how to
please them, making them obedient.
Capitalists are truly terrifying.
The tactics used in the business world can also be applied to parenting.
Thalassa felt a strange feeling in her heart.
She initially thought the children would have felt uncomfortable without her. But to her surprise, they seemed quite happy at the
Royal Estates.

While she was happy for their adaptability, she could not help but feel a profound sense of loss.
“Everyone has a present. That’s great!” Thalassa smiled, praising each child.
Today is Thursday. Do you have to go to school later?” Thalassa asked.
At that moment, Fitch came over, “We need to leave soon, or we’ll be late.”
Thalassa looked at the four pairs of innocent eyes filled with reluctance to leave her and go to school.
She didn’t want them to go either, but school was necessary.
She comforted them, “Be good and go to school. Mom will pick you up in the afternoon, okay?”
“Okay. Mom must come to pick us up.” The children, being understanding, agreed.
Thalassa promised, “Yes, Mom will definitely pick you up.”
Fitch led the four children out of the Royal Estates.
Thalassa watched them leave, the sense of loss in her heart becoming more intense.
Only when the car had left the Royal Estates did Thalassa turn back and walk towards the couch.
Sitting opposite Lysander, she carefully chose her words, “What is your bank account number? I want to return the billion dollars
to you. In return, you must allow me to see the children whenever I
I want.”
Lysander lifted his usual deep, icy gaze to her, “Are you trying to negotiate with me?”
“Consider it that way, I can give up everything as long as I can see the kids,” Thalassa admitted, feeling tense under his
penetrating gaze. After all, she was dealing with Lysander.
But to secure that right, she had to face him bravely, no matter how nervous she was.
Lysander’s gaze locked onto her without a word as if trying to see right through her.

Thalassa clenched her right hand with her left, bearing his sharp gaze and the Invisible pressure, which was so overwhelming
that she was hardly able to breathe.
