The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 574
Thalassa found herself pinned beneath him.
Lysander’s coarse voice echoed in her ear, “Are you satisfied with my apology now?”
Thalassa, wide-eyed and breathless, was caught between shock and embarrassment. “If you’re not sincere, I don’t need your
apology. Could you please get off me?”
His masculine body was pressing down on her, making her immobile and breathless.
Lysander’s gaze was predatory and dangerous, watching her frightened and flushed face.
She was like an unopened rose in a garden. She was innocent, shy, and irresistible.
Instead of getting up, Lysander’s hand slid down her waist, “How am I not sincere? Do I have to strip completely to prove my
sincerity?”
“You...” Thalassa gasped in surprise, her heartbeat pounding like boiling water, constantly churning and hot.
The situation was seriously disadvantageous to her. She wanted to get up but didn’t dare to move because any movement would
have meant touching him. And touching that dangerous man was like a spark to a fuse.
“Lysander, can you please stop? I need to go downstairs to be with the kids...”
“Mama, we are here!” Just as Thalassa finished speaking, there was a noise at the door, followed by the patter of little feet
running into the room.
Four little tots made their way to the bed, stopping at its side and staring at Lysander and Thalassa.
Seeing the scene on the bed, Elowen tilted her little head and asked, “Hey, is Daddy kissing Mama?”
“I know! The book says once Daddy kisses Mama, we can have a baby brother or sister.” Dorian raised his hand, looking bright-
eyed and clever.
“We’re going to have a baby brother or sister!” Sophia giggled shyly.
Hearing the kids’ comments, Thalassa blushed even more. She reached out to push Lysander off her, “Get up...”

It was inappropriate with the kids right here in front of them.
He grasped her hand in his. Not only did he not get up, he pressed his lips on hers.
The brief contact made her heart stop. She thought he would have restrained himself in front of the kids, yet he was still so
domineering.
Although it was only a quick kiss, it left Thalassa breathless and her lips warm.
The kids looked surprised, covering their open mouths with their tiny hands. Their faces were filled with joy.
“We really are going to have a baby brother or sister!” Elowen was overjoyed, her laughter chiming like a silver bell.
Dorian started clapping.
Sophia followed suit, and even Atticus joined in the applause.
Only Thalassa was left blushing, her cheeks hot enough to cook an egg.
“Kiss again so we can have more siblings.” Dorian, in his innocent voice, proposed.
The other kids echoed his sentiment, all urging Lysander to kiss Thalassa again.
Thalassa was horrified. The kids might not have understood, but shouldn’t have Lysander at least understood not to do that?
Just a kiss wouldn’t have resulted in a baby, in any case.
Thalassa, not caring about the potential spark that she might have ignited, wriggled out from under him. Without even grabbing
her clothes, she took Elowen and Sophia’s hand, “Let’s go. Mama will put you to bed.”
Lysander sat up, watching Thalassa’s hurried retreat, and a smirk tugged at his lips.
