The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 577
The man eyed her, and there was a flicker of recognition in his gaze.
They locked eyes for a few moments before the man slapped his thigh in realization. “Evelyn! No, Thalassa! The first woman to
fling herself into Lysander’s arms!”
He pointed at Thalassa, his grin charming and sunny.
Thalassa had been wracking her brain trying to remember him, but at the mention of Lysander, it clicked.
He was often seen with Lysander at the Sapphire Skyline. Ethan, the one she was interviewing with for the position of assistant
to the secretary at the Crawley Electronics!
The fact that a secretary’s assistant needed to be interviewed by the boss himself already seemed strange to Thalassa. But after
seeing the man in front of her, Thalassa felt even more perplexed and disheartened.
She hadn’t expected the Crawley Electronics to be Ethan’s.
Ethan was a good friend of Lysander’s. She’d been fired from Lysander’s company; there was no way Ethan would have hired
her.
After all, he wouldn’t have wanted to cross Lysander because of her.
The man’s way of greeting her also made Thalassa feel awkward. Who greets a woman by saying she flung herself into a man’s
arms?
Standing up, she said politely, “So it’s Mr. Ethan. It seems I’ve come to the wrong place.”
As Thalassa turned to leave, Ethan stopped her. “Hey, don’t go! Are you saying our little company isn’t good enough for you?”
Thalassa halted at his words. She didn’t have such high standards.
She hurriedly said, “No, that’s not it. Have you seen my resume? My previous employer was the Sinclair Group...”
She was implying that her previous boss was Lysander, and if Ethan hired her, wasn’t he going to risk offending Lysander?

Ethan’s eyes lit up. “So, you’ve worked for the Sinclair Group? You must not know that anyone who’s worked there is highly
sought after wherever they go. It’s well known that the Sinclair Group produces top talents.”
“But I was fired.” Thalassa felt the need to clarify, not wanting to cause him any trouble.
Ethan’s sunny disposition faltered, but his smile remained. “Well, that’s interesting. Wait here a moment. I need to make a call.”
Ethan left the conference room to make his call.
Everyone knew Lysander had a soft spot for Thalassa. He had finally managed to get her a job at the Sinclair Group, where they
could interact closely, possibly sparking a workplace romance.
But why had Lysander fired her? Had he grown tired of her?
Ethan dialed Lysander’s number.
As soon as the call connected, he teased, “Lysander, your woman is here at my company, wanting to work as a secretary’s
assistant. Should I hire her or send her away?”
Ethan could almost feel the icy aura emanating from Lysander through the phone.
There was definitely something going on between those two, and Ethan’s curiosity was piqued. He asked, “Lysander, did you two
have a fight?”
“Decide on your own company’s matters You don’t need to ask me!” Lysander’s cold, low voice echoed before he hung up.
His eyes stared at the phone, deep in thought.
What was his relationship with Thalassa? Could the term ‘fight’ even apply to them?
Ethan stared at the silent phone, puzzled.
What did Lysander mean by his statement?
Let him decide whether to hire Thalassa or send her away?
That was quite the conundrum.

After a moment, a grin spread across Ethan’s face as he walked back into the conference room.
Thalassa looked at him as he entered and asked, “So, what’s it going to be? Do you dare to hire me or not?”
