The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 603
Thalassa felt her heart sink in disappointment. Although she was anxious and upset, she didn’t want her mother to worry so she
reassured her, “It’s nothing. I was just asking. All right, I’ve got to go.”
Thalassa was burning with impatience. She hadn’t even gotten the chance to ask why Evelyn was in the hospital.
After hanging up, she immediately called Hertha, only to find out that she also hadn’t picked up the kids.
Thalassa’s heart was wracked with worry, her breath was heavy, and she felt like she was suffocating.
If no one had picked up the kids, where could they have been?
Going from hope to despair, Thalassa was so scared that her temples were throbbing.
She sat in the cab, feeling helpless.
She was so anxious that she was on the verge of tears. But then, she suddenly thought of someone.
Her fingers trembled slightly as she scrolled through her call history on her phone. She was looking for Fitch’s number. He had
called her once before.
Thankfully, she hadn’t made many calls recently, so she found Fitch’s number quickly.
Thalassa dialed his number.
With each ring, her heartbeat quickened.
After about ten seconds, the call was picked up.
Without waiting for the other person to speak, Thalassa blurted out, “Fitch, are the kids at Royal Estates?”
“No,” Fitch answered.
That one word felt like it had hollowed out Thalassa’s heart. Her face drained of color, and all her hopes were crushed.
She was on the verge of breaking down.

Then Fitch added, “When I went to pick up the kids this afternoon, the teacher said someone had already taken them. I notified
Lysander. He’s on his way to look for them now.”
Thalassa took in a shaky breath, swallowing back her fear, and asked, “Where is Lysander going to look?”
“The Sinclair’s mansion. Apparently, Zephyr picked them up.” Fitch didn’t hide anything. He told Thalassa everything.
At the mention of Zephyr, Thalassa felt her heart drop back into place. The kids weren’t in danger. Zephyr had just picked them
up.
She didn’t have to worry about their safety anymore.
But Thalassa was still uneasy.
She thanked Fitch and gave the cab driver the address.
She had been to the Sinclair’s mansion before and knew where it was. She wanted to see for herself to make sure. She wouldn’t
have been at ease until
she did.
Zephyr had picked up the kids without saying a word to her or Lysander.
That made her nervous,
What was Zephyr planning?
The cab stopped halfway up the hill to the Sinclair mansion.
Confused, Thalassa asked, “Sir, why are we stopping?”
The driver turned around and explained, “This is a private estate, and there’s a checkpoint up ahead. Outsiders aren’t allowed in.
You’d better get off here and walk.”.
Thalassa looked out the window and saw a checkpoint not far away.
She had walked past that checkpoint before when she was coming down from the hill. It was easy to bypass the barrier on foot,
but cars couldn’t get in.

“All right, thank you, sir.” Thalassa paid the fare and got out of the cab.
She started walking up the hill. As she approached the checkpoint, a security guard came out and stopped her. “Sorry, but you
can’t just walk in here.”
Thalassa tried to explain, “I know the owner. I really need to get in.”
“Please leave. The guard was firm. Their job was to keep outsiders out.
Just as Thalassa was wondering what to do, she saw a black Rolls-Royce approaching in the distance.
