The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 673
“You’re telling me that Lysander’s father died because of Bruce?” Evelyn’s lips turned pale as the news sent shock waves
through her core.
“Yes, Lysander hates me and our family.” Thalassa’s voice was filled with helplessness and resignation.
Evelyn gripped Thalassa’s hand and dropped her gaze. Her eyes went blank, “Good heavens... I had been singing praises about
the benefits of him marrying you to his grandmother. Was Sybil’s death indirectly caused by me?”
The realization hit Evelyn hard and drowned her in guilt.
“Mom, stop overthinking. There’s more to Grandma Sybil’s death. Lysander is looking into it.” Thalassa paused for a moment
before adding an earnest remark, “Mom, stop trusting Bruce. He doesn’t love anyone but himself. He’s been deceiving you all
along.”
Evelyn’s blank stare was replaced by a flood of tears as the harsh reality hit her. The pain was unbearable.
She had been hurt before, and now she was hurt deeply this time.
Evelyn said bitterly through her tears, “I hope that old crook gets hit by a bus!”
With that, her fists quivered as it slammed down on the sofa.
“He’s stolen our money, so what can we do now? What should I do?” Evelyn gritted her teeth in anger.
She had ruined Thalassa’s life and her own because of such a cheater.
Thalassa gently patted Evelyn’s shoulder to comfort her. “Mom, just stop trusting him from now on.”
Her eyes were steady and clear, “I’ll get our money back!”
“How will you get it back? Don’t confront him head-on.” Evelyn held Thalassa’s hand in worry.
She had seen Bruce’s true colors now. He only cared about money, not people.
If Thalassa pushed him into a corner, he would surely bite back. Evelyn didn’t want Thalassa to get hurt.

Thalassa reassured her, “Mom, don’t worry. I won’t confront him head-on. Just leave this to me.”
The next morning, Thalassa took the initiative to call Bruce.
“Thalassa, I was just thinking about you and was about to call you, and you beat me to it. We really do have a special bond.”
Bruce’s voice oozed flattery from the other end of the line.
Thalassa chuckled lightly and asked, “Are you enjoying the card my mom gave you?”
“Thalassa, listen to me. I was planning to divorce that old hag at home, but she threatened me with our child and tricked me into
giving her the billion. The heartless woman even uses our child to get what she wants. You know me well. I’m a man of honor,
especially when it comes to my own child. How could I stand by and let our child suffer?” Bruce’s voice was filled with regret, as if
everything was everyone else’s fault and he was blameless.
Thalassa seethed in anger but managed to stay calm, “Yes, I know you value honor and love your child. That’s why my mother
gave you the card. It’s a pity we cannot reunite as a family. But I’m quite content with staying by Lysander’s side. At least I can
earn some money for you.”
Bruce was overjoyed on hearing this. He quickly responded, “Yes, Thalassa, we are alike; both of us value honor. I appreciate
your help with the money. When I get a chance,
mom.” I will definitely divorce that old hag and form a family with you and your
“Speaking of which, we haven’t spent much time together. Once people drift apart, so do their feelings. I wish we could go on a
trip together. They say traveling is a great way to bond.” Thalassa’s voice was filled with regret.
“That sounds great. I have plenty of time on my hands lately. We can plan a trip to promote our bond. I would also like to check
up on you and see if you’re doing well with Lysander.” Bruce was thrilled and eager.
“Alright, I’ll book a place and send you the details in a few days.” Thalassa said.
“Great, great, sounds good.” Bruce agreed enthusiastically.
