The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 867
Thalassa lowered her head in silence, making her way towards the restroom.
Just as she rounded the corner, a woman stepped out, bumping into her shoulder.
“Watch where you’re going!” The woman shrieked, her tone filled with aggression.
“Actually, you bumped into me...” Thalassa responded, her voice level and factual.
The woman had already been exiting the restroom as Thalassa was entering, so logically speaking, it was the woman who had
bumped into Thalassa. Yet, she had the audacity to play the victim!
It wasn’t Thalassa’s fault, so she had no reason to apologize!
With a cold gaze, she lifted her head, ready to reason with the woman in front of her.
Upon seeing the woman’s face, Thalassa paused.
It was Bruce’s daughter, Susan!
She was dressed in a regal purple evening gown with a V–neck design that accentuated her figure, emphasizing her slender
waistline.
Her hair was swept up, revealing her delicate neck. Her makeup was meticulously done. It was clear she had put great effort into
her appearance.
Why was Susan here?
“Thalassa, it’s you!” Susan’s gaze swept over her, her tone haughty.
Thalassa was dressed in a simple white evening gown, her face was lightly made up, yet her bright eyes and radiant smile gave
off an innocent yet alluring aura.
In contrast to Susan’s elaborate get up, Thalassa seemed even more radiant!
A wave of jealousy surged in Susan’s heart, but she remembered she was here for the party, not to pick a fight with Thalassa.

Not to mention, now was not the time to be enemies with Thalassa.
Feigning surprise, Susan’s angry expression quickly turned into a smile. She softened her tone, “I’m sorry. I thought it was
someone else, so I was a bit harsh. Don’t take it to heart, okay? You’re right, I bumped into you. My apologies.”
Thalassa didn’t want to deal with her, so she gave Susan a brief glance before making her way into the restroom.
Susan shot a venomous glare at Thalassa’s retreating figure before making her way out in her high heels.
Thalassa had initially come to the restroom to calm herself down. She washed her hands and lightly patted her cheeks in front of
the mirror, trying to perk herself up.
She was at the charity dinner for work, to help Ethan keep track of possible businessmen partners. She had to avoid
overthinking. After gathering her thoughts, Thalassa made her way back to the banquet.
Ethan was engaged in conversation with a few businessmen, and it didn’t seem like he needed her assistance, so Thalassa
grabbed a plate and headed towards the buffet to get some desserts, planning to find a quiet corner to indulge herself.
But then she caught sight of a scene happening across the room.
Susan was cozied up to Charlotte, showering her with flattery.
Ms. Ravensong your dress is stunning. A top designer brand, no doubt. You are definitely the star of the party.”
Absolutely, this dress cost me a for–charlotte responded, not the least bit modest. She even lifted her glass, deliberately
revealing the bracelet on her wrist.
“Wow, your bracelet is beautiful. It must have a significant meaning, right? Susan’s eyes were gleaming as she continued to
flatter Charlotte,
“You have a keen eye. This bracelet is a treasured heirloom passed down to the daughters–in–law of the Sinclair family. Now
that I’m wearing it, you probably know what it represents Charlotte replied, amug with satisfaction
At her words, Thalassa felt a pang in her heart. She looked at Charlotte’s wist, and seeing that vibrant and clear bracelet, she felt
