The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 908
Locked in his icy gaze, Thalassa’s pupils shivered.
The entirety of Central Ring Realty Group belonged to Lysander. Not just this villa, but every luxurious home within his reach. He
was a titan of power, and there was nothing beyond his means.
“It hurts... Let go of me...” Thalassa gasped, her jawbone felt as if it would snap, sending
searing pain that rattled her skull. “You know it hurts, huh?” Lysander lowered his body, his handsome face inches from hers, his
frosty breath washing over her. dangerous, imposing, intimidating.
Chill seemed to seep into Thalassa’s very bones.
Caught unawares, Thalassa bore the brunt of his anger, her heart clenched, and her face twisted in distress. “What... what did I
do?”
Anxiety gnawed at her.
Had he found out about her meeting with Callum?
Other than that, she had nothing to hide.
“What did you do with Callum? Not planning to come clean?” Lysander’s stance was domineering. With one leg planted on the
floor, the other knee on the bed’s edge, his towering form cast a shadow over Thalassa.
In the pale moonlight, he was like a mountain looming before her.
Thalassa tensed all over, her pores constricted with the biting cold.
She knew it. He had discovered her meeting with Callum.
“I did meet Callum today, and we talked for about ten minutes before he left,” Thalassa confessed. Now that Lysander was aware
of the situation, she couldn’t keep it hidden.
“Not taking me seriously, huh?” Lysander’s aura grew colder; his face lowered even closer, the icy threat of his presence making
Thalassa shiver.

“No, how could I not take you seriously? I genuinely spoke with Callum for a brief period and did nothing else.”
“Nothing else? Yet you bought birth control pills? Thalassa, have you already made up your mind about the children?” Lysander’s
voice, cold and menacing, seemed to rise from the depths of hell.
Thalassa’s heart skipped a beat, her pupils contracted.
He knew about the birth control pills?
Was he watching her?
Fear and trepidation magnified within her.
Panicked, she hurriedly explained, “You’ve got it all wrong. How could I do anything with Callum? He only came to give me the
villa, as it was Leopold’s wish to entrust it to me. I bought the pills to be cautious, in case you showed up unexpectedly. I didn’t
want a repeat of the past when we took no precautions. Last time was just luck. What if luck isn’t on my side next time? If I got
pregnant, would you marry me?”
Thalassa laid bare the truth about the villa, something she couldn’t hide. A simple inquiry by Lysander would reveal that the
property was left by Leopold.
It was also known that Callum and Leopold were close friends, and it was natural for Leopold to entrust the villa to her.
But she kept the real purpose of the birth control pills to herself. The incident with her mother and Bruce was something she
could never disclose, fearing that any leak might shock Evelyn into doing something desperate.
She would not reveal anything that could harm Evelyn.
Having seen Evelyn hanging before her eyes, Thalassa could not bear to relive the fear and despair.
If it happened again, she would lose her mother.
So, she dared not tell.
To Evelyn, it was a source of shame, a shadow over her heart.

If Lysander found out, given his nature, he would surely confront Evelyn, and the psychological damage that would cause was
unimaginable.

“Is that so? You’re preparing against me?” Lysander’s voice was dangerously smooth and laced with an oppressive edge. The
grip on her chin loosened slightly.
The pain in her jaw eased, and Thalassa’s throbbing head suddenly felt lighter. She took a labored breath, affirming, “Yes,
besides you, there’s no other man for me. Who else would I need to guard against?”
