The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 1003

He'd been handed a top-priority mission. An anonymous tipster had sounded the alarm about crimes at the Crest Summit Hotel, where an employee named Elliott and an outsider by the name of Bruce were in cahoots and preyed on numerous women.

The whistleblower pleaded for press exposure to reveal the truth behind the hotel's facade.

Callum went on investigation last night in the disguise of a random hotel guest.

It was no easy task to gather evidence, as he didn’t catch at the time of an incident.

By sheer chance, he stumbled upon Bruce abducting Thalassa into a room. Callum hastily secured a spare room card from the front desk and prepared to burst in and rescue Thalassa. But only Elliott was there. Bruce had fled.

Yesterday, his search had been fruitless at first — until he confronted Thalassa and the kidnappers. But broadcasting Thalassa's ordeal would tarnish her reputation; it couldn't be made public.

So, he cleverly coaxed incriminating words from the hotel owner and got them on tape. This was the best evidence.

Thalassa's eyes flickered with recognition. She had overheard Elliott and Bruce during the handoff. Clearly, they were behind the victimization of many women.

Callum's account matched the conversation between Elliott and Bruce she had witnessed.

Thalassa trusted in Callum, and she grew to respect his role as a journalist championing social justice.

His dedication to expose these vile entrepreneurs would prevent future innocents from harm.

Such integrity and kindness demanded absolute respect.

"Thank you." Thalassa said sincerely, "Not just for me, but for all those other women who remain strangers to us."

Callum's lips curled into a smile. "Let's get some grub. A full belly fuels the fight for what's right."

With that, he stood up and walked away.

Thalassa's doubts about Callum dissipated and was replaced with trust. He was a friend of Leopold, so he wouldn’t cause her any harm. Moreover, his commitment to aiding the distressed spoke volumes of his character.
