The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 106

Thalassa quickly chimed in, "Mr. Sinclair, although Joie has always been jealous about me, she's just a pawn spreading these rumors to get me kicked out of the Sinclair group."

"Thalassa, you shouldn't shoot off your mouth without evidence! No one's controlling me, I did all this myself!" Joie retorted, glaring at Thalassa nervously.

Thalassa, "I overheard at the staircase..."

"Me talking to myself?" Joie cut her off.

She was sure Thalassa hadn't seen that person. There were no cameras in the stairwell, so there was no way to identify them.

Thalassa was at a loss for words.

Seeing the intent in Joie's eyes, she suddenly realized she had no proof.

Lysander wouldn't believe her word alone.

She could only swallow her upcoming words.

"I admit I can be a bit neurotic, often talking to myself after doing something wrong. If you heard me, I admit it." Joie explained, all in an attempt to win Mr. Sinclair's trust.

"Enough!" Lysander snapped.

His cold and angry voice had Joie shaking like a leaf.

Thalassa also flinched at his rebuke.

Lysander's icy gaze shifted to Thalassa and he said, "What are you still doing here?"
