The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 1162

Doctors and nurses arrived in a flash, taking Thalassa from Lysander's arms and rushing her on a gurney toward the emergency room.

Lysander followed until the swinging doors of the ER halted his pace.

He stood at the threshold, and his brow furrowed as the lights within flickered to life. The usually composed man began to pace restlessly, unable to conceal his anxiety.

A nurse approached, noticing one of his pant legs burned in half. His high-quality suit was jagged and his sturdy calf was bore all red and blistered. Some blisters had burst and oozed blood in a shocking display.

He seemed oblivious to his own injury. His intense gaze was fixed on the big “On Surgery” on ER doors.

"Sir, your leg is burned; you might want to have that looked at in the treatment room. Infections can be quite troublesome," the nurse said with genuine concern.

"No need," Lysander dismissed her mid-sentence, his icy stare not wavering from the ER doors, not sparing her a single glance.

Intimidated by his brooding and intimidating aura, the nurse stepped back, clutching her medical kit and walking away.

Lysander's gaze lingered on the words "On Surgery" and knew it would be a while. He settled on a nearby waiting chair and pulled out his phone.

"Trace Thalassa's movements today. Find out who she's been in contact with," he ordered his head of security.

After ending the call, his eyes tightened further as he continued to watch the ER doors; his presence was dark and ominous.

The half-hour wait felt like an eternity to Lysander. When the doors finally swung open, he stood instantly and addressed the exiting doctor, "How is she?"

Recognizing Lysander as the CEO of the Sinclair Group, one of Starhaven's most influential figures, the doctor replied with utmost respect, "The patient arrived in time. She wasn't burned, just suffered from smoke inhalation. We've administered oxygen and dealt with it on time. She's out of danger now."
