The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 1346

Lysander's hand hovered in the air, a moment of hesitation in his steely gaze as he looked deeply at her.

Her frantic retreat was a clear sign of resistance. Trembling on unsteady legs, she still managed to dodge his touch.

Pain shaded his eyes, and his voice resonant with hurt, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Propping herself on the kitchen counter, Thalassa lifted her tear-filled eyes to his. She took a deep breath, attempting to exhale the heavy sorrow that weighed on her heart. Her voice quivered as she asked, "Was it you who had my mom go to the police station to accuse Bruce of fraud?"

Lysander's piercing eyes fixed on her, seeing the grief and despair in hers.

Her eyes shone with unshed tears, defiant in her resolve not to let them fall.

The anguish and despair were evident, but she refused to let a single sob escape, especially not in front of him.

Seeing her like this caused a dull ache in Lysander's heart. He knew how much Evelyn's death had affected her.

"Yes, I asked her to testify," Lysander admitted gravely, his voice low.

As soon as he spoke, Thalassa's tears breached their barriers, her breathing shaky. "The video that went viral—that was you having it taken down from everywhere?"

Her voice trembled, struggling to form coherent sentences. She wanted to hear the words from Lysander himself. If he denied it, she could cling to a shred of hope—though she wasn't even sure what she was hoping for.

Asking these questions was like backing herself into a corner, shattering the last vestiges of hope with each query.

"Yes, the video shouldn't be spread," Lysander responded without hesitation, his tone firm as he watched Thalassa.
