The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 135

Greta said, "Yesterday while I was cleaning the gutters, I stumbled upon this emerald pendant, shaped like a cloud. Were you looking for this?"

Upon hearing this, Thalassa's mind went into disarray, and her entire body stiffened. This cloud-shaped emerald pendant was left to her by the children's father as a token to find him. Over the years, she had never found it, and she had lost hope and stopped searching for it. She had planned to raise the kids on her own, live a quiet and stable life.

Even without a father, she would give the kids double the love, making up for their lack of a paternal figure.

She had accepted this reality, not expecting to find their father anymore. But now, her neighbor was telling her she found the emerald pendant. Thalassa was feeling a mix of surprise, joy, disbelief, and worry.

"Thalassa, why so quiet? Don't need this emerald pendant anymore? Then I..." Greta started to nudge, sensing Thalassa's silence.

Snapping back to reality, Thalassa quickly said, "I need it, of course I need it. Greta, please keep it safe for me. I'll be right over. I can't thank you enough."

Hearing Thalassa's response, Greta contentedly said, "Okay, hurry up then. I'll wait for you."

After hanging up, Thalassa was both excited and nervous. She went to the living room and told her mother Evelyn, "Mom, I need to head back to the village. Now."

"What's the rush? Something happened back home?" Evelyn was puzzled at Thalassa's frantic demeanor.

Thalassa never mentioned the children's father or the emerald pendant to Evelyn. Caught off guard, she quickly said, "Something important came up. I need to go back immediately."

As she spoke, she started putting on her shoes, ready to leave. Finding the emerald pendant meant possibly finding the children's father. The painful memories from five years ago had passed. The kids longed for a father's company. Even though Thalassa didn't want to revisit the past, she now had to face it.
