The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 138

Thalassa was still rooted to the spot, completely blindsided by this turn of events. Turned out it was Lysander who had built a mansion for her family.

The reason? Last time he visited, there wasn't even a decent chair for him to sit on.

Previously, she had assumed that Lysander was Isabella's boyfriend and that he came to Hollowbrook specifically to see her. If he was here to see Isabella, why did he eat at her house?

She wasn't a fan of Isabella, so she started to resent him and intentionally gave him a chair full of dust and cobwebs, with one leg even broken. He was clearly pissed, stormed off, and even said that the food in Hollowbrook wasn't good enough for his taste.

She never expected that just because of this, he would demolish their home and build such a huge villa.

Talk about turning the other cheek.

"Um, may I ask, how much did this villa cost?" Thalassa ventured, after recovering from her shock.

The young man replied, "I'm not sure, I'm just in charge of handing over the keys and documents to you."

"Well, did your boss leave any other instructions?" Thalassa asked.

She had a hunch that things were not as simple as they seemed. Even if Lysander was loaded, he wouldn't build a mansion for her family over such a trivial matter, right? She would definitely pay him back for the cost of building the villa.

Once she returned to Starhaven, she would ask Lysander herself how much the villa cost and when she could afford it, she would pay him back.

Looked like she'll have to find more part-time jobs in the future. She couldn't accept something for nothing, she had to pay him back. Otherwise, she would feel uncomfortable living in a villa built by him, especially since there was nothing going on between she and Lysander.

"No other instructions." The young man shook his head, "I have to go back to Starhaven today and since you guys rented a car, I can hitch a ride."
