The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 147

Lysander must hate thieves like the plague. There was no way he'd just help Thalassa out of a jam because she made a call.

Isabella's real game was to pin a criminal record on Thalassa, to get her locked up, and to make Lysander loathe her to the core!

It's a triple whammy plan.

Isabella's mind sure worked in mysterious ways, which were smarter than that nitwit Faye Brennan.

On the surface, Isabella seemed super concerned about Thalassa, but deep down she was grinning.

"Got it." David responds and hangs up.

He turned to Lysander in the back seat, "Isabella called. Thalassa's been nicked for stealing. She's being held at the Hollowbrook police station."

If you were stealing in Hollowbrook, it would be the duty of police of this district to catch the suspect.

Lysander and David arrived in Hollowbrook yesterday. It was too late to head back, so they rested in a hotel downtown. This morning, as they were heading back to Starhaven, Isabella rang.

Lysander went cold as ice in an instant, a slight frown on his face.

He'd seen Thalassa's file, she'd been recorded for stealing before.

She was not exactly on a shoestring budget, but she still risked stealing, it must be something worth a pretty penny to make her gamble.

He was curious to see what tickled her thieving fancy, what was worth risking a jail sentence!

Lysander ordered in a stern voice, "Head to the police station."

"Roger that." David started the car.

The station was a hop, skip and jump away from downtown Hollowbrook, just a short drive.

When Lysander strode into the police station, the cops were momentarily taken aback by his commanding presence. All cops were trained, so they had been back to composure.
