The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 1506

Susan's phone buzzed with a notification of a deposit, but before she could even crack a smile, her nerves tensed up abruptly.

"Who's looking for me?" Susan asked, warned.

In this world, Susan was alone. Her mother had followed her father in a suicide on the day of his death. Her relatives and friends, knowing she had fallen on hard times and was practically living hand to mouth, steered clear of her. How could they possibly be seeking her out?

She had been living in this rundown, dilapidated place for over two years, and not once had anyone come looking for her.

Why would someone suddenly be asking for her now?

The old house was poorly insulated against sound, and the deep, narrow alleys echoed every word. Even with voices not far off, Susan could hear them from inside.

Callum glanced vigilantly towards the source of the voices, his voice a hushed whisper, "Did you tick someone off today without realizing? Does Lysander strike you as the type to wait until the next day to settle a score?"

Susan's eyes widened in shock. Panicked, she was at her wits' end, "Lysander sent someone after me? Over Thalassa?"

"What else?" Callum replied, his gaze dripping with disdain.

Susan really had the audacity to pull a knife on Thalassa, even injuring her. She must have a death wish!

"Lysander's supposed to marry Rosalind and use my hand to get rid of Thalassa, right?" Susan mumbled, confusion clouding her thoughts. Then, like a lightbulb moment, clarity struck.

"Damn, I've been played! I need to bolt. Cover for me, will you?" Susan quickly pocketed her phone and slipped out the back door.
