The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 1610

Lysander's gaze was intense and filled with anticipation as he looked at Thalassa. For the first time, his usually unshakable confidence was replaced by nerves. Despite being a titan in the business world, where he navigated deals with unwavering certainty, Thalassa brought out an uncertainty in him that he couldn't shake off.

Whenever he thought of Thalassa, he realized he was profoundly in love with her—a kind of love that propelled him to protect her at all costs, even if it meant putting himself in harm's way.

Lysander had struggled with this feeling, recalling his father's warning not to fall too hard for a woman, especially one who might not reciprocate his feelings. This advice had made him hold back his emotions, claiming Thalassa as his own but never truly opening his heart to her.

However, after a three-year separation that felt like a lifetime, Lysander's first sight upon waking was Thalassa, and in that moment, he decided to live in the present and cherish the person in front of him, regardless of the future.

Unable to contain his feelings any longer, even without knowing if Thalassa shared his sentiments, Lysander poured out his heart to her. Her passionate response to his kiss earlier had given him hope that she might feel the same way about him.

With a racing heart, Lysander confessed his love and asked Thalassa if she loved him back. It was a leap of faith for a man who never took risks without assurance.

Thalassa was taken aback, and her hesitation sent waves of anxiety through Lysander, fearing a rejection that would confirm his deepest insecurities.

Just then, the ringing of a smartphone broke the tension. Thalassa quickly answered the call, learning that her aunt had fainted and Dr. Funke was attending to her. Instantly, concern took over, and she prepared to leave immediately.

As she turned to inform Lysander, she found him struggling to stand, his legs failing him. Despite the effort causing his face to tense and his brows to furrow, Lysander refused to give up, showing his determination to be strong for Thalassa.

Seeing his struggle, Thalassa rushed to his side, trying to help him up, but his weight was too much for her to manage alone. Reluctantly, she let go and ran out to call David for help.

This moment underscored the depth of their connection and the challenges they faced, not just physically but emotionally, as they navigated the uncertainties of their future together.
