The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 17

Thalassa was already in a crappy mood, and now the CEO was going out of his way to make things worse for her.

Faye, seeing Thalassa acting all high and mighty, was about to give her a piece of her mind when a single glance from Lysander shut her up.

"Are you blind or something? Can't you see my foot here?" Lysander stood up and walked towards her, his tall figure casting a gigantic shadow over her, his icy aura following him.

Wasn't she trying to get his attention? Rubbing against his suit, sweeping his shoes with her broom. Let's see what else she's got!

Thalassa took a step back under his intimidating presence and finally noticed the white dust on his shiny black shoes. It wasn't a footprint, but a mark left by the broom. His shoes were so shiny that the fine line of dust seemed glaringly obvious.

Thalassa suddenly realized she might have accidentally swept his shoes. No wonder he accused her of not using her eyes.

This was him picking a fight. He was a big deal, not someone she could afford to piss off.

She looked up at him, a nervous smile on her face. "Yeah, Mr. Sinclair, you're right, my bad. I'll clean it up for you, don't be mad."

She quickly took out a cloth from her waist and squatted down, giving his shoes a quick wipe.

Just then, her phone rang. It was the head of the Cleaning Department. She hurriedly answered, "Okay, I'm on my way."

She only managed to clean one shoe when she had to leave, still in her squatting position, looking up at his handsome face with its sharp features. From this angle, his face seemed to glow under the lights, making him look divine.

Thalassa was so taken aback, her heart beating fast. She quickly said, "John needs me, I have to go, bye, Mr. Sinclair!" Without waiting for his response, she threw the cloth down and ran out of the meeting room like a scared rabbit.

Watching Thalassa run off like a bunny, Lysander's face became icy, his mood sour. He couldn't believe a woman had the guts to leave him with only one shoe cleaned. She was bold!

Lysander asked Faye coldly, "Who's John?" The man made Thalassa leave without even cleaning both his shoes. Was that man more important to her than him?!

Used to being worshipped and prioritized, Lysander's mood worsened.

Faye answered, "He's the security guard who confessed to her at the elevator yesterday."

Faye was pissed at Thalassa's constant attempts to attract Mr. Sinclair's attention and allure him.

Exaggerating, she said, "I heard from the head of cleaning, she turned down John at first, but when he said he has two houses here in the city, she agreed to be with him. She's probably meeting him now."

Yesterday, Lysander saw Thalassa being pursued at the elevator, but she firmly rejected the guy, so he didn't think much of it.
