The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 1940

Thalassa unzipped the bag and began pulling out the treats: "Your favorite KFC, marshmallows, Milky Ways..."

She was laying out Elowen's favorite snacks when she remembered something Elowen had mentioned earlier - she had lost two of her molars, making it difficult to eat.

Suddenly, Thalassa froze, awkwardly looking at Elowen, "I'm so sorry, sweetheart. I didn't know about your teeth before I came..."

"It's okay, Mom. I love anything you give me." Elowen's bright, cheerful smile took the bag from Thalassa's hands.

Seeing Elowen's joy, Thalassa felt a wave of relief wash over her, returning to her soft smile. "As long as you're happy, that's what matters."

Later, Thalassa and Lysander visited Atticus's dorm, where the techie vibe was strong, with all four boys majoring in computer science.

Thalassa had brought a tablet for him, only to realize it was the least sophisticated among the gadgets in Atticus's room.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, she was comforted by Atticus, just as Dorian and Elowen had done earlier.

Elowen's dorm was a snack haven, filled with treats. Unlike the boys' subdued grey tones, Elowen's room was a burst of pink – a true girly haven.

The last stop was Sophia's dorm. Sophia had always had a knack for antiques, showing a remarkable talent for appraisal from a young age.

The other three girls living with her also shared an interest in antiques, with each desk adorned with a small glass cabinet showcasing various jade pieces and collectibles.

Thalassa hadn't forgotten about Sophia's passion and had brought her a piece from Lysander's collection of jade.

Sophia's face lit up with a visible smile as she quickly took Thalassa's gift, her voice soft and grateful.

While the gifts for Atticus, Dorian, and Elowen were received with polite enthusiasm, Sophia's genuine delight gave Thalassa a real sense of accomplishment.
