The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 217

Thalassa was feeling pretty antsy. Wasn't Mr. Sinclair a bachelor? Why the heck would a mother-in-law show up looking for him?

Did he tie the knot on the down-low?

She really couldn't wrap her head around these rich people's lives.

As a secretary, part of her job was dealing with the boss's problems.

"I've never heard of Mr. Sinclair getting hitched. Are you guys sure you haven't crossed your wires? How about this? Let her chill for a sec. I'll be right down."

If this lady was a phony, she couldn't just let her run up and bother Mr. Sinclair. If she did, she'd be dropping the ball.

But if this was actually Mr. Sinclair's mother, turning her away at the door would be stepping on toes. That'd be dropping the ball, too.

So she had to get to the bottom of this before she could make a call.

"Alrighty then." The receptionist hung up the phone, kept her smile, and politely told the woman in front of her, "My apologies; our secretary says she's never heard of Mr. Sinclair getting married. She asks that you hang tight for a moment while she comes down to see you."

Evelyn was getting antsy. She wanted to prove her claim was legit, so she blurted out, "Mr. Sinclair built a mansion for our family. He even drove my daughter home. They're dating, so I really am Mr. Sinclair's future mother-in-law. Let me in; I need to have a chat with Mr. Sinclair."

Just then, the doors to the private elevator opened, and out came Lysander, radiating a noble air in his hand-tailored black suit and deep purple tie.

Evelyn's voice was loud. The second the elevator doors opened, Lysander heard her claim to be his future mother-in-law and her demand to see him.

He stepped out of the elevator and looked toward the reception desk.

"Good morning, Mr. Sinclair." The receptionist greeted him as soon as she saw him standing straight.

Evelyn quickly turned around. She saw a handsome, regal man standing there. A man she recognized from before in Hollowbrook.

And the receptionist was calling him Mr. Sinclair.

He was Thalassa's boss, no doubt about it.
