The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 233

"I'm really into Thalassa." Leopold didn't say it out loud, just kept it to himself.

Looking at his glum face, Lysander said, "You just gonna let your new company go to shit like this? Instead of drowning in sorrow here, you're better off busting your ass at work."

Leopold snapped out of it and put down his glass. With a slight drunken glint in his eyes, he chuckled, "Eh, I just got some crap on my mind, so chew the fat with you. Guess I'll bounce and get back to work. Sorry to bug you."

Leopold got up and left.

Having finished the red wine Leopold had just poured him, Lysander moved back to his desk and got down to business.

Thalassa was on the web, hunting for a job with a fat paycheck.

Suddenly, her phone rang. Someone invited her for an interview.

It was a company where she'd shot off her resume the night before.

This company was new in Starhaven with loads of positions to fill.

When Thalassa heard they wanted her for an interview for a secretary assistant gig, she was over the moon and jumped at the chance.

That afternoon, she put on some minimal makeup and suited up with her professional women's outfit.

Feeling pumped, she headed out.

Though the company was fresh off the boat, it was no small fry.

Even if it couldn't hold a candle to international corporations like the Sinclair group, it was no small potatoes.

It was a big-league company.

If she could land a secretary gig there, it would be nice.

Thalassa walked into the interview room. There were three interviewers, two guys were in professional suits.

One woman, in a professional women's suit, looked every bit the white-collar worker.

Thalassa sat across from them, feeling a bit jittery.

The female interviewer glanced at her resume and asked, "You spent two years at Starhaven College but didn't graduate. Care to explain?"
