The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 244

Lysander held a cigarette between his fingers, the bright orange glow flickering on his fingertips. A spark was visible in his deep-set eyes.

Yet, the warmth of the ember did nothing to thaw the chill around him. He radiated an icy, sharp aura.

Upon seeing Lysander's icy face, Thalassa felt her breath hitched. She approached him cautiously and asked warily, "Mr. Sinclair, why are you out here so late?"

Just as she got close, Lysander suddenly grabbed her by the nape of her neck.

"Ah!" Thalassa got startled, completely taken off guard.

Before she could react, Lysander yanked her towards him.

She crashed into his chest, and the ember from the cigarette in Lysander's hand nearly scorched her hand.

Thalassa could distinctly feel a slight heat streak across her hand.

As the ember was about to touch her skin, Lysander moved his hand away. He tossed the cigarette on the ground and stomped it out with his black leather shoe.

However, his grip on her neck didn't loosen.

Thalassa winced in pain, frowning, "Mr. Sinclair, you're hurting me."

Lysander swiftly moved his hand from her neck to her waist, pulling her close, making her unable to escape.

His face was stern and his icy gaze was condescending. He said in a nonchalant tone, "How long did you date your ex-boyfriend?"

His voice was bone-chilling.

Thalassa felt a wave of fear and unease. Why was he suddenly asking this?

Lysander now radiated a dangerous aura. Thalassa didn't dare to lie, so she confessed, "Two years."

She met Leopold in college. He pursued her for two months, and she agreed, then they naturally fell together.

Lysander's lips curled into a cold smirk, "Two years, quite the love story."

If she dated her ex-boyfriend for two years, and she loved him, why was she still a virgin?

Five years ago, in the old barn, he had deeply felt that she was a virgin.

It was a feeling that couldn't be faked.
