The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 259

Thalassa was speechless.

Uh-oh, this wasn't quite right.

What was he thinking?

"What's wrong? Were you having second thoughts?" Lysander's voice was icy cold when he noticed her hesitation and reluctance to act.

Thalassa was startled by his frosty demeanor and she quickly responded, "No, no. My legs are just a bit sore and I can't stand up right now."

Saying so, she placed her hand on the ground, intending to use her arm strength to push herself up.

Unfortunately, her hand landed on the shattered remains of a wine glass. Her fingers were instantly cut and started to bleed.

"Ouch!" Thalassa cried out in pain, swiftly withdrawing her hand.

Seeing the blood welling up on her fingers, Lysander grabbed her wrist, hoisting her up from the ground and onto the couch beside him.

He held her bleeding hand, seeing the shards of glass lodged in her flesh. There was blood trickling down the translucent fragments. It looked like a stained glass panel of crimson.

Lysander frowned, reaching for her injured fingers.

Thalassa instinctively recoiled, "Mr. Sinclair, it's just a minor cut. No biggie."

Lysander firmly held her hand, not allowing her to pull away, "Stay still!"

His words were commanding, allowing no room for resistance.

Thalassa froze, not daring to move.

Lysander leaned closer, and his cool breath brushed against her nose, carrying a faint scent of sandalwood.

It was just like five years ago.

Thalassa's heartbeat involuntarily quickened.

With his sharp vision, Lysander gripped the shard of glass and swiftly yanked it out.

The glass shard was removed.

Thalassa gasped in pain, her breath quickening. Although she didn't scream, Lysander noticed the change in her complexion.
