The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 26

Her ID card showed she was 45, but the woman in front of the cop just couldn't match in appearance.

Thalassa's heart skipped a beat. Just as feared, the inevitable happened.

Thankfully, the photo on the ID card was of her mom when she was young, and she and Evelyn looked strikingly alike.

People always said she was the spitting image of a young Evelyn.

Awkwardly, she chuckled and said, "Well, I do a lot of cosmetic treatments, even had some facelift surgeries, so I might look a bit younger than my age."

The officer gave her another puzzled look, but didn't dwell on it and just proceeded with the registration.

Facelift surgeries were pretty commonplace. It wasn’t a big deal to see someone in their 40s looking like they were in their 20s.

Thalassa let out a sigh of relief. Thank god she wasn't busted, or she could kiss her job at the Sinclair group goodbye.

She had a big family to support. If she lost her job, they'd have no money and would be in serious trouble.

Just as her nerves started to relax, Thalassa felt a cold gaze on her.

She turned around and found Lysander's icy eyes staring at her.

The intensity of his gaze sent shivers down her spine. Holy crap, it was terrifying. What had she done wrong?

A mocking smirk appeared on Lysander's face. He looked away in disdain.

This woman… no wonder she was so desperate, hooking up with random men. Because she was dirt poor yet obsessed with beauty treatments and addicted to facelift surgeries.

Her face was full of chemical fillers.

The thought of him touching her, even finding her skin soft and familiar, sent chills down Lysander's spine.

How could he be interested in a woman who's had facelift surgeries?

The case was moving forward smoothly, supported by David's testimony and the recorded evidence.
