The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 298

Thalassa was freaking out, scared that Evelyn would come over, especially with four adorable kids in tow.

Her heart pounded as she quickly dashed toward Evelyn, hoping to prevent her from coming her way.

"Mom, I'm back, aren't I?" Thalassa, gripping Evelyn's arms, said nervously.

Evelyn, being well-acquainted with her daughter, could tell she was on edge. She forcefully and puzzledly looked behind her, "Who brought you back? You seem so nervous."

Seeing her looking toward Lysander's direction, Thalassa became even more anxious and quickly blocked Evelyn's view, "No one, I took a taxi back."

While talking, she glanced back and found the spot where the black car had been parked was now empty.

Lysander's Rolls-Royce had long gone.

Only then did her tense heart relax a bit.

"Look at you, all jittery from taking a taxi back. If I didn't know better, I'd think it was your boss who brought you back. How could you possibly match up to a big shot like him with your circumstances? It would be good enough if you could find a regular guy who doesn't mind your job or your four kids," Evelyn looked at her.

Feeling ridiculed, Thalassa became a bit upset and said seriously, "Mom, how can you talk like that? Where am I lacking? And those four kids are my treasures, and I don't need to care about others' views."

Having corrected Evelyn's perspective, Thalassa turned and headed home.

Evelyn realized she had been a bit too harsh. Thalassa was very pretty, and she was good at her job.

Knowing she was in the wrong, Evelyn quickly followed her, but she had never apologized in her life.

She wouldn't apologize now, either. Instead, her tone softened, "Yes, the kids are lovely. But you work so hard every day, it's not enough to support four kids. Don't you feel tired?"
