The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 31

Elowen started to sob, and Dorian couldn't hold back anymore. He knew he'd messed up. With a downturned mouth and tears swirling in his eyes, he couldn't hold it back anymore and burst into tears, "Mom, grandma, I won't do it again, I know I was wrong. Mom, you can't leave me. I can't be without you..."

Even the usually stone-cold Atticus and Sophia felt scared, they shared a glance with each other, their little faces turning red with worry, their eyes also starting to redden.

They knew they'd messed up.

Hertha also broke down crying, "Oh, what are we gonna do..."

Thalassa quietly wiped her tears at the side, not just because she was moved by their emotions, but also because her heart ached. Over the years, her mother, Evelyn, had been helping her take care of the children, and though she complained often, part of it was genuine.

Thalassa had been busy outside for these years, she also suffered a lot during her work, to say she wasn't tired or stressed was a lie.

Seeing the kids and Evelyn crying their hearts out, everyone in the room seemed to fall apart, even her usually strong nerves couldn't hold up and she started to cry.

David's phone was loud, even without the speaker on, the voices from the other end could be heard by others.

Especially when the family's voices were heart-wrenching, it was hard not to let Lysander hear.

David could tell that the family was pitiful, his heart softened a bit and he looked at Lysander questioningly.

But Lysander's face was gloomy, his eyes cold as ice.

Even so, David held the receiver and tentatively asked, "Mr. Sinclair, do you think we can cut them some slack?"

Lysander's voice was cold, "If they knew the consequences, they shouldn't have acted rashly. Everyone has to pay for their mistakes."

Just because they were pitiful, they could get away with their actions?

If they had behaved properly, how could they have let four children barge into someone else's office and damage private property?

Lysander was never a philanthropist, and he had no obligation to sympathize with the pitiful.

Besides, there's always something hateful about people who are pitiful.
