The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 37

Thalassa shut her eyes tight, so nervous her toes were practically curling. But the anticipated kiss never came.

"Heh..." Lysander chuckled lightly, his warm, husky breath brushing against her lips, carrying an overpowering presence and a faint masculine scent.

Thalassa's heart pounded. Suddenly, her eyes flew open to see the man's handsome face magnified before her, so close that she could see the pores on his skin. His skin was good, firm and elastic, devoid of any blemishes. Though it was smooth, it wasn't the delicate kind like a woman's but carried a uniquely masculine charm.

His attractive thin lips curled slightly, even his deep-set eyes were smiling. He was so good-looking it took Thalassa's breath away.

He was already handsome when he wasn't smiling, but with a smile, he was absolutely captivating.

Thalassa was dumbstruck, blinking in surprise.

What was he laughing at?

Why was he laughing?

She was a little dazed and at a loss.

She wished she could find somewhere to hide, but there was nowhere to go.

Thalassa stiffened against the wall, not daring to move an inch. She finally found her voice, but it came out weak and feeble, "Mr. Sinclair, this is a restroom, you can't... "

She realized she sounded like she was playing hard to get.

She really wanted to slap herself.

Why was she so spineless? She was so scared in front of Mr. Sinclair that she could barely muster the strength to speak.

At the sound of her voice, Lysander's smirk grew wider. He let go of her chin, straightened up, and contemptuously said, "Your charms are not enough to tempt me."

With that, he gave her a deep look and then walked out of the restroom.

So that was her game. Voicing her refusal while her actions were enticing men.

She was crafty, catching people off guard.

Otherwise, how could she have ensnared John to the point of obsession and even fabricated evidence to prove that she was the one rejecting him and he was the one relentlessly pursuing her?

Her game was tight, catching even David off guard, getting him to vouch for her innocence.

In reality, John was just bewitched by her. She was saying no with her words, but her body language and tone were enticing him.
