The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 429

Instantly, she averted her gaze, refusing to look at him anymore.

Laying eyes on a handsome man for too long, one's heart would flutter, perhaps even beat faster, cheeks flushing.

What was this called? This was called infatuation!

Thalassa had always thought she was not the type to be infatuated. However, it seemed she had overestimated her resolve.

Craving beauty was human nature.

Yet, she knew she needed to restrain herself. Because she and Lysander were from different worlds. Between them lay deep grudges.

Charlotte had been in the private dining room for nearly two hours, constantly on the phone with her best friend, complaining about her situation and sharing her crush on Lysander.

Yet, he barely even glanced at her.

She even blamed her grandfather for not telling her sooner that he and Lysander's grandfather had arranged a marriage for them when they were children.

If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have dated other men, creating a barrier between her and Lysander.

Now, she desperately wanted to pursue Lysander, but he was not giving her any opportunities, leaving her in deep distress.

After venting her frustrations to her friend and finishing her meal, she left the dining room, and there, by the window, she saw two people.

A man in a suit radiating confidence.

It was the man she longed for, Lysander!

Seeing him, a smile bloomed on Charlotte's face. She was about to approach when she noticed a woman sitting across from him.

Charlotte squinted at the woman, and her heart tightened upon realizing who it was.

It was Thalassa!

Her long hair fell over her face, but Charlotte recognized her instantly.
