The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 496

The email had barely been clicked open when the phone beside him buzzed incessantly.

It was an internal call.

Lysander picked up the receiver with one hand.

Thalassa’s voice, laced with tension and apprehension, echoed through the line, “Mr. Sinclair, Amelia is here. She wants to see you.”

Just a moment ago, Thalassa had been fretting about how to prevent Lysander from reading that document.

Fortunately, the reception desk had called her with news that someone was looking for Mr. Sinclair.

The visitor claimed to be Leopold's mother.

Thalassa knew it was Amelia immediately.

After hanging up, she hastily dialed Lysander’s number, stalling for time.

“Have her wait,” Lysander said, his voice commanding.

Just as he was about to hang up, Thalassa hurriedly added, “It seems urgent, like she has an important matter to discuss.”

“Is it her who’s in a hurry, or is it you?” Lysander asked, his deep, piercing voice chilling the line.

Thalassa hesitated. She was already so fraught and anxious. Now she felt more tightened.

Why would Lysander ask such a question?

Maybe he had already seen the document and understood her connections with the toy shop owner?

Maybe he realized she was the one who bought the circular pendant “toy” for Sophia?

Was he catching on to her?

Thalassa's heart pounded wildly, and she had to exert all her strength to suppress the panic in her voice.
