The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 497

Lysander sat in the CEO's chair with a sullen and domineering poise. His gaze was flickering towards Amelia.

"Lysander, we really need your help this time. Ever since Leopold met this woman, Thalassa, he's gone missing. He hasn't been home for days, and none of his acquaintances have seen him. I'm really afraid he's gotten into trouble..." Amelia pleaded with urgency.

She had employed her connections, searched high and low, but to no avail.

Leopold had risked his life before by racing cars recklessly and now he had disappeared.

Amelia was worried sick. She lost sleep over her concerns.

Thalassa stood quietly, her hands clenched in front of her, her brow furrowed in thought.

She silently listened to the conversation in the room.

When she didn't hear a response from Lysander, she lifted her gaze to meet his, only to find his deep, inscrutable eyes fixed on her.

He looked at her like a lion eyeing its prey. His manner was composed, intimidating, and intense.

Thalassa's heart skipped a beat under his scrutiny.

Why was he looking at her like that?

Could she possibly provide the answer as to Leopold's whereabouts?

"Lysander, I know it's too presumptuous of me to ask you for help, but I really don't have any other options." Amelia was on the verge of tears. Her voice was breaking as she admitted her desperation.

"We've been searching for him for a long time, and we've looked everywhere. His grandfather even sent out search parties. But we haven't found him anywhere. I had no choice but to come to you." Amelia pleaded, wiping away the tears from her eyes corners.

"You can’t find a person who wants to hide. There’s no use to come to me." Lysander's tone was stern.

"No, Lysander, you're different; you can make this woman tell the truth! She must know where Leopold is!" Amelia suddenly turned towards Thalassa; her face was a mix of grief and reproach, her gaze sharp.

"She broke up with Leopold, then lured him back in, playing hard to get and driving him mad. He even gave her the heirloom bracelet that your grandmother gave me! When I found out, I demanded the bracelet back. Leopold got angry and left home, he hasn't returned since."

Amelia's breathing was erratic; her anger was so palpable as she stared at Thalassa.
