The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 515

Dorian pouted, choosing to remain silent.

After lingering a bit longer under the tunnel, Thalassa began leading Evelyn and the children uphill.

Thalassa walked ahead, hand-in-hand with Elowen and Sophia, while Evelyn trailed behind, guiding Dorian and Atticus.

The path beneath the overpass was ill-maintained, rugged, and littered with stones.

They had to tread carefully.

"Ouch!" Elowen suddenly tripped over a large rock. Her petite figure lurched forward.

Thalassa sprang into action, reaching out to steady her but she was a moment too late.

"Ow!" Elowen's forehead hit a large stone. The pain triggered immediate tears.

Her crying was heart-wrenching.

Thalassa swiftly scooped up Elowen, attempting to soothe her, "Where did you hurt yourself, Elowen? Don't cry. Tell mommy where it hurts."

Under the overpass, where light was scarce, it was impossible to see clearly. Thalassa felt helpless.

"Ow... it hurts..." Elowen wept uncontrollably, unable to articulate where she was hurt.

Thalassa quickly wiped the tears off Elowen's face. However, her hand came away not just with tears but a thick, warm liquid.

Those weren't tears.

It was blood!

Thalassa's heart seized in panic, and her breath hitched, "Oh God, Elowen's bleeding!"

Her voice wavered with fear.

"Don't panic. Let's hurry up," Evelyn, too, became anxious. She gestured for Dorian to get onto her back, then scooped up Atticus and Sophia.

In times of crisis, surprising strength can be summoned.
