The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 634

Thalassa was startled, her entire body colliding with the man's chest.

His chest was firm, brimming with raw masculine power. Her eyes, wide and panicked, met his stern, icy gaze.

His face was rugged, his skin tanned, radiating a strong masculine allure.

Thalassa's heart stuttered and she quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Captain Payne, I didn't mean to."

Thalassa apologized to Payne, trying to pull away and exit his embrace.

Suddenly, a surge of overwhelming presence flooded in, the air vibrating with disruption.

Thalassa's heart skipped a beat, and in the next second, her wrist was seized, with a swift tug, she was pulled out of Payne's arms.

Facing Lysander's deep and cold eyes, Thalassa caught her breath, her body stiffening, her legs feeling numb as if they weren't her own.

Lysander's handsome face darkened, his voice cold as ice. "What were you doing just now?"

His eyes followed down her face and saw her dress. His gaze was cold and dark with annoyance.

She was wearing a low-cut evening dress. One could see a glimpse of her curves if they leaned in too close.

And she had just thrown herself into Payne's arms!

Thalassa panicked, wanting to explain.

Payne said, his tone casual and nonchalant, "This lady is quite interesting, trying to pique my interest in a case. You're interrupting at a rather unfortunate time, Lysander."

He smiled, and his stern eyes were filled with an ambiguous glint, watching Lysander unblinkingly.
