The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 640

Thalassa and Hertha returned to Vibrant Oasis Residences.

Thalassa headed straight for the bathroom to take a shower, exchanging her party dress for comfy pajamas. She neatly folded her gown and put it in a shopping bag.

Hertha, puzzled by this, asked, "What are you doing? Your dress should be hung in the closet to avoid wrinkles."

"I'm going to return it tomorrow. This dress cost me two thousand dollars. I don't have much occasion to wear it," Thalassa explained.

She had kept the receipt and the tags intact, all for the sake of returning it with ease.

"Why would you return it? You couldn't afford to wear expensive clothes before, but now you can. You should take advantage of that," Hertha argued.

The two were best friends, sharing everything with each other and always speaking their minds.

Whatever they said to each other, they never took it personally, knowing that only a true friend would tell each other the truth.

Thalassa replied, "I rarely attend fancy events and the dress would just gather dust in the closet. Over time, it would fade and lose its shape. It would be better to return it and let someone else who needs it have it. Besides, I'm still living paycheck to paycheck. I need to spend my money wisely. Luxuries like this dress aren't necessary for me."

"You’re a billionaire now, Thalassa. You can afford to splurge a little. Don't be too hard on yourself. All women love to dress up," Hertha insisted, taking the dress out of the bag and insisting she keep it.

"I gave the billion back to Lysander," Thalassa confessed.

Even though Lysander had given her a credit card, she hadn't used it. The card had disappeared from her bedside table, likely retrieved by Lysander.

With the billion returned, it felt like a chapter in her life had ended.
