The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 703

"Ouch!" A cry of pain instinctively escaped from her lips.

She hadn't noticed before, but her ear was really swollen.

It was a mark from Lysander's bite. He'd bitten down hard.

She'd never bitten him that intensely before.

Thalassa looked up and saw the worried eyes of the four little ones staring at her, waiting for her response.

Feeling a bit uncomfortable, Thalassa dodged their gaze. "Yeah, a bee stung me, so you guys need to be careful not to provoke bees." She anxiously explained.

"Wow, real bees? That's scary." Elowen's mouth formed a surprised ‘o’ shape. Her chubby hands covered her mouth, making her look adorably shocked.

The other three looked at each other, clearly surprised as well.

Fitch, standing by the table, immediately became anxious. "The flowers in the garden are blooming, so their scent could attract bees. I'll step up the prevention and make sure no bees get into the house. I won’t let the kids get hurt.” He chimed in.

"Yeah, that'd be good." Thalassa nodded as her eyes instinctively shifted to Lysander. His dangerous, oppressive gaze met hers, and his face looked as gloomy as a stormy sky.

Thalassa paused, quickly looked away, and continued to eat her dinner.

It wasn't her problem. They were talking about bees, not him.

If he insisted on identifying with the bee, there was nothing she could do.

...

Time passed quickly. In an instant, two weeks had gone by.

Thalassa's foot had almost fully recovered, thanks to proper rest and care.

Apart from a slight limp when walking, everything else was normal. She could wear shoes and walk without assistance.

Thalassa had been at Royal Estates for two weeks straight.
