The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 704

"It's all water under the bridge now. Besides, isn't Thalassa sitting right here in front of us? Give her a break; she's been through enough." Hertha, the peacemaker, tried to placate Evelyn.

Evelyn shot a glance at Thalassa. "I can't control you anymore."

With that, she stood up to fetch a plate and cutlery for Thalassa from the kitchen.

"Mom, Bruce hasn't tried to contact you again, has he?" Thalassa was worried that Bruce might seek revenge on Evelyn.

"Does he even have the guts after deceiving me so many times?" Evelyn retorted, her heart now heavy and solid as a rock.

Being fooled by the same man twice was a testament to her own foolishness.

She'd wasted her life on such a devious man, and now she realized it hadn't been worth it at all.

Despite knowing this, her heart still ached. How could one just let go of someone they'd loved? Even though she knew how despicable he was, her heart just wouldn't listen.

Noticing Evelyn's melancholy, Thalassa tried to comfort her. "That's all in the past now. Online dating is pretty popular these days. Why don't I set up a profile for you? You're still young and vibrant, so you can still find someone to share your life with."

Evelyn sighed heavily. "Why waste money on that? I don't have time for such nonsense."

"You were busy looking after my children a few years ago and didn't have much time for yourself. Now that they're at Royal Estates with people to look after them, you have plenty of time. Give it a shot. You might just find someone suitable." Thalassa suggested.

Evelyn had always put Thalassa first. She even delayed her own personal life for her daughter.

Thalassa felt very guilty. She was the one to disrupt Evelyn's life.

Now, she hoped her mother could find a companion to share the sunset years of her life with, so she wouldn't be alone.

Thalassa was Evelyn's daughter, and she knew her mother better than anyone else.
