The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 749

"Look Mommy, there are so many bubbles. It's so much fun!" Elowen, with her chubby cheeks, was covered in bubbles from the bath foam. Her little hands were busy popping the bubbles as her tiny lips blew them around.

"Me too, Mommy! Will you help me blow some bubbles?" Sophia asked as her face lit up with a carefree smile, which was something that rarely happened.

She too had a handful of bubbles, ready to be blown away. The two kids sat in the bathtub while splashing around with sheer delight.

Thalassa smiled at them; her eyes were filled with maternal love. She felt at peace when she was with her kids.

"Sure, sweetheart, Mommy will help you blow the bubbles." She leaned in pursing her lips, and blew away the bubbles from Sophia's hand.

The bubbles flew and landed on Elowen's face, melting like snowflakes on her soft, childish skin.

"Ha-ha-ha, it’s so much fun, Mommy. I want you to blow mine too!" Elowen's laughter chimed like a bell. Not caring about the bubbles that had landed on her face, she looked simply ecstatic.

Her little hands held a handful of bubbles and waited for Thalassa to blow them away.

Thalassa puckered up again, blowing away the bubbles from Elowen's hands.

Elowen's laughter became more joyous and sweeter. Sophia joined in the laughter too.

Fitch stood near the sofa in the living room and listened to the kids' laughter. His heart melted as he sighed, "While Lysander and Mrs. Everhart were away, the kids seemed so down and barely ate. But Mrs. Everhart's return has brought life back into our home. It makes a difference when their mother is around..."

Before he could finish, he felt a stern gaze upon him. He turned to find Lysander's deep eyes fixed on him.

Fitch straightened up immediately and quickly added, "Of course, their father’s presence is important too. The kids missed you as well and they need their father's company."

Lysander's gaze softened, and he turned his attention towards the bathroom.

Was that so? He thought.

He had arrived home almost at the same time as Thalassa, yet the kids only had eyes for their mother. Not once had they called out for him.
