The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 899

"That's it," Thalassa said.

Before she could react, the call had ended.

Thalassa pulled the phone from her ear, wiping the sweat from her brow.

Only heaven knows the amount of courage and mental fortitude it took for her to call Lysander and say those words.

Her heart had nearly leapt from her chest as she placed the call.

She hadn't found a house yet, and she wasn't taking Evelyn to see one tonight. Instead, she was heading to Fortune Restaurant to meet Callum.

Callum had said he wanted to discuss something about Leopold with her.

That statement had been gnawing at her mind, curiosity bubbling within her as she wondered what Callum wanted to say.

She couldn't let Lysander know about the meeting with Callum, or else he'd blow his top.

So, she had no choice but to use house hunting as an excuse.

She was terrified that if Lysander asked too many questions, she'd slip up and reveal what was really going on.

Fortunately, Lysander didn't ask anything.

...

At eight o'clock sharp, Thalassa arrived at Fortune Restaurant.

As soon as she stepped in, a waiter greeted her, politely asking, "How many in your party, miss?"

"I am meeting someone named Callum Gordon." Thalassa started, but the waiter gestured for her to follow him before she could finish.

Surprised, Thalassa followed him to a private dining room, where Callum was already seated, sipping water.
