The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 1069
Lysander’s icy gaze blazed with a crimson fury, his cheeks twitching slightly as he struggled to contain his anger. The woman
before him had repeatedly provoked him and tested his patience to the brink of madness.
He could end it all with the truth and put an end to the torment.
Yet, as he watched her defiant agony, his heart ached even more than hers.
“Bruce locked you up in that room, didn’t he? Did he hand you over to Callum? How much did Callum pay him? What exactly
happened between you two in that room?” Lysander’s voice was strained. His temples throbbed with suppressed rage as he
gave her one last chance to come clean.
Thalassa’s heart clenched in disbelief, “Is that what you think of me? That I could be sold and bought, that I’d casually sleep with
another man? So, how low am I to you.”
Her voice was laced with self-mockery. Although her chin and heart were all aching with a suffocating pain, she managed a bitter
smile.
“If that’s not the case, then what are you hiding?” Lysander ground his teeth, pressing her for an answer.
“I told you. It was to protect Bruce, my father.” Thalassa clung to her reason.
Bruce had threatened her before he left. If she exposed him, he would release the video of him harming her mother. If she turned
on Bruce, her mother’s dignity would be at risk, and she might not survive the scandal.
She couldn’t take that risk.
Lysander’s hawk-like eyes bore into her, his facial muscles taut with anger. Seeing Thalassa’s resigned defiance, his
disappointment amplified.
His next words were like a spear to her heart.
“Is it Callum’s child?” Lysander barely managed to get the words out, his breathing ragged with fury and disbelief.
The barrage of questions he had fired at her was meant to afford her the chance to refute his suspicions.

But her reactions seemed to confirm them one by one!
That night, she had lied about going to see her mother, but she was actually meeting Callum. Then she returned and popped
three emergency contraception pills. But they didn’t work, and that child had been conceived that very night.
Otherwise, why would she, the victim of an abduction, go out of her way to cover for her captor, to protect her rendezvous with
Callum?

And then, she fled with Callum and the four kids in tow
Wasn’t in all because Callum was the father of the child she was carrying?
Hearing Lysander’s accusation. Thalassa’s puis constricted sharply
She stared at his handsome face now tight with tension His eyes were terrifying Suddenly, he seemed like a stranger to her as
she had never truly known him, as though they were just passersby in each other’s lives
The more she looked, the more she felt a bitte aughter rising within her indeed, she had never penetrated his veneer, so how
could she claims to truly know him?
He actually suspected that the child she was carrying was Callum’s!
By thinking so, he believed she had been intimate with Callum!
So in his eyes, she truly a cheap and easy woman
“What else do you want me to say when you won’t believe the truth?” Thalassa’s voice was calm, resonating with the profound
reallization that there was nothing more painful than a heart that had given up hope

The more she looked, the more she felt a bitter laughter rising within her. Indeed, she had never penetrated his veneer, so how
could she claim to truly know him?
