The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chapter 605
“Mr. Sinclair, you’re back,” Faye greeted.
Lysander ignored her, heading for the couch, and asked Zephyr, “Where are the kids?”
“I had the servants take them to my study to play,” Zephyr replied, his milky eyes shifting from Lysander to Thalassa standing
behind him. His previously calm expression darkened instantly.
“I wouldn’t have known you had four children if you hadn’t bought that kindergarten out of the blue, Lysander. You didn’t even
bother to tell us. You weren’t like this before. You used to care about how Grandma and I felt. Is it because of this woman?”
Zephyr’s tone was serious, his gaze fierce and filled with annoyance, casting a stern glance at Thalassa behind Lysander.
Hearing such words, Thalassa felt uneasy.
It was clear that Zephyr had a bias against her.
Whatever Lysander chose to do, it was entirely his decision. What did it have to do with her?
She didn’t have the power to influence Lysander’s decisions.
Just as Thalassa was wrestling with her feelings, a warm hand suddenly held hers.
The hand was rough and warm, with calloused fingers.
Thalassa’s heart fluttered as she looked up into Lysander’s deep eyes.
He held her hand, pulling her close to his side, meeting Zephyr’s gaze. “Since you’ve done your research, you should know that
she is the mother of the children. They’ve grown to the age of four under her care alone, without any help from the Sinclair
family.”
Lysander’s voice was low and commanding.
And at that moment, it felt incredibly warm.
Thalassa’s eyes flickered, looking at Lysander’s profile.
His words brought tears to her eyes.

He had never acknowledged her efforts towards the children before, yet, he was fully aware of it.
But now, he was defending her in front of Zephyr.
That unexpected warmth hit her hard, and Thalassa found herself feeling emotional.
Zephyr took a deep breath, his hawk-like eyes looking coldly at Thalassa. “Lysander was injured in some combat and fell from a
helicopter back then. How convenient that you were there in the locked woodshed!”
Zephyr was questioning Thalassa, suspecting her ulterior motives.
Earlier, Faye had told Zephyr about what happened five years prior, adding fuel to the fire by claiming that Lysander had been
celibate and had rejected all the women Zephyr had arranged for him because he was still thinking of Thalassa.
Lysander initially thought Thalassa was dead and compensated her family with millions of dollars.
Later, Thalassa reappeared, bringing along four kids, hence binding her to Lysander for a lifetime.
It was a messy entanglement that couldn’t be cut loose because there were children binding them together.
Zephyr immediately concluded that all of it was a ploy by Thalassa. It was all just to marry Lysander, to become Mrs. Sinclair,
and to bask in wealth and glory.
She used the children as a bargaining chip, giving Lysander no reason to leave her.
That woman’s schemes ran deep!
Zephyr didn’t believe that a woman who had embezzled a billion and run away could have any good intentions.
Thalassa felt wronged, her heart sinking.
Just as she was about to speak, Lysander’s voice rang out, “I was the one who fell into the woodshed. Luckily, she was there.
Otherwise, let alone the children, I wouldn’t have survived. Let’s be fair, Grandfather. Don’t twist everything with your bias.”
Lysander was being factual.
Although Thalassa was Bruce’s daughter, and he despised her, he couldn’t falsely accuse her of the events of five years prior.

You Zephyr was so angry that his beard trembled.
