The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

Chapter 1282
Before long, the boat docked at the shore.
With a gentle hand, Thalassa helped Evelyn up onto the land. They needed a
ride back to the hotel.
Lysander hailed a cab, and soon the group of four were on their way back to the
hotel.
Callum, who was nursing a twisted ankle, lagged behind.
With concern etched on her face, Thalassa quickly escorted Evelyn back to their
room.
Lysander followed suit. Turning around, Thalassa found his towering frame
beside her. She took a deep breath and tried to shake off the heaviness in her
chest.
“Mom's and my clothes are all in this room,” she said to Lysander. “Did you bring
any clothes with you? If not, you might soaked through.”
I want to hit up the mall for a new outfit. Yours are

of relief and helped Evelyn settle back down.
“I'll grab the clothes. You should take a warm shower first.” Thalassa rummaged
through their suitcase-it was packed with a few changes of clothes for the trip.
She handed a set to Evelyn and waited outside while her mother showered,
After a while, Evelyn emerged, and it was Thalassa’s turn.
Exiting the steamy bathroom, Thalassa found Evelyn sitting on the bed, her eyes
glazed over, lost in thought, devoid of their usual spark.
Thalassa dreaded seeing her mother like this. She sat beside her and asked
softly, “Mom, what's on your mind?”
Evelyn snapped back to reality and glanced at Thalassa. “I'm thinking about
Lysander.”
Thalassa waited for her to continue.
“Why would someone of his stature leap into the water to save me? He got
completely drenched. He must have done it for you. He's kind to those around
you, yet he won't marry you.”
The thought weighed heavily on Evelyn's heart.
Thalassa felt a pang in her chest at her mother’s words, her gaze dropping
slightly.
Should she tell her mother that Lysander had hesitated for a long time before
deciding to save her? That he only jumped in when he saw her sinking and
couldn’t bear it any longer? Would that disappoint her?
Besides, Thalassa had stopped fretting over whether Lysander would marry her.
She had given up on that a long time ago.
And now, even if Lysander wanted to marry her, she wouldn't accept.
“Mom, don’t overthink it. If you're tired, why not take a nap?” Thalassa
suggested.
Evelyn looked at the bed where she had sat in her wet clothes, dampening the
sheets.
