The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

Chapter 1340
Lysander navigated the streets with a sense of grim determination, his car cutting
through the city like a silent specter. The glove compartment held his birth
certificate, a symbol of the commitment he had declared the night before. He had
vowed to marry Thalassa, and today was the day for him to make good on that
promise.
Marrying Thalassa had always been in Lysander’s plans, but life had thrown a
wrench into the works. Leopold's arrival had shattered any illusions by revealing
the truth-that Thalassa’s heart belonged to another.
The specter of his father’s fate loomed over him; a man who had met a tragic end
for marrying a woman in love with someone else. His grandfather had always
warned him not to follow in his father’s footsteps, to stay lucid. He could indulge
in the physical allure of Thalassa but should never take her seriously.
To marry her would be a dangerous move. It would transform him into a man like
his father, desperate to win her love.
Hatred also brewed within Lysander for Bruce, the culprit of his parents’ downfall.
Bruce had meddled in their marriage, deceived his mother and convinced her to
elope with him-a man so vile that every fiber of Lysander’s being recoiled in
disgust.
By extension, Lysander had once resented Thalassa, for she carried the blood of
that despicable man. Whenever Lysander felt a softening towards her, the
thought of her lineage would turn his heart to ice..
He hated his own inability to erase her from his life for good. Out of sight, out of
mind would be the greatest kindness he could afford himself, but it was an
impossible feat.
The mere thought of her vanishing from his life, of Thalassa laughing and living
happily with another man, left him breathless with a suffocating sense of loss.
So, even though she was Bruce's daughter, even though her heart sheltered
Leopold, ever though her actions were reminiscent of her mother Belinda’s
betrayal, he could not let go of her.
He had punished her with extreme measures, brought her to the brink of despair,
yet he could not let go.
Until the accident with the rigging equipment that nearly crushed him, Lysander
thought Thalassa wanted him dead so she could be free.
The pain in his heart was sharper than his rage. It was then that he truly
understood his father’s feelings. Loving a woman so deeply that the prospect of
death at her hands was preferable to living without her.
