The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 1771

Excited, she rushed to Royal Estates, eager to clear the air with Lysander, to confess her misunderstanding. But what she found was Rosalind, fresh from a steamy shower, clad in a sultry nightgown, inviting Lysander to retire for the evening. Far from declining, Lysander, with a casual arm around Rosalind, accompanied her into the elevator, heading to the second floor to unwind. In that moment, Thalassa felt a sharp sting of jealousy and turned to leave, her heart heavy.

She had assumed, since Rosalind's move to Royal Estates, that she and Lysander were sharing more than just space—that their relationship had crossed into intimacy. Imagine her surprise when she discovered that Lysander and Rosalind weren't even roommates! To Thalassa, this revelation was nothing short of a delightful shock.

"So, you saw us together in the elevator," Lysander admitted without reservation, laying bare the facts. Thalassa's eyes widened in disbelief. "That was intentional?"

Indeed, it was. He had deliberately let her witness his cozy moment with Rosalind, aiming to stir her emotions. It turned out, he had been orchestrating her reactions all along, setting the stage for her to make a dramatic entrance and claim him as hers. He was still Lysander, the man who seemed to hold the world in the palm of his hand.

She believed she had come to him after a fierce internal battle, only to realize it had all been part of Lysander's grand design. Lysander beckoned her closer with a wave of his hand, his gaze both tender and commanding, impossible to resist.

Thalassa, initially rising from the bed, found herself drawn back under his spell, crawling back to his side, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. "What do you want?"

With a flirtatious lift of her chin, Lysander locked eyes with her, his intent clear as he probed, "So, it's alright for you to flirt with Callum, but I can't have my moments with other women?"
