The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 588

Leopold held his knife and fork, his breath uneven as he stared down at the steak in front of him, untouched.

His heart was in pain, a tempest of anguish swirling inside him.

"Leopold, what's wrong? You don't look well. Do you need to go to the hospital?" Debby, seeing his pale complexion, was filled with concern.

Leopold put his cutlery down. The sound of the silverware clinking against the wooden table was more profound than it should have been.

"I'm not hungry. I'm leaving." His voice was flat, eyes hollow. He stood up abruptly and left.

His sudden outburst took Debby aback. "Leopold, wait for me. If you're not feeling well, let me accompany you to the hospital."

She regretted being impatient for deliberately acting coy to make him show his affection. They had only met at a cocktail party the day before, and after she had made the first move, Leopold seemed to have been somewhat interested. She had thought they were already on the verge of becoming a couple.

Leopold ignored Debby, and his amber eyes fixed on Thalassa, who was sitting across the room. His gaze was intense, full of pain and anger.

Thalassa never looked up, even when Leopold walked past her, leaving a trail of cold wind that brushed against her skin.

“Leopold, wait for me!” Debby's frantic voice echoed behind him.

As their footsteps faded, Thalassa's heart remained heavy. She distractedly picked up a piece of steak.

Her wrist suddenly was gripped tightly.

"Are you trying to get yourself killed?"
