The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 1238

"What the hell have you two done right in front of me?" Hertha couldn't take it anymore. She pointed an accusing finger at Alaric, her breath heavy with fury as she spoke, her face flushed with anger.

Alaric, still in a daze, was jolted awake by Hertha's voice. He blinked the sleep from his eyes and looked at Hertha, who sat across from him on the other bed, her face twisted in rage.

Then his gaze fell on Georgia, who lay beside him. His eyes snapped open as he took in the situation, inspecting himself before looking back at Georgia.

Realization dawned in his smoldering eyes as he saw the state he and Georgia were in, and they filled with disbelief.

What had happened? Last night, he was sure he had been holding Hertha.

Georgia woke up too, sitting up abruptly as the covers slid off her. She scrambled to pull them back, covering herself as she hurriedly tried to explain to Alaric, "Alaric, you were drunk last night. I don't blame you. We're engaged, after all. We were bound to become husband and wife eventually."

Her words confirmed what had happened between Alaric and her.

Alaric's expression darkened with incredulity and denial as he looked from Georgia to Hertha.

He definitely had too much to drink last night, but he remembered, albeit hazily, that it was Hertha he had been with.

Could he have been mistaken?

Hertha also caught the implication of Georgia's words. They had slept together, and right beside her!

Hertha had been blackout drunk last night, with no memory of what had transpired.

All she knew was the scene that greeted her this morning.
