The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 1254

Thalassa's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Lysander. His accusation was clear: he believed she had seen him coming and had deliberately manipulated the stage prop to hit him.

Her eagerness to explain wilted under the weight of his suspicion. The disappointment was a heavy, suffocating presence in her chest.

She met his deep gaze, her brows furrowing slightly as she said, "I was behind the curtain. I couldn't see anything in the front and I had no idea who’s coming."

How could she have known he was there if she couldn't see?

Lysander's gaze was intense and unwavering, his eyes exerting an immense pressure.

The atmosphere around Thalassa grew tense, the air heavy with unspoken words.

Susan quickly interjected, "Mr. Sinclair, I'm just relieved you're alright. Even with my own injuries, knowing you're safe makes it all bearable."

It was only then that everyone noticed Susan was hurt.

Zane hurried over to check on Susan's back, which was bleeding profusely.

With concern, Zane addressed Lysander, "Mr. Sinclair, Susan's injury looks pretty bad. Can we get her to the hospital first?"

Only then did Lysander's piercing stare break away from Thalassa. His voice was cool and detached, "Go ahead."

"Alright, I'll have the staff take her now," Zane said, helping Susan towards the exit.

As Susan left, she glanced back at Lysander and Thalassa.

Thalassa stood her ground, her face pale, the very picture of someone wronged but without the means to defend herself.

Lysander exuded a chilly aura, his eyes still fixed on Thalassa with evident suspicion and mistrust.
