The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 1410

When Hertha dropped that bombshell, Thalassa's grip on the steering wheel tightened so sharply it might have squeaked.

She spared a quick glance at Hertha, who was lounging in the passenger seat, and a wry smile played at the corners of her mouth. "What's wrong with me? My kids have a dad now. Honestly, that's not so bad."

Hertha and Thalassa were the best of friends, who had weathered storms together. There were hardly any secrets between them.

Which is why they spoke so freely, without holding back.

And that’s why Hertha didn't hesitate to sprinkle a little salt on Thalassa's wounds.

"Yeah, your kids have a dad, but are you any happier now than when you were flying solo? Let's not even start on whether the kids are happier. What about you? Are you happy?"

Hertha's big, round eyes fixed on Thalassa with concern.

Once upon a time, when Thalassa was a single mom, juggling four kids and as many jobs, life was like spinning plates on sticks. But in that bustling household, laughter was the soundtrack to their lives, with the kids' antics as the main event.

Since discovering Lysander was the father of her children, Thalassa's days had become a tightrope of tension and fear. She had tried to keep the kids under wraps, always dreading the day Lysander would discover their existence and take them away.

But her worst fears had come true. Lysander had found out and, just as she had dreaded, claimed the children.

Thalassa went from being rich in love to the poorest soul around overnight.

Losing her children was like losing the whole world.

Hertha could now empathize with that pain.
