The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 1495

Wasn't this exactly what she had always wanted?

Thalassa's breath grew heavy, her heart constricted with a pain she couldn't hide. She averted her gaze, continuing to peel the shrimp in her hands, trying her hardest not to look at Lysander and Rosalind.

"Rosalind, tone it down, will you? We're in public. When you two get home, you can show affection to your fiancé however you want. We've got a whole crowd here and dinner hasn't even started. Don't fill up on your lovey-dovey nonsense before we've even eaten." Reginald joked, seemingly advising Rosalind to keep it low-key, but to Thalassa, it felt like a severe blow.

Lysander was Rosalind's fiancé?

The thought pierced Thalassa's already aching heart sharply.

Rosalind and Lysander were engaged?

Such big news, and Joshua hadn’t told her. And he wanted to make up for neglecting her? It was all lies.

Whenever she and Rosalind had conflicts, Joshua was always secretly supporting Rosalind, wasn’t he? Even arranging her children's father to be engaged to Rosalind.

Thalassa felt like a clown, trampled into the mud over and over again, a spectacle for others' amusement.

The shrimp in her hand suddenly felt unbearably heavy; something so light now seemed impossible to hold.

"Bro, focus on your meal. No one asked you listen to us," Rosalind playfully scolded Reginald, even putting a piece of steak into his bowl as if to quiet him, yet her face was alight with joy at his teasing.

"Getting shy over this? What will you do on your wedding night, hide under the bed out of embarrassment?" Reginald teased Rosalind further.
