The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 1641

Emmeline clung tighter to Spencer's arm, snuggling closer to him, and with a smile, she said to Kimberly, "Yeah, after dinner, we're planning to catch a movie."

"Oh, is that so? I won't keep you then. You must come over for dinner sometime," Kimberly replied.

"Sure, we'd love to," Spencer politely responded, leading Emmeline away.

Emmeline rested her head on Spencer's arm, feeling incredibly sweet. Before visiting Hertha's place, she had felt a certain distance between her and Spencer. Despite their relationship and his proposal, Emmeline couldn't shake off the feeling that she couldn't quite reach his heart.

He was gentle with her, but something seemed to be missing.

Now, however, that distance had vanished. Spencer seemed more considerate of her feelings.

He kept her words close to his heart and prioritized her needs over appeasing others, refusing others for her sake. This made Emmeline incredibly happy and touched.

Her heart felt as sweet as if it was coated in honey.

After Spencer and Emmeline left, Kimberly's expression instantly fell. She turned to Hertha with a scolding look, "Sit down and tell me, who exactly is that man?"

Hertha meekly walked over and sat down on the sofa, sitting upright as if facing judgment, "He's just a boyfriend I recently met. We'll be breaking up in a few days."

She dared not raise her parents' hopes, knowing well that a future with Alaric was impossible.

"What? Just met and breaking up in a few days? What are you even saying? When did you become so casual? Relationships aren't something to be taken lightly," Kimberly burst out, visibly upset.
