The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 454

Chapter 454 

Thalassa tumed at the sound of the voice to see a well-kept woman of about fifty. Her skin was pale and smooth, with barely a wrinkle to be seen. 

But time had a way of marking us all. No matter how well someone maintained their skin, the years would always leave their trace. 

It was apparent from her eyes and demeanor that she was a woman of a certain age. 

She was dressed in a flowing skirt, a stylish blouse with a floral collar, a wristwatch, pearl earrings, and a platinum necklace, and her hair was styled in loose waves. She radiated an air of aristocracy. 

Thalassa was certain she didn’t know this woman. She politely inquired, “Hello, how may I assist you?” 

The woman seated herself directly across from Thalassa. It was obvious that her gaze was filled with prejudice and dissatisfaction. “I’ll cut to the chase. I am Amelia Sinclair, Leopold’s mother,” 

Thalassa’s eyes widened slightly, and she immediately greeted her respectfully. “Ah, Amelia. Nice to meet you.” 

“You’re quite attractive. You’re certainly capable of ensnaring men.” Amelia crossed her arms as she scrutinized Thalassa with her malicious gaze. 

Thalassa was patient and polite, but Amelia left her feeling uncomfortable. 

She realized that Amelia’s visit wasn’t going to be pleasant. 

She laughed lightly and responded, “Amelia, you are still quite the beauty. I wonder how many hearts you’ve managed to captivate.” 

Amelia’s face darkened at Thalassa, and she huffed. “You haven’t even stepped foot into the Sinclair family, and already you’re so sharp-tongued. Thalassa, I’ll make it clear. I don’t like you. I hope you can keep your distance from my son.” 

Thalassa’s knuckles whitened where her hand rested on her lap. She met Amelia’s gaze unflinchingly. “Amelia, while you warn me, perhaps you should also keep your son in check and stop him from pursuing me. I have absolutely no intentions towards him. I just want to live a peaceful life without any disturbances.” 

Amelia’s face turned even more sour, and her breathing became irregular. She leaned forward in her seat as her eyes narrowed on Thalassa. “If you weren’t leading him on, would he be so devoted to you?! only have one son. He’s such a promising young man, and because of you, he’s emotionally drained and depressed. Not too long ago, he almost lost his life because of you. Can’t you just let him go?” 

In her harsh words, Amelia’s deep love and fear for her son were evident. 

Though Thalassa was taken aback, she felt sympathy.
