The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 617

Chapter 617 

Thalassa threw a puzzled glance at Ethan. “Because of what happened yesterday?” 

Yesterday, both Betty and Anna put her into quite a pickle. 

No wonder Betty’s face clouded over when she heard what Ethan said. 

Thalassa had clearly explained to Ethan yesterday that, as a newbie at work, it was normal to get a hard time from the longer-serving employees. She could handle it. 

So why did Ethan fire Anna? 

“Thalassa, you really are a pushover. Anna spilled coffee on you yesterday, and you didn’t even raise your voice?” Ethan cast a scrutinizing gaze on her. 

Thalassa blinked. Was it because of the coffee incident with Anna? 

But Ethan wasn’t there at the time, so how did he know? 

Suddenly, Thalassa remembered that she had mentioned this to Lysander yesterday. 

Did Lysander get Anna fired? 

Would he bother with such trivial matters? 

Was he meddling because of her? 

Thalassa couldn’t believe it. “Mr. Ethan, you wouldn’t happen to have a habit of spying on the secretary’s office, would you? Do you know everything that happens there?” 

She still couldn’t believe that Lysander had a hand in this. 

Caught off guard by her question, Ethan chuckled. “I couldn’t care less about your wardrobe changes in the office. Don’t make me out to be some kind of creep.” 

“Then how…” 

“Lysander called me.” 

All of Thalassa’s questions got stuck in her throat. 

Even though she didn’t want to believe Ethan, she had to. 

Lysander had actually gotten Anna fired over a spilled cup of coffee. 

Was Lysander protecting her? 

Wasn’t he supposed to despise her and use her as his punching bag? 

A mix of emotions welled up in Thalassa. Being protected silently by someone was undoubtedly a blessing. But when that someone was Lysander, it left her feeling all over the place. 

She couldn’t figure out what Lysander was up to. 

“Snap out of it and get back to work. In the end, it all comes down to your performance.” Ethan saw Thalassa’s stunned expression and pointed her towards the door. 

Thalassa came back to her senses, picked up another set of files from the desk, and left the office. 

Back in the secretarial office, she noticed that Betty had engrossed herself in work.
