The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 842

Chapter 842 

Nursing her thumb, silent tears started to cascade down her cheeks

You’re awake.” Lysander’s voice, deep and somber, echoed through the darkness

Thalassa shivered. She closed her eyes tightly, trying to force back the tears. But the intense sensation of sourness in her throat was 

uncontrollable

Why did he fall from the building?she managed to ask Lysander, her voice trembling

The room fell silent, the air filled with a chilling stillness

Just as Thalassa thought she wouldn’t get an answer, Lysander spoke up, No one expected it. He jumped down himself” 

No one expected him to do this, and hence, nobody was prepared to stop him

He jumped off himself

Why

Thalassa’s heart clenched, her body curling tighter

Lysander sat at the edge of the bed, watching her. She was facing away from him, her body curled up into a ball. She didn’t respond to 

his words. But under the moonlight, he could see the glitter of tears in her eyes

He knew that she was in pain. She never forgot about Leopold, so his death brought her immense sorrow

Lysander’s handsome face was taut. He mused, and didn’t say a word

After a long silence, Thalassa found the courage to voice her worries, How is he now?” 

He is in the morgue and undergoing a postmortem makeover,Lysander’s voice was solemn while answering her question

Thalassa’s heart clenched again, her thumb almost bitten through by her own teeth

You should get up and eat something. You’ve been asleep for six hours,Lysander said as he switched on the light

The bright, white light instantly illuminated the whole room

Thalassa shut her eyes against the glaring light. Before she could adjust to the sudden brightness, Lysander scooped her up from the bed

Thalassa’s entire body was soft, limp and powerless. She was picked up by Lysander and helped to sit at the head of the bed

A tray had already been prepared on the bedside table. On it was a bowl of soup and an almond pudding, which were both mild dishes. Lysander tucked away the stray hair from her forehead, revealing her pale face; her lips were devoid of color

Lysander’s deep eyes flickered as he scooped up soup and brought it to her lips

Thalassa turned away, not wanting to eat

She had no appetite. Her taste buds were numb from the chilling sorrow. She didn’t have the heart to eat anything

Lysander’s outstretched spoon hung in midair as his expression turned grim, Eat up!” 

Thalassa felt a wave of inner pain. She flinched and looked away from him

I don’t want to eat, she said without any energy
