The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 867

Chapter 867 

Thalassa lowered her head in silence, making her way towards the restroom. 

Just as she rounded the corner, a woman stepped out, bumping into her shoulder. 

“Watch where you’re going!” The woman shrieked, her tone filled with aggression. 

“Actually, you bumped into me…” Thalassa responded, her voice level and factual. 

The woman had already been exiting the restroom as Thalassa was entering, so logically speaking, it was the woman who had bumped into Thalassa. Yet, she had the audacity to play the victim! 

It wasn’t Thalassa’s fault, so she had no reason to apologize! 

With a cold gaze, she lifted her head, ready to reason with the woman in front of her. 

Upon seeing the woman’s face, Thalassa paused. 

It was Bruce’s daughter, Susan! 

She was dressed in a regal purple evening gown with a V–neck design that accentuated her figure, emphasizing her slender 

waistline. 

Her hair was swept up, revealing her delicate neck. Her makeup was meticulously done. It was clear she had put great effort into her appearance. 

Why was Susan here? 

“Thalassa, it’s you!” Susan’s gaze swept over her, her tone haughty. 

Thalassa was dressed in a simple white evening gown, her face was lightly made up, yet her bright eyes and radiant smile gave off an innocent yet alluring aura. 

In contrast to Susan’s elaborate get up, Thalassa seemed even more radiant! 

A wave of jealousy surged in Susan’s heart, but she remembered she was here for the party, not to pick a fight with Thalassa. 

Not to mention, now was not the time to be enemies with Thalassa. 

Feigning surprise, Susan’s angry expression quickly turned into a smile. She softened her tone, “I’m sorry. I thought it was someone else, so I was a bit harsh. Don’t take it to heart, okay? You’re right, I bumped into you. My apologies.” 

Thalassa didn’t want to deal with her, so she gave Susan a brief glance before making her way into the restroom. 

Susan shot a venomous glare at Thalassa’s retreating figure before making her way out in her high heels. 

Thalassa had initially come to the restroom to calm herself down. She washed her hands and lightly patted her cheeks in front of the mirror, trying to perk herself up. 

She was at the charity dinner for work, to help Ethan keep track of possible businessmen partners. She had to avoid overthinking. After gathering her thoughts, Thalassa made her way back to the banquet. 

Ethan was engaged in conversation with a few businessmen, and it didn’t seem like he needed her assistance, so Thalassa grabbed a plate and headed towards the buffet to get some desserts, planning to find a quiet corner to indulge herself.
