The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)

Chatper 945

Chapter 945

Thalassa couldn’t help but let out a chuckle as she gently pinched Elowen’s chubby cheeks, “Mommy will be back

soon, don’t worry.”

“Ms. Everhart, let me drive you,” Fitch offered politely as he stepped forward.

“No need, you stay and look after the kids. The chauffeur can take me,” Thalassa replied.

“The chauffeur took Lysander to the airport today; he’s on a business trip,” Fitch informed her.

Lysander was on a business trip?

Thalassa didn’t know a thing about it. A self-mocking smile curled at the edge of her lips. She wasn’t anyone of

importance to Lysander; why would he inform her of his whereabouts?

What did it matter if he was on a trip? Was there a need to tell her?

She didn’t even have the right to know.

“What about the children?” Thalassa was uneasy.

“There are plenty of staff in the house, so they’ll be fine,” Fitch assured her.

“Alright then,” Thalassa conceded to Fitch’s offer. If she had to make her own way, it would take a long time, and

she had just started to regain some strength; her body was still weak and wouldn’t hold up for long walks.

“Mommy, come back soon, we’ll be waiting,” a tender little voice called out.

Thalassa turned back and found the four little ones standing in a line at the entrance, their eyes filled with

anticipation, gazing at her.

Seeing this, Thalassa felt a poignant blend of sorrow and compassion.

Back when she and Evelyn were taking care of the children, they never had such anxious looks in their eyes. Even if

she had to be away for a couple of days, the children never showed such fear.

Living with Lysander, they had all the comforts and staff to look after them, yet they felt a profound lack of security.

Their fearful, anxious eyes nearly broke Thalassa’s heart.

Swallowing the lump in her throat, Thalassa smiled at them, “Okay, Mommy will be back as soon as possible. Go

inside and play.” With that, she and Fitch headed towards the car.

The kids didn’t turn back into the house but continued to stand there, small faces filled with longing and reluctance,

watching as their mother got into the car.

As Fitch started the engine, Thalassa looked back through the rear glass to see the children still standing at the

door, watching her car drive away.

A tear pricked at the corner of her eye as she felt, more than ever, that the children were not as happy as they

used to be when they were by her side.

The once lively and cheerful little ones now had fear in their eyes.

Security wasn’t something that could be provided by comfortable living conditions alone; it needed to be nurtured

with sufficient love.

It wasn’t until Thalassa’s car vanished from sight that the four little ones looked at each other, disheartened, and

slowly walked back inside.
