The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 1169

Chapter 1169 

“Mom, how’d you know those two wore each other out last night?” Angelina asked with curiosity. 

Being a woman of the world herself and a mother of a grown son, she could read between the lines of Beatrice’s insinuation, that the young lovebirds was reveling in passion the night before. 

“Of course I know,” Beatrice replied, her smile was widening, and there was a twinkle of knowing mischief in her eyes. “I personally prepared the soup they had. And I even delivered them milk later.” 

Angelina was astonished. 

– 

Without further question, she knew there was something up with the milk – they were likely the kind that made the young ones restless and unable to keep their hands off each . other. 

Seeing Angelina’s gobsmacked expression, Beatrice simply chuckled and returned to her breakfast without another word. I 

After they finished eating, Remington reached out his hand to Beatrice, suggesting, “Let’s take a stroll in the garden to work off some of that breakfast.” 

Beatrice placed her hand in his, and together, supporting one another, they left the dining room for a walk in the garden. 

Left alone at the table, Angelina felt a cloud of gloom overshadow her mood instead of joy. 

She was just poking at her food when her phone buzzed – it was a call from Georgia Reed’s mother, Juliet. 

Angelina hurriedly answered. 

After a bit of small talk, Juliet got straight to the point, “My husband says that if Alaric marries Georgia, the Reeds will back him all the way. We’ll help him rise in the Falconers, and eventually, he’ll be at the helm. Look at Jeremiah Falconer now – he’s at his peak and having so many shareholders in his pocket. If Alaric doesn’t step up soon, he’ll miss his chance.” 

Angelina’s heart sank. She was already worried, and Juliet’s words only added to her anxiety. 

Jeremiah, Alaric’s cousin, was indeed way more promising than Alaric, and Remington seemed inclined to pass the CEO baton to him. 

Despite appearing hands-off, the old man still held the ultimate decision-making power. He cared only for who could keep the company reins tight and profitable.

With Jeremiah about to tie the knot with a Sutther heiress and gain Suttners’ backing, he was set to be the victor. 

Then Alaric would always be one step behind and never able to turn the tables. 

If they didn’t seize the current opportunity, Alaric’s future would be even bleaker. 

“Juliet, don’t you worry. Alaric is absolutely set on marrying Georgia. She’s such a catch- beautiful and sweet. It’s Alaric’s good fortune to have her,” Angelina assured Georgia’s 

mother with a smile. 

“Well then, let’s set a date for their engagement ceremony and get the wedding plans rolling to bolster Alaric’s position sooner rather than later,” Juliet pressed, her eagerness fueled by her lovely daughter’s affection for Alaric. 

“I’ll talk to Alaric and get back to you ASAP. You have my word,” Angelina promised. 

After some more pleasantries, they ended the call.
