The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 1538

Before heading out to her job, Thalassa had one task for Astrid: keep an eye on the online dating platform for any interest in Dr. Funke's profile, to see if anyone wanted to meet him in person.

Thalassa had promised Dr. Funke she'd find him a match, no matter what.

Lately, she had introduced Dr. Funke to quite a few ladies, but none seemed to click with him.

Most of the meet-ups didn’t go beyond the first date.

There was only one exception, who had actually agreed to have lunch with him the day after their first meet-up. But, it ended there, with just one meal shared between them. The deal-breaker? She couldn’t handle Dr. Funke’s quirky personality and his penchant for being enigmatic in everything he did. She chose to step back from pursuing anything further with Dr. Funke.

After several failed attempts, Thalassa was back on the hunt for Dr. Funke’s potential match.

Since her new job kept her busy, she enlisted her aunt Astrid’s help to monitor the dating site.

It was also a way to keep Astrid occupied, preventing her from feeling lonely and idle at home.

Spotting a profile picture of a woman who seemed to be Dr. Funke's type, Thalassa realized she might need to take a day off work to assist Dr. Funke with this potential date.

Bridget returned to Hertha’s place with her two kids and a young woman in tow.

Upon entering, they found Hertha casually sitting at the dining table, engrossed in her smartphone, while the sound of dishes being washed echoed from the kitchen.

“Mommy!” Julian’s eyes lit up at the sight of Hertha, and he bolted towards her.

“Mommy!” Helena followed, her tiny legs wobbly and unsteady, making one worry she might fall.

Before Bridget could respond, Helena’s lively voice chimed in, “We saw Aunt Thalassa in the elevator, with a man…”

Oh no! They did meet! Hertha felt a chill run down her spine. Did Alaric see Julian and Helena? Did he suspect anything?

Hertha looked at Bridget, fear evident in her eyes.

Bridget, unsettled by Hertha’s gaze, nervously said, “Ms. Kensington, is there a problem? We were waiting for the elevator on the 10th floor when the doors opened, and I saw Ms. Everhart with a man inside. But we didn’t get in, the doors closed quickly, and they went down. We didn’t even get a chance to say hi…”

No greeting?

Well, that’s a relief!

Hertha’s anxious heart finally settled upon hearing Bridget’s explanation.
