Of the Emily James stories I have ever read, perhaps the most impressive one is The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen). The story is too good, leaving me with many doubts. Currently, the manga has been translated to Chapter 202. Let's read the author's The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) Emily James story right here.
Chapter 202
Thalassa’s words reached the tip of her tongue, but suddenly she paused, unable to continue.
What’s the point in telling him all this?
She had been forced into losing her virginity and ended up pregnant because of it.
For the past five years, she was busy taking care of her child, with absolutely no time or energy to date.
She already had four kids, which was more than enough for her.
Did she really need to bring him up to speed with all this?
Over the years, all her thoughts had been on her kids, with no time to dwell on the past.
She no longer gave a damn about whether he betrayed her or not.
To Thalassa, Leopold was just a passerby in her life, with no connection left now.
Seeing her stop mid–sentence, Leopold urgently urged her, “Why? Tell me.”
Thalassa took a deep breath, not wanting to continue. She averted her gaze, whispering, “Just drop it, don’t waste your time on me anymore. We broke up five years ago, just stop trying to find me.”
He cheated, and that’s that, no excuses needed.
Besides, she’s now a mother of four. There’s no room for Leopold in her life.
It’s better to cut him off for good, letting him start anew, than to give him false hope and keep him waiting.
Waiting for something that’s never going to happen was just wasting prime years.
With that, she turned and headed towards the staircase, not looking back.
Leopold didn’t go after her. He watched her retreating figure with loss, his hopes crushed once again.
Seeing her resolute figure, his heart ached even more. He gritted his teeth and said, “Thalassa, I won’t give up! You’re my first love and the one I’ll love for life. I won’t ever give up on you!”
By now, Thalassa had turned the corner, out of Leopold’s sight downstairs.
There’s plenty of time. One day, he will make Thalassa face her feelings and be with him again.
At the playground in the neighborhood.
Elowen and Sophia were having fun on the slide.
Elowen suddenly tugged at Evelyn’s hand, saying, “Mom’s back, let’s go home.”
Curious, Evelyn asked, “How do you know Mom’s back?”
Elowen replied, “I saw her in a black car. A very handsome man was dropping her off.” Elowen’s voice was soft and clear and very sincere.
Evelyn heard every word clearly.
Thalassa was in a black car, dropped off by a very handsome man.
Elowen didn’t just call anyone handsome. Only really good–looking guys, like Atticus and Dorian, would earn that praise.
