The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 423

Chapter 423 

Leopold grabbed her hand, holding it firmly. He placed a bracelet on her wrist, his voice adamant, “Put this on. It’s a gift. Don’t take it off.” 

Not only was Leopold holding her hand, but he was also holding the bracelet on her wrist, preventing her from removing it. 

The gesture seemed intimate, like a couple sharing a tender moment. 

Thalassa was about to object when there was a sudden flash of light. She looked up to see a woman with a smartphone pointed at them. 

The woman, clad in glittering designer outfits, had just snapped a picture of them before lowering her phone. It was Charlotte! 

Thalassa immediately stood up and walked towards Charlotte, saying sternly, “Delete the picture!” 

Charlotte hid her phone behind her, feigning ignorance, “What picture? I don’t know what you’re talking about.” 

Thalassa tried to grab the phone, “The picture you just took of us, delete it!” 

Charlotte scoffed and dodged Thalassa, “You’re desperate, trying to snatch my phone in public. I told you, I didn’t take any picture.” 

Suddenly, her phone was snatched from behind. She turned around only to see Leopold holding her phone. She tried to grab it back, but Leopold, being taller, kept it out of her reach. 

“Leopold, what’s this about?” Charlotte fumed, “Are you and Thalassa an item? Are you afraid people will find out?” 

“Shut up!” Leopold snapped. 

Charlotte might not fear Thalassa, but she definitely didn’t dare to mess with Leopold, a member of the Sinclair family. 

Leopold deleted the picture and tossed the phone back to Charlotte, warning her, “Stay out of my business. If I find out you’re causing trouble behind my back, you won’t get away with it.” 

Charlotte caught her phone, her lips curled in anger, “I don’t get what’s so special about Thalassa, everyone’s protecting her!” 

Then she stomped off in a huff. 

Thalassa exhaled in relief, turning to Leopold, “I’m going home. I need to rest.” 

Knowing she had a concussion, Leopold didn’t insist, “I’ll take you home.” 

“No need, I’ll take a taxi.” As she was about to remove the bracelet to return it, Leopold’s sharp voice stopped her, “Keep the bracelet on. Don’t take it off. Or else, I’ll take you home.” 

Thalassa paused. “You should go eat. I’m leaving.” 

She gave up on removing the bracelet and walked out briskly. 

Everyone seemed to like threatening her. 

They found her weakness and used it against her. 

Thalassa was exhausted.
