The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet

The other two kids. Atticus and Sophia, saw Dorian and Elowen being all cute in their mom’s arms, but

they just kept munching on their fries, not bothering to join in.

Out of the four adorable kids. Dorian and Elowen are the softies, always acting cute and cuddly.

Everyone’s got their own personality, right?

Evelyn came out of the kitchen holding a plate of food, slammed it on the table, and said to Thalassa

with a straight face, “Just now you’re coming back? Did you get sacked again? We’re flat broke. Can

you work harder?”

Looking after four kids every day was no joke. The minute she took her eyes off them, they were gone!

It scared the life out of her. If she had enough dough, she could hire a nanny to help her out, and she

wouldn’t be this worn out.

Sadly, her daughter hadn’t really hit her stride yet and was still grinding at the bottom, barely making

ends meet every month.

Evelyn was tired

Thalassa, holding the hands of two kids, stood up and said to Evelyn, Moin, I wasn’t sacked. I just

came to check in.”

Thalassa’s back.” The bathroom door opened and out came Hertha

Thalassa, with a smile, said. “Hertha, you’re here too”

“Yep, came to help your mom watch the kids,” Hertha said

To which Evelyn grumbled, “If it wasn’t for Hertha, we’d be starving today!”

After that, she shot Thalassa a disapproving look and headed back into the kitchen.

Thalassa scratched her head and kept silent.

She thought, if it weren’t for that wad of cash her mom blew they couldve made it till payday.

“Hertha, thank you.” Thalassa expressed her gratitude

Hertha waved it off and said, “We go way back, you don’t have to stand on ceremony with me. Plus, I’m

their godmother, so it’s kind of my job too, right?”

Hertha’s words warmed Thalassa’s heart, and her eyes welled up.

“Once I start making money, the first thing I’ll do is treating you to a slap-up meal Thalassa said, her

fighting spirit ignited.

“Ha ha, can’t wait for your lavish feast,” Hertha laughed heartily

-Just then, a phone on the table rang

It was Herthas, and an unknown number was calling

Hertha was about to answer it when a little hand reached out and picked up the phone.

Hertha glanced over and saw that Dorian had taken the phone and answered it expertly. “Hello, who is

this?”

Dorian loved answering calls. It was his chance to show off his acting chops.

Hertha knew Dorian’s style, and figured from the unknown number it was probably a scammer.

So she let Dorian have his fun with the person on the other end

“Hello little one, can you put your mommy on the phone?” a man’s voice came from the other end.

“Before I let my mom talk to you, can you tell me who you are?” Dorian asked as he turned on the

speakerphone, trying to fish for information about this

stranger.

Thinking you can fool his mom or Hertha? Not on his watch. He snickered.

Thalassa and Hertha shared a smile and a head shake at his smooth talk

This stranger must be a scammer

“1 am David, the personal assistant to the CEO of the Sinclair group, the man introduced himself.

Hearing this, Thalassa’s smile froze.

Just as she was about to take the phone, Dorian said, “Sir, I happen to be the son of the CEO of the

Sinclair group. Are you aware you’re pretending to be my dad’s certant?”

Dorian was clearly using his anti-scammer tone of voice.

Thalassa sucked in a breath and quickly reached for the phone.
