The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

Chapter 344

Her finger hovered over the name Lysander, yet before she could press it, her phone buzzed with a call from Leopold.

Thalassa, her heart in her throat, had been about to call Lysander when the sudden vibration startled her.

Silence.

She held the phone to her ear without uttering a word because she didn’t know what to say to him.

On the other end, there was also silence for a few seconds.

Leopold seemed unprepared for her to answer. He had been ready for her to ignore the call after it rang for quite some time.

Yet suddenly, he realized the call had been picked up. The awkwardness and silence that ensued resembled the cold air in an ice cellar, suppressing his mood.
