The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

Chapter 514

The night was as dark as ink. Underneath the elevated highway, beside a pond, insects chirped, and frogs croaked. The scent of fresh grass lingered in the air, blending with the night’s mist, touching their skin with a cold chill.

Thalassa, with her four children and Evelyn, hid in a ditch beneath the highway.

In front of them, the pond shimmered in the moonlight, and its depth was concealed by the darkness, a sight that brought fear to their hearts.
