The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

Chapter 622

Looking at Evelyn’s panic and tears, Thalassa felt a heart-wrenching helplessness.

Why would Evelyn think that talking to Grandma Sybil or Grandpa Zephyr could change Lysander’s decision not to marry her?

Thalassa swallowed, weakly saying to Evelyn, “Mom, do you think Lysander’s refusal to marry me is simply because he looks down on me?”

“What else could it be? It’s because you don’t have power or status or a good family background. That’s why the Sinclairs look down on you. I thought that if I could convince the elders of the Sinclair family, at least I could fight for your chance to marry Lysander. You are my daughter; how could I bear to see you being bullied like this?” Evelyn’s hand, gripping Thalassa’s, trembled slightly.

She didn’t want to see Thalassa spend her life alone and miserable. She had given birth to four children, all fathered by Lysander.

If Lysander didn’t marry her, no one else would.

Evelyn, who had been single all her life and struggled alone, knew all too well the bitterness of the situation.

She didn’t want her daughter to suffer the same fate.
