The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

After lunch, Thalassa received a call from a professor at Starhaven College, reminding her of an upcoming exam in the afternoon and advising her to arrive early to avoid being late.

Thalassa quickly packed her bag and got ready to leave.

Fitch approached with a sense of duty.

"Ms. Everhart," he inquired, "when should Dr. Funke's medicine be prepared?"

It was crucial that Thalassa administer the medication to Lysander at the perfect time, as the potency and freshness of the remedy were essential. Typically, she would start preparing the medicine after lunch, ensuring it was warm and ready for Lysander to consume. However, since Thalassa would be away for the afternoon, preparing it at noon would mean it would be cold and stale by the time she could administer it.

Glancing at the clock, Thalassa realized it was already one o'clock, and her exam was at two. There was no way she could prepare the medicine, feed it to Lysander, and still make it in time.

"We'll just have to prepare it when I get back," she decided. "It's fine for Lysander to take the medicine in the afternoon."

"Alright," Fitch agreed.

With her backpack slung over her shoulder, Thalassa stepped out the door.
