“Alright, I’m on it.” Thalassa muttered, not wasting a single second. She leapt out of bed

and made a beeline for the door.

As she hurried, her legs momentarily gave way, nearly sending her tumbling to the floor.

But with a fierce determination, she steadied herself and powered through the weakness

in her legs, making a swift exit and remembering to shut the door behind her.

She stepped into the elevator alone and pressed the button for the basement level.

Susan was surely waiting in the lobby for her signal.

But Thalassa needed to slip out of the hotel through the basement to quickly make her

way back to Royal Estates to see Atticus about deleting that video.

She had given Lysander the slip, making up an excuse to leave the room. She knew once

Lysander got started, it would be hours before he’d be satisfied.

And she couldn’t wait that long nor could Susan. If Susan didn’t get her signal in time,

she’d become a bundle of nerves and might recklessly set out on her own. If Susan found

Thalassa and Lysander together, in the heat of the moment, who knows what she might

do? Thalassa couldn’t bear the consequences.

Susan had come to the hotel prepared, with that particular drug and an assistant, and

wouldn’t give up easily. If she didn’t get the signal, she’d undoubtedly find a way to obtain

a key card and get into Lysander’s room.

Knowing that Lysander had taken the drug and wouldn’t be in his usual clear-headed

state, Susan would barge into his room without a second thought, determined to make

herself his woman.

By leaving the hotel and racing against the clock to delete the video, Thalassa would buy

herself some time. Even if Susan got impatient and went looking, she’d only find Lysander

alone, which wouldn’t drive her to madness. Instead, Susan would likely try to seduce

Lysander, to claim him for herself.

Thalassa reached the basement floor without incident and quickened her pace toward the

exit. She dialed Evelyn’s number, hoping to intercept her and direct her to Royal Estates

instead of The Draven International Hotel.

The phone rang endlessly with no answer.

Once Evelyn dropped her phone into her bag, she wouldn’t be able to hear the bell

ringing, let alone picking up the phone.

What a frustrating habit of hers!

With no response from Evelyn and no time to spare, Thalassa hailed a cab and rattled off

the address for Royal Estates, urging the driver to go on full speed.

She figured Evelyn would find her way back if she couldn’t find Thalassa.

Back at the Draven International Hotel, no sooner had Thalassa left than Evelyn arrived.

She stepped into the luxurious lobby.

She scoured the banquet hall but didn’t find Thalassa. She then spotted a man in a sharp

suit mingling with the guests with a manner of ease and elegance. Evelyn believed that he

was the host of the event; otherwise, he wouldn’t have to please each guest with such

smooth operation.

Evelyn approached and asked, “Excuse me, young man, could you tell me where I might

find Thalassa?”

The man was Richard. He surveyed Evelyn with a curious eye upon hearing Thalassa’s

name and said, “May I ask what business you have with Thalassa?”

“Oh, I’m her mother.” Evelyn confessed. “She called me a little while ago, said she was

here and asked me to come find her.”

At the mention of being Thalassa’s mother, Richard’s demeanor warmed instantly. “You’re

Thalassa’s mother? She just went up to her hotel room. I’ll take you there.”

Evelyn, not wanting to be a bother, politely declined. “Just the room number would be fine.

I can find her myself. I wouldn’t want to take up your time.”

How could she possibly ask him to leave his guests just to escort her to a hotel room?

“Sure thing.” Richard agreed. “She’s in room 2809, on the 28th floor.”

“Thank you very much, young man.” Evelyn replied with a polite nod and headed toward

the elevator.
