The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen)
Chapter 1669

Kimberly was practically pacing the floor with impatience, urging, "Come on, spill it. What's on your mind?"

Alaric set his water bottle down on the coffee table, his eyes-mysteriously captivating-fixed on hers. He was undeniably handsome.

"I've been thinking," Alaric said, "about how to transition from being boyfriend and girlfriend to husband and wife."

Ah, Hertha, you're playing games with other guys, using me as a shield to deceive your parents and then pretending to be a single mom to break up in their eyes. Since you've admitted we're an item, don't blame me for taking matters into my own hands.

Kimberly's heart skipped a beat, her excitement palpable.

She had gotten the answer she was hoping for!

He was reconsidering his relationship with Hertha either they break up, or they get married!

Poor Hertha, with such a lack of confidence, immediately assuming he wanted to break up, never realizing he wanted to give her a stable home.

Kimberly, overjoyed, could hardly contain her excitement, blurting out, "Heck yes, I knew you were a responsible guy. I'm cooking dinner; I'll call you when it's ready." "Kimberly..." Alaric began.

But Kimberly cut him off, "No need to be polite. We're practically family. It's totally normal to share a meal. You had to rush off last time and missed dinner. I felt really bad about it."

Kimberly had once harbored hopes that Hertha and Spencer could reconcile, that they might get back together, until that day Spencer and Emmeline showed up at Hertha's place, all lovey-dovey, and Spencer mentioned he and Emmeline were tying the knot soon.

That was the moment Kimberly gave up on the idea of Spencer and Hertha getting back together.

Now, with Hertha hitting thirty and still single, Kimberly was genuinely worried about her daughter's marital prospects.

With a decent man right here, she was determined to seize the opportunity for Hertha.

"Alright then, take care," Alaric didn't insist further, standing up to see Kimberly off.

Her heart paused, hesitantly saying, "You know, you remind me of someone..."

You look just like my granddaughter, Helena, especially those eyes.

"Really? Look like who?" Alaric asked.

"My family's..." Kimberly started to say her granddaughter but then remembered Hertha had mentioned the kids had a different father. Not wanting to imply Hertha saw Alaric as just a stand-in and potentially hurt their relationship, she quickly changed the subject, "Like a distant little nephew of mine, also has those captivating eyes."

Alaric just smirked, saying nothing more.

"Go rest up; I'll come to get you soon," Kimberly said, her smile returning. With that, she went inside.

Hertha was inside, playing with the kids, and turned curious at her mother's return, asking, "Mom, did you get the soy sauce?"
