The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet by Thalassa Chapter 1280

Chapter 1280 

The boat steadied momentarily, and Thalassa’s breath hitched as she saw her mother plunge into the water. Panic overtook her senses, and she leapt to her feet, darting toward the spot where her mother had disappeared, screaming out loud, “Mom!” 

Evelyn struggled in the water, her body sinking and rising, gulping down water until she could no longer resurface, her form descending into the depths. 

“Mom!” Thalassa’s heart raced, threatening to burst from her throat as she frantically prepared to dive in after her mother. 

Her hands had just grazed the edge of the boat when a strong grip seized her, pulling her 

back. 

“Let me go. I have to save my mom!” Thalassa instinctively tried to shake off the restraint. Lysander’s voice cut through, “Can you even swim? Jumping in would be suicide.” 

“I don’t care! My mom’s drowning, can’t you see? Let go of me, I have to save her!” Tears streamed down Thalassa’s face as she struggled fiercely, trying to break free from Lysander’s grasp. 

“Mmm…” Evelyn floundered at the surface, her fate as uncertain as a fish leaping from the 

water. 

Thalassa’s heart was in knots, desperation fueling her attempts to shake off Lysander’s hold, “Let go of me. I have to save her!” 

Lysander’s gaze was icy as he looked at her, his eyes a wintry abyss. 

“Someone helps!” Callum, using his cane for support, rose to his feet and shouted across -to a nearby fisherman for assistance. 

The fisherman heard the call for help and quickly grabbed a life ring and plunged into the 

water. 

But it was too late. Evelyn had already sunk below the surface. 

Thalassa stared at the now calm water, her pupils dilated with terror, her scalp tingling as she cried out, “Mom!” 

Herlips quivered and her face turned ashen, her legs going weak. 

Lysander watched her panic-stricken expression, his face tense and his complexion grave. Even in her fear, she hadn’t thought to seek his help. 

– 

She would rather leap to her own death than ask him for assistance, never considering in her frantic state that he might be a person she could trust.

Suddenly Lysander clenched his jaw and released Thalassa’s wrist. 

Now free, Thalassa wobbled, ready to plunge into the water to rescue her mother. 

But a tall, dark figure jumped first, diving into the river. 

Thala 

stumbled to the edge of the boat, watching as Lysander disappeared beneath 

the surface, bubbles popping and then calm returning. 

Both Lysander and her mother were gone! 

Staring at the tranquil water, Thalassa’s eyes widened with tears falling. 

Her body felt limp, and she collapsed onto the deck of the boat. 

“Thalassa!” Callum approached, leaning heavily on his cane, witnessing her despair, yet unable to help. 

One hand on his cane, the other hanging on his neck because of the broken wrist, he was unable to offer any assistance. 

He couldn’t even muster the strength to pull Thalassa to her feet. 

Just as Thalassa was about to give in to her sorrow and leap after them, a head emerged from the water. 

It was Lysander! 

He was holding Evelyn. 

Lysander’s hair was drenched, but his face, misted with droplets, still shone in the sunlight. 

He tugged Evelyn along, swimming toward the boat. 

Thalassa’s heart was ignited with hope. 

Her weakened legs found strength, and she stood, eyes fixed on Lysander and Evelyn as they approached. 

As they reached the side, Thalassa reached out to help. 

Lysander lifted Evelyn up, and with Thalassa pulling from aboard, Evelyn was hauled onto the boat soon.
