Chapter 46
When Thalassa saw this man, she felt a sense of familiarity. Where had she seen him before?
But she couldn’t quite put her finger on it.
Upon seeing her, the man’s eyes sparkled, and with a mischievous grin, he said in a laid-back tone, ‘Hey, club girl, I didn’t expect to see you at the Sinclair group. Here for Lysander?”
His casual and cheeky words were just so him.
Thalassa instantly remembered who he was.
That rich young man she met when she was working at the club, surrounded by gorgeous women, looked the most satisfied when a lady was feeding hirn fruit.
Thalassa became alert immediately, holding onto Hertha tightly and keeping him at a distance.
She gave an awkward laugh and said coldly. “Sorry, sir, you’ve got the wrong person.
After saying that, she tried to leave with Hertha
However, just as they were about to exit the elevator, Hertha broke free and ran towards the man, looking up at him with twinkling eyes and an infatuated smile “Hey, handsome, I’m her friend. Can I get to know you?”
As she said this, she quickly pulled out her phone, opened a WhatsApp QR code, and handed it to him, indicating she wanted to add him as a contact.
Thalassa looked at her puzzled
What was up with Hertha? Was she smitten? Where was her self-control?
Why was she drooling and grinning like an idiot at him? Her eyes were practically shooting laser beams
Seeing Hertha acting so strangely, Thalassa stepped in, grabbed Hertha’s hand, and said to the man with a laugh. “Sorry about this; my friend’s a bit overzealous on the social front. She likes to add whoever she meets to her WhatsApp”
She was about to apologize and take Hertha away
But Hertha kept pushing her aside, holding up her QR code stubbornly, her eyes fixated on the man, even licking her lips.
This infatuated behavior was really weird. Thalassa felt a headache coming on
Alaric raised an eyebrow, his eyes full of amusement as he watched Hertha, especially the part where she licked her lips like a hungry cat looking at its favorite can of tuna, almost unable to hold back
Alaric found it pretty entertaining, but he didn’t laugh out loud, holding it in.
‘Man, I’m just too charming. I can’t even walk down the street without being hit on by a beauty. It’s tough being this handsome, Alaric said, bragging arrogantly while casually scanning the QR code Hertha was holding up
Only then did Hertha put away her phone, satisfied.
Thalassa couldnt stand it anymore and dragged Hertha away
Before leaving, Hertha turned back and told Alaric, “Handsome, my name’s Hertha, dont forget to tag my name in your phone!”
Thalassa practically dragged her out of the Sinclair group.
Once they were on the street and sure no one was around, she let go of Hertha, holding her forehead, and said, “Hertha, what on earth were you doing
back there?”
“Picking up a hot guy, of course! Didn’t you see that hunky boy? His looks really swept me off my feet. With his mischievous smile, his bright eyes, and those long legs of his, my heart was doing somersaults!”
Hertha said, cupping her flushed face in her hands, her heart racing just thinking about it.
Was this what love felt like? It’s way too sweet!
“Don’t judge a book by its cover, Thalassa reminded her
