Chapter 3

Thalassa gingerly balanced a tray, making her way towards VB. She was petrified that she might accidentally smash the expensive booze.

“Ah!” Suddenly, someone emerged from the intersection, bumping into Thalassa and letting out a startled yelp-

Thalassa nearly jumped out of her skin, hastily clutching the unstable bottles on the tray. Phew, thank God, the bottles didn’t break

“What’s your problem, can’t you apologize after bumping into someone” A sharp, biting voice echoed in the air.

Thalassa looked at the newcomer, spotting a face full of hostility It wasn’t her fault, but clients came first. She was about to apologize, but the animosity from the woman made her change her mind

“You!”

“Your” They both exclaimed in surprise.

Isabella eyed Thalassa up and down, snickering. “Well, well, I didn’t expect to see you slumming it in a nightclub. If you’re really struggling, you should have come to me. I could have found you some decent work. After all, I’m a hotshot now, and I own my own company. We’re family. We’re supposed to help each other out.”

Her mind started spinning with wicked ideas. She offered to help Thalassa cook and during the meal, she kept finding excuses to get Leopold to drink.
