Chapter 41
Elysia was taken aback, her eyes wide with surprise.
Tarquin’s face was a thundercloud as he didn’t give her a chance to react. He hauled her into the next empty
room.
He pinned her against the door, his body an imposing wall. He looked down, his gaze Intense and unyielding.
Elysia’s back pressed hard against the door, with nowhere to retreat. She stood tall, her eyes vigilant as she
faced Tarquin.
“What do you want?!” she demanded, her voice trembling.
Was he finally going to explode? Was the storm about to break? Was he about to demand money from her?
Tarquin remained silent, just staring straight at her with a complex expression. He didn’t know if the woman
before him was truly the one he had been desperately searching for. Because of this uncertainty, he didn’t know
how to approach her or even what to say.
Elysia, puzzled by his unusual behavior on the ride over, was now convinced that his look was different. Though
still icy, it carried a hint of warmth.
Seeing him remain silent, Elysia coughed lightly, “What... what are you doing here? Aren't you afraid of Tarquin
giving you trouble?”

Tarquin just stood there, silent.
Elysia realized that name-dropping Tarquin was useless, so she tried a different tactic,
“Are you here to askfor money? Look, I... | don’t have any. Besides, it was you guys who picked on my son
Emmett first!”
Tarquin remained quiet.
Elysia continued, “Even if it wasn’t you who threw the first punch, I'm certainly not the one at fault here. If there
is any compensation, it shouldn't all fall on me. And I really don’t have any money. Even if you killed me, | have
nothing. If I did, | would have given it to you already. Can you givestto scrape something together?”
Tarquin still said nothing, and Elysia was starting to panic,
“You're not here for money? Are you here to avenge that old man, Gage? | told you harassedfirst; | was
defending myself.”

Tarquin remained silent, and Elysia was getting irritated, “What do you want, anyway? Can you please say
something?”
Tarquin’s lips moved, but no sound cout.

Just as Elysia opened her mouth to speak again, Tarquin suddenly lifted his hand.
Elysia thought he was going to hit her and instinctively dodged, feeling a slight pain on her head, like an ant bite.
“What are you doing?” she said, her hands protectively covering her head.
Tarquin gave her a complicated look and then turned and left the room.
Elysia was left completely puzzled.
Tarquin stopped at the door and instructed Lowell, “Keep an eye on her. Don't let her escape, and don’t let her
be mistreated.”
He took Elysia and Elijah’s hair samples and personally handed them to Benjamin.
“Run the tests. | need results as soon as possible.”
Benjamin, unaware of whose samples he was holding, hesitated and said, “The soonest would be tomorrow.”
“Just make sure you handle it yourself.”
“Will do.”
Benjamin had just entered the lab with the samples when Elijah suddenly caused a
-commotion.

Upon waking and seeing a female nurse by his bed, he went berserk. He ripped out his IV, smashed the bedside
monitor, and even cut his own face and arms with the needle.
When Benjamin and Tarquin arrived, the room was in shambles..
Elijah was throwing and smashing things around like a madman while the nurse, terrified, was shivering in a
corner, crying.
Seeing the blood on Elijah’s body, Tarquin’s heart leaped to his throat.
“Elijah!”
“Stay back!”
Tarquin choked on his words.
“If you cany closer, I'll jump!”
Elijah stood by the window, his small brow furrowed as he glared at Tarquin, his small fists clenched, his
breathing rapid and ragged,
It was unclear how badly he was hurt, with blood covering his face and hands, and his eyes were red as if filled
with blood.
Tarquin was beside himself with anxiety, standing still, not daring to move.
