Chapter 62
Tarquin’s voice was ice as he said, “She’s not going anywhere.”
He sounded so sure.
“Huh? Why not? She said she was leaving.”
Tarquin’s eyes were full of mockery. “Leave without getting anything in return? That'd be a bad deal for her.”
Benjamin was puzzled. “What do you mean?”
“She wouldn't keep coming afterfor no reason. She's after something.”
“But | don’t think Ms. Thorne is that kind of person.”
“Appearances can be deceiving, everyone's an actor.”
Benjamin hesitated. “Tarquin, why do | get the feeling you're particularly resentful towards Ms. Thorne today?”
The results of the paternity test only deepened his dislike for Elysia. He thought back to that moment in the bar
when she had kissed him and wished he could erase it from
memory

His prejudice took root from there. And her meeting with Gideon only added to his suspicions.
If she couldn't be of use to Elijah, he would have already cut her out of the picture.
Meanwhile, after leaving the hospital, Elysia immediately called the Royal Community to inquire about her
divorce from Tarquin.
They asked her to hold on for a moment while they tried to contact Tarquin.
Elysia politely said, “Thank you for your efforts,” and hung up.
She hailed a cab and headed towards the town hall to get in line for the divorce process.
On the way, she called her friend Blossom, who had just finished shopping and was buzzing with excitement.
“I'm going to see the kids now. Oh, | can hardly wait!”
Elysia chuckled. “I've told the kids, and they're looking forward to your visit too. They'll be waiting for you at
home!
“I can’t wait either. Have you sorted everything out? Returned the money?”
“Yeah, just left the hospital. I've given that jerk the money.”

“What did he say?”
“He just said it was his grandfather's doing, then put on a cold face and was puffing with anger the whole time,
never showinga good side”
“That dog of a man. If | were you, I'd find a way to confirm whether he’s really that bastard or not. If he is, we
should take him downl Your husband’s no good, and neither is hel if you let him off the hook, you're letting him
off too easy”
In Blossom’s eyes, Elliot and Evan's father was nothing but a criminal!
Elysia felt a pang of reluctance; after all, he was partly responsible for her tragic life. If it hadn't been for him,
maybe she and Tarquin would have had a happy life together,
But she was scared. Scared that in trying to uncover the truth, she'd expose herself and set off a custody battle
that could end everything. He was thriving while she was barely scraping by.
It was like a battle between the common folk and the one percent-how could the underdog possibly win?
Better to let it go.
Rather than getting even, the real solution was to finalize the divorce with Tarquin and settle down with her little
ones.

The kids had to cfirst, she couldn't let them live a life of constant upheaval.
“Let’s deal with him later. I'm off to the town hall to get this divorce.”
“You're sure about this?”
“Yeah, I'm sure. But | don’t know how long it'll take. I'm going to queue up now. You guys. wait forat home,
and I'll call you when I'm done.”
“Okay, looking forward to your victorious return! Tonight, I'm treating you and the little ones to a feast to
celebrate inheriting three great boys and to welcyou to the single life.”
Elysia smiled. “Alright, we'll toast to that tonight.”
“To not stopping until we drop!”
“Deal!”
With the divorce settled, she could get the kids registered and then move to a new place, find a job, find
schools...
Life would finally get on track.
Elysia dreamed of a brighter future, a joy she couldn’t hide lighting up her face.
But reality, as cruel as it is, was ready with a harsh blow from Tarquin.
