NovelStartTarquin flashed a doting smile and ventured, "Have you ever thought about finding your biological parents?" Elysia sighed deeply.
"When I was a kid, sure, every tI felt slighted by the Thorne family, I'd think about them. I even considered running away to find them! But I didn't know if I was abandoned or just lost. Too scared to seek them out.
If they had abandoned me, even if I found them, they wouldn't love me.
As I grew up, I stopped thinking about it, especially after having my kids. My life was filled with joy and contentment, my focus shifted to them entirely." "And if... just if, you got news about them someday, would you consider looking for them?" Elysia paused for a moment.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"It would depend, really. If they abandoned me, then there's no point in reuniting. I wouldn't bother holding any grudge; just live my life without crossing paths.
But if I was kidnapped, or lost by accident, and they wanted to findtoo, then I'd be willing to meet them. After all, I owe my life to them." Who doesn't want to know their origins? Who doesn't yearn to find their birth parents? But such matters can't be forced.
Elysia was living a happy and fulfilling life and had a relaxed perspective on this issue.
A flicker of something crossed Tarquin's eyes, unnoticed by Elysia, who then excused herself to the bathroom with her phone.
She emerged moments later, panic-stricken.
"Verity's dead?" She had been with Jessamine all afternoon without a moment to check her phone, only now catching up on the news online.
The inte was awash with news of Verity's death, trending everywhere.
Tarquin nodded. "Car accident on the road, hit and killed unexpectedly." This accident was surely no coincidence, but with the driver also dead, the trail went cold.
Josiah called that evening, finding no leads, leaving it classified as a tragic accident.
Tarquin wasn't surprised. A mastermind wouldn't find it hard to stage a perfect traffic accident.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith the trail gone cold, they would wait. The mastermind behind this would make a move eventually.
His focus, for now, was on Elysia's biological parents.
Elysia's origins were far from ordinary! Unaware of his thoughts, Elysia still lamented Verity's death, "This is so sudden!" "...It is. But she didn't die in vain; bad deeds eventually catch up." "What about her son?" "He hasn't cback yet." "With Verity gone, shouldn't he be coming back?" "Not necessarily."
If he doesn't cback, so be it. But if he dares, Tarquin was ready to detain him on sight! Now, with more information on the mastermind, Tarquin planned to change his strategy.
No longer playing the long game, he intended to strike fast, fast at anyonem related to the mastermind, forcing them into the open. Seeing Elysia frown, Tarquin lifted his hand, smoothing out the worry lines on her forehead.
"Don't worry about her son causing trouble. With Verity gone, her som able to stir up won't be able to n't er som up any storms upon his return. It's getting late, you should get ready for bed." "...Yeah." Taking advantage of Elysia's absence, Tarquin made a call, "Dig into the Hawkins family quietly, don't alert them." mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
