Chapter 251

Because of this, Tarquin hadn't shown Elysia a single smile all day.

And Elysia? She didn't bother with him either. It's not like he was ever Mr. Sunshine towards her!

After fixing dinner, Elysia was ready to head home.

These past few days, she'd spent her mornings here with Elijah, only to return home in the evenings to her three little rascals.

When it was time to leave with White, Elijah clearly seemed reluctant to part ways. Elysia could only comfort him, "I'll talk it over with Evan, see if we can bring White over again tomorrow to hang out with you."

As much as she wanted Elijah to be happy, White was Evan's pet; she couldn't just decide to give White to Elijah without consulting Evan. Neither could she just cheer up Elijah and ignore how Evan felt.

Elijah, silent, handed White back to her and turned his gaze towards the window.

With a doting tone, Elysia said, "I'll come by again tomorrow, see you then."

Elijah didn't respond, the epitome of aloofness.

It wasn't until he heard the door close behind her that he turned around, looking both aggrieved and unhappy. He didn't want her to go, but pride kept him from asking her to stay.

Just like his dad, too proud for his own good.

In the living room, Elysia was surprised to find Tarquin, dressed and ready, standing by the door.
