Chapter 261

"Seriously? Of course, he is!"

Elysia was a mess of nerves, her words slicing through the air like a knife as she interrupted.

With a fierce protective instinct, she positioned Elliot behind her, eyes blazing with a clear message for Tarquin: 'Dare to mess with my kid, and you're messing with me!'

Tarquin furrowed his brows, his gaze a mix of annoyance and confusion as he looked at her.

Elliot didn't like the way Tarquin was glaring at his mom. He tugged quietly at Elysia's shirt, signaling her to keep her cool for a moment.

Stepping forward, Elliot faced Tarquin with a slight frown.

This was their second encounter, and Elliot was better at controlling his emotions now.

His eyes mirrored his dissatisfaction, but confusion was there too.

He had made sure to wreck the surveillance himself, so what could Tarquin have possibly seen?

Tarquin shifted his focus back to Elliot.
