Chapter 586

"Worried about Elijah's safety? Shouldn't you be pushing him to stay with me then? I can protect him."

"And how exactly have you been protecting him? You've been by his side all these years, and yet, he still got hurt, didn't he? And let's not forget, the one who hurt Elijah did it because of you."

Tarquin fell silent.

Elysia said, "I'm not blaming you. I know you love Elijah, and you'd never want him to get hurt. It's not surprising you wouldn't know about the poisoning, given your lack of medical knowledge. But think about it, if the attacker went after Elijah because of you, maybe they'd back off if you two were apart?"

Hearing this, Tarquin felt a slight ease in his heart. She wanted them apart for Elijah's safety, not because she didn't care about him. He felt a deep guilt over Elijah's situation.

"Elijah getting hurt is indeed on me. If he wasn't my son, the attacker wouldn't have targeted him. I've brought danger to Elijah, I know that. But your idea isn't right! The attacker knows Elijah is my weakness. Even if Elijah and I were apart, it wouldn't stop them. In fact, Elijah would be an easier target away from me. He's safest by my side!"
