Tarquin could read Elysia like an open book, and with a soft voice, he said, "If Emmett's biological parents ever come looking for him, we'll respect Emmett's wishes. If Emmett wants to go with them, we'll let him. If he doesn't, he stays with us. Don't worry about the kind of home his biological parents might have. Whether Emmett stays with us or not, we'll make sure he's set up for a happy future. So, just breathe."

Elysia exhaled deeply, her mind somewhat at ease after her conversation with Blossom. Deep down, she knew she'd find it hard to let go after all these years of raising Emmett. But if Emmett's biological parents came for him and he chose to leave with them, she couldn't stand in his way. She hoped for Emmett's sake that his biological family was well-off. But Tarquin was right; with them by his side, they wouldn't let Emmett suffer. "Let's cross that bridge when we come to it. Don't eat yourself up over this," Tarquin consoled her.

Nodding, Elysia kissed Emmett's forehead before standing up to leave his room. Once outside, she asked, "You seem in a good mood, what were you and the kids talking about?"

"The kids were just expressing their love for me, saying they love me more than anything."

Elysia raised an eyebrow, "They said they love you more than anything?"

"Yes!"

"Really?"
