NovelFinishChapter 386 Elijah hugged Elysia tightly, his excitement palpable. "Thanks, Mommy." Elysia, with a doting smile, gently ruffled his hair. "Silly boy, you're my little treasure. No need to thank me, okay?" Just then, Elijah's stomach growled audibly.
Elysia chuckled. "Are you hungry?" Elijah nodded shyly, "A bit." "Let's see what we've got in the fridge. I'll whip something up for you." "Okay." Living in a high-end apartment, Elijah had everything he needed at his fingertips-a kitchen, a study, a bathroom, and all the essentials for daily life.
As Elysia headed to the kitchen to prepare something for Elijah, he took the opportunity to think about the paternity test.

Glancing towards the kitchen, Elijah decided to call Elliot back.
Elliot answered immediately, "Elijah, you're awake? Are you okay?" "Yeah, don't worry about me. I'm fine now." "That's a relief. Did you see the messages we sent?" "I did. I've already talked to Mommy. She's agreed to stay for a while and give things a try with Dad. If it doesn't work out, she'll leave then." "Is Mommy really okay with this?" "Yeah! I wouldn't force her if she wasn't. She's in a good mood now, actually makingsfood." "That's great to hear. As long as she's happy, we're relieved." "But Mommy said, during this trial period with Dad, she doesn't want him to know her identity, so we need to sort out the paternity test issue." "Don't worry about that," Elliot reassured. "Evan and I took care of it last night." Hearing this, Elijah felt a wave of gratitude, "You guys are amazing. Thank you." "No need for thanks. We're brothers, and we do this for each other, for Mommy, and for our family." Feeling incredibly fortunate, Elijah was about to continue the conversation when Tarquin entered the room. The results of the paternity test were in! Not wanting to discuss it in front of Elijah, Tarquin asked Elysia to step outside the room.
With a slight frown, he held up four envelopes. "The paternity test results are here." Elysia's heart skipped a beat! She glanced nervously back at the room.
Were the results tampered with in time, or was her secret blown? Being exposed could make escaping later a near-impossible feat.
Clutching her hands tightly, Elysia fought the urge to snatch theo m envelopes and fear them to shreds, her gaze fixated.
Tarquin, noticing her tension, offered a gentle out, "If you don't want to see them, you don't have to." Elysia, confused, looked up at him.

The threat of exposure hung over her, threatening to cage her like a canary, strip her of her freedom, and shadow her children's happiness. "Elysia, I'm not trying to pressure you, I..." "Just open them!" Elysia cut him off, refusing to back down until the very end.
Tarquin, frustrated by her stubbornness yet soft appearance, sighed. What a paradox she was.
