NovelFinishChapter 387 She was clearly so smitten with Elijah, yet she stubbornly refused to admit she was the woman from back then.
By not admitting it, wasn't she essentially denying being Elijah's mother? She knew full well about Elijah's fixation on finding his mother, how desperately he wanted her back. How could she bear to let him keep yearning? What was she thinking? Tarquin was still in the dark, oblivious to the fact that the mother and son had already recognized each other. He was foolishly harboring doubts. "You even considered Elijah's feelings? He may call you Blossom, but he's never given up hope on his real mom. If he knew you were his birth mother, he'd be over the moon, he'd be..." "I don't need you meddling in my business with Elijah. Are you going to spill the beans, or not? If not, I'm going back inside!" Elysia interrupted him again, frowning.
Tarquin's brow furrowed; the atmosphere between him and Elysia was nothing like he had imagined over the years. He thought once he found her, she'd be angry, resentful, tearful, blaming him for his past sins! But he never expected her to keep denying it! Even he, the one at fault, was willing to admit it, yet she, the victim, stubbornly refused. Why? Tarquin couldn't understand it and finally said in a heavy tone, "If this is the only way you'll admit it, then fine, I'll spill it! To stop you from making more excuses, I'll do it right in front of you! Look, I had four paternity tests done, all here. The envelopes are still sealed, so the reports inside are definitely genuine, not forged by me!" Without giving Elysia a chance to respond, Tarquin tore open one of the envelopes. Elysia's heart leaped! Her breathing becerratic! She watched nervously as he slowly pulled out the report, her heart rising with it! No, no, no! She prayed silently for a miracle that the report would say she and Elijah weren't related. Elysia's palms were sweaty with anticipation. After reading the report, Tarquin looked up at her with a furrowed brow, paused, and then asked, "Want to see?" Elysia snatched it from him, glanced at it, and her eyes widened in shock. The test showed a 99.999999% probability of a maternal relationship with Elijah! Her heart pounded fiercely. Had Elijah not had a chance to tamper with the results? It was all out in the open now!
Without saying another word, Tarquin opened another envelope, and unsurprisingly, the result was the same. He handed the second report to Elysia and proceeded with the third, each confirming his belief. He had always known she was the one he was looking for! So when the reports confirmed their maternal relationship, he wasn't surprised at all.
Truth be told, neither was Elysia... She was just scared! She had known all along that she was the one he searching for, so the outcof the tests was no mystery to her. But, she had always clung to a sliver of hope! She wished for a miracle, for the tests to be wrong, to remain unrecognized! But hope is just hope, and reality doesn't always follow.
Holding the three opened reports, Elysia's anxiety turned into desolation. Before seeing the results, she was nervous and terrified, m clinging to that sliver of hope. Now that she saw them, all hope was gone, and she felt a strange sense of acceptance. She didn't want him to discover the truth, but she was powerless to alter reality. If change was impossible, then acceptance was the only option. It was tto face the music and lay everything out on the table. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
