NovelFinishChapter 392 In the hospital room, Elysia was still on edge. The moment she saw Elijah return, she quickly whispered, "Elijah, did you tamper with the paternity test Dr. Benjamin ran?" Elijah, covering for Elliot and Evan, admitted with a nod, "Yeah." "You're amazing! How did you manage that in such a short time?" Elijah fibbed, "I called a buddy to slip a fake test result into the file. Don't worry, Mom, Dad and Uncle Benjamin have no clue. And I've already talked to Dad. He won't force you into another test." Elysia, both shocked and delighted, exclaimed, "Really?" "Yeah!" Elysia was overjoyed. "That's fantastic!" No more worries about the paternity test! Curious, she asked, "Elijah, he can be so tough to deal with. How did you convince him?" Elijah explained, "Dad really listens toand cares about how I feel. I told him I didn't want him digging into your and my relationship anymore, and he agreed right away. From now on, Mom, just live your life at ease. I've got your back, and Dad won't dare run another test on his own." Elysia was deeply moved and planted a kiss on Elijah's cheek, "Elijah, you're Mommy's little hero!" Elijah's cheeks flushed with embarrassment, not used to being kissed by a girl.
He pursed his lips, held his breath, and stood stiff for a while before speaking again, "Mom, you remember what you promised me, right?" Elysia knew what he was referring to and fell silent for a moment.
She knew she couldn't be with that man; agreeing to spend twith him was just a waste of time. But if it could make her son happy, it was worth it.

But he didn't make a move, instead just staring at Elysia, his breathing erratic and too shy to actually kiss her.
His cheeks were beet-red.
"Why's your face so red all of a sudden? Are you feeling okay?" Elysia asked.
Elijah quickly looked away, his heart racing, "No, it's nothing." Elysia, still concerned, checked his forehead to make sure he wasn't feverish, then carried him back to his hospital bed, "Elijah, rest for a bit. I'll call you when dinner is ready." "Okay, Mom, can you make a portion for Dad too?" Elijah looked at her with hopeful eyes.
Elysia hesitated for a second but then nodded, "Alright!" She didn't feel like cooking for him, but she couldn't bear to refuse her son.
While Elysia was busy cooking, Elijah texted Elliot, briefing him on the mini-meeting between him and their mom.
Elliot and Emmett were in good spirits.

Since Tarquin agreed not to probe into their mom's past, their beloved mom wouldn't have to live to live in anxiety and fear anymore. But Evan had strong opinions, scoffing,
"Mom doesn't even like him, and now she has to spend twith him?n That's just torturing her. Having to face someone she dislikes every day, she'd feel sick to her stomach." Elliot responded, "As long as he stops investigating her, she can peacefully coexist with him." "Hmph! Mom will never fall for that jerk Tarquin, it's a waste of time!"
"It's not a waste. If she still doesn't like Tarquin after this Vesih period, Elijah will join us in leaving. We're buying Will tfor Elijah, not for Tarquin." Evan felt somewhat better, pouting, "Mom will definitely not fall for that loser Tarquin. Our mom deserves better!" The four little ones had vastly different attitudes towards the situation between Elysia and Tarquin.
