NovelOnlineChapter 268 'Elijah' stopped in his tracks when he heard the warning. He darted over to Allegra, throwing a few warnings her way before bolting down the hill like a little monkey, disappearing from sight in a matter of seconds.
Tarquin's expression was a mix of emotions after watching the video.
Just moments ago, Elijah was with him, dressed in a suit and a long, black trench coat. When did he have tto change? Lowell rushed over, whispering urgently, "Tarquin, I got the scoop. Elijah caused a ruckus at the cemetery, threw punches, and even tried to dig up the Bradford family's ancestral grave. Even Gideon's cane didn't survive; Elijah snapped it in half! Our guys said Elijah was a sight to behold!" Tarquin was speechless. He tossed the tablet to Lowell and strode towards the restroom.

Biting his lip nervously, he looked up at Elliot, "Did I mess up? Did I ruin your and Mom's plan? I just... I just couldn't stand that old hag Allegra! The thought of her hiring someone to run mom over. I just lost it." Evan was aware of Elliot taking Elijah's place in today's ancestral ritual.
Despite Elliot's clear instructions to stay out of it, Evan couldn't help himself. He was worried about Elliot and his mom being bullied by the Bradfords, especially since his mom wasn't a fighter and Elliot was only moderately skilled. He snuck out to protect them.
Before Elliot and his mom arrived, Evan had already made his way to the hills.
He never expected to lose control at the sight of Allegra. Hearing her mock Elijah and his mom was the last straw for him.
When he learned about Allegra's plan to run his mom over, Evan was ready to confront her, but Elliot stopped him, insisting on handling it himself. Evan held back until he saw Allegra today, unable to restrain himself any longer.
Now, Evan knew he had done something wrong, "Elliot..." Elliot, with a stern look, replied, "It was wrong to chere without letting us know first. But, I understand where you're coming from. Just remember, don't act on your own again." "Yeah, but... what do we do now? About your and mom's plan..." "It's okay, I have a Plan B." "Plan B?" "Yes, I never go into battle unprepared." Elliot didn't elaborate on Plan B, simply instructing, "Take off your jacket. If you can't avoid Tarquin and the Bradford's bodyguards, just stay put in the restroom until it's safe to leave. If you think you can leave without being noticed, go ahead. Don't worry about Mom and me." "Got it! Also, they had an ambush set up today, wanting to kill Elijah!" Elliot's brow furrowed, "What do you mean?"
As Evan stripped off his jacket, he m quickly relayed his findings to Elliot.

With a grim expression, Elliot said, "Such heartless villains. Lucky for us, Elijah didn't show. Here, lendWhite; I have a plan." "Sure, White, listen to Elliot," Evan said.
White, his pet snake, flicked its tongue out at Evan in Evaninoacknowledgment before slithering up Elliot's sleeve. "Elijah." Tarquin suddenly appeared.
Elliot and Evan, shocked, turned to face him, eyes wide with surprise.
