NovelOnlineChapter 274 The moment it happened, none of them paid any attention to Elliot's expressions or subtle movements.
Even if they had noticed, they couldn't imagine that it was White who had secretly turned the tide. After all, they all believed that White was just a somewhat rare little snake, nothing more out of the ordinary.
The room fell silent for a moment before Tarquin flicked his cigarette ash and said, "We need to look into this! Bringthe information on that mysterious person from last night." Lowell immediately shifted his focus, pulling out his smartphone to find a photo and handed it over to Tarquin, "This is the only photo we have, but he's wearing a mask so we can't see his face." The photo was a blurry capture from a surveillance camera.

"Tarquin, you've always suspected Ms. Thorne had someone backing her up, right? Do you think it could be him? Maybe he attacked Allegra just to revenge for Ms. Thorne. He was smirking at Elijah's window last night, so maybe he wasn't there for Elijah but Ms. Thorne?" Tarquin's brows furrowed tighter, and he stayed silent for a while, then stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray and stood up from his study. He walked over to Elijah's door and knocked, "Elijah." Elysia had just helped Elliot move Elijah from the box under the bed to the bed.
She whirled around towards the door, her heart pounding.
"What's up?" "Open the door." Elysia, panic-stricken, watched as Elliot tugged at her clothes, pointing first to the box and then under the bed, signaling he'd hide there first.
Nodding, Elysia quickly pushed the box under the bed after Elliot jumped in.
After straightening the bedspread and steadying her nerves, she went to open the door.
Tarquin saw her sweating and looking guilty as if she had just done something wrong, and frowned, "What's going on?" "What?" "Up to no good again?" Elysia, taken aback, retorted, "You're the one who's up to no good!" Tarquin ignored her and stepped into the room. He saw Elijah with his eyes closed, looking like he'd been asleep for ages, and asked Elysia, "What's with Elijah?" Elysia stuttered, "What do you mean, 'what's with him'? Are you blind? Can't you see he's sleeping?" Tarquin frowned and glanced at her, "Why did he suddenly fall asleep?" "Been out too long and got tired." Tarquin touched his son's cheek, found his breathing even, and didn't think much of it. He then said to Elysia, "Cout here, I need to ask you something." After Tarquin left, Elysia watched his departing figure, gasping for air, and thumped her chest in relief.

As if sensing something, Tarquin suddenly stopped, turned around! saw Elysia thumping her chest, and got puzzled. "What are you panicking for?!" Elysia shivered, her eyes widening, "Huh?"
