Elijah pressed on, "Besides you and Ms. Thorne, who else has been to my room?" "No one else, what's up?" Elijah eyed him suspiciously, then turned and left without another word.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTarquin was visibly anxious. He watched the direction of the door for a moment, then grabbed his phone to call Elysia.
At that moment, Elysia was chatting with Evan about White, "Evan, can you tell if White is a boy or a girl?" "Of course, it's just like me, a bright and handsboy." "Is it tto find a girlfriend then?" Evan's cheeks flushed with shyness, "Mommy, I'm still a little kid. Didn't you say kids have to grow up before they can have girlfriends?" Elysia laughed helplessly, "I was talking about White, not you." "Oh, White can't have a girlfriend yet. It's still too little. Besides, its kind are deep in the forests, if we were to find it a girlfriend, we'd need to go back to the forest. Didn't you say we're not going back anytsoon?" "That's true, we're not going back..." Elysia sounded a bit dejected.
White was too young for a girlfriend. To find its kind, they'd need to venture into the deep forests. Well, she couldn't make that money after all! Just as she was feeling regretful, her phone suddenly rang. She glanced at the caller ID with a puzzled frown. What's he calling for so late? Elysia moved aside to answer. Before she could speak, Tarquin's anxious voice burst through, "Something's happened to Elijah; cover quick!" Elysia was stunned, "What happened to Elijah?" "Cover and I'll tell you!" Tarquin hung up abruptly, leaving Elysia panicking.
She didn't dare to waste any time, quickly changing her clothes, and instructing Blossom to keep an eye on the kids while she rushed out the door. "What's happened? Mommy looked really worried." Evan was curious.
Elliot pondered for a few seconds, "It's about Elijah, probably something to do with today's family gathering. Evan, cwithto check it out. Emmett, you cover for us at home. If Blossom comes in, just say we're in the bathroom." "Got it." The kids had their roles clearly defined. One stayed behind to decoy Blossom, and two sneaked out following Elysia to Sunshine Community.
Half an hour later.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as Elysia saw Tarquin, she urgently asked, "What exactly happened to Elijah?" "Let's talk in the study." Tarquin closed the door and led her into the study. Benjamin Lawson was there too. They greeted each other with grave expressions.
Tarquin's brow was furrowed, "Elijah has no recollection of today's family gathering. He says all he remembers is being asleep." Elysia caught her breath, "You, you brought up the family gathering again?" "He ctoabout it." Elysia was terrified, her heart racing.
Was this going to blow their cover? As she was at a loss for words, Tarquin suddenly said, "I suspect he has dissociative identity disorder." Elysia's eyelids twitched and blinked rapidly in confusion.
Benjamin frowned, "That's a possibility! Dissociative identity disorder is a psychological condition. When a person's inner turmoid m reaches a certain threshold, another personality may emerge, with the primary personality stepping back. This alternate persona can take over, altering preferences and behaviors so much that to outsiders, it seems like they've beca completely different person."
Tarquin's expression was solemn, "I noticed it today during the gathering. One moment he was poised and ment he was articulate, the next he was exuberant and impulsive, and then he becaloof upon returning. He might have three distinct personalities!" mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
