NovelOnlineChapter 297 Why did they take Elijah only to secretly hand him over to Tarquin instead of raising him themselves? There definitely was a schin play, perhaps even a conspiracy! Whoever was stirring the pot, whatever their nefarious plans, they better not mess with his mom. Otherwise... A fierce glint flashed in Elliot's eyes! Turning back to Elijah, he said, "Once we get the sample, I'll have it fast-tracked for analysis. We should have the results by this afternoon. If everything goes as expected, we'll find a way to meet up later today." "Alright, I'll be waiting!" After hanging up, Elijah hurried to gather the samples. Elysia had stayed at their place before, so finding samples was easy. To be extra careful, he didn't just collect sof Elysia's hair but also her toothbrush.
Not long after, the doorbell rang.
Elijah, having received a heads-up from Elliot, rushed to the door first. Seizing the opportunity while picking up a delivery, he handed over the prepared samples to the delivery person.

After hanging up, Elysia walked towards the door.
Elijah handed her the delivery. "The delivery person just dropped this off; it's for you." Elysia was puzzled. "Elliot just calledabout this. He knows I get up to make breakfast, yet he went ahead and ordered food. What was he thinking?" Covering up deeper motives, Elijah replied, "He probably just wanted to spare you the effort, worried you might skip breakfast." Elysia chuckled. "That Elliot, always so thoughtful." Watching Elysia's eyes light up with pride at the mention of Elliot, Elijah silently vowed to make her proud, just like Elliot did! Elysia, blessedly naive, took her sons' words at face value, unaware of the underlying subterfuge.
"Breakfast is ready; I'll go serve up the oatmeal. Could you call your dad to the table?" "Sure." Elijah nodded obediently and then headed to the study.
Tarquin was still reeling from Elijah's earlier words, thoroughly shell-shocked.
"Dad, breakfast is ready." Tarquin snapped back to reality. Closing the study door, he asked Elijah with a serious expression, "Do you understand what you just said?" "What do you mean?" "You said you want Elysia to be your mom." "Yes, that's what I said. No need to doubt your ears; you heard right." Tarquin was stunned again. "Can you explain what you're thinking?" Elijah, with a serious little face, stated, "I just like her. I want to be her son. If you have any objections, keep them to yourself!" Tarquin's expression turned complex. "If you becher son, what does that make me?" Elijah mumbled, "Maybe you could try to woo her, see if you can becher husband."
Tarquin's eyes widened, staring blankly at his son, more shockedthan ever! Overwhelmed by surprise, his attempt at maintaining a composed expression failed miserably. "Elijah, are you joking with me?" "No, I'm serious." Elijah looked earnestly at him, his tone serious, his expression sincere.
