NovelOnlineChapter 306 Elijah didn't beat around the bush when he shared his story.
"I learned from a guy I met online. I've always missed Mommy a lot and kept to myself, not really into talking with others. Daddy was worried I was getting too isolated, so he gota computer, hoping I'd make sfriends online.
That's when I met my mentor. He was on a quest, just like me, searching for someone he lost a long tago. We bonded over our shared struggles and becfast friends in the digital world.

So, to find Mommy sooner, I took his offer to teach me." Elliot was curious. "Who's this mentor of yours?" Elijah shook his head. "I'm not exactly sure who he is, just that he's brilliant. And he's still searching for the person he lost." This made Elijah a bit melancholy. He wished his mentor could find his lost one soon. Otherwise, the search would continue to pain him.
"Who's he looking for?" Elliot asked.
"I don't know, a woman very important to him." Elliot wondered, what kind of woman could be so hard to find, even for someone as capable as his mentor? After a brief silence, Elliot said, "A mentor for a day can be a father for a lifetime. He's taught you so much and guided you; he's a benefactor to our family. If we ever get the chance, Mommy and I would definitely need to thank him properly." "Yeah!" Then, Elliot steered the conversation back. "By the way, do you know why Daddy won't divorce Mommy?" "Huh? Daddy won't divorce Mommy?" "Yeah, he clearly doesn't like her. He was the one who initially pushed for the divorce, but it never happened! Mommy cback to Jindale City to finalize their divorce. Sadly, she's tried to reach him multiple times without success. I can't figure out what he's thinking." Elijah furrowed his brows in thought before replying, "He must be trying to ward off Nola." "Huh?" "Nola's got her sights set on Daddy and has been wanting marry him. Since she helpedout once, Daddy's been reluctant to outright reject her, using his married status as an excuse." Elijah's insight hit the nail on the head.
Elliot had an epiphany. "That makes sense!" He had been puzzled by this for a while, but Elijah's explanation cleared it up.
"If that's the case, it's easily solved. They were secretly married, so they just need to divorce quietly without letting Nola know." That way, he wouldn't need to trade that thing with Tarquin. The treasure he'd acquired from Gideon Bradford was something he cherished.
Elliot asked cautiously, "Elijah, if you had to choose between Daddy and Mommy, who would it be?" Elijah bit his lip, not wanting to answer; he wanted both! Elliot reframed his question, "Would you be willing to leave Tarquin and go with Mommy?"
Elijah shook his head. "Daddy's been really good to me. I don't want to m leave him. If I did, he'd be distraught.
Without the I Without me, his world would be just darkness, no light. Daddy... he's got it rough." Elijah wasn't usually one for many words, but he was sharp and understood the situation well.

Tarquin had been both a father and a mother to him, fighting tooth and m nail. Living with the Bradfords, surrounded by cutthroat competition, felt like being a lone lion on a dark mountain, surrounded by beasts eager to tear him apart. To Tarquin, Elijah was like a ray of sunshine, bringing light to his shadowed world.
Leaving with Elysia would extinguish that light, plunging Tarquin's world into utter darkness. They say it's lonely at the top, and Tarquin was standing at the pinnacle, utterly alone. Elijah felt for him, loved him too much to abandon him.
