Chapter 59
But he already left what now?”
End that man, he’s got to know the old man, Elysia said with determination.
But how are you going to explain? That old man clearly meant that man knew nothing about his appointment with you today.”
1 can’t just take this money without a good reason. Whatever is going on between them, they can sort it out. I don’t want to be dragged into their mess.”
Blossom nodded earnestly, “Makes sense. Let’s go, I’ll come with you.”
“No, you stay. I need to stop by the hospital to return the money, and then I have to hit the county clerk’s office for a divorce. I’ll catch up with you once I’m done.”
“Alright, then. Just give me the kids address. I’ll go check on the little rascals.”
Mentioning the kids brought a smile to Elysia’s face.
She passed the address to Blossom. They left the coffee shop together, heading toward the hospital
On the way, Blossom, bubbling with excitement, asked her, “Quick, tell me what each of the little rascals likes. I’ve got to make a killer first impression, so they’ll be thrilled to have
me as their godmother.”
The children hadn’t even spoken yet, and here she was, appointing herself godmother.
Bysia chuckled and said, “They all love a pretty face, you won’t need to bring anything to
win them over.”
That won’t do! Godmothering is a serious business. I’ve got to show my sincerity, make a heartfelt gesture.”
Elysia laughed and filled her in, Elliot’s into books, Evan loves his toys, and Emmett likes all things trendy, like colognes or creative clothing.”
Blossom was surprised. ‘Emmett’s into cologne already?”
“Yeah, don’t underestimate Emmett. You’re in for a surprise when you meet him.”
Blossom’s eyes twinkled with anticipation.
They arrived at the hospital entrance, and Elysia got out of the car.
“If anything comes up, give me a ring. I’m on call for you,” Blossom said.
“Got it. Now off you go, and drive safe.”
“Will do, bye!”

Watching Blossom drive away, Elysia felt a warm glow inside,
Even after all these years, their friendship hadn’t changed a bit.
Blossom was still the same lovable goofball, both endearing and heartwarming.
Having someone to share your troubles with is so important. For years, Elysia had kept things bottled up inside. After all, the kids were too young to be burdened with her worries, and she didn’t want to share her unhappiness with them. Her heart–to–heart with Blossom had left her feeling utterly relaxed as if she had shaken off all the weight from her shoulders.
The only regret was that her marriage to Tarquin was a secret; Blossom didn’t know her husband was Tarquin. Otherwise, she could have been even more open.
Once Blossom’s car was out of sight, Elysia, with her backpack slung over her shoulder, walked into the hospital.
Elijah was still resting, and Tarquin gave her a cold glance.
Elysia’s heart skipped a beat; his look was colder than when they’d first met. She was puzzled, wondering what she’d done to upset him now.
And why was he so fickle?
At first, he disliked her, which she got – Evan had wrecked his luxury car.
Then, out of the blue, he turned all sweet on her yesterday.
But after just one day of tenderness, he was back to being cold as ice, even more so than before.
Why was that?
Elysia was clueless about the paternity test and the drama between Tarquin and the Bradfords. She just thought this man was incomprehensible, flipping moods faster than flipping pages in a book.
Not dwelling on his erratic emotions, she cleared her throat to speak.
