After listening to the whole story, Blossom was both furious and heartbroken, her eyes reddening with
emotion.
“Damn it, Oriana has the nerve to pull this crap? We’re suing her, let her rot in jail! And that guy, that…
that jerk. Okay, so he helped you out this time, but it doesn’t erase what he did to you before! We’ll sue
him too! They think they’re above thew? Well, they’re not! I’m calling my folks right now to get us a
lawyer. We’re not letting them get away with this!”
Blossom started fumbling for her phone, tears choking her voice, but Elysia stopped her,
“Wait, let’s not be hasty.”
“What do you mean? You don’t want to sue them?”
Elysia sniffled, “I’ve already called the police. Oriana will get what’sing to her. Thew will handle
it.”
“And what about… the jerk?”
“I don’t want anything to do with him anymore. I want a divorce with my husband, and I want out, fast!”
Just this morning, she was all excited, making breakfast for Elijah, braving the snowstorm to deliver it to
Sunshine Community. She wasn’t in a hurry to leave anymore.
But now, she couldn’t stand to stay another second. She wanted out!
More than getting back at Oriana or dealing with the jerk, she wanted to leave now!
“But isn’t your husband refusing to divorce? He won’t even meet with you. How can you divorce him?
Will you just leave without it?”
Elysia shook her head and said, “No, I need to be divorced before I go.”
“But… do you have any ideas?”
Elysia thought hard, frowning. “Keaton!”
“Huh? What’s the n?”
Elysia exined, “Oriana is his ex, and even though they’re broken up, this mess started because of
him. If Jessamine finds out, she’ll tear him a new one. I can use this to talk to him… Plus, isn’t he close
with my husband? I’lly it out for him. If he can get my husband to divorce me, I’ll drop today’s
incident.”
Blossom pondered for a moment and said, “It sounds like it might work, but who knows if it’ll be
sessful.”
“Sess or not, we’ve got to try! I need this divorce, and fast!”
While Elysia was plotting her divorce, Tarquin had already arrived at the ter family residence.
Donovan ter was at the office when he heard Tarquin wasing, so he rushed home.
He greeted Tarquin with more warmth than he would his own father, “Tarquin, you should have told me
you wereing; I would have waited for you at home instead of making you wait here.”
Tarquin was cool andposed as he said, “No need. I’m here for N, and to check in on Gage while
I’m at it.”
Donovan, an old fox, could tell something was off with Tarquin and started to panic.
He forced a smile, “N… Did she upset you again?”
Tarquin didn’t bite.
Donovan’s eyelids twitched madly as he quickly said. “I’ve spoiled her rotten, to the point where she
dares to upset you! She’s just taking advantage of being Elijah’s lifesaver, that’s why she’s acting so
entitled around you. Just wait until she gets back; I’ll set her straight!” In criticizing N, Donovan was
actually reminding Tarquin that N was Elijah’s lifesaver.
Tarquin could read between the lines. He didn’t respond and just waited with a stern face for N.
Donovan swallowed nervously and reached for his phone to call N.
Just then, N arrived, bursting through the door and starting to rant.
