"Alright, I''m with you."


    The couple spent the entire night in the hospital for a little girl with no blood rtion to them.


    As dawn broke, Tarquin received a call from Hollis.


    There was a snag in wrapping up the excavation project, and Hollis couldn''t handle it alone. He needed Tarquin''s help.


    Axel was off with Folly and yton, transporting artifacts, while Lowell was babysitting at the hotel.


    Tarquin let Elysia know before heading out himself.


    Elysia stayed at the hospital, keepingpany with Maria.


    They thought that with Cecil''s crimes brought to light, this chapter was finally closed.


    But then...


    Someone decided to stir the pot again for the sake of keeping the drama alive and pulling in more views, making Emmett the topic!


    People said Emmett was a curse. His appearance marked the death of his


    mother, his father''s arrest, and his sister''s uncertain fate.


    Tragedy followed him, they imed, he was bad luck incarnate!


    Others argued, what good was Emmett''s talent when he had such a father? Growing up, he''d be no better, a waste of potential!


    Some went further, iming bad seeds ran in the family. Cecil was scum, and Emmett was bound to be just as rotten, if not worse.


    They even suggested sending Emmett off to a juvenile center, to have the state keep an eye on him, preventing him from evolving into a high-IQ criminal.


    Elysia was furious upon seeing these reports.


    She couldn''t fathom how people could nder a child so viciously. Didn''t they fear karma?


    Then, at a little past seven in the morning, disaster struck Emmett!


    Because they hadn''t figured out how to exin ire and Maria''s situation to Emmett, they had kept it from him.


    He was still in the dark.


    Like always, Emmett came to the hospital to bring breakfast for Elysia and Blossom.


    But as soon as he stepped out of the car, he was swarmed by the media waiting outside.


    With cameras and mics pointed at a child, they bombarded him with questions, "Emmett, how do you feel about your biological mother''s death? Are you sad?" "Emmett, has anyone been keeping you from returning to the White family, iming your heritage?"


    "Do you have a liking for blood and violence, Emmett? Do you think you''re like your biological father?"


    "Can you share your thoughts on your biological parents, Emmett?"


    Emmett, not used to such attention, broke down crying on the spot.


    Yet, the media didn''t let up, continuing to sh their cameras at Emmett.


    They were pushing for some explosive answers from Emmett to fuel their headlines and profit from the drama!


    Upon hearing about this, Elysia rushed downstairs!


    When she burst out of the hospital, Emmett was encircled by the media, crying in


    the arms of a bodyguard.


    Given the ongoing saga with


    Emmett and not wanting to stir

    The area was swarmed with reporters.


    Worried about causing a scene and negatively impacting Emmett and Elysia, they could only stand guard around Emmett, ready to strike back if anyone dared to make a move.


    But the media''s weapons were words, not actions.


    With Emmett in tears, the reporters kept firing questions.


    Grinding her teeth in anger, Elysia shouted, "Emmett!"


    Seeing her Emmett cried even harder,

    he wailed,
