Chapter 900
But this didn't mean Keith was suddenly on their side, ready to join the ranks and fight the good fight together.
Because of Baby.
Baby was Tarquin's flesh and blood, his only daughter. There was no way he'd let Keith have her!
And Keith wasn't about to step aside either. After more than five years of daily interactions, he had formed a deep bond with Baby.
That was the irreconcilable difference between him and Keith!
As long as there was friction between Keith and him, there was a chance Keith would continue to collaborate with the shadowy figure to take him down.
Because if something happened to him, no one would compete with Keith for Baby.
The shadowy figure surely realized this too, so for now, he wouldn't touch Keith, just wait and see.
It all depended on Keith's next move.
Tarquin didn't delve into the details with the kids, simply saying,
"Don't worry about Keith's safety. The shadowy figure has invested too many years in him to simply eliminate him now."
After a pause, he added,
"I'll keep an eye on Keith and the shadowy figure. Don't rush things. Keith is bound to make a big move soon. Trust me, it won't be long before we uncover the shadowy figure.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Focus on your mom for now. Baby was just taken away by Keith again, and she must be upset. Spend time with her, try to cheer her up."
The three little ones nodded obediently.
After all, their mom was more important than any shadowy figure!
When Tarquin and his sons got home, Elysia and Emmett were video chatting with Baby.
Emmett was talking about Baby's favorite dish, steak, and the siblings were having a lively chat. Elysia sat quietly by, her gaze fixed on the screen, filled with love and longing for Baby.
Though she was smiling, there was an unmistakable sadness in her eyes.
She had just gotten her daughter back, yet they couldn't be together all the time, and it pained her.
Seeing her like this, Tarquin and his sons felt deeply sympathetic.
Elysia's mood wouldn't improve until Baby was fully back with them.
The three boys tried to lighten the mood, greeting Elysia and Baby with a cheerful, "Hey, Mom, hey, Baby!"
Tarquin also tried to put on a happy face and joined in.
He affectionately ruffled Elysia's hair before greeting Baby on the screen.
Baby was thrilled to see them, her face lighting up with joy.
Elysia stepped aside to give the kids space to talk to Baby.
She asked Tarquin, "With the rain pouring like this, where did you take them?"
Seeing her tired look, Tarquin tenderly tucked a stray hair behind her ear,
"Just out for a bit. When did you wake up?"
"Just before I called you."
Elysia had woken to find heavy rain outside and noticed that Tarquin and the kids weren't home, which worried her, prompting her to call Tarquin.
By that time, Tarquin and the boys were almost home.
Looking out at the rain, Elysia's face was filled with sorrow,
"I wonder if it'll rain all night?"
Tarquin knew she was worried about Baby and reassured her,
"Don't worry, Tamsin's with her. Tamsin will stay with Baby tonight."
Elysia's eyes brimmed with tears, as if she might start crying at any moment.
Holding her tight, Tarquin comforted her with a gentle embrace, his voice soothing,
"Elysia, just a little longer. Trust me, Baby will be back with us very soon!"
Elysia quickly asked, "Have you thought of a plan?"
"Yeah, don't worry. I've got it covered."
