She was worried that the Newsom family was being watched by Zane, so she didn't dare to call and ask. Instead, Elysia slipped into the bathroom and sent a quick text to Tarquin.
"Has Winona come back yet?"
Tarquin replied almost instantly, "No, he came back alone."
Elysia felt a pang of disappointment but understood. If Zane had brought Winona back with him, it would have raised suspicions. Zane was smart enough to avoid that.
Tarquin sent another message to reassure her, "Don't worry, he's back. Winona will be too, soon enough. When you see him, don't lose your head. I'm on my way to the Newsom family."
"Okay!"
Elysia took a deep breath, put her phone away, and stepped out of the bathroom to continue keeping Caroline company.
Ridley was out, spending time with a supposed "illegitimate daughter" to make the act convincing. It was all a facade—Tamsin, Baby's bodyguard, was playing the part. Emmett had even given her a makeover to resemble Winona.
Before Zane's return, a DNA test had been faked to show that Tamsin and Ridley were father and daughter. Tarquin had tampered with the results.
Elliot and Evan were also at the Newsom family house, acting as Elysia’s little bodyguards. They had come with her.
More than half an hour later, Zane arrived.
Even though Elysia had mentally prepared herself, seeing Zane made her seethe with anger. She wanted to storm over and slap him hard, grab him by the collar, and demand answers.
Where had he hidden Winona? Why was he treating her so cruelly? The Newsom family and Winona had been nothing but kind to him. How could he do something so despicable? Did he even have a heart?
