"Is there anything that could make him happy?"
Elysia choked on her words, recognizing the challenge in the question.
Lately, there hadn't been much to boost Elijah's spirits. Despite her long tenure as his caretaker, she hadn't once seen him crack a smile.
In an effort to divert Tarquin's attention, Elysia racked her brain and then said, "You could talk to him about White; he's quite taken with our Evan's White."
Tarquin didn't object, instead asking, "Where did White come from?"
"What?"
"I'd like to get one for Elijah."
"White wasn't bought!"
"Then where did it come from?"
Elysia, with eyes wide, bluffed, "...Found it by chance in the village."
Tarquin didn't suspect a thing, "Convince your son to sell White to Elijah. Name your price."
Elysia shot him a cold look, "Do you think everything has a price tag?! Money isn't everything, you..."
"Five hundred thousand."
Elysia blinked, "How much?"
"Five hundred thousand. Plus, I'll forgive the debt of the 5 million that you owe me, as long as your son gives White to Elijah."
A son's happiness is priceless, and he could see that Elijah genuinely liked White. It was rare for Elijah to take a liking to anything, and he was keen on making the purchase happen.
Elysia's eyes widened – that was 5 million plus five hundred thousand!
With such an offer, she found it hard to refuse!
But White was Evan's beloved. She couldn't possibly trade his happiness for money, could she? That would make her the worst kind of mother!
