The driver suddenly realized that having her sit in the back seat with a drunk person might not be the safest option.
On the bumpy ride, every turn or brake made Tarquin lean uncontrollably towards Elysia. Each time, she would harshly shove him away, showing no "mercy" at all! Tarquin's head kept hitting either the window or the back of the front seat. The driver winced in sympathy, but Elysia remained indifferent.
Forget about what happened six years ago; just dealing with him tonight was infuriating enough. Feeling sorry for him? She thought it was generous enough not to punch him for all the trouble he caused!
Upon arriving at the Sunshine Community, Elysia gave the driver an extra tip to help get Tarquin upstairs. The place was filled with Tarquin's bodyguards, lurking in the shadows. They watched Elysia's fierce demeanor with a mix of awe and fear, particularly concerned for their drunken boss.
"Is the boss going to be okay? Why does Ms. Thorne seem especially terrifying tonight?"
"Should we check on him?"
"Who's going to do that? Not me! I'd sooner sneak into the Bradford family mansion and confront Gideon than mess with Ms. Thorne tonight."
The cab driver shared their sentiment and quickly left after dropping Tarquin at his doorstep.
Why do they say hell hath no fury like a woman scorned? Because when a woman gets mad, men better stay out of her way! Tonight, Elysia was the embodiment of that fury, radiating anger from every inch of her, even her hair seemed to bristle with indignation!
No sooner had the driver left than Elysia was ready to make her exit. She dumped Tarquin in the foyer and was about to leave. She had done her part by getting him home, but she wasn't going to stick around to care for him.
But just as she was heading out, Elijah suddenly appeared from the bedroom, "Mommy?!"
Elysia paused, instantly softening, "Elijah, why are you up? Did we wake you?"
He shook his head, his concern evident as he glanced at Tarquin sprawled on the floor.
Elysia explained, "He's alright, just drunk. Were you not asleep because of the noise, or have you been up all this time?"
