"I didn't get a clear look before he put it away."
Tarquin was silent.
The last time they met, the mysterious man had told him:
"You know, you have a daughter you don't know about. If you don't want anything bad happening to her, let me go, heh."
At that moment, Tarquin was shocked, filled with doubts.
That's why he didn't dare to make a move that day and let him go!
Since then, he had been pondering over it. It wasn't impossible for Elijah's mother to have had twins, but without any leads, he remained skeptical.
But now, he was starting to believe it might be true!
*Ding*—a new message alert.
A message from an anonymous number: [Are you satisfied with your New Year's gift? Heh.]
Tarquin's brow tightened. It was him!
He quickly replied to the message, but the sender had already deactivated the account.
Tarquin's breathing grew heavier.
The one trying to harm Elijah was this mysterious man!
Could his daughter actually be his own?!
Was he really a father to a daughter he never knew existed???
Tarquin held his breath, a mix of shock and joy, excitement and anxiety!
If he really had a daughter, if Elijah really had a sister, it would be a cause for celebration!
But his daughter not being by his side, potentially in the hands of this mysterious man, was a major concern!
Tarquin tried to calm down and analyze the situation.
If the mysterious man wasn't lying, then this man's daughter could very well be his own!
Years ago, the mysterious man had taken Elijah and his sibling from their mother, sending Elijah to him but keeping the daughter for himself.
What was his purpose?
If he took the daughter, it must have been to threaten him, but why was he so concerned about his "darling"?
Could it be that the "darling" was the mysterious man's own biological daughter, and his own daughter was raised somewhere else?
Tarquin racked his brain but couldn't figure out the mysterious man's intentions, growing frustrated.
His emotions running high, Axel noticed something was off, "Tarquin?"
