Keaton chuckled, shaking her head with a playful smirk. “So, spill the beans, what’s your mal agenda here?”
Tarquin remained silent Keaton ventured a guess. Don’t tell me you’re worried about blowing your cover because someone might fall for you? Don’t flatter yourself, buddy. Elysia told me today that she’s just not that into you”
Tarquin’s expression dark ened “What’s she telling you about me for?
She asked me to et up a meeting with you
“Excuse me?”
“You heard me right. She specifically said Tarquin, not Tarin!”
“And why does she want to meet me?”
“Beats me. I asked, but she was all hush–hush about it. Just said it was something important.”
Tarquin took a drag of his cigarette, deep in thought. What on earth could Elysia possibly want with him?
“Did you guys have a past encounter or something?”
Without hesitation, Tarquin shook his head. Tve looked into it, nothing
That’s just weird then She doesn’t know you, so what’s this all about?”
Tarquin just shrugged in silence
“If you go to this meeting, you’re basically outing yourself, you know?”
Tarquin puffed on his cigarette in silence for a long moment before finally speaking up, “Set it up!”
“Huh? You’re actually going?”
“Yeah!”
“Are you sure? N
Not womed about exposing yourself?”
“Enough with the yapping!”
“Ha! You “Keaton’s teasing was cut short by a call from Jessamine.
His face went pale.
“This is it. This gotta be about Oriana and Elysia’s mess.”
Tarquin raised an eyebrow, a sarcastic glint in his eyes. “Looks like karma’s knocking.”
Keaton just stared at his phone in dread.
Soon enough, Elysia got the message that Tarquin agreed to meet her tomorrow at noon.
“Really? Elysia was ecstatic
“Yeah, totally. So, where’s it gonna be? Your call or his?”
Im fine with anything, I follow his lead.”
“Okay, I’ll check with him and send you the details as soon as we’ve got it pinned down.”
“Thanks, Mr. Huber‘
Keaton was almost bashful. “No need to th

“Uh, sure.”
thank me, but hey… if my sister calls you, could you put in a good word for me? I honestly
After hanging up, Elysia was buzzing with excitement. She’d see Tarquin tomorrow at noon. If she could just get to him, she was confident she could persuade him to divorce!
With the divorce, she could finally register her kids, and put all this drama behind her.
Elysia, in high spirits, processed her hospital discharge. She wasn’t really hurt, it was just a shock to the system. Now that she had steadied her mind, she was ready to turn the page.
Standing at the hospital’s entrance, she hailed a cab, planning to hit the grocery store.
Since Elijah loved her cooking, she’d make a feast tonight, especially since she had scored the meeting with Tarquin – a cause for celebration
She called Blossom and shared the good news about her discharge, asking what she and the kids fancied for dinner so she could pick up the groceries.
11-21
“How come you’re out already?” Blossom asked.
1 was fine, honestly. You didn’t tell the kids, did you?”
“As you wished, not a word. They’re in the living room, and I’m in the bedroom.
“Good. Every cloud has a silver lining, right? I’ve nailed the situation with my husband!”
“That so? Keaton came through?”
“Yeah, all set for tomorrow noon.
“Keaton’s quick on his feet. This calls for a little celebration, doesn’t it? How about I bring the little trio and we meet up?”
“Sounds good, let’s head to Happy Mart.”
“Need a lift?
“No need. You bring the kids, and I’ll cab it from the hospital.”
“Alrighty, kids, gear up! We’re off to Happy Mart to meet your mommy.”
“Mommy’s at Happy Mart? I thought you said Mommy might not come home tonight because of some errand?” The three little ones babbled excitedly, vying for answers.
