Chapter 234
Tarquin felt like he was about to erupt, the frustration boiling inside him was nearly uncontrollable.
“Can’t we just have a normal conversation? I didn’t come here to fight.”
Elysia, on the other hand, wasn’t even trying to keep her cool.
“Who’s fighting with you? Do I know you that well that I need to argue? Get over yourself!”
“You… I come here to say thanks, ant! this is how you treat me?”
“Who thanks someone with that attitude? You look like you’re here to pick a fight! If you didn’t want to come, you shouldn’t have bothered!”
*Elysia!”
*Jerk!*
His voice was loud, but Elysia’s was even louder!
He called her by her name, but she called him a jerk!
Bring it on!
Tarquin’s breathing became erratic with anger, “What did you call me? You are just…
He tried to speak but was cut off by Elysia again, “Completely unreasonable, right? That’s me, unreasonable. What are you gonna do about it?” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
“Elysia!”
“Don’t shout my name! If you can’t handle it, then leave! Now! Stop annoying me!”
Tarquin was so furious that he was lost for words.
Oh my god!
Sharp–tongued Elysia, victorious!
The usually commanding, assertive, and dignified Mr. Bradford, lost an argument!
Tarquin had never felt this humiliated in his life. Even those in the Bradford family, who spent their days plotting against him, had never dared to be this brazen in his presence!
His pride couldn’t take it, and he thought about just walking away and never dealing with this infuriating woman again!
But the thought of his son made him bite his lip hard, clench his jaw, and glare at her!
Glaring fiercely!
For the sake of his son, he endured!
Through gritted teeth, Tarquin said, “You think, if it wasn’t for Elijah asking me to come, I would have bothered?”
Never in a million years!
Elysia completely redefined his understanding of women. He had seen all types of women, but never one

like her! Belligerent, illogical, unreasonable!
Hearing this, Elysia’s demeanor softened a bit. “Elijah asked you to come?”
Tarquin scowled. “Elijah wants to see you!
“What? Say that again?”
“I said Elijah wants to see you.”
Elysia’s eyes widened in disbelief, blinking rapidly as she asked, “Elijah wants to see me?”
“Yeah!”
“Why would he suddenly want to see me? I thought he was annoyed by me.”
Before Tarquin could respond, the sounds of little footsteps approached from outside,“Mommy will be so happy to see us back early, wonder what she’s up to?”
“Shh, keep it down, let’s surprise her.”
The door unlocked and swung open.
Elysia leaped from the sofa, panic–stricken! Without thinking, she grabbed his arm and dragged him into the nearest bedroom.
Before they could even shut the bedroom door, the little ones burst in, “Mommy! We are back early! Surprise or what?”
Surprise? More like a total shoc
She was on the verge of a heart attack!
In a frenzy, Elysia pulled open a closet door and shoved him inside! It wasn’t until the closet door was closed that she realized she was in there with him.
By the time she thought about leaving, it was too late; Evan had already run into the room.
“Mommy!”
