Chapter 142
If the triplets grow up to approach life with the szest as Blossom, she'd be over the moon.
Positive, optimistic, living life to the fullest.
“Almost nap time, you heading over to check on them?” Blossom asked.
Elysia pondered for a moment. “Nah, I'll let them get used to school. No need forto disturb their routine.”
“Alright then, wait for me. We'll grab lunch together. It's about that time.”
“You can go out for lunch?”
“Sure, today | don’t have to sit with the kids during nap time. We've got other teachers on duty. I just need to be
back by 1:30,”
“Okay.”

They left the kindergarten and didn’t have to walk far to find a bustling food street nearby.
Skewers, a mutual favorite.
Chatting and eating, Blossom asked, “Did you leave early today to see that wild man?”
“Yeah, and lettell you, if you saw Elijah, you'd be stunned. He's the spitting image of Evan! If | hadn't been
away from Jindale City when | gave birth, and that my kids never would've ended up with him, | would think
Elijah’s mine. To be honest, | can’t stand that wild man, but when | see Elijah, my heart aches, especially when
he throws those tantrums and breaks things. It’s pitiful.”
Blossom suggested, “Maybe it's ‘cause he looks like him. You see Elijah and you're reminded of Evan.”
“Yeah, that’s what | think too.”
“Are you going to be hanging around their place for a while now?”
Elysia shook her head.
“Not sure. We didn’t part on great terms today, no telling if he'll want to see me
“What happened? Did he give you a hard time?”
Elysia thought it over and said, “Elijah’s condition is more serious than Corbin’s. | told you last night. Both of
them have bipolar disorder, but the causes are different. Corbin was kidnapped as a child and has psychological
trauma, but Elijah’s condition stems from an excessive longing for his mother. Corbin’s easier to deal with. Every
year there are similar cases, and the medical field has a pretty solid treatment plan for these kids. But Elijah’s
different. A psychological disorder caused by an obsession with his mother? That's new to
a,
round it. So many
kids grow up in a single-parent Blossom remarked, “When you toldlast night, | couldn't wrap my head
household, seven orphans, and you don’t hear about them getting sick from missing someone too much.

“Yeah, rare, but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist.”
Blossom asked, “So the kid's fixated on his mother. Where is she?”
“No clue. The wild man said she vanished after giving birth to Elijah and hasn't been seen since.”
“She took off after having the baby? Why? Don’t tellshe was driven away by that wild man.”
“Who knows? But with his icy demeanor, it’s a wonder he can keep anyone around at all. Always looks like
someone owes him a fortune. Elijah’s mom must've been quite the woman-to date that guy and have his kid.
Respect!”
Blossom said, “You tellhe’s handsand loaded, so why would a woman run off? There's gotta be
something wrong with him!”
“| feel the sway. It's just Elijah | feel sorry for. | haven't had the chance to talk to him yet. | don’t even know
if his illness really comes from being too attached to his mother.”
