Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1017

Evan shot Larry a glare that could freeze hell over!

That backstabber, just you wait, I'll come for you later!

Evan turned his attention back to Clayton, his curiosity piqued.

"Grandpa, who was that bespectacled Mr. Handsome just now?"

Clayton replied with a gentle tone,

"Oh, him? He's pretty much family. You see, because of certain reasons, I couldn't always be there for your grandma over the years, and Mr. Handsome has been looking after her. I consider him like a son; he's been a great help."

Clayton had already included Larry in his will, appreciating his support for Pamela and their emotional bond.

Evan frowned, his expression a mix of emotions as he looked at his grandfather.

Oh, grandpa, you're too trusting, letting your heart lead too much!

Some people just don't appreciate kindness, born with a streak of ingratitude!

Evan, thinking of the bigger picture, didn't confront Larry right away, choosing instead to cheer up his grandma.

...

After Larry left the main house, Helen immediately met him in secret.

"Did she drink the soup?"

Larry, annoyed, "A wild child knocked it over!"

"Wild child? The one that popped up this morning?"

"Yeah, I was just bringing the soup in with a servant when the kid kicked me, and down I went, soup and all."

Helen frowned, "On purpose?!"

"Absolutely on purpose! If he hadn't tripped me, I wouldn't have fallen, and the soup wouldn't have spilled."

"Does this kid have some sort of backing?"
