Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1102

Mom could only watch, helpless and heartbroken, as her son called another woman "mom." She watched as he grew closer to this stranger, and even... defended her over his own mother. "He's my flesh and blood, my baby," she sobbed.

"Do I have a little brother?"

"Yes, your own brother!"

"Why didn't Mom bring my brother back?"

"I... I... I was scared. Scared that if I did, your father would just sell him off again, to some horrible place where he would suffer!"

"Was my brother sold by Dad?"

"Yes! Sold by him! That liar, it's all his fault!"

A fierce light flashed in Claire's eyes as she thought about it, her whole body trembling with rage.

Wiping away her tears, she picked up her daughter and left.

Before long, they stood in front of a dilapidated, abandoned bar.

Claire would have never dared to come here before, but today, blinded by fury, she acted without thinking.

As she attempted to enter, two burly men blocked her way. "What do you want?"

"I'm looking for Cecil White! Cecil! I'm his wife!"

"We don't care who you are. Got any money? Show us your cash. No money, no entry. Beat it!"

Claire's pockets were empty. She had just gotten her paycheck yesterday, and after a trip to the doctor and paying for a DNA test, she was broke. Even her only gold necklace had been snatched by Cecil.

When Claire tried to push past them, the men shoved her back, kicking her. "Crazy lady, looking for trouble? Get lost!"

Unable to enter, Claire sat on the ground, holding her daughter, both crying,

"Cecil, you bastard! Come out! You're not human, you deceived me, you bastard..."
