Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1105

Elysia and Tarquin rushed into the hospital, their hearts pounding, only to find out that Maria was still fighting for her life in the emergency room.

Claire was a wreck, sitting on the cold, sterile floor outside the emergency room, sobbing uncontrollably.

Hollis and Blossom stood by, brows furrowed, offering no words of comfort, their faces etched with concern and frustration.

As Elysia stepped out of the elevator with Tarquin by her side, the sight of Claire stopped her in her tracks. She trembled, rooted to the spot near the elevator, her heart racing with fear.

She hadn't done anything wrong!

She hadn't wronged this woman in any way!

Emmett wasn't stolen; he was found and taken in by her!

For over five years, she had poured all her love into raising Emmett, giving him every ounce of maternal affection she could muster.

She was guilt-free, facing this woman with nothing to hide!

In fact, this woman should be grateful for the life-saving care and love she had provided Emmett!

Yet, at this moment, fear engulfed her.

She feared that this woman would take Emmett away from her!

She couldn't bear the thought of parting with Emmett.

But the decision wasn't hers to make!

In front of this woman, she felt like a mistress facing the rightful wife.

She was the foster mother; this woman was the birth mother!

The custody of Emmett was in this woman's hands, and she felt powerless to fight or even argue for it!

This feeling of being overwhelmed and helpless made it hard for her to breathe.

It also stirred fear in her; she was afraid of this woman, she didn't want to face her, she wanted to escape!

She even began to regret bringing Emmett to Silver City!
