Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1118

Blossom was nodding furiously, leading Evan back to the hospital room.

The cavalry had arrived, rendering their presence unnecessary. They needed to check on Elysia and Emmett immediately.

As expected, they found Elysia in tears, clutching Emmett close,

"I'm so sorry, Emmett, mommy lied to you, I'm so sorry..."

Blossom rushed forward,

"Are you out of your mind? You didn't tell Emmett the truth for his own good. You did nothing wrong!"

"Emmett, you mustn't be angry at your mom. She kept the truth from you so you could grow up carefree and happy, just like Elliot and Evan!"

"Blossom would stake her life on it—your mom is the person who loves you most in this world!"

Evan chimed in, equally frantic:

"Emmett, think about how mommy has treated you all these years. Even though you're not her flesh and blood, she truly loves you."

For little Emmett, this revelation was a bolt from the blue!

"I...I'm not mommy's biological child?"

Elysia, tears streaming down her face, apologized,

"I'm so sorry, Emmett. Mommy lied to you, for so many years, I'm so sorry..."

"Will mommy...will mommy abandon Emmett?"

Elysia was stunned for a moment before shaking her head vehemently,

"No! Mommy will never abandon Emmett!"

At that, Emmett burst into tears,

"Emmett doesn't want to be separated from mommy, don't leave Emmett, wahhh..."

The little guy was terrified, sobbing uncontrollably,

"Emmett only has one mommy, Emmett doesn't want another mommy, just you, wahhh, don't leave Emmett..."

Elysia, crying herself, held Emmett tight,

"Mommy will never leave Emmett, never! No one can take Emmett away from mommy!"

If push came to shove, she'd take Emmett and start anew somewhere remote!
