Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 118

Chapter 118 

“It proves that the encounter between Corbin and I is fate, right Corbin?” 

“Yes… fate.” 

Elysia softly caressed his cheek. Turning to Jessamine, she said, “I need a moment alone with Corbin, if that’s okay with you?” 

“Of course, of course, you two chat. I’ll just be outside, right by the door. If you need me, just holler.” 

“Okay.” 

Once Jessamine had left, Elysia waved her hand in front of Corbin’s eyes and started counting on her fingers, “Corbin, look at my hand. Let’s count together, one, two, three, four, five…” 

With a snap of her fingers, Corbin suddenly passed out. 

Twenty minutes later, Elysia emerged from the hospital room. 

Jessamine immediately asked, “How is he? Is Corbin doing better? Can we take him home?” 

“Yes, I just hypnotized Corbin to take a peek inside his mind. His inner world has changed a lot; there’s sunshine, green fields, and cats. Did he used to like cats?” 

Jessamine felt a pang in her heart, “…He did. He used to have one, and it was while looking for that cat that he was kidnapped. We lost both, the cat and our peace.”

“I understand. Just seeing him improve is a blessing. We had lost hope before you came along. 

Elysia, you’ve been an angel to the Denton family. I don’t know how I could ever thank you enough, but if you ever face any difficulties, you must let me know.” 

“There’s no need for such formality. You helped me out today at the mall, and I’m grateful for that.” 

Jessamine sniffled a bit, “It’s not the same. I… I won’t fuss over thanking you properly. Just know this, from now on, you’re like a sister to me. And if anyone dares to cross you, they’ll have to answer to me first!” 

Elysia smiled and said nothing. 

“How about dinner tonight together?” Elysia was about to decline when Jessamine interjected, 

“It’s not just out of gratitude that I want to invite you for dinner. Ever since Corbin’s incident, he hasn’t stepped out. He’s been shuttling between home and the hospital. 

I was thinking, since you’re here, it might do him good to get some fresh air, to take that brave first step, right? If you weren’t here, he definitely wouldn’t want to go out, and we wouldn’t dare to take

him.” 

Unable to refuse, Elysia agreed. 

While Corbin was still unconscious, she called Blossom to talk about dinner.
