Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1183

At ten o'clock at night, Tarquin's phone buzzed with urgency. It was Keaton calling!

Everyone in the room turned their eyes to Tarquin, their hearts pounding in anticipation.

Tarquin answered, “How did it go?”

“We got her out, but she’s not quite herself. Seems like she’s been through a lot.”

“Get her to the hospital right away! Benjamin Lawson is waiting there, I’ve made all the arrangements.”

“Alright, see you at the hospital!”

Elysia’s eyes welled up with tears, and she let out a shaky breath, her body trembling with relief.

Winona was curled up in the corner of the hospital room, looking scared and vulnerable. A young, pretty nurse was gently trying to calm her down.

Caroline was the first to burst into the room. Seeing her daughter, her heart shattered.

“Winona!”

At the sound of her mother’s voice, Winona’s head snapped up, her eyes wide with disbelief as she looked at Caroline.

Even in her current state, with her frail and weary appearance, Winona's striking beauty was evident. Her allure was different from Elysia’s gentle and graceful charm; Winona had a commanding presence, the kind of leading lady you’d find in a bestselling romance novel, with features so sharp they seemed to demand respect.

Caroline rushed over and enveloped her in a hug.

“Winona! My baby girl, oh thank God we found you! You’ve been through so much, oh my darling…”

Winona’s recognition of Caroline brought tears to her eyes, “Mom—”
