Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 133

Chapter 133 

Tarquin suddenly lifted his lashes to look at Elysla. 

“…I heard you were studying design at Jindale University before, nothing to do with medicine. How come you suddenly know about medical stuff?” 

Elysia was taken aback. “You’ve been looking into me?” 

Tarquin held her gaze, blatantly admitting it without a hint of gullt. 

Elysia’s heart leaped to her throat. 

“What all did you find out?” 

“Got something to hide?” 

Of course, she did! She feared he would discover the truth about the kids! 

“You… you checked on my kids, too?” 

Tarquin knew she was nervous about her children. This time, he didn’t use them to provoke her. “No.” 

“For real?” 

Tarquin gave her a look. “Do you want me to check?” 

“No! They’re just kids. Why would you look into them? I… I’m just afraid you might hurt them, given your history!” 

She purposefully brought up yesterday’s incident at the mall to divert his attention. 

Tarquin frowned. “Yesterday was an accident. I was after you, not your son. I didn’t hurt him.” 

The fact that he could be so frank about targeting her! 

Elysia glared at him, taking a silent, deep breath, relieved that he hadn’t looked into the kids. 

The next second, she complained, “Do you have a problem? Why are you snooping around me? You know that’s an invasion of privacy, right?” 

Tarquin retorted, “If you’ve got nothing to hide, you wouldn’t fear an investigation.” 

“What’s there to hide? I’ve never broken the law!” 

“Dropping out of school to get married, for one. And then there’s the infidelity during marriage.” 

Elysia’s breathing halted, her cheeks flushed. 

And a second later, her eyes brimmed with tears. She stared at Tarquin, her gaze burning into him, tears rolling in her eyes, her breath becoming heavier. 

Was she crazy? Was getting married by her own choice? 

Was the infidelity by her own choice? 

Being forced into marriage wasn’t his fault, but whose fault was the infidelity?

Chapter 133 

Elysia clenched her fists, biting her lip, glaring at Tarquin…rage boiling up within her… 

Tarquin noticed her emotional shift, his face darkening. 

“I only answered because you asked. Your past messes are none of my business, but while you’re taking care of Elijah, you need to stay clean. Don’t corrupt him.” 

Elysia looked at him, feeling swallowed up by her own misery. 

Anyone could blame her, but he had no right! 

He had shattered her virtue and ruined her life! 

And now he had the audacity to warn her to stay clean! 

“You’re not human!” 

After hurling the accusation, Elysia stormed out of the car, slamming the door behind her, and marched towards the neighborhood entrance against the biting wind.
