Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 160

Chapter 160 

Nola was fuming, and she hatched a plan to teach Elysia a lesson through Oriana’s unwitting help

She also intended to capture evidence of Elysia conspiring against Gage, and then confront Tarquin with it, demanding he take her 

side

After Tarquin read the message, he didn’t utter a word, just took a long drag on his cigarette

Keaton, sensing Tarquin’s irritation, kept quiet too, sharing a silent smoke

A little later, Benjamín came to call them, Ms. Thome wasn’t hurt. She’s just shaken up. She’s awake now.” 

༑ 

A that, Tarquin stubbed out his cigarette and hurried to the hospital room

Elysia was propped up in her bed, staring out the window in a daze. Seeing Tarquin, she burst out, Get out! Just get out!” 

Tarquin scowled, I didn’t even do anything to you!” 

But Elysia, trembling with rage, tossed a vase at him, shouting, Get out, I can’t stand the sight of you! Go away-” 

She couldn’t contain her fury. Just the sight of him infuriated her

It annoyed her

It reminded her of that night’s madness and terror

Benjamin quickly pulled Tarquin out of the room and said, Ms. Thomne just woke up; she can’t be agitated. What did you do to her to make her react like this?” 

Tarquin felt wronged

I didn’t do anything! No, wait, I saved her! That’s right, I saved her, for heaven’s sake!

Huh? If you saved her, why is she so hostile towards you?” 

How should I know?!Tarquin roared

Benjamin flinched and tried to calm him down, Take a breath, man. Ms. Thome probably mistook you for one of those jerks that hurt her.” 

But she was awake when I saved her!” 

Really? That’s odd. She should be grateful to see you

He didn’t need her to weep with gratitude; if she could just appreciate what he did and take good care of Elijah, that would be enough

But instead… 

No good deed goes unpunished!Tarquin bellowed, storming out of the hospital and leaving Elysia behind
