Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 216

Chapter 216 

The man, cloaked in a long coat, slowly lifted his arm and pointed towards the brothers‘ side. “Kill! Kill!K!” 

The brothers quickly looked in the direction he was pointing and saw a person lying not too far away. 

This person seemed to be unconscious, not reacting at all. 

And, coincidentally, the spot where this person lay was exactly where Elliot was about to retrieve something! 

The item he needed was right underneath that person! 

Elliot, furrowing his brow and mustering his courage, walked over. Pretending to check on the person, he slickly grabbed the item into his palm. 

The masked figure said nothing, just watched him move the body lying on the ground and chuckled sinisterly. 

“She’s just passed out,” Elliot returned to Evan’s side. 

There were no streetlights around, and it was quite dark, Elliot couldn’t see her face clearly but could tell it was a woman. 

“Kill! Kill! Kill!” the masked figure murmured, suddenly pulling out a tablet to show them a video. 

It was a video of Elysia narrowly escaping being hit by a car! 

Elliot and Evan’s breaths synced, their expressions changing instantly. 

“She’s the murderer! Kill! Kill! Kill!” 

“What’s going on? Is it Mommy? But didn’t Blossom say Mommy went to a party with her?” Evan was panicking. 

“Calm down!” Elliot tried to stabilize his emotions and quickly checked his smartwatch. 

He swiftly found out the whole story about Allegra trying to run Elysia over with a car. 

IF 

“That’s Allegra?” 

The masked figure nodded. “Kill her! For revenge! Revenge!” 

Evan gritted his teeth. “She tried to kill Mom?” 

Elliot tapped a few more times on his smartwatch and then said, “Mom’s okay, don’t worry.” 

Evan, fists clenched, rushed towards Allegra, but Elliot pulled him back. 

“What are you doing?” 

“She dared to try and kill Mom! I’ll beat her to death!” 

“Don’t be rash!” 

Elliot scolded, looking up at the masked figure. 

With the mask on, Elliot couldn’t see his expression. 

After pondering for a few seconds, in front of the masked figure, Elliot picked up his smartwatch and dialed the police with a burner number. 

The masked figure tilted his head, seemingly puzzled by his action. 

Only when the sound of police sirens was heard did the masked figure turn and run, quickly disappearing from their sight. 

Elliot, frowning at the direction he left, dragged Evan and hid behind some bushes. 

Seeing the police arrive, he then quietly left with Evan. 

As soon as they left the park, Evan asked anxiously, “Elliot! What the heck is going on?” 

“I’m not entirely sure myself, but I know Mom is safe now. Let’s head home! We won’t tell Emmett and Mom about tonight. It would scare them.” 

“Aren’t we going to Mom now?” 

“Blossom is with Mom. Let’s get home and figure out tonight’s events first! I need to find out who that masked man is!” 

Placing Allegra on top of that item didn’t seem like a mere coincidence; it felt more like he knew about the deal between him and Gideon! 

Yet, he didn’t take the item, which was odd.
