Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 277

When she didn't turn him down, he wanted to see Elliot. But after she did, he even wanted to meet Evan!

Elysia glared at him for a good while and ground her teeth,

"There's no way I'm letting you meet my kids!"

Tarquin couldn't fathom why, "Why not? Is there something wrong with your kids, or is it me?"

"It's you! There's something wrong with your whole family... Well, no, Elijah's fine. It's just you!"

Tarquin's face darkened, "Fine, if you won't bring them to me, I'll find them myself."

"You dare! I'll fight you tooth and nail!"

Tarquin just stared at her.

After a few seconds of locking eyes, Elysia softened, "You... give me the photo, and I'll take it back for them to see. I'll ask if they've seen this person for you!"

Although puzzled, Tarquin didn't insist further. After all, his goal wasn't really to meet her sons but to investigate this masked man.

"I'll send it to you later."

Elysia took a deep breath in relief.

Just as she calmed down, Elijah emerged from the bathroom. Instead of heading straight to his room, he wandered into the kitchen.

He was hungry.

Elysia knew it, so she quickly wiped her hands and brought out the oatmeal she had prepared in advance,

"Elijah, have some oatmeal to tide you over. You shouldn't eat too much right after waking up. After the oatmeal, we’ll have lunch."

Elijah responded with a cool 'hmm' and sat down to eat.

Tarquin glanced at his son and, grabbing a clove of garlic, sat opposite him, "Scared?"

Elijah looked up, puzzled.

"Those wolves today were unexpected. I've had Lowell look into it. Don't worry."

He didn't want his son to know the truth and get upset.

After hearing this, Elijah was even more confused, "What wolves?"
