Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 295

Elysia noticed Elijah's eagerness and asked with a smile, "Hey Elijah, want to help me make breakfast?"

Elijah nodded eagerly. Truth be told, he just wanted to be with her. As long as they were together, anything they did was fine by him.

Elysia thought for a moment, "How about you help me crack some eggs? We can make scrambled eggs."

"Okay!"

Elysia rolled up the little guy's sleeves, helped him wash his hands, and then moved a step stool over for him to stand on.

She fetched some eggs from the fridge, cracked them into a bowl, and showed Elijah how to mix the eggs.

Elijah followed intently, earning him praise from Elysia, "Well done!"

The little guy's cheeks flushed with pride, making him even more eager.

Meanwhile, Elysia cleaned some chives and carrots.

Tarquin, hearing the commotion, came out to see the duo busy in the kitchen, each doing their part.

Elysia kept smiling gently, talking softly to Elijah. Every now and then, Elijah would glance at her, his eyes sparkling.

The scene was so harmonious that Tarquin's first thought was how perfect it would be if Elysia were Elijah's biological mother!

But as soon as the thought crossed his mind, he was startled by it and turned away, heading to the bathroom.

Staring at his reflection, Tarquin wondered if he would let Elysia be Elijah's mother if the boy was okay with it. Could he really let go of Elijah's birth mother to be with Elysia?

His reflection darkened; the answer was clear. No matter what, he couldn't let go of Elijah's birth mother. He had promised to make her the happiest and most honored woman in the world!

He had chosen her, and only she would do!
