Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 320

Here's the revised translation considering language and cultural nuances:

---

However, darkness still enveloped everything within sight!

Not a soul to be seen!

Elysia was on high alert, a wave of fear washing over her.

Though she could hear someone, there was no one in sight. Her mind immediately jumped to the notion of a ghost... disheveled hair, ghastly pale face, floating mid-air, drifting aimlessly.

"Who's there? Who's calling me?!"

All around her was dead silent, no response. Elysia tried to muster courage with a fierce tone,

"Quit playing games, show yourself! Or I'll scream for help!"

The pleasant male voice echoed again, closer this time, "Elysia, what a lovely name, suits you perfectly! I like it!"

Still, she could see no one!

Elysia's heart pounded, her skin crawled,

"Who are you?! Show yourself!"

It was as if the stranger hadn't heard her, his voice soft, asking,

"Afraid he'll recognize your son?"

Elysia froze, "What?!"

Ignoring her question, he offered, "I can help you."

"...Help with what?!"

"I can help keep this secret forever, ensure he never discovers your secret."

Something clicked in Elysia's mind, her heartbeat skyrocketed, "I have no secrets!"

"Oh? Isn't your child his as well? How's that not a secret?"

Elysia gasped, eyes wide in shock, "You!!!"

The man chuckled,

"Curious how I know? That's not important. What matters is, I know your son is also his."

"You're spouting nonsense! My son is mine alone, he has nothing to do with him!"
