Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 398

Although Tarquin and Professor Folly were quite chummy, Blossom had never met the man before.

And boy, did he leave an impression!

The guy looked, well, otherworldly!

Elysia knew her lovestruck friend was at it again and called out, “Blossom!”

Snapping back to reality with an awkward laugh, Blossom hurried over, “Coming, coming.”

“This is Elijah’s dad, Mr. Bradford, and over here we have Elijah’s uncle, Lowell. And this is my BFF, Blossom,” Elysia introduced.

Tarquin was the epitome of a gentleman, “Pleasure to meet you.”

Lowell, with a grin, said, “Nice to meet ya, Ms. Blythe. Just Lowell is fine.”

Blossom, nearly drooling in awe, nodded eagerly, “Nice, nice. Since you’re here, why don’t y’all come in for a bit?”

Elysia’s face dropped, and she subtly nudged her friend!

Invite them in? The kids were still upstairs!

Oh, this woman. A handsome face and she loses her mind.

“They're busy, let's get going. We've got dinner to make,” Elysia hurried Blossom away.

Blossom, head over heels as usual, called out during their goodbye, “Drop by anytime, our door’s always open!”

Elysia could only sigh.

After the group left with their gifts, Tarquin and Lowell headed back to their car.

“Keep an eye on them,” Tarquin instructed.

“Don't you worry about Elijah. I’ll have a couple more guys check in,” Lowell assured, then dialed to make arrangements before starting the car and asking Tarquin, “Mr. Huber called around noon, wanted to catch up. You in?”
