Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 415

"....Oh."

"Mom, what are we having for lunch?" Elijah shifted Elysia's attention.

Elysia immediately asked, "What do you feel like eating?"

"I want beef stir-fry with rice."

"No problem, I'll get right on it."

"Mhm."

After Elysia left, Elijah quickly got in touch with Elliot.

By this time, Nola had arrived at the preschool, and the teachers were organizing the kids to go out to the playground to receive the gifts Nola had brought.

Evan recognized her immediately and exclaimed, "It's that ugly lady! What Angel Lady? She's more like an old witch, for heaven's sake! Ugh, teachers are such liars!"

Today, Nola came to the preschool to donate money and gifts, but the teachers, unaware of her true character, told the children that an Angel Lady was visiting.

Elliot also recognized Nola, watching her from a distance with a frown.

Emmett, of course, recognized her too. The sight of her reminded him of being kicked viciously with her high heel at the train station, making him hide behind Evan, "That mean lady! What is she doing here?"

Elliot, seeing Nola standing on the stage and searching the crowd, said unhappily, "She's probably here for us, no surprise there."

Evan was furious, "Is she asking for it again?!"

Elliot's smartwatch suddenly beeped. It was Elijah calling.

"Let's head to the restroom to take Elijah's call, then we can deal with her."

"Okay."

The three little guys excused themselves to the restroom under the pretense of needing to use it, stepping away from the playground.
