Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 427

At the same time, he understood why Elliot had messaged him to buy time. It turned out to be so Emmett could do their makeup and fool their dad.

Elijah nodded and said to Tarquin, "Dad, why don't you head home first? I'll come back later with Mom."

"I'll make sure Elijah is safe. You can go," said Elysia, quickly taking the four kids and heading home.

Tarquin watched them leave, his stylish brows furrowing slightly.

Lowell whispered, "Those three sons of Ms. Thorne seem pretty normal, don't they? Why did Ms. Slater insist you meet them? And what is Ms. Thorne so afraid of? Why was she so scared to go upstairs?"

Tarquin didn't know what struck him, but his frown deepened...

Upstairs.

As soon as Elysia got home, she hurriedly locked the door from the inside, as if she was scared Tarquin would suddenly barge in.

Elliot tried to comfort her, "Mom, don't worry. If we don't want him to see us, he won't get the chance."

Elysia sighed in relief, "Thank goodness you guys are smart, and thank goodness Emmett's makeup skills are top-notch!"

After saying this, she even went up to Emmett and gave him a big kiss, then asked, "Is Blossom doing okay?"

"Yeah, she's sleeping in her room."

Elysia opened the bedroom door to peek at Blossom, who was indeed asleep on the bed.

Elliot said, "Mom, let's not disturb Blossom's sleep. Let her rest."

Elysia didn't think much of it and closed the door again, quickly pulling Elliot aside to ask, "Elliot, tell me, how did you know Nola was pregnant?"
