Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 569

Elliott and Evan woke up to find Elysia missing from their hospital room. Piecing things together, they figured she must have gone to check on Elijah, so they headed over to find her.

As fate would have it, they stumbled upon her conversation with Tarquin.

Evan, red with rage, exclaimed, "Someone has been poisoning Elijah multiple times! Bro, we've got to root out this scumbag and avenge Elijah!"

Elliott's expression darkened. "Yes, we'll find him!"

The audacity to poison his brother, keeping Elijah sick for so long, was unforgivable!

And their mom was right to worry. If the culprit was a repeat offender, there was a chance they'd try poisoning Elijah again.

Until they caught him, Elijah wasn't safe.

Evan grumbled, "That jerk Tarquin couldn’t even figure out who the culprit is. I bet it was someone from the Bradford clan! Bro, let's take down their whole gang!"

Elliott pondered. The poison was definitely linked to the Bradfords.

But when he observed their reaction after Elijah was poisoned, except for Gideon looking oddly out of place, the rest seemed shocked and almost delighted, not the reactions of a guilty party.

As for Gideon...

His shock turned to disbelief, then to nervousness.

Why would he be shocked and then nervous?

Because he didn't expect Elijah to be poisoned to death!

Maybe Gideon was the one consistently poisoning Elijah, but the person trying to kill Elijah this time might not be him!

After some thought, Elliott said to Evan, "Tarquin must be onto the Bradfords looking for the culprit. Let’s head over. If he can’t find them, we’ll figure something out."

"Alright!"

The brothers put on their masks and left the hospital, heading straight for the Bradford estate.
