Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 652

Keith got up, grabbing an alcohol wipe as he headed to the bathroom.

Once the bathroom door clicked shut, his expression shifted dramatically, as if he morphed into someone else entirely.

Standing before the bathroom mirror, his handsome eyes narrowed, his gaze turning chilling. His deep-set eyes seemed to harbor a monstrous beast...

He prodded the cut on his forehead with a finger, then, using the bloodied digit, scrawled 'Bradford' on the mirror.

And then, he crossed it out with a vehement 'X'.

...

Across the hall, Blossom was telling Elysia she'd be staying at her mom's place for the night, suggesting that Elysia could invite Tarquin over to stay.

Elysia's cheeks flushed even more at the suggestion. "Don't be ridiculous!"

Blossom chuckled, "What's there to be embarrassed about? You're both adults. Plus, he's into you, and you like him. Let me tell you, girl, opportunities like this don't come around often. He's a total catch, you know. If you hook up with him, you're the winner!"

Elysia, reddening further, retorted, "Stop it, or I'm hanging up."

Blossom's laughter grew louder, "Just kidding. Just wanted to let you know I won't be home tonight. Gotta go."

"Drink less at the dinner, and call me if you need anything."

"Yeah, yeah, got it."

After hanging up, Elysia exhaled deeply, touching her burning face.

Blossom really knew how to tease her, making her even more shy!

To an outsider, it might seem like she was playing wingwoman, setting things up on purpose!

Elysia stayed in her bedroom for a while longer to calm down before venturing out again.

Tarquin had also managed to cool off, now busy at the kitchen counter.
