Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 674

Elijah's mom - a memory Tarquin had almost forgotten existed in his life!

Now, out of the blue, he's hit with the news that she's making a comeback. This wasn't just idle gossip; it had the ring of truth to it.

And just like that, his world was thrown into chaos!

Choosing Elijah's mom meant he had to put his relationship with Elysia on hold. Forget Keith's lurking presence; Tarquin couldn't even bring himself to ask Elysia to wait for him.

He was in the dark about what Elijah's mom would decide, leaving him unable to promise Elysia a future.

Asking her to wait would unfairly make her his plan B.

He loved her too much to ever treat her like that!

But how could he face Elijah's mom if he chose Elysia?

Even if Elijah's mom understood and stepped back, Tarquin's guilt wouldn't let him be at peace.

Six years ago, he had been the one to insist, changing her from a girl to a woman on her very first night. How could he not feel responsible?!

Tarquin was a mess of guilt, agitation, frustration... a storm of negative emotions that left him struggling to breathe!

“Tarquin Bradford?!”

A familiar voice suddenly broke through his turmoil, making him spin around in surprise.

It was Elysia, running towards him, her presence giving his heart a jolt of shock and excitement.

The sand underfoot made her struggle in her flip-flops, so she kicked them off and ran barefoot towards him.

A sudden sharp pain made her cry out and fall, "Ouch!"

Realizing this wasn't a dream but reality – she'd really come for him – Tarquin rushed to her side, "Are you okay?!"
