Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 737

Tarquin's eyes burned, and his mind was flooded with images...

The image of Elysia, looking lost and defeated at the airport after he had mocked her, and later, when her husband kicked her out.

The image of her curled up in a corner, crying alone after being slandered, insulted, and cursed.

The image of her, pregnant and heartbroken, leaving Jindale City.

The image of her working hard, close to giving birth, trying to provide for herself and her child.

The image of her sick, feverish, and utterly alone during her pregnancy.

And the image of her returning, only for him to shame her...

So many images flashed through Tarquin's mind, each one a sharp knife stabbing straight into his heart!

"Elysia, I'm so sorry, I'm truly sorry..."

Tears streamed down Tarquin's cheeks!

He was in agony, a pain so deep it was unbearable!

He had so much he wanted to say to Elysia, but nothing came out except apologies.

What else could he say?

What right did he have to say anything?

He had hurt her too deeply!

Elysia noticed his emotional turmoil. She knew he was remorseful, his apologies were for the events of six years ago!

Once, she had thought that if she ever encountered that man again and he apologized, she would slap him across the face!

Was his apology supposed to be valuable?

Who would care?!

But now, she gently lifted her hand to wipe his tears.

She liked him, seeing him cry even made her heart ache...

"It's all in the past now, what matters is our happiness. You did hurt me before, but you also gave me angels in return, we're even. I decided to let bygones be bygones when I chose to forgive you, I truly don't dwell on the past anymore."

Tarquin shook his head with teary eyes, "It's not even..."

How could it ever be even? He owed her too much, a lifetime of love wouldn't be enough to make up for it!
