Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 738

After a long kiss, Elysia was still wrapped around his neck, sitting on his lap. They looked into each other's eyes, neither spoke.

In that silence, Elysia suddenly buried her face in his chest, overwhelmed with embarrassment.

The next second, realizing something was off, she quickly jumped out of his embrace, staring at him with wide eyes and a flushed face.

He was aroused, and she felt it!

Embarrassed and flustered...

Clearing his throat awkwardly, Tarquin pulled her back into his arms, making sure she sat on just one of his legs this time.

“Just a hug.”

“You…”

“Just a hug.”

Elysia swallowed hard several times before finally relenting.

She tried to change the subject, suddenly remembering something important.

"Right, I need to talk to you about Emmett."

"Hmm? What about Emmett?"

"Emmett... he's not your son."

Tarquin's expression changed dramatically, shocked, "Emmett isn't mine?!"

"Yeah!"

Tarquin frowned, his expression complex as he looked at Elysia, "Then whose is he?"

"I don't know. I found Emmett abandoned on a mountain. When I woke up from giving birth to the boys, only Elliot and Evan were with me. Finding Emmett alive, I quickly took him home to save him. I tried to find his biological parents but had no luck, so I decided to raise him myself.

Having been adopted myself, I know what it's like to feel out of place. I didn't want Emmett to feel inferior, so I've always kept it from him.
