Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 858

Keith had just arrived in Jindale City when his little treasure burst into tears, wailing for her daddy and where he had gone.

His three-year-old girl, just as inconsolable as she was at three months, refused to eat, drink, or sleep, simply crying with her little mouth agape.

The nanny sent him a video, and the sight of his daughter's clear tears rolling down her tender cheeks like pearls off a string broke him completely!

He was in public when he found himself tearing up over her cries!

Without a second thought, he purchased a return ticket, determined to rush back the way he came!

From that moment, Keith knew he was utterly tethered to her; his little girl had him wrapped around her finger!

He loved his treasure, with all his heart and soul, despite her not being the sharpest tool in the shed.

She might have taken after Elysia in that regard, a bit slow on the uptake!

While other kids were making rapid progress, she was always a few steps behind!

When other toddlers were walking by eleven months, she took her first steps at thirteen!

Learning to write was a challenge for most kids, but with a bit of patience, they'd get it in a few days. But his little girl? Teaching her the number 2 took an entire month, and still, she didn't grasp it!

The frustration was beyond words. It was just the number 2, and yet, she couldn't learn it!

Teaching her anything more complicated, like spelling or foreign languages that made her snooze instantly, seemed like an impossible task!

He was on the brink of a meltdown, repeatedly trying to teach her, only for her to not get it and look at him with those big, teary eyes filled with incomprehension.

Her pitiful look made it impossible to even think about scolding her. It felt like it would be a crime to lash out at such a darling face!
