Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 88

Chapter 88 

He was determined to meet ‘his wife‘ himself, to see if there indeed was such a powerful figure behind her! 

The next morning, Elysia was jolted awake by the shrill ring of her cellphone. 

It was Zane calling. 

Blearily opening her eyes, Elysia answered, “Hello?” 

“Elysia, it’s me, Zane.” 

“I know. I saved your number yesterday. What’s up, you need something?” 

“Nothing major, just a bit worried about you. Sorry about last night. I had one too many and just woke up. You alright?” 

Elysia knew he was referring to the altercation with Gage. 

“I’m fine, don’t worry about me.” 

“Gage hasn’t been giving you any more trouble, has he?” 

“No, he hasn’t.” 

Zane let out a sigh of relief, “That’s good to hear. Where are you at? You out of bed yet?” 

“Not yet. Blossom’s with me at this temporary place I’m staying at. But, yeah, we should probably get up.” 

“Well, send me your location. I’ll come over and bring you guys some breakfast.” 

“Wait, you’re coming over?” 

“Yeah, is that not okay?” 

“It’s not that. I know you’re busy, and if you’re just concerned about me, you don’t have to come. I’m really okay.” 

Zane replied with a chuckle, “No matter how busy, I’ve got to check on you. Plus, I’m not busy today; it’s Sunday, my day off.” 

Elysia was about to protest when Zane added, “Winona’s been looking for you for years. Now that you’ve finally shown up, if I don’t come to see you, she’d kill me. I’m visiting on her behalf.” 

With that, Elysia had no ground to refuse. 

“Alright, I’ll send you my location.” 

09:48 

After hanging up, Blossom asked, “Zane’s coming over?” 

Yeah, he says he’s coming on behalf of Winona.” 

“Quite the survival Instinct he’s got. If Winona knew you were back and Zane didn’t visit, she’d definitely have his head.” 

Elysia just smiled, “That’s what he said himself.” 

Neither of them thought much of it. Since a gentleman was visiting, they quickly got out of bed to freshen up. 

Elysia was unaware that Royal Community had tried to call her last night. Her phone showed no missed calls. 

After drinking heavily, the mere thought of Royal Community issues was distressing. Under the influence, in a fit of irritation, she had blocked the number. 

Now that the alcohol had worn off, she’d completely forgotten about blocking the call. So, the number from Royal Community was still lying dormant in her blacklist. 

Blossom headed to the bathroom first, while Elysia went to check on the three little ones.
