Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 927

Keith hurriedly got out of the car, catching the masked man by surprise.

They had been expecting Tarquin, not Keith!

When Baby saw Keith, she was overwhelmed with emotion, crying even louder,

"Daddy, daddy! I want a hug, daddy, please hug me…"

Keith followed the sound of her voice and saw Baby tied up on the second floor. His heart sank, and he felt a shiver run through his entire body,

"Don't worry, Baby, Daddy's here."

Keith started to rush upstairs but was blocked by a group of thugs.

The man at the top of the stairs looked down at Keith with disappointment in his voice,

"You're not going after Gideon for revenge?"

Keith clenched his fists, glaring back with a murderous look, silent.

The man sneered, "I really feel sorry for Kelsey and the entire Inkster family. For the descendant of an enemy, you're even willing to give up on your vendetta! Keith, she has the Bradford family blood in her!"

Keith replied coldly,

"She's just my daughter, Keith's daughter, and that's all that matters!"

The man scoffed, "Lying to yourself, is that fun?"

Keith ignored him, his gaze threatening, "I'm taking Baby with me! Now!"

The man then asked, "I didn't tell you about this place. How did you find it? Who told you? Tarquin? Or did you... have someone on the inside?"

Keith repeated his demand,

"I'm here to take Baby away. Now!"

"You can take her, but not just yet. Wait until I've dealt with Tarquin. If you don't want revenge, you can wait here. Once I'm done with Tarquin, I'll hand Baby over to you."

Keith didn't engage further.

He looked up at Baby, his eyes filled with tenderness,

"Baby, Daddy's right here. Don't be scared. You're not alone; Daddy's here. Now, do as Daddy says, close your eyes, and count silently. Only open them when Daddy says so."
