Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1862

She hoped that whenever Baby and Keith missed each other, they could reunite in her dreams.

Keith had indeed done many terrible things, but his love for Baby was as true as the heavens.

He had raised her exceptionally well. Not only did he provide her with a life of luxury, but he had also showered her with the boundless love of a father.

Moreover, he had died saving her.

He loved Baby, and Baby loved him back just as fiercely!

Right before bed last night, Baby had still been asking:

'Mommy, Grandpa and Grandma said the New Year is a time for family reunions. But why isn't my Daddy coming back?'

'I miss him so much. Doesn't he miss his Baby? It's been a really, really long time since he called me.'

'Does he not want his Baby anymore? But Daddy loves me so much, he wouldn't just not want me.'

'When exactly is Daddy coming back?'

Elysia had choked back a sob at the time. He wasn't coming back. Keith was never coming back in this lifetime.

He was already dead...

Elysia's eyes grew hot and damp again. She sighed inwardly, wishing desperately that Keith hadn't died.

Even if he had been sentenced to life in prison, at least Baby could have visited him whenever she missed him.

But he was dead, and no matter how much Baby longed for him, she would never see him again.

The entire situation with Keith was just so heartbreakingly unfair...

Tarquin reached out and draped his arm over Elysia's shoulders, silently comforting her.

He fully understood the significance behind the name 'Mireille'. He was a little jealous, of course. After all, she was his precious little girl, and yet her name was tied to another man.

But jealousy aside, he wasn't angry in the slightest, and he fully supported the decision.

Resentment was one thing, but gratitude was another.

He was profoundly thankful for Keith's devotion to Baby and his ultimate sacrifice.

Clayton was also aware of everything that had happened between Keith and Baby. He let out a long sigh.

"From now on, our little sweetheart will be known as Mireille Bradford! When you go to the cemetery to pay your respects tomorrow, don't forget to tell Tarquin's parents about it."

Elysia took a deep breath, collected her emotions, and nodded.

"Yes! I know."
