Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 38

Nola was fuming, her voice dripping with venom as she lashed out, “That bitch! She should’ve stayed hidden, but she dares to strut around? Does she not fear I might have someone take her out?”

Gage chimed in, “Nola, I’ve heard Tarquin is also in the hospital. You think she came for him?”

At the mention of Tarquin, Nola’s eyes bulged with rage, “That shameless bitch, thinking she can seduce Tarquin? He made it clear he’s not into her, yet she sticks to him like glue. Shameless!

Uncle, take her away and give her a lesson she won’t forget! Start by ruining that pretty face of hers, then let the boys have their way with her, and once they’re done, sell her off to some backwater town. I never want to lay eyes on her again!”

Gage’s eyes sparkled with opportunity. This was the moment he had been waiting for. If Tarquin ever came after him for bullying Elysia, Nola would be the perfect shield. After all, as Elijah’s lifesaver, Tarquin wouldn’t dare blame her for anything.

“Rest easy, Nola. Leave her to me,” Gage reassured her before hanging up. He turned on his heel and strode to his car.

As he pulled the car door open, Elysia, struggling, poked her head out and cried for help, “Somebody, please… help me…”

The hospital entrance was crowded, and heads turned at her pleas.
