Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 95

Elysia was shopping on the bustling streets when her phone buzzed with a new message. She was fuming as she clutched her phone and confronted the caller.

“What do you mean he’ll divorce when he feels like it? Can’t he give me a straight answer? Can’t I just see him, have a one–on–one chat, I-”

“Beep, beep, beep…”

Before she could finish her sentence, the call was abruptly ended.

“Son of a gun!”

Elysia was seething, hands on hips, forehead creased in frustration.

Realizing she had blacklisted their number previously, she quickly salvaged the contact from digital oblivion and dialed back.

The news that Tarquin had actually reached out to her last night, even setting up a meeting for today, had sent her over the moon with excitement.
