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.
