Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 316

Tarquin tried to keep his cool. "How exactly did I bully her?" he asked.

Evan's temper flared even more at the question. "You seriously don't know how you bullied her?"

Tarquin's brow furrowed tighter. "No clue. I believe I've never bullied Elysia."

"You... you..." Evan was beside himself with anger. His mom had been reduced to tears, and here Tarquin was, claiming ignorance!

That was just too much!

Evan, clenching his little fists, was about to take a swing when Lowell quickly intervened, "Evan, let's talk this out calmly, please... don't get all worked up. Let's just talk."

Evan was fuming. "He made my mom cry, and he says he's never bullied her! Bullying a lady, that's not what a true gentleman does! And then he doesn't even have the guts to admit it, what a coward! And he thinks he can be my dad? He doesn't deserve to!"

He doesn't deserve to be his dad?

Lowell was too scared to utter a word.

Tarquin pushed Lowell aside, trying to suppress his anger, and looked straight at Evan. "The bullying you're talking about, is it about the call I made to her tonight?"

Evan pouted, silent.
