Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 353

Elysia scooped another spoonful of the creamy yogurt and brought it to Tarquin's lips, which he accepted and ate. It was a small act, but it greatly encouraged her. With determination, she continued, spoon after spoon, until the whole cup of yogurt had vanished into Tarquin's stomach.

It reminded her of taking care of Elliot, Evan, and Emmett, as she gently wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin.

"All done. Now, lie back and get some rest," she said, standing up to leave. However, Tarquin suddenly grabbed her wrist. His movement was swift, yet gentle, showing no intention to hurt.

Elysia wasn't afraid; after all, this wasn't the first time he had grabbed her. She was merely curious.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

Tarquin furrowed his brows, struggling for a moment before managing to say, "Don't go."

Don't go? Elysia's eyes widened in surprise. She couldn't stay with him indefinitely.

Elysia declined, "You... you need to get some sleep. I'll just be in the bathroom."
