Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 453

In the quaint little town of Everwood, nestled between rolling hills and vibrant greenery, Blossom's phone rang unexpectedly, disrupting the quiet of an otherwise ordinary afternoon. It was from the head of Little Sprouts Preschool, informing her that Nola wished for a private meeting with Elliot, Evan, and Emmett.

The reason? A rumor sparked by Elliot's offhand remark about Nola being "pregnant" had gone viral, and now, Nola wanted to clear the air directly with the boys.

Blossom, known for her close friendship with Elysia, was tasked by the preschool to facilitate this sensitive conversation.

As soon as the call ended, Blossom shared the news with Elysia. Both of them were unaware of Nola's relationships with Elijah and Tarquin.
