Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 502

No, no, no!

This was a matter of life and death. If Tarquin was wrongfully accused of murder, he could face the death penalty!

The image of Tarquin facing a firing squad flashed through Elysia's mind, her heart leaping into her throat in panic.

She had to find out more.

Setting down her kitchen knife and wiping her hands on her apron, Elysia dialed Lowell's number.

"Lowell, do you have any idea what's happening at the police station? It wasn't him, so why is he still locked up after all this time? Haven't they cleared his name yet?"

"...Not yet."

Elysia frowned, "Is someone trying to frame him?"

For a moment, Lowell was at a loss for words, worried about scaring her or revealing too much about Tarquin's true identity.

After all, in Elysia's eyes, Tarquin wasn't the CEO of the Bradford Group; he was just someone from the Bradford family who once had money and then went bankrupt.

After pondering for a moment, Lowell replied,

"Ms. Thorne, you don't need to worry about this. We'll handle it. Just take care of Elijah for Tarquin."
