Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 503

Josiah was utterly gobsmacked. This was Tarquin's girlfriend?

But... although she was drop-dead gorgeous, flawless really, she didn't sport a single piece of bling or designer gear. Normally, with a guy like Tarquin, you'd expect his girlfriend to be dripping in brand names and jewels, right? Even if she was going for the understated look, this was taking it to an extreme.

Josiah began to doubt Elysia's story. He hesitated before saying, “Just give me a moment." He turned to find Tarquin. He didn't dare let her meet Tarquin without checking first. What if she was just some overzealous fan who'd somehow got wind he was here and decided to pretend to be his girlfriend to meet her idol? That would surely annoy Tarquin, wouldn't it? And worse, what if she was an assassin sent by one of Tarquin's enemies? Maybe she looked harmless on the outside but was hiding something sinister.

Feeling particularly cautious today, Josiah decided it was best to check with Tarquin first.

The whole girlfriend concept seemed totally alien to Tarquin! When told his girlfriend was here to see him, he was as surprised as anyone, "Her name?"

Josiah blinked in confusion. "?"

Did Tarquin have so many girlfriends he couldn't keep track, or was it that he had none, which is why he didn't know his own girlfriend's name? "She says her name is Elysia."
