Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 554

"Mom, please sign here. I've checked it for you, and the settlement document is all good."

"Alright!" With a flourish, Elysia signed her name.

Elliot chuckled as he neatly filed away the settlement document. "Congrats, Mom. You've finally made it; you're a wealthy woman now."

Elysia thought Elliot was referring to the million-dollar medical bill and immediately whispered, "Let's keep it low-key."

Her eyes curved with joy, her smile almost reaching her ears. She was clearly overjoyed.

In the oddly tense atmosphere of the dining room, she was undoubtedly the happiest.

Only their family of six was joyful, while the rest looked like they had lost all hope!

He couldn't bear to think about the shares anymore; it made his blood pressure soar!
