Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 580

Evan's frown deepened, showing his reluctance, but Elliot nodded, "Got it."

The Bradford family was tangled up in something sinister, involving their grandmother's ashes and the killer who took out both their grandparents. Elliot knew better than to mess with the Bradford family too hastily, to avoid throwing a wrench in Tarquin's carefully laid plans and accidentally making things worse.

"Alright, let's shake it off. When we see Elysia at the hospital, just say I'm the one who brought you guys. Don't slip up."

Elliot and Evan: "..."

They had just arrived at the hospital when Lowell called.

Tarquin stepped aside to take the call, leaving the kids to find Elysia.

Lowell mentioned that one of Gideon's trusted associates had decided to ditch his 20% share in favor of staying alive and confessing to the authorities.

Tarquin made Lowell promise to take care of his family.

After discussing the aftermath for a while longer, Tarquin hung up and went to look for Elysia.

At that moment, Elysia was alone in the hospital room, not noticing Elliot, Evan, or Emmett's absence as she busied herself making the bed where the three little ones had slept the night before.
