Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 584

The vision of a bustling, happy family of six flashed through his mind, filling him with an immediate sense of contentment.

But in the next moment, Elysia flat-out rejected the idea, "No way!"

Elysia's brows furrowed with concern. She was already uneasy with the kids spending too much time around him, let alone the idea of living together day in and day out.

"That's not the point! It's... it's just weird for me," she insisted.

"How is it any weirder than you staying over at my place now? You're already spending nights here to take care of Elijah."

"It's different. I'm your nanny. Staying over occasionally is one thing, but moving in with my whole family? That's just not how things are done. When does a nanny ever move in with her employer?"
