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!"

"Why not?"

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. Even if Elliot and Evan wore disguises every single day, it was only a matter of time before their cover was blown. Besides, it wasn't exactly practical to live in disguise 24/7!

Grasping at straws, Elysia protested, "We're practically strangers, and moving in with you, kids in tow, would just invite gossip."

Tarquin immediately reassured her, “As long as I'm around, no one would dare gossip in your presence."

"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?"
