Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 697

Elysia massaged her temples, feeling a secondhand embarrassment for him.

Luckily, his efficiency saved the day. The delivery arrived swiftly, brimming with bite-sized delights: mini quiches, shrimp dumplings, mini donuts, along with burgers and sandwiches, not to forget the soy milk and a variety of hearty oatmeals.

A feast to cater to the varied tastes of the little ones.

Elysia called out for the kids to wash up for breakfast, and the little rascals bolted from the playroom. They scurried to the dining table, eyes scanning for their breakfast before racing off to wash their hands.

Tarquin set aside the delivery, placing his homemade dishes in front of Elysia. "Eat this," he suggested.

"Why's that?"

"It's made by me, not some other guy," Tarquin said, knowing well that the chefs at Jinpeach Restaurant were all men.

Elysia rolled her eyes. Was this really the time for a competition?
