Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 745

As dusk settled in, Elysia busied herself with making a big batch of homemade pizza.

It was the first day of a heartfelt father-son reunion, and under normal circumstances, they would have celebrated with a lavish dinner out. However, Elliot wasn't feeling well enough to leave his hospital suite, so they decided to bring the celebration to him.

The suite they were in was top-notch, costing a pretty penny per day, akin to a presidential suite in a luxury hotel - spotless, fully equipped, and stocked with high-end brands.

The pizza-making turned into a family affair.

Elliot, propped up in his hospital bed, took on the role of supervisor, while the other five got their hands dirty, filling the room with laughter and chatter. After dinner, Tarquin needed to step out to meet a few influential figures.

Some of them were leaving Jindale City early the next morning, and tonight was his last chance to see them. Given the day's unexpected events, he had been preoccupied with Elysia and the kids and hadn't had a moment to meet these respected elders, who were like uncles to him. Out of both respect and affection, he felt it was important to see them.
