Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 805

Tarquin had just given an order and was about to light up a cigarette when Elliot and Elijah suddenly appeared behind him.

The brothers furrowed their brows in unison, their expressions grave as they stared at him, blurting out together, "We have a sister?!"

Tarquin paused, putting away his lighter and cigarette, "Why are you two still up?"

The boys tilted their heads up to him, waiting for an answer.

Elliot and Elijah, always attentive to details, knew something was up. Tarquin and Elysia had just returned from their island getaway, and ideally, it was a time for the family of six to finally come together. Especially since at the party, Tarquin and Elysia had left abruptly, essentially confirming their marital status without a proper family reunion afterward.

And then, Tarquin hurried off, claiming business matters.

If it had truly been about work, he would have postponed it or at least waited until after the family dinner. This had the brothers worried and restless, unable to sleep.

When Tarquin returned around ten past midnight, the boys were still awake, pretending to be asleep.

They overheard Tarquin's conversation with Elysia and the command he gave to Axel.
