Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 878

Time seemed to stand still before Elliot finally broke the silence:

"Stop it, guys. You're gonna scare the little one into tears if she sees you fighting."

The two men, previously locked in a fierce battle, paused at his words.

Elliot had a way with words, hitting right where it hurt.

A scuffle between them was one thing, but upsetting the little one? Now that was a serious matter.

Both Tarquin and Keith were fond of the little one and ceased their fighting.

They sat down on the couch, a coffee table between them, panting and glaring at each other, sweat dripping down their faces.

Elliot looked from his own father to Keith, biting his lip.

No bias here, but both men were schemers!

They fought ferociously yet neither had a scratch on their face. Clearly, they were avoiding facial hits, probably fearing the little one would feel sorry for the injured party and resent the attacker.

So they aimed for places out of sight!

Neither wanted to be blamed by the little one!
