Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 911

Elysia asked Tarquin, "How did you know I wanted to pursue a career in child psychology?"

"It was just a guess."

Elysia narrowed her eyes, "Did the kids tell you about our time in the wilderness?"

Tarquin's eyes sparkled with curiosity every time the wilderness was mentioned.

Although Elliot, Evan, and Emmett were naturally gifted, without a mentor, it was unlikely they'd be so skilled at such a young age!

And then there was Elysia, not the sharpest tool in the shed, and even a bit... clueless!

Yet, her knowledge of holistic medicine surpassed that of Benjamin Lawson, a specialist. The only logical explanation was that her teacher was no ordinary individual!

Great teachers produce great students!

Moreover, the situation Elysia and the kids were in back then, if not for encountering a big shot, they wouldn't have survived!

And Evan's pet, White, clearly wasn't a breed you'd find in a regular pet store, both formidable and sentient, a rare find indeed! But each time the wilderness was brought up, Elysia and the kids would deliberately steer the conversation elsewhere. Leaving him still in the dark about what kind of place they referred to as the deep woods and what kind of people lived there?

Silent, Elysia began to panic, "Did the kids really tell you?"

Tarquin didn't want to scare her, "No."
