Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 943

The good news was that the safe Keith had left behind was dug up, unscathed.

The documents inside were already on their way to the Number One Mansion.

The bad news? The villain had escaped!

His plane crashed in the dense forests, exploded, and no remains were found at the site. Clearly, he had parachuted out in time.

Hanging up the phone, Tarquin frowned and leaned closer to Elijah's computer screen.

"His plane crashed here?"

"Yep."

Elijah zoomed in on the map.

"The police were cautious about not causing unnecessary harm, so they waited for him to land before attempting to arrest him. Unfortunately, he still got away! The signal is spotty deep in the forest, so we've no idea where he parachuted from. It's impossible to track him now."

Elliot stood aside, his brow furrowed.

"There's a river through the jungle. Crossing that river leads out of the country. It must have been his escape plan all along. Chances are, he's crossed the river and fled abroad."

The three men's faces grew darker.

"Knock, knock, knock."

The rhythmic knocking came, and Elysia, with Baby in tow, called them down for dinner.

Tarquin gathered his thoughts and reassured his sons,

"Don't worry, we missed him this time, but there will be other opportunities to catch him! The documents Keith left will arrive soon, and we can go over them after dinner. Let's keep spirits high and not worry your mother."

The boys sighed in relief and nodded in agreement.
