Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Back in the hospital room, Blossom comforted her, "Elysia, don't stress yourself out. It's a relief she's not trying to take Emmett back. Her situation... well, it's not one that could make Emmett happy. If Emmett went back with them, he'd definitely suffer."

Their home situation wasn't the best, and Emmett's mom seemed a bit off.

Hollis added, "If they don't stir up trouble, then the authorities won't get involved. Emmett can stay with you without any issues. Try not to worry too much. By the way, does Emmett know about this?"

Elysia shook her head, "Not yet."

"Let's keep it that way."

Better to keep the little guy in the dark for now. When he's older, they could tell him.

For a child, growing up happy and healthy is what matters most.

Elysia nodded. She knew she'd have to tell Emmett about his origins someday, just not now.
