Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 1144

Elysia grabbed her phone from the nightstand, intending to check the time, but the push notification on the screen instantly caught her attention.

She was wide awake in a heartbeat!

Tapping into Tarquin's trending topic, she scrolled through the comments.

#Just saying, who wouldn't fall for such a powerful and commanding man? Not just women, even a guy like me is totally smitten!#

#If I can't be Mr. Bradford's man in life, I'll be his ghost in death! When I die, I'm gonna haunt him day and night!#

#While Emmett's story showcased Ms. Thorne's virtues, the feud over who gets the guy with her is absolutely unforgivable!#

Elysia skimmed a few comments, her mouth twitching at times, and at others, she shivered with disbelief.

The love for Tarquin was... indescribable!

After surfing the web for a while, laughing at some bizarre comments, and learning why Tarquin was trending again, her lips curled into a smile involuntarily, her face radiating happiness, her heart filled with warmth.

Glancing around the room, she spotted Tarquin on the balcony.

He stood there with his hands in his pockets, tall and striking, his long legs particularly eye-catching.

His profile was stunning, as if he'd stepped right out of a comic book.

Wrapping herself in a robe, Elysia went out to him.
