Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 1213

He was curled up in the corner, shivering so badly it looked like he might fall apart at any moment. Whatever had happened to him, it had clearly scared the life out of him.

Priscilla rushed over, her voice trembling. "Sweetie, what happened to you?!"

Zane finally looked up, his face ghostly pale. "I saw my dad. He was trying to strangle me!"

"What on earth are you talking about?" Priscilla gasped. "Your dad's been gone for years! There's no way you saw him. And even if you did, he would never hurt you-he's your father!"

Zane's panic only grew when he realized Priscilla didn't believe him. He started talking faster, more frantic.

"I swear I saw him! Last night, he was by the window. Today he was at the front door, then he came inside! He kept chasing me, reaching for my neck like he wanted to kill me!"

Priscilla's worry deepened. "Honey, are you sure you're not just under a lot of stress? Maybe you're having some kind of hallucination. Try to calm down, okay? Why don't we check the security cameras together?"

"They won't show anything!" Zane shot back.

Priscilla stared at him, speechless.

Zane was in such a bad state that Priscilla couldn't take any chances. She grabbed her phone and dialed 911, asking for a psychologist to come over immediately.
