Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 1241

Tarquin asked, “So, when you head back to the cabin in the mountains, are you taking your folks with you?"

Elysia shook her head.

"No, I promised my grandparents I'd keep everything about them a secret. Can't bring a whole crowd along. Besides, Mom's health isn't really up for a serious hike."

The trail was tough enough, and her grandparents' place was tucked way off the beaten path.

They'd have to trek through a stretch of thick woods, then wind their way through what felt like half a national park just to find the cabin.

Last time they came down the mountain, they'd been out there for days.

Tarquin frowned. “So what are you gonna tell your parents? They hate being apart from you."

Elysia thought for a moment. "I'll just tell them it's confidential family stuff. They'll get it."

Tarquin pressed, "But can you even find your way back?"

Elysia grinned. "No way I could, not by myself."

Tarquin sighed. "Then how are you getting there?"

She shrugged, "White and Evan know the way. They'll guide me."
