Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 1420

"My mom wants to be buried next to my dad, not get a place in the Bradford family mansion. She doesn't need any of you to accept her! As long as my dad and I do,

that's enough!"

"If any of you have a problem with it, keep it to yourselves. And if you can't, go ahead and drop dead-I'll even make sure you're buried, out of respect for my dad!"

The room full of weeping relatives quickly averted their eyes when Tarquin walked in, none daring to meet his gaze.

Even the reporters wisely stepped aside, keeping their cameras down.

Allegra, eyes red from crying, glared at Tarquin and yelled,

"You bastard! Your father lived as a Bradford and died as a Bradford! For your mom to be buried with him, the family has to agree!"

"I'm the oldest now, so I call the shots. And we Bradfords don't want that tramp Elizabeth in our family plot! She's not worthy!"

"If you dare bury them together, I'll kill myself tonight just to show you!"

Tarquin's voice was icy. "Then do it now. But if you don't, tomorrow I'll make sure you're dragged along and forced to watch my mom and dad be buried together."

"And the rest of you, open your eyes tomorrow and see for yourselves you could never measure up to her."
