Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem



Tarquin couldn't shake off the suspicion that the scumbag worked at his company.

But he had heard from Elysia that her husband was disabled, and to his knowledge, there were no disabled employees at headquarters. Yet, Elysia wouldn't have come for no reason...

Tarquin was puzzled about where the problem lay. He stayed in his car, watching quietly from a distance.

Unaware she was being followed, Elysia stood in front of a grand and architecturally stunning skyscraper, feeling intimidated.

This landmark business tower, which obviously screamed wealth, belonged to Tarquin!

Rumor had it that just this headquarters building alone cost billions!

Compared to Tarquin, Elysia felt less significant than a speck of dust!

She wondered what Tarquin saw in Daphne... Given his wealth and power, one would expect him to match with a high-society heiress, right?

But then again, if Tarquin truly preferred men and needed a beard, choosing a woman from outside their elite circle might make more sense. Someone from a humbler background would be easier to manage.

Taking a deep breath, Elysia thought about how different their worlds were: hers so ordinary, and Tarquin's, unimaginably elite. Two people who should have had nothing in common were married!

Fate had a strange sense of humor!

Elysia wouldn't have dared to come directly to him if she wasn't desperate.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

She had a man she loved, a child, and a desire to build a complete family with Tarin, which meant she couldn't be Tarquin's beard.

She had to talk to him!

This marriage had to end!

Elysia timidly walked towards the entrance, feeling small but determined.

As expected, a security guard stopped her at the door.

"Good morning, ma'am. May I ask who you're here to see?"

"I... I'm here to see Mr. Bradford."

"Do you have an appointment?"

"No, I don't, but it's urgent."

"I'm sorry, ma'am. Without an appointment, I can't let you in," the guard said, his tone professional, his face unreadable.

Elysia couldn't reveal her relationship with Tarquin; she could only say,

"Could you please tell him that a woman named Elysia is looking for him? He'll want to see me if he knows I'm here."

She hoped Tarquin would come out to see her now that she was at his office doorstep.

But the guard maintained his stance, repeating,

"Without an appointment, I'm unable to disturb Mr. Bradford. If it's truly urgent, please schedule a meeting."

So, even a message couldn't get through.

Elysia didn't realize that someone of Tarquin's stature wasn't easily accessible to just anyone. It wasn't possible for a stranger to seek Tarquin and be granted an audience just like that.

Otherwise, Tarquin would be swamped with requests!

Tarquin was a financial mogul; countless heiresses and high-flyers were lined up to meet him, yet only a few got the chance.

Feeling defeated, Elysia muttered an apology and walked away.

Since she couldn't go in to find him, she decided to wait outside for him!

He had to leave the office eventually, right?

Elysia was determined to see him today, no matter what!

Just as she was scouting for a good spot to wait, a familiar voice caught her off guard,

"Elysia?!"

Her heart skipped a beat upon hearing that voice.

Shocked, she turned towards the sound and saw a familiar face!
