Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1270

It took Tarquin a long moment to finally speak.

“You guys are… Quincy, right? Are you really Quincy?”

Elliot nodded again, more seriously this time. “Yeah. We are.”

Tarquin just stared at him, stunned into silence for a good while.

Quincy. The Quincys. The name still echoed among the old guard of artists and fashion icons—absolute legends. To put it simply, even someone as proud as Grandpa Emmett would show them nothing but the utmost respect.

And Bernard… well, Tarquin didn’t even have to ask about him.

He’d known it the moment he laid eyes on him.

That wild, brazen kid who made headlines for storming the ring in seven different countries—that was him!

Back then, foreign fighters had mocked Americans, calling them soft, and Bernard couldn’t take it. He’d taken on challenger after challenger, fists flying, and showed the world what a real lion’s strength looked like.

He was young, ridiculously strong, and so fierce that fighters from half of Europe and the States called him out, denouncing him for breaking the “spirit of sportsmanship” and spreading rumors he must have been doping to be that good.

His feats sent shockwaves around the world.

He died young, but even now, his name is still spoken with reverence in martial arts circles.

Anyone who practiced, everyone who ever dreamed of being somebody, admired him, envied him, wanted to be him.

Tarquin took a deep breath. These people—every last one of them—were legends.

Elysia’s grandparents? Certified, world-renowned legends.

And every single one of them was supposed to be dead.

Not just Grandma, but all the grandpas too. They’d all supposedly died years ago.

Who would’ve guessed they’d been living it up in the mountains all this time?

Tarquin couldn’t help himself. “So… why’d they fake their deaths?”

Elliot answered, “Great-Grandpa and Great-Grandma said they’d spent half their lives working too hard and worrying too much. They just wanted a break, so they decided to retire somewhere quiet.”
