Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 336

Sarah was in a full-blown panic, shaking her head like she was trying to dislodge the very thought from her mind.

"No, no! I don’t want to go to a psychiatric ward. Please don’t lock me up. I was wrong. I won’t run away anymore. I won’t look for my child. Please, don’t do this to me. I’m begging you."

With doctors and nurses around, Zane's tone softened a touch, "I'm doing all this for your own good. You've got to understand that."

Sarah glanced at him, her eyes wide and fearful, "I know, I know..."

"Come on, let's go back and get you checked out properly by the doctor."

As Zane helped Sarah up and led her towards the clinic, she sneaked a look in the direction Tarquin had left, frowning slightly.

In the hospital ward.

Gideon's right-hand man returned to the room and whispered, "Sir, young master Tarquin was at the hospital just now."

Ever since the day of the wolf attack during the family’s ancestral rites, Gideon had been recuperating in the hospital.

Hearing this, Gideon narrowed his eyes slightly, "Elijah's condition acted up again?"

"No, it was Ms. Thorne who fainted. Master Tarquin was here to see her, but they've both left now."

Leaning against his pillow, Gideon took a sip from his water glass, "How has Elijah been these past few days?"

"Not sure. Master Tarquin has stationed a lot of security around the estate, our people can't get in. But judging from the incident during the ancestral rites, it's almost certain Elijah has dissociative identity disorder!"

"Definitely not. Those wolves targeted Elijah; Master Tarquin would never harm Elijah. It must be someone else's doing, but without finding that animal trainer, we can't trace the mastermind."

"Forget it then, Tarquin will be more vigilant than us. He won't let anything happen to Elijah! If he can't protect Elijah, we stand no chance. Better we focus on our own issues. Have we made contact with Alpha yet?"

His confidant shook his head, "Sent many messages, all ignored. I'm starting to think the intel Mr. E gave us might be off."

'Mr. E' referred to the top-tier hacker 'Baby ET's Support One', Elliot.

Gideon dismissed the thought, "Unlikely. Mr. E wouldn’t joke about his reputation. It’s normal for Alpha not to respond; ever since his rise, too many have sought him out. How many can actually reach him? He’s as enigmatic as Mr. E!"

He mused, "All the capable ones are eccentrics!"
