Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 845

Seeing the place, something about it struck a chord of familiarity within him.

It wasn't until a moment of deep reflection that he recalled the name "Spirit Village" from amongst Elizabeth's belongings.

Putting together Elizabeth's dreams and his own obsession with her, it wasn't hard to guess where the treasure was located!

"You head to Spirit Village first, take someone with you. Once you've settled Elysia, I'll follow immediately!"

"..." Axel wasted no time, turning on his heel and leaving.

Meanwhile, Keith had regrouped with his own crew.

Seeing him in a state, they were surprised, "What happened?"

Keith's lips were pressed tightly together, he was panting heavily, gritting his teeth, "Back to town, quick!"

"Back to the village?"

"Yes!"

"What about Miss Thorne? She's been looking forward to meeting her."

Keith frowned, "Next time!"

Sensing his mood was off, his men didn't dare to probe further and quickly started the car.

Keith leaned back in the rear seat, ignoring the wound on his thigh, closing his eyes to quell his rage.

He hadn't expected Tarquin to ambush him there!

And if Tarquin had discovered that place, he must have also found out about Spirit Village!

Without a doubt, Tarquin had already sent men there!

The treasure was in Spirit Village!

He couldn't worry about Elysia now; he had to get back to the treasure first, figuring out how to move it somewhere safe.

He couldn't let Tarquin find the treasure first!

It was his; Tarquin couldn't take her away!

After a while, Keith opened his eyes, tearing his pants to reveal the wound on his thigh.

No sooner had Axel left, Tarquin received a call from Lowell,

"Tarquin, finally got a lead on Keith's identity. He's from Border City, part of the Inkster family!"

Tarquin frowned, "Border City? The Inkster family?"

Never heard of it!

"Right, his father's name is Phineas Inkster. Keith is the youngest Inkster, originally named Quinlan Inkster. He has two older brothers and a sister, but now they're all missing."

"Missing?"

"Yeah, as in their fate is unknown. No one's seen them alive, nor found their bodies."

"…Is it related to the Bradford family?"

"Don't know, but from what we've dug up, the Inskters had no prior connections or dealings with the Bradfords. However, the year the Inksters went missing, Gideon had visited Border City."

Meaning, the Inksters and the Bradfords had no relationship, no interactions, no acquaintances.

But, the mysterious disappearance of the Inkster family might have something to do with the Bradfords.
