Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 888

Keith hesitated, and Tarquin, with a stern face, said, "None of these conditions can be dropped. If you don't agree, then we have nothing to talk about! I might forcibly keep my little girl here, and she might resent me for it. But do you think, if you force her away from her mother, she won't resent you? She likes you, sure, but she loves her mom too!"

The only way to spare our little girl any heartache is for both parties to reconcile.

If we can't come to an agreement, then we'll just have to let our little girl see the discord between us, which will only upset her.

Keith frowned deeply, silent for a moment before finally agreeing, "Fine, I agree!"

With that, he stood up and headed for the yard, eager to take his little girl away, not wanting to spend another second in this place.

The three little ones were displeased but found themselves at a loss.

Elliot and Elijah quickly followed Keith out, to prevent him from doing anything to their mom.

Evan clenched his small fists, his face dark with determination as he told Tarquin, "Let me go! I'll protect my little sister!"

Tarquin immediately refused, "You're better off staying here to protect your mother. I have someone else in mind for the job."

The thought of Keith taking his little girl was infuriating enough, let alone letting him take both of his kids.

Evan was skilled, sure, but impulsive and too quick to resolve things with his fists, unlike Elliot and Elijah who were more level-headed. Sending him could only lead to trouble.

So, he couldn't let him go.

He continued, "I've made terms with Keith. We can see our little girl anytime. I've also arranged for someone to look after her daily needs, so you can stay updated on her every move. And even though we don't like Keith, one thing's for sure: he loves our little girl. He won't let her suffer or harm her in any way. She's safe with him, and she might even be happy."

Elysia sniffled, "I want to go with her. I can take care of her daily needs."

Tarquin immediately refused. If Elysia went, Keith would be overjoyed!

He would never send his wife into Keith's clutches!

"You don't know self-defense. You can't protect our little girl. It's not suitable for you to go. I've arranged for a female bodyguard to go instead."
