Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 926

Keith was a bundle of raw nerves, "I'd rather not end him, but I'm not gonna let you use Baby like this!"

"Not kill him? What do you mean, 'not kill him'? You want to snatch Baby away? Baby might like you, but she's also fond of him. Don't forget, he's Baby's real dad, and you? You're just the villain in her story! The more time she spends with Tarquin, the more she's gonna choose him over you.

And let's not overlook the fact that Tarquin has Elysia by his side, along with Baby's four brothers. And what do you have? Nothing but your lonesome self. How do you plan to compete with Tarquin?

If you want Baby, Tarquin has to be out of the picture!"

Keith clenched his teeth in anger,

"I don't need your twisted logic, just let Baby go! Now, immediately!"

The other person sighed again,

"Relax, I'm not going to harm Baby. You know I'm only using her to get a grip on Tarquin.

You don't need to worry about Baby's safety. I'll drop her off at your place tonight. And that thing you wrecked? I'll compensate you for it.

Listen to me, go settle your score with Gideon. If you miss this chance, getting your sweet revenge will be much harder. Good opportunities don't come around often. You need to seize it.

Think about Kelsey, think about Phineas Inkster, think about your two brothers who met their tragic ends."

After saying that, the person hung up.

Keith sat in his car, so overwhelmed with emotion that veins throbbed visibly on his neck.

He trembled all over, his face contorted with rage, and his teeth clenched audibly!

It wasn't until a traffic cop came knocking on his window that he managed to calm himself down, didn't explain himself, and restarted the car.

With a fierce turn of the steering wheel, he made an illegal U-turn!

...

Forty minutes later.

In an abandoned factory in the suburbs.

A person dressed in a dark cloak and wearing a mask looked down at Baby with scrutiny.

"Yeah, our guys have been watching him. He told his bodyguards to leave and came here alone."

"Quite brave, heh heh."

He seemed to think of something else and added,

"Little Elysia and those kids are pretty interesting. If we get a chance today, grab them, and make sure they're alive."

"Understood!"

The masked person gave Baby one last look, chuckled sinisterly, then slowly walked towards the staircase.

Baby cried with reddened eyes, "I want my daddy, I want my daddy, wah..."

Suddenly!

A car came speeding in, crashing through the factory's old gates!
