Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1807

Winona was quick to validate her. [Right?! That is exactly how I felt when I saw him at the banquet today!]

[He even shook my hand, and it gave me full-body chills,] Elysia replied.

[Wait, didn't you head home with the kids?] Winona asked. [How did you even run into him?]

[I bumped into Booker's cousin, Diane, on the way back. We chatted for a bit. Turns out she's dating Jae-hyun, and they were together.]

[If both of our alarm bells are going off, that means there's definitely something wrong with this guy!] Winona declared.

[Whether there is or isn't, we need to stay far away from him. Women's intuition is a very real thing, and it rarely misses.]

[Agreed,] Winona texted back. [Keep your distance and avoid him at all costs. Where are you now?]

[About half an hour from home. You?]

[I'm with Janelle. We're almost at the Huber estate.]

[Janelle is wonderful to you, so just relax and enjoy your time there. But if you ever feel uncomfortable, just give me a signal and I'll find an excuse to bring you over to my place.]

Winona sent back a flurry of hugging and kissing emojis. [Got it!]

The two of them chatted back and forth for a while, but Blossom remained noticeably silent in the group.

Both knew she had left with Lancelot and figured they were probably caught up in a deep conversation, so neither dared to interrupt her.

Half an hour later, Elysia's car pulled up to Number One Mansion.

Before she could even step out of the vehicle, she spotted two very familiar figures waiting near the entrance.

Her eyes lit up with unbridled joy. She practically threw the door open and rushed toward them. "Mom! Dad!"

"Irene!" Pamela cried out, hurrying over to pull her into a tight embrace.

Clayton followed close behind, his face stretched into a warm, easy smile.

Elysia hugged Pamela fiercely before throwing her arms around Clayton.

"Why didn't you tell us you were coming?" she asked, laughing. "The kids and I would have picked you up at the airport!"

"We wanted it to be a surprise!" Clayton chuckled.
