Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem



Clayton frowned slightly, nodding to show he understood the gravity of the situation.

When they delved into Elysia's past, they discovered Blossom and Winona, two girls who had been nothing short of angels to their daughter. Gratitude filled Clayton's heart.

"I've got friends over in Silver City. I'll come with you," he announced.

At his words, Pamela clutched Elysia's hand tighter, reassuring her, "Don't worry, Irene. Mom's coming too."

Tarquin just sighed, seemingly resigned.

Seeing the family's determination, they all agreed to make the trip to Silver City together.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Clayton arranged a private jet, and they arrived the same day.

Silver City was renowned as a tourist hotspot, famed for its ancient ruins and historic architecture.

They arrived under the guise of tourists.

Once in Silver City, they didn't head straight to Blossom's parents. Instead, they checked into a hotel close to the archaeological site to settle in first.

With the family spanning from the elderly to the young, and one member in a wheelchair not fully present mentally, no one suspected they were on a mission to save someone.

After settling in, Evan wasted no time slipping out of the hotel.

Following the plan they had laid out on the flight, Evan sneaked into the archaeological site under the pretense of being a playful kid.

He accidentally stumbled into the living quarters of the archaeologists.

And then, quite by accident, he barged into the room where Blossom's parents were staying.

At that moment, Hollis was sitting in a chair, tears rolling down her face, while Folly Blythe paced the room anxiously, frowning deeply. Seeing Evan, the couple was taken aback.

They mistook Evan for Elijah!

Before they could get a word out, Evan gestured for them to be silent.

The next second, Folly's phone rang. The voice of a kidnapper boomed through,

"Who's the kid that just entered your room?!"

Evan shook his head, flashing a note he had prepared earlier.

Folly glanced at it and quickly replied,

"I don't know him. Just a kid came in, no adults."

The kidnapper, of course, couldn't imagine that a child could be part of a rescue operation,

"I'm warning you, no tricks. We're watching every move. Try anything, and we'll end this!"

"We're not playing any games. Where's my daughter? Don't hurt her!"

"As long as you cooperate, your daughter will be fine. Just get those artifacts out!"

Evan then showed another note, written by Tarquin: requesting a video call with Blossom.

Folly immediately told the kidnapper,

"I've got a plan. We can act tonight. Arrange transportation, and I'll bring you in to pick up the artifacts. But first, I need to see my daughter alive! I want a video call!"

The kidnapper hesitated for a moment, "Wait! And get that kid out of there!"

Folly looked at Evan, who mimed reassuringly,

Don't worry, we'll save Blossom!

Tears welled up in Blossom's parents' eyes. Fearing the room might be bugged, they remained silent, watching Evan leave.

Evan, playing his part to the hilt, cried out in the courtyard, "Daddy, Mommy, where are you?"

Soon, a security guard approached, mistaking him for a child separated from his parents, and escorted him out.

The kidnappers, watching Evan leave, dismissed him as a non-threat and hung up.

After a while, using Blossom's phone, the kidnappers initiated a video call to her parents.

On the screen, Blossom was tied to a chair, her mouth sealed with duct tape, tears streaming down her face as she whimpered.

Her parents broke down, crying out, "Blossom, oh Blossom..."

Meanwhile, the Patel family had tracked Blossom's phone signal, quickly pinpointing her location.

For them, such tracking was a piece of cake!

Axel, upon receiving the news, didn't wait for Tarquin's command and sprung into action!
