Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem



Keith's brow was furrowed, his nerves on edge.

He bit down on his back teeth, about to swing the car door open and check things out, when the other vehicle suddenly shot off.

As the red light turned green, Keith's car started moving forward.

Rolling down the window, he leaned out to look. The SUV had already zoomed past the intersection, speeding off into the distance, leaving them far behind.

He wanted to tell the driver to speed up, but he was worried about scaring his precious one.

And with his precious one in the car, he didn't dare let the driver race.

Left with no choice, he had to give up the pursuit.

Raising the window, he darkened his face in thought for a moment, then pulled out his phone and made a call,

"Any progress on the matter I asked you to investigate?"

"We've got a bit of news. Heard that person is also in Jindale City, but we haven't pinpointed their exact location yet."

"Speed it up, and let me know immediately if there's any news!"

Hanging up, Keith let out a sigh.

He had taken Elliot's words to heart and had people looking into it.

How he had managed to escape from Gideon's clutches only to fall into the hands of traffickers was hard to trace.

But the affair in Hill Village was still investigable.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

If the one who took him up the mountain that night wasn't Kendrick...

Keith's brow was locked, he bit down hard on his back teeth, a fierce glint flashing in the corner of his eye!

...

At Number One Mansion.

After Tarquin had tucked Elysia and Emmett into bed, he went out.

He wanted to have a detailed discussion with the police about the Bed and Breakfast incident.

Without a doubt, the mysterious person had something to do with the Farmjoy Estate; it might even be one of his hideouts.

He wanted to hear the police's plans, and also to see if they had any information on the mysterious person.

Elijah and Elliot were busy in the small study.

Having Keith take their sister away again, the three brothers were both upset and angry!

They were eager to clear up the matter with Keith and the mysterious person, then lock them all up and bring their sister back! Elliot, with a clear train of thought, realized that to investigate the mysterious person, they had to start with Keith.

They had to start with Keith!

After Keith took their sister today, he finally understood something.

The promise from those people not to harm their sister again might not be because Keith had struck some deal with them.

It could also be that Keith had something on them!

Meaning, they had vulnerabilities that Keith was exploiting.

Keith used these vulnerabilities to warn and threaten them not to harm their sister again.

If that was the case, then they needed to pry Keith's mouth open even more urgently.

Perhaps by doing so, they could directly obtain the mysterious person's vulnerabilities from Keith and take him down in one fell swoop! Therefore, Elliot was now eagerly investigating the Hill Village affair, that is, the matter between Kendrick and Keith.

To get Keith to talk, they had to start with the Hill Village affair!

At the very least, they had to make Keith drop his hatred for Tarquin first!

Yesterday, Lowell paid another visit to the Tyler couple, and the recording was already brought back.

Today at noon, Elijah had already cleared up all the surviving villagers of Hill Village and had arranged for people to visit them.

Looking at the information on the Hill Village villagers, Evan asked,

"Why are there question marks after Keith's foster parents? Can't find their information?"

Elijah nodded, "A cross means they have passed away, a tick means they are still alive, and a question mark means we couldn't find any info, whether they are dead or alive is unclear."

Evan said, "Back then, they abused Keith so badly, maybe they've been silenced."

Elijah shook his head, "Not necessarily. Keith was just a kid when he was in Hill Village, he didn't have the means to kill anyone."

"But he did when he grew up. After the Hill Village incident, maybe it was related to him."

Elijah said, "But, his foster parents disappeared when he was a child. The villagers all said they took the money and went to live the high life in the city, never to be heard from again. At that time, Keith definitely didn't have the ability to harm them."

Elliot stared at the information on Keith's foster parents for a while, thoughtful.

In the afternoon, the person responsible for the visits sent all the recordings over.

Elliot quickly arranged for Elijah and Evan to listen carefully, instructing them to jot down any useful information they heard.

The three brothers did not disturb each other, each listening to their own.

After finishing the visit recordings, Elliot compared the notes of the three brothers.

And what they found...

They unearthed a crucial piece of information!
