Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Chapter 224
Elysia paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
"You're right. I've been carrying a lot of worries lately, but I didn't want to trouble you kids with them.*
"Well rather be involved than worried sick. Besides, haven't you always said two heads are better than one? You should share what's on your mind. Together, we might just figure it out" said Elliot
Elysia sighed deeply, hesitant to bring up Winona's situation.
After all Winona's troubles might be linked to a criminal investigation, and she didn't want her children getting involved.
She then mentioned Elijah, "Lately, I've been trying to help this kid, the one I told you about before, who's struggling with mental health
issues."
"Eljah?"
Elliot was aware of Elijah's existence but didn't know he was his own brother. He had always thought Elijah was the child of Tarquin and
another woman.
"Yes, exactly! But now, there's a complicated issue. Some people seem to not want Elijah to get better, so they're against me treating
him."
Elliot knew Elysia was talking about Allegra. He pretended to be clueless. "Did they threaten you?"
Yes.
"And what about Elijah's dad? Didn't he step in to say something, to warn those people off?"
Tm not entirely sure. He did say that no one would treat me like that again."
Elliot frowned slightly, realizing that Tarquin's handling of Allegra had been kept from Elysia.
Why isn't he speaking up?
Elysia, not fully understanding their family dynamics, would naturally still be afraid.
"So, you want to keep helping Elijah but are afraid of getting hurt, right?"
Elysia quickly nodded. It was one thing if it was just her, but now Elliot and Evan were involved too. She couldn't just think about Elijah without considering her
sons.
Elliot thought for a moment and then said, "Actually, this problem isn't too hard to solve."
"Really? Do you have an idea?"
"Yes. Think about it, Mom. Those people's goal is to stop you from treating Elijah. If you stop treating him, they wouldn't care about you seeing him anymore."
Elysia was puzzled, "But I'm seeing Elijah to treat him."
"You can still treat him, just without letting anyone know."
*Secretly?"
"Yes!"
"No, that's too risky. If those people find out, it would be even more dangerous."
Then make sure they don't find out."
"How can I possibly do that?"
Elliot said, "Make them lose interest, and they'll give up on snooping."

Elliot smiled indulgently, "Just publicly announce that Elijah is already better."

Elysia was taken aback when Elliot
continued to explain, "If everyone
believes Elijah is already cured, who
would bother keeping an

eye on him?
Even if you're with Elijah every day, no one would care anymore. Why are they threatening you now? Because they think you can cure Elijah. But if Elijah is already 'cured', you become irrelevant to them." The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest

"Right! That could work! Pretend
Elijah is already better, then I can get close to him and treat him in secret.

But wait those people won't easily believe Elijah is cured. We need a way to convince them, but with Elijah's
mental health issues, I can't just make him act cured." The content is on Novelxo.org! Read the latest chapter there!
Elliot sighed inwardly, thinking, Oh, dear Mom.
"That part is even
simpler."
