Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1841

As for exactly how he was going to catch him, he had a plan.

Soren thought for another moment and said.

"I understand your intentions. Wait for my news. I'll contact you later."

"Alright."

After hanging up, Tarquin smoked quietly in the designated smoking area.

Wyatt Gonzalez had sent him a picture with the caption.

[I'm a patient now too. You really stabbed me deep. It hurts like hell!]

Tarquin frowned and ignored him.

Just as he put his phone away, another message popped up. Assuming it was Wyatt again, he ignored it.

It wasn't until he had smoked several more cigarettes and pulled his phone out to check the time that he realized the message was from Rizzo.

Tarquin stared at the message and narrowed his eyes.

To be perfectly honest, seeing a message from Rizzo put him in a much better mood than seeing one from Wyatt!

...

Early the next morning, just as the sky was turning gray, Tarquin received a call from Soren.

"Tarquin, the operation has been approved!"

"A massive deployment of soldiers and armed police is already heading to the Sky City border. Barring any surprises, the operation will commence this morning. Get yourself ready."

Tarquin wasn't surprised that the operation was approved.

On a grander scale, Zhinora was the strictest country in the region when it came to combating drugs, showing absolute zero tolerance for traffickers!

The nation had been waiting for the right moment to storm the Golden Triangle and launch a massive raid!

On a more specific level, Warrick's actions yesterday showed blatant disrespect for Zhinora's Drug Enforcement Division. It was a naked provocation!

This had escalated to a matter of national dignity!

Zhinora was generally peaceful, but that didn't mean they lacked a temper. When their citizens were trampled by criminals, the nation wouldn't tolerate it. They had to strike back!

On a personal level, Axel was the descendant of heroes, coming from a pristine lineage. He deserved to be protected and cared for!

They couldn't let their heroes' sacrifices be in vain!

Soren added, "I'm tied up here at the moment, but I've already made the necessary arrangements. If you need any help, just let me know."

"Alright, thank you, Soren."

After hanging up, Tarquin immediately sent out a text message.

Soon after, he received a call from Rizzo.

Rizzo asked frantically, "Did you just see my message?!"

Tarquin replied, "I saw it last night."

Rizzo was exasperated. "If you saw it last night, why are you only replying now?"

Because the operation hadn't been approved last night!

Tarquin didn't bother explaining. He simply said, "Do something for me."

Rizzo immediately answered, "No problem! But you have to give me the antidote first!"

Over the past few days, Tarquin hadn't been eating or sleeping well because of Axel.

Rizzo was the same—he couldn't eat or sleep, constantly obsessing over Tarquin!
