My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 1324

Christine was desperately waiting in her house for Joel and Maddie to drive over to the point where she burst in tears. When she opened the door, she was startled by the sight of a handsome and elegant man following behind Maddie and asked, “Maddie, who is he?”

A little embarrassed by the question, Maddie blushed as she introduced, “This is my husband, Joel.” She had always kept Joel a secret. Her colleagues and family did not even know of his existence. So, it was actually the first time that she had introduced him to anyone.

Christine was shocked to see Joel because she had often heard from her family’s rumor mill about Maddie’s husband. Rumors had it that he was a 40-year-old loner who could not find any maiden to marry in Bayside City. How embarrassing is that? In fact, she had almost reckoned that Maddie’s family wanted to marry Maddie off for Joel’s extravagant betrothal gift of one hundred thousand. I can’t believe Maddie’s husband turns out to be this outstanding.

Joel was surprised as well when he saw her. Maddie had briefly informed him about the incident on the way. I didn’t even know that Christine’s actually a cousin of Maddie’s? Isn’t Christine Stanley’s girlfriend? She is also Maddie’s cousin! This is so unbelievable. Wait. Why isn’t Stanley here when Christine needs help? For God’s sake, he’s terrible at relationships! Let’s forget about that; we should find Tawny first.

The three of them headed out in the dark and drove around in search of Tawny. She would not be able to go far since she was here for less than a month and did not have any friends while being unfamiliar with the surroundings.

Her brother was nowhere to be found too as he did not give a damn about his own sister. Instead, Christine and Maddie were the ones worried.

Joel figured that aimlessly driving around was not a good idea to look for Tawny, so he went to make a phone call and within a few minutes, he found out where Tawny was. “She’s at the Royal Oak pub.”

Therefore, the three of them hurried to the pub. Finally, they found Tawny hanging out at the corner of the pub. Christine approached and gave her a slap. “Is running away all you know? Do you have any idea how worried we are?” she bellowed.

Tawny was dumbstruck by the sudden attack. She stood up furiously and raised her hand in an attempt to return the slap, but froze at the sight of Maddie and a handsome man standing behind Christine.
