Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1308

Victor frowned, silent for a moment before he asked,

“You’re sure this Ms. Thorne isn’t from the medical field?”

“Positive. Folks in Jindale City said she only did a year at college, and it wasn’t even anything close to medicine. Her family’s in business—not a single doctor among them. But she does seem to have a knack for child psychology.”

The assistant paused, then suggested,

“Should I call Miss Stevenson now and get more details?”

“No need. I’ll just ask Sabrina myself.”

At that moment, Sabrina was still over in Jindale City. When Victor’s call came through, she sounded thrilled.

“Grandpa! Missed me already?”

Victor’s face was still stern, but seeing his granddaughter, he couldn’t help but smile a little, feigning annoyance.

“Miss you? Not a chance!”

Sabrina giggled, “But I miss you, Grandpa!”

“Oh, you do? Well, just don’t go causing me any more trouble, you hear? Did you get into it with Tarquin’s wife again?”

Sabrina frowned. “You mean Elysia?”

“I don’t care what her name is. All I know is she’s Tarquin’s wife.”

Sabrina was clearly annoyed now.

“She’s something else, isn’t she? Complaining about me all the way to you! I didn’t pick a fight with her, I just can’t stand her attitude.”

“She throws her weight around just because her husband’s a big shot. Acts like she’s royalty and I’m supposed to bow and scrape!”

“Sure, the Bradfords are a powerful family, but that doesn’t mean the Stevensons are pushovers! If I just rolled over and took it, it’d be an embarrassment to all of us. No way I’m letting that happen.”

Sabrina wasn’t exactly known for her medical skills—or her people skills—but she knew how to play her grandpa.

Victor was highly respected in the medical field. He was honest, humble, and genuinely valued talent.

But as the head of the Medical & Pharmaceutical Association, he was surrounded by people eager to flatter him. Over the years, all that praise had gotten to his head a bit, and he couldn’t stand to hear anyone say a bad word about the Stevenson family.

Plus, with Sabrina being his only granddaughter, he was always a little soft on her.
