Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1767

"I'm rooting for you, man!"

Keaton froze, utterly bewildered. "What?"

Callum smiled broadly.

"The second I saw you today, I knew you'd changed. You've become so mature and grounded."

"You used to be such a careless playboy, never taking anything seriously. Now you look like a proper gentleman, a real decent family man."

"I was wondering who had the power to reform you like this. It makes perfect sense that it's Winona!"

"She always was incredible, an absolute goddess."

Keaton was entirely lost. "Did you hear a word I just said?"

Callum nodded with a grin.

"Loud and clear. You're head over heels for Winona."

Keaton looked at him suspiciously. "And you aren't mad? You aren't jealous?"

Callum shook his head and let out a long exhale.

"In the past? Sure, I would've been furious. I probably would've beaten you to a pulp. But now... not anymore."

"Why not?" Keaton pressed instantly.

"Because I'm not in love with her anymore," Callum said, staring out at the horizon.

Keaton was shocked. "You're not?"

Callum nodded. "I gave my heart to someone else. I fell in love with another girl."

"Who?"

Callum's expression softened.

"An ordinary girl from abroad. You guys haven't met her, but I owe my life to her."

"When I escaped that fire, the people who took me were still hunting me down. I was severely injured and wouldn't have made it, but she found me."

"Her family didn't have much money, but she gave everything she had to nurse me back to health. I was incredibly moved, and spending so much time together, the feelings just naturally grew."

"As soon as my memory came back, I proposed to her. We're officially married now."

Keaton's eyes went wide. "Are... are you serious?"
