Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1336

Because in the few times they’d met, Priscilla couldn’t help but run her mouth like she was some kind of lottery winner who’d just hit it big.

Every conversation with her was the same: brag about her precious son, trash her daughter-in-law.

She seemed completely oblivious to the fact that her son had married into the Livingston family, and all their fancy dinners and country club invites came courtesy of the Newsoms.

If you listened to Priscilla, though, you’d think it was the Newsoms who should be grateful her boy even looked their way!

She honestly believed Winona wasn’t good enough for her son. To hear Priscilla tell it, Winona was nothing but a pretty face—a gold-digger who couldn’t boil an egg, let alone clean a house, and didn’t lift a finger for her in-laws.

She’d rant, “That little tramp won’t last long. Just you wait—if she doesn’t give me a foot rub or massage my shoulders, I’ll make sure my son divorces her!”

What a piece of work.

Who did Priscilla think she was? The Queen Mother? Expecting foot baths and massages, threatening to have her son toss his wife out like last week’s leftovers?

Honestly, the woman had zero class. If anything, the Livingstons should be lighting candles in gratitude they landed someone like Winona!

She’s gorgeous and sweet—if Winona were my daughter-in-law, I’d be over the moon. I’d spoil her rotten, treat her like a princess! No one would dare mess with her—not even Keaton. If he so much as looked at her the wrong way, I’d be the first to set him straight.

Thinking about Priscilla, I couldn’t decide if I was more annoyed or jealous.

Even someone like Priscilla managed to snag a daughter-in-law.

And here I am—waiting, hoping, praying for a daughter-in-law of my own, but not even a shadow of one appears.

Sigh.

Poor Winona.

Honestly, I felt bad for myself, too.

She’d been unlucky in love; me, I couldn’t seem to find a daughter-in-law no matter how hard I tried.

Janelle gave Winona’s hand a gentle pat, her heart aching for her.

“Out with the old, in with the new, honey. There are plenty of good men out there—don’t let some jerk drain your spirit. The next one will be better!”
