Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 55:

Lanny just told me that Mabel slept with Theo Ward,” Elyse said in a conflicted tone. “He wants us to go home to deal with the matter.”

Peyton was horrified by the mention of Theo’s name. “Wait, what? Theo Ward? He slept with your sister? Weren’t you engaged to him before?”

Out of everyone present, Jayden was the most collected. He had looked into both Elyse and Theo. “Theo might not be a notorious playboy, but he was far from being a saint.

Peyton rolled his eyes. “Why are you surprised? He is your husband, of course, your husband had to investigate him.”
