Chapter 69:

Upon returning home from the hospital, Elyse seemed slightly weakened. Driscoll approached her with a worried expression, asking, “Are you feeling okay?”

“I’m just a bit weak,” she responded, patting her stomach gently and smiling.

Observing her, Jayden commented, “That’s what happens when you act foolishly.”

“I am not foolish,” Elyse’s smile faded, and she stood up abruptly, clearly upset.

Ignoring her discomfort, Jayden coldly added, “Had you been smarter, you wouldn’t have landed in the hospital.”

“Jayden!” Elyse exclaimed, feeling wronged. “You’re so annoying!”

She stormed upstairs with a snort, and the sound of her slamming the door echoed down to the first floor.

Stunned for several seconds, Jayden finally grasped that Elyse had rebuked him. His face took on a bewildered expression as he mumbled, “How dare she call me annoying? Who was it that cared enough to bring her home? Haven’t I cared for her enough?” His frustration mounted.
