Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 73:

When a moment passed and Elyse still said nothing, a sly glint entered Brook’s eyes. “You can’t answer, can you?” he asked in a voice that was louder than usual. “Did you marry Jayden because you had no other options back then?”

Jayden was silent too, but his clenched fists betrayed his feelings. In truth, he was surprised to find that he cared about Elyse’s answer more than he initially thought. He was desperate to know whether she had feelings for him or if it had all been wishful thinking. He felt that his doubts were justified. Who would fall in love with a cripple, anyway? The longer Elyse thought about how best to handle the question, the longer Jayden suffered in silence.

“I’m sorry for taking so long,” she finally said. “I don’t take your question lightly, so I needed to think carefully about my feelings for Jayden.” She took Jayden’s hands then, oblivious to the turmoil inside him. “All I know for sure is that my feelings for him are deeper and stronger than they were when I first met him.”

Brook’s eyes narrowed with interest. “What do you mean by that?”

“As you may already know, we got married because both of our partners bailed on us at the last minute. That was all it was at first. But after spending some time together, our relationship…” Elyse trailed off, trying to find the right words to describe their current relationship, only to realize that she couldn’t.

But Jayden understood what she wanted to say. “We are bonding,” he interjected.
