Chapter 96:

Elyse noticed Jayden seemed unwell and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong with you?”

“I was drugged. Stay away from me. I might not be able to control myself,” he warned. He was trying hard to restrain himself, but his gaze held an intense mix of obsession and fervor as he looked at Elyse. The intensity in his eyes startled Elyse. Despite their close relationship, she wasn’t prepared to take things further. She bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, then quickly exited the bathroom.

Settling on the sofa, she waited for the drug’s effects to subside. It was then she heard Brook at the door.

“Elyse, is Jayden in his room?” he called out.

Instantly on alert, Elyse walked to the door and responded calmly, “Jayden has fallen asleep. He drank too much and we’re getting ready for bed. What do you need?”

“Just checking on him. I hadn’t seen him around,” Brook replied.

“We’re heading to bed now,” Elyse didn’t quite trust him.

“Okay then. Good night,” Brook said.

Elyse leaned against the door, listening until Brook’s footsteps faded away. After ensuring no one was at the door, she sighed with relief and returned to the sofa, where she stayed throughout the night.
