Chapter 100:

Early on the second day, Elyse was already up, shouldering her handbag as she made her way downstairs. Driscoll, noticing her early start, approached with a concerned look. “You’re up quite early today. What’s the reason?”

“I need to practice, so I’m heading out early,” Elyse quickly excused herself and briskly exited the house, skipping breakfast. Driscoll watched her departure, a sigh escaping him as he caught the still-present anger on her face.

Later, Jayden began his day, wheeling himself to the dining table. Noticing Elyse’s absence, he inquired nonchalantly, “Hasn’t she gotten up yet? Isn’t she supposed to be at work?”

“She’s already left,” Driscoll replied, his voice tinged with anxiety.

With a slight frown, Jayden pressed, “She’s still upset, isn’t she?” After a brief pause, Driscoll admitted, “Yes, it seems so.” Jayden’s expression darkened, and he muttered through clenched teeth, “Perhaps I’ve been too lenient with her.” Driscoll sighed deeply, sensing the gravity of the discord between Jayden and Elyse was more severe than ever.
