Chapter 135:

Judy’s eyes filled with tears as she stared at the love bite on Jayden’s neck. Had it happened just last night? Why else would that mark be there? They must have stayed up late, too busy engaging in intimacy to come down on time this morning. Jealousy gnawed at Judy; she clenched her teeth tightly.

Driscoll noticed the mark too and sighed in relief; they must have reconciled. He mentioned casually, “I’ll have someone take breakfast up to Mrs. Owen later. She needs to eat.”

Jayden agreed immediately, “Absolutely. We can’t have her going hungry.”

Judy bowed her head silently. Her face remained composed, but inside, she was seething. She had complained of hunger, and Jayden had dismissed her, yet he was considerate towards Elyse. Why couldn’t he see that she was just as hungry? Her feelings of love and injustice kept her quiet throughout Jayden’s meal. Once he had finished, he retreated to his study, leaving her alone. Her heart grew heavier.

Meanwhile, a sandwich and a bottle of warm milk were ready in the kitchen. Seeing this, Judy approached the cook with a forced smile. “Is someone taking that to Elyse? I’m free right now; I could do it.”

The chef looked puzzled by her eagerness and replied cautiously, “I need to check with Driscoll first.”

“Why bother him for just delivering breakfast? I’ll take it,” Judy insisted, grabbing the tray. She exited with the breakfast, ignoring the chef’s calls to stop.
