Chapter 207:

When Elyse returned home joyfully, she noticed Jayden in the garden sipping tea. She approached and inquired, “Have you been waiting here for me for a long time?”

Jayden glanced up at her and replied, “No.”

Elyse gave an awkward smile and mentioned, “I’m going to change my clothes.” She then hurried off.

Jayden observed her cautious demeanor, shook his head, and muttered affectionately yet helplessly, “Just like a startled rabbit.”

Once Elyse had changed and come back downstairs, she noticed several servants bustling around with various items. She approached curiously and saw Driscoll directing the servants to tidy up the collection room. All the items being moved belonged to Jayden. She wondered if they were relocating these items.

“Where are all these things being moved to?” she asked with curiosity.

Upon spotting her, Driscoll greeted her warmly. Elyse nodded. Her eyes then sparkled as she spotted her cherished motorcycle. Driscoll watched her as she walked over and caressed the silver motorcycle. He then gently pulled her away and said with a smile, “Mr. Owens’ collections are cleaned here every three months. Since the collection room isn’t opened often, it tends to gather dust.”

Elyse had wanted to touch her silver motorcycle even in her dreams. Now that she finally could, she was reluctant to pull her hand away when Driscoll intervened.
