Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 240:

“You say you have no feelings for Corrie, but your concern for her was evident the moment you encountered her. Why does her disastrous blind date matter to you?” Elyse challenged.

Hearing that, Jayden sensed her jealousy stirring once more. “I merely asked. You’re overthinking it,” he explained helplessly.

Elyse’s heart sank at his response. “What do you mean by overthinking? Corrie is clearly targeting me, trying to embarrass me. Didn’t you notice?”

Jayden remained silent, his thoughts a mystery. Elyse felt disheartened. She turned away, sadness clouding her eyes. “Forget it. It doesn’t matter.”

Her emotions were always dismissed, and he always remained indifferent. Observing her expression signaling a desire to end the conversation, Jayden felt a surge of frustration.

Corrie appeared in a mess, her high heels slipping from her feet as she was dragged away. She struggled to keep them on. The moment Clive released his grip, she hastily slipped on her shoes and snapped, “Are you out of your mind?”

Clive retrieved a tissue to cleanse his hands, his disgust evident. Pushing him away, Corrie demanded, “Say something.”
