Chapter 250:

Feeling a bit self-conscious, Elyse turned and found herself staring directly into Corrie’s piercing and jealous gaze. Corrie didn’t mask her jealousy; instead, she shot a sly grin that said it all. Elyse felt uneasy, a sense of discomfort settling in.

At that moment, a guest approached them beaming and remarked, “Mr. Owen, I must say, I envy the love shared between you and your wife.” Another guest chimed in, “They say Mr. Owen is aloof, but it seems he showers all his affection on his wife.”

The guests all sang praises of Elyse and Jayden’s love. Suddenly, Corrie called out Jayden’s name, capturing everyone’s attention. When Jayden looked at her, he saw the sorrow in her eyes. As a tear slipped down her cheek, she fainted right in front of Jayden.

The unexpected turn of events shocked the crowd, leading to gasps and directing everyone’s gaze toward them. “Corrie Bates!” Jayden cried out, startled, as she fainted. Unlike his Elyse, Corrie didn’t respond. In that moment, Elyse felt a profound disinterest in anything to do with him.

Suddenly, Jayden pulled her into his arms and kissed her, catching everyone by surprise. Their stunned faces mirrored their shock. “Whoa!” The crowd gasped, marveling at the display of affection. It was clear how deeply Jayden and Elyse loved each other.
