Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 254:

Peyton felt a headache coming on and said, “Don’t you think you owe Elyse an explanation? She really cares about you.”

Jayden’s expression remained unreadable, showing little emotion. “You know the dangers I constantly face. I can’t selfishly involve her in that.”

Elyse was delicate, and Jayden felt it was his duty to protect her from the risks of his world, prioritizing her safety above everything. Realizing Jayden’s firm stance, Peyton stopped trying to change his mind and suggested, “I’ll take care of Corrie. You should head home.”

Jayden looked like he was about to argue, but Peyton cut him off, saying, “You’re hurt as well, and you’ve neglected Elyse today.”

Jayden fell silent, confronting the fact that he had indeed let Elyse down. Thus, he decided to go home. Peyton saw Jayden off, showing no concern for Corrie’s well-being.

On the other hand, when Elyse woke up, she felt something was off and reached out for a hand, expecting to find Tracy’s familiar touch. To her surprise, the hand she touched was not as soft as Tracy’s. Startled, Elyse’s eyes snapped open to see Jayden beside her, causing her to quickly suppress her swirling emotions.
