Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 289:

Elyse woke up in darkness, unable to discern her surroundings. Searching with her eyes, she found nothing. Lost and confused, she felt a pang of sadness as thoughts of Glenda, who favored Mabel over her, filled her mind. “Why doesn’t my mom care for me?” With a heavy heart, Elyse hung her head low, her eyes reflecting her despair.

From the shadows emerged a woman with long hair, clad in white. She approached Elyse with a gentle gaze, her eyes filled with compassion. Drawing near, the woman tenderly embraced Elyse, causing her to tremble. Though Elyse wanted to turn and see who held her, she found herself unable to move, held in the embrace.

“I love no one but you, my dear. You will always be my precious daughter,” the woman whispered. Earlier fear had gripped Elyse’s heart, but the woman’s voice had a calming effect, dispelling her sorrow. Remaining in the embrace, Elyse felt no fatigue, only basking in the warmth she had yearned for since childhood—the embrace of her mother.

Yet curiosity gnawed at her, compelling her to wonder about the woman’s identity. Restlessness grew within Elyse, prompting her to attempt turning around, her mind consumed with questions. Sensing Elyse’s restlessness, the woman released her and gently urged, “It’s time to wake up, my dear.”

With a gentle push, Elyse found herself able to move again. As she took a step forward, the darkness surrounding her began to fade. In an instant, Elyse’s eyes snapped open, finding herself under the white ceiling, feeling dazed.

Jayden’s face lit up with joy as he saw her wake up. Hastening to her side, he grasped her hand, his concern evident. “Are you alright?”
