Chapter 365:

Elyse picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, savoring the strong aroma that left a fragrant taste in her mouth. Driscoll savored a sip from his cup, then remarked deliberately, “Ah, Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee. The water temperature was spot on, enhancing its full-bodied flavor.”

Cody raised an eyebrow in surprise. “You can tell just from the taste?”

“I traveled there when I was younger; after tasting it once, I couldn’t forget,” Driscoll smiled warmly.

Cody turned to Elyse. “Weren’t you supposed to be rehearsing at the Celestial Sounds Symphony today?”

Cody frowned, puzzled. “How did you miss your chance to get reinstated?”

She fell silent, unable to find the right words to explain. Driscoll had come prepared to explain everything and take the blame, but Elyse shook her head, stopping him. She took a breath and said, “I was kidnapped.”

After listening to the whole story, Cody was stunned. “You were kidnapped? And your sister orchestrated this?”

Elyse nodded with a bitter smile. “But why would she set a trap for you? You’re family.”
