Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 396:

In the afternoon, Jayden had planned to pick up Elyse when he received an unexpected call from Brook, urging him to meet at the Owen Group office for a discussion. After much deliberation, Jayden decided to honor Brook’s request.

Upon arrival at the Owen Group’s building, Jayden was escorted to Brook’s office by his assistant. When the assistant opened the door, Jayden’s gaze fell upon Debora and Corrie within the room. Given that Corrie’s parents were under Jayden’s control, she refrained from any impulsive actions. Upon catching sight of Jayden, Corrie averted her gaze, feigning unfamiliarity as she turned her face away from him. Meanwhile, Debora, leaning casually against the chair, bore a mischievous glint in her eyes.

Jayden glanced at the room’s occupants before finally focusing on Brook. With a direct yet composed demeanor, he inquired, “Brook, what is it you require of me?” Seated comfortably on the sofa, Brook twirled a pen between his fingers, a peculiar expression playing across his features. His tone sharp, Brook retorted, “You’re asking me? Aren’t you aware of your actions?” Unperturbed, Jayden responded coldly, “I’m no mind reader. How could I discern your thoughts?”

Clutching his jaw tightly, Brook continued, “I presumed you were incapable of causing any disruption. I never anticipated that you would secretly form the Bayzee Group right under the Owen Group’s nose.” Corrie, listening from a distance, was stunned. Jayden, the founder of Bayzee Group? No wonder its chairman’s identity remained shrouded in mystery, eluding public scrutiny. At that moment, Corrie regarded Jayden with emotions swirling in her eyes, her expression betraying a complex mixture of curiosity and admiration.

though he hadn’t anticipated Debora being the one to uncover it. Debora’s intellect seemed to overshadow Brook’s. Observing Jayden’s absentmindedness and blatant disregard, Brook’s anger surged like a storm. Rising from his seat, he stormed toward Jayden, his voice thundering, “Why keep the truth about Bayzee Group concealed? Are you planning to retaliate against me?
