Chapter 397:

“I’ve had enough of your excuses,” Brook thundered, his grip tightening around Jayden’s collar as he tried to yank him from his wheelchair. But just as he had missed when attempting to kick the wheelchair, he couldn’t move Jayden now. Brook’s eyes blazed crimson with blind fury, and losing all control, he drew back his fist and aimed at Jayden’s face.

The punch landed with a sickening thud, whipping Jayden’s head to the side. He let out a muffled grunt and wiped his lips with his thumb, his gaze turning icy. But he remained silent, his motives unclear.

Corrie was gripped with fear as her thoughts raced, envisioning Jayden revealing his true colors and shedding the pretense of his disability. She imagined Brook, all show and no strength, left defenseless against Jayden’s wrath. She had noticed that Jayden could have easily dodged Brook’s punch. Her sharp eyes noticed a flicker of hesitation that allowed the blow to connect. She felt sure Jayden was planning something.

Brook’s incandescent rage distorted his face, blinding him to Jayden’s true identity as the formidable head of the Bayzee Group and the likely retaliation he faced. On the other side, Debora gasped softly. Seeing Jayden’s bloodied lips, she felt a wave of sympathy. Still young, she remembered Jayden from the past when he stood tall and strong. Even in a simple black suit, he radiated an aura of royalty.

When Debora went abroad for her studies and heard that Jayden had been in a car accident, losing the use of his legs, she hadn’t thought much about it. She assumed Jayden remained the same, with that noble aura that made him untouchable. However, seeing him take a punch without reacting shattered that illusion.

Back when Jayden was the supposed successor of their grandpa, Debora hadn’t considered competing with him, believing the position rightfully his. But now, seeing the former golden boy confined in a wheelchair so vulnerably, she believed she still stood a chance, even though he was the founder of the Bayzee Group.
