Chapter 421:

Freda knew Jayden’s background all too well.

In her view, Jayden was nothing but a castaway from the Owen family, carrying their name as a mere facade of authority. With a pointed finger and aggressive tone, Freda accused Elyse, “I saw you hugging my boyfriend. Is your man not keeping you satisfied, so now you’re eyeing mine?”

But with Jayden standing by her side, Elyse stood her ground fearlessly, hands on her hips. “If that’s what you think, then show me some evidence that I hugged your boyfriend. Otherwise, you’re just spreading lies!”

Freda was seething, ready to retaliate, but Theo intervened, holding her back.

When Freda turned to Theo, puzzled, she said, “Don’t be scared. I’ve got your back.”

But Theo’s eyes held no emotion as he looked at Freda. There was no gratitude for her support. To him, she was just another face in the crowd.

“This is all a misunderstanding. Let’s just call it quits and go our separate ways,” Theo suggested, his tone final.

His expression conveyed a sense of injustice, but he showed no interest in digging deeper.

He seemed to have taken a heavy blow but was unwilling to investigate further, leaving everyone with the impression that he was a noble soul.

Elyse, looking at Theo in shock, couldn’t believe how convincing his act was.
