Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 524:

Hours bled into one another as Glenda stewed in stony silence. Mabel’s pleas washed over her like waves, ignored.

Elyse, in stark contrast, radiated an unexpected calmness. Curled up on the sofa, she gently placed a hand on her stomach, a silent attempt to connect with the tiny life growing within.

Jayden, perched beside her, peered at her belly with a hint of wonder. “Boy or girl?” he inquired softly.

Elyse’s lips curved into a smile. “Don’t know yet. Does it matter?”

He pondered for a moment. “Not really. It’s yours, and that’s all that matters. I’ll love it no matter what.”

Elyse’s eyes widened in surprise. “Such sweet words,” she breathed, a tremor in her voice. “Where did that come from?”

Jayden arched an eyebrow. “Why the surprise?”

Elyse pressed her lips together, unsure how to respond. Jayden’s uncharacteristic tenderness was flustering.

The tranquility shattered with Glenda’s sudden outburst. “Enough!” she roared, yanking at her hair. “Can’t you see you’re getting nowhere? Why don’t you pester your dad instead? Leave me alone!”
