Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 534:

The phone on the table suddenly rang, and Jayden picked it up, his eyes immediately drawn to the familiar name on the screen: Tobin.

“Mr. Owen, I heard there’s a gathering at your grandpa’s place tomorrow night. Rumor has it that he might officially sever ties with you.”

Jayden stared at the message, his mind racing. He turned to Elyse, who was idly plucking grapes and popping them into her mouth. “Do you really not mind if I cut the cord with the Owens?”

Elyse shrugged nonchalantly, unfazed. “It doesn’t ruffle my feathers, why should it bother me?” she replied, the corners of her mouth quirking up ever so slightly.

Jayden felt a weight lift from his shoulders. He typed out a casual “Whatever” in response to Tobin, setting the phone down with a sense of finality.

His mind drifted to the countless unpleasant gatherings held by his grandpa in the past—a veritable minefield of strained smiles and passive-aggressive jabs. Cutting ties could just be the clean break he needed, a chance to turn the page and leave those scheming people behind.

Elyse, oblivious to Jayden’s introspection, finished her grapes and headed to the bathroom to freshen up. She then slipped into bed, her eyelids already growing heavy.

After wrapping up his work, Jayden looked over at his sleeping wife. He got up and sat beside her, watching her intently with his arms crossed. He longed to join her, to feel her warmth beside him, but the single hospital bed made that impossible.
