Chapter 604:

After Elyse left Glenda’s ward, Peyton had something he wanted to say to her but hesitated several times before stopping himself.

Seeing him hesitate, Elyse crossed her arms and said, “If you have something to say, just say it.”

Peyton scratched the back of his head and said awkwardly, “Jayden wanted to see you. He wants to see how someone like you—whom he perceives as weak—managed to overpower Mabel and pin her down.”

Elyse gave a cold snort. “So, I have to demonstrate it to him just because he wants to see it?”

Just as she finished speaking, the elevator doors opened. She walked out with her arms crossed and a cold, haughty expression, leaving Peyton and Irving exchanging bewildered looks.

Irving said with uncertainty, “Is she still angry?”

Peyton replied with equal uncertainty, “Yes, and when she’s angry, she would put on a long face, just like Jayden.”

Irving patted Peyton and smiled. “She is Jayden’s wife. How can she not be like him?”

“You don’t get it, man,” Peyton said, sighing. Dealing with Jayden was hard enough; having another “Jayden” around was a depressing thought for him.
