Chapter 646:

Elyse’s legs still trembled faintly as Jayden offered a gentle arm around her waist. “Those are just old stories, nothing to dwell on. If the scars bother you, we can get them cosmetically treated.”

Elyse sighed, a whisper escaping her lips. She had given Jayden chances—a simple explanation, a few kind words—anything, and the thought of divorce might have vanished.

But Jayden had retreated behind a wall of silence. Helplessness flickered in Elyse’s eyes, a flicker of love teetering on the brink.
