Chapter 716:

About half an hour later, the traffic finally started to move. As they neared the restaurant, Elyse turned to Jayden and gave him a firm slap.

Jayden stirred awake, groggy and disheveled, his hair all over the place. Still half-asleep and confused, Jayden instinctively nuzzled against Elyse’s neck, completely forgetting that they had been at odds.

Jayden slowly woke up, and upon realizing what he had done, he withdrew and smoothed his hair with a nonchalant air, “It wasn’t even comfortable. Don’t think I enjoyed it. I actually felt terrible.”

Elyse’s anger flared at his words. She was so infuriated that she immediately wanted to leave the car.

Quickly opening the door, she slipped out and made her way into the restaurant.
