Chapter 43 Stealing A Kiss

After Jayden offered to treat Elyse's classmates to dinner, the group's perception of him shifted slightly.

Some speculated that no ordinary guy would make such a generous offer, hinting that Jayden might be an influential figure. Curious, they < approached him with their drinks, eager to engage him in conversation.

Others simply observed from a distance, refraining from making any negative remarks about him. Lizzie's attitude shifted the most. She spoke in hushed tones, worried that someone might ask about the venue of her own wedding.

She dreamed of such a lavish setting, but financial constraints made it impossible.

Despite this, she was more eager than anyone to see what the next day would bring.

"Yes." Jayden nodded, choosing not to elaborate.
