Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Chapter 70

What's This In Your Pocket

Elyse was sitting on the bed, hugging her knees and crying. She couldn't understand why Jayden always criticized her. It was Rebekah who had sabotaged her, leading to her illness, yet Jayden called her foolish. She felt victimized.

"Jayden, you jerk!" she cried out. "You've really upset me. I didn't do anything wrong. I don't want to talk to you anymore."

"Really? You don't want to talk to me anymore?"

Startled, Elyse lifted her head from her knees to find Jayden sitting nearby. She wiped away a tear and asked, "How-how did you get in here? I locked the door."

Jayden jangled a set of keys in front of her and replied, "This house is my territory. There's no place I can't access."

Elyse's frustration grew. She felt her privacy was being violated. In a burst of anger, she threw a pillow at him. "You jerk, get out! You are not allowed in my room."

The pillow struck Jayden's face and then dropped to his thighs.

He rubbed his stinging face and tossed the pillow aside, a stern look flashing across his eyes.

He maneuvered his wheelchair closer to her.
