Chapter 76 A Trip To Liverton City

After dinner, Elyse retired to her room and practiced her violin. She was playing when her phone rang. The call was from her best friend, Tracy Bernard.

She set her violin down and answered her phone. "! thought you're in Liverton to pursue your prince charming. Why are you calling me?"

"I'm sorry, Elyse," Tracy said in a sheepish tone. "I've been so busy lately, and I was totally oblivious to what happened to you. Do you need me to fly over and keep you company? I can get on the first flight."

"No, no. I'm all right now. Don't worry about it." Elyse voice took on a teasing tone as she continued, "So, what have you been busy with? Why didn't you even reply to my messages." "Who, me? I've been busy with my wedding, of course!" Tracy sounded very excited on the line. Elyse paused, taken aback by the sudden news. She was aware that Tracy had been pining for someone for well over four years. But that man returned to his hometown Liverton City right after graduation, and Tracy soon went after him.

"My, my, I wasn't expecting you to succeed in your hot pursuit of your beloved beau. It looks like I underestimated you."

"Hal Please, where there's a will, there's always a way. No guy can resist my charms!"

They giggled for a bit, then Tracy changed the subject. "Come to Liverton, Elyse. You must attend my wedding."

Elyse agreed without hesitation.

They chatted for a few more minutes before hanging up. Elyse then headed into the study to look

for Jayden. "My best friend is getting married. I'd like to be there for her."

Jayden didn't even look up from his desk. "And?" he drawled out.

"Would you like to come with me? I've never been to Liverton. It would be great if you're with me."

Although embarrassed, Elyse spoke her mind.

However, Jayden's refusal was swift and firm. "I don't want to go to

Liverton."

That made her frown. "Why not?"

"Do you expect me to travel to Liverton like this?" Jayden asked calmly.

Elyse opened her mouth to persuade him, but caught herself at the last second. She didn't want
