Chapter 158 A Wish For Affection
It had been an evening steeped in discomfort. Elyse couldn't stomach another moment and excused herself from the dinner table after barely touching her food.
Before walking away, she dropped a reminder to Theo, "Don't forget to release Mabel." She couldn't be sure if her words had registered with him, but she didn't linger to find out. Elyse made a swift exit, finding solace in the quiet of Jayden's waiting car.
Jayden glanced at the clock. "Only forty-seven minutes. I take it dinner wasn't to your liking?" I barely touched my food," Elyse admitted, wanting to forget the evening's unpleasantness. She closed her eyes, drained.
Respecting her need for silence, Jayden refrained from disturbing her and simply instructed the driver to take them home.
Upon their return, they found Tess lounging on the sofa, sipping tea with an air of tranquility. Jayden and Tess had never seen eye to eye, their relationship marred by mutual disdain.
Her presence in his home was a rare occurrence.
Jayden's voice cut through the tension, sharp and direct. "Why are you here?"
Tess, composed despite the tension, set down her teacup and replied, "I'm here for a reason, naturally. Your brother has just graduated from college. I intend to offer him a position in the company so he can gain experience before taking the reins."
Jayden scoffed, "And what does that have to do with me?"
Tess scrutinized Jayden for a moment before responding, her tone unwavering. "Despite your disability, your mind is sharp. You must support your brother. In time, he will appreciate your guidance when he assumes control of the company."
