"In the future, someone might take my place. But now, I am your sister-in-law!" Elyse declared with a sneer, her tone casual.

Turning to Driscoll, she spoke with icy detachment. "Since he loathes me so, he'll dine in his own room. I'm certain he wouldn't care to share a meal with me."

Driscoll paused, his eyes shifting to Jayden.

Jayden responded, "Why are you looking at me? Elyse runs the house here."

Bryce's face contorted slightly, a mix of shock and dismay. "So, you're excluding me from the dinner table?"

Elyse, hands trembling, said, "Of all the family, you alone refuse to accept me. Naturally, I will accommodate your wishes."

Bryce glowered at Jayden, scoffing, "I had no intention of sharing a table with you, anyway!" He then stormed off upstairs, likely in search of his room.

Jayden looked over at Elyse, remarking, "Bryce is devoid of any redeeming qualities. He's a fool and wicked to boot. Don't fret over him. Our mother has indulged him for too long."

"Ican see that," Elyse replied, her face unreadable yet filled with silent jubilation over Jayden's supportive words.
