Chapter 187 She Has Always Been Selfish

Bryce had not intended to step inside the house. His plan was to simply say goodbye and leave this damned place.

"I won't stay for dinner! I'd rather starve outside than enter your house!" he exclaimed loudly. Jayden, with a blank expression, turned to Driscoll. "Send him home," he commanded.

Driscoll nodded, understanding Jayden's intention, and ushered Bryce towards a car.

As Bryce settled into his car, a peculiar sensation washed over him. Hadn't he chosen to leave on

his own? Why then did it feel as if he had been thrown out? Confusion clouded his thoughts as he sat in the car, trying to piece it all together.

Once Bryce was gone, Elyse observed a subtle lift in Jayden's mood. She recalled a conversation from a few days prior where Jayden had mentioned his plan to make Bryce leave of his own accord. It dawned on her that Jayden had something to do with the "ghost". However, she lacked any proof to confirm her suspicions.

"You failed the competition and couldn't become the concertmaster, right?" Jayden suddenly said, turning to face Elyse with an intense gaze.

She bowed her head, her voice tinged with sadness. "Yes. I failed."

Jayden offered comfort. "I can arrange a personal concert for you, if you want."
