Chapter 209 You Know You Are Married, Right

Elyse's mind went blank, leaving her at a loss for words.

In the blink of an eye, Jayden released Elyse.

Elyse was stunned. The weight pressing down on her vanished, leaving behind a void of warmth.

She felt empty inside.

"Send me the location, and I'll swing by to get you," Jayden said to the person on the other end of the line before ending the call.

When he turned back to Elyse, she had turned away, her back facing him.

Jayden felt a pang of guilt. Before leaving, he leaned down and planted a kiss on her forehead.

"I'm sorry, I'm in the wrong this time. I'll make it up to you when I get back."

With that, Jayden changed clothes, settled back into his wheelchair, and wheeled out of the room, paying no heed to her reaction.

As the door clicked shut behind him, Elyse felt a stifling sensation welling up inside her, an

uncomfortable lump lodged in her throat.
