Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Chapter 241 Debora

That night, Elyse struggled to find sleep. She tossed and turned before finally succumbing to exhaustion.

When morning came, Elyse rose from her bed with a heavy heart, her eyes still clouded with sadness.

Soon after, she was greeted by a sight that puzzled her. Nearly twenty maids stood in formation, flanking her on either side.

After a brief moment of confusion, Elyse asked, "What's going on?"

"Mrs. Owen, your birthday party is scheduled for today. We are here to assist you in preparing,"

the lead maid announced, motioning for the others to gather around Elyse.

It suddenly dawned on Elyse that Jayden had promised her a birthday celebration to make it up to her.

However, their argument from the previous night had dampened her enthusiasm for such festivities.

"I think we should hold off on the preparations. I need to have a word with Jayden," she said.

The lead maid nodded understandingly. "He is currently out. I'll notify you as soon as he returns. Please take a bath first."

With a clenched jaw, Elyse wondered where Jayden had gone.

Meanwhile, Jayden had left home early, heading straight to Owen Group's headquarters. Inside the chairman's office, Enzo stood by the French gazing out at the city skyline.

Brook and Jayden were behind Enzo, enveloped in a heavy silence that no one dared to break.

After what felt like an eternity, Enzo finally spoke, his voice heavy with disappointment. "Bayzee Group has refused to sign the contract with us. Why was I not made aware of this sooner?" Jayden bowed his head, his silence hanging heavily in the tense air. Beads of cold sweat trickled down Brook's forehead, a testament to his nerves.
