Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband

Chapter 10:

Elyse, feeling speechless, looked out of the window with a cold expression and chose to remain silent. Jayden was equally quiet, and the two of them returned home without speaking. As they arrived, Driscoll greeted them with a wide smile. “Welcome back.”noveldrama

Jayden’s expressionless demeanor maneuvered his wheelchair into his study. Noticing Jayden’s cold demeanor, Driscoll approached Elyse, who was walking slowly behind. He asked with concern, “What happened? Mr. Owen seems unhappy.”

Elyse’s mind was still reeling from her parents’ betrayal, and she hadn’t noticed anything unusual about Jayden. “Isn’t he always like this? His expression never changes,” she replied.

Driscoll sighed. “I’ve watched him grow up. He never shows his feelings, yet I can tell he’s not happy today.”

Elyse paused, taken aback. Was Jayden unhappy? As she walked to the dining area, she noticed the lavish meal laid out on the table. “Who is this for?”

“It’s for you,” Driscoll explained. “Mr. Owen had been waiting up for you all night. When he learned you were in trouble, he went to fetch you himself.” Then he added, “He was there to support you.”

Elyse looked up, her eyes filled with surprise. Even though she was married to Jayden, there were no real feelings between them; they weren’t even friends. Because of this, she made it a point to keep their relationship as private as possible. However, he had gone to her family to support her, which left her with mixed emotions. Setting down her purse, she decided, “I’ll ask him to join me for dinner.” Bolstered by Driscoll’s earlier encouragement, she knocked on the door of the study and entered at Jayden’s invitation.

Jayden was engrossed in his work. She closed the door and approached his desk.
