?<strong>Chapter 384:</strong>


    Also, who told you Elyse was dying?” Jayden pursued the matter further, his expression turning cold. Caught off by the question, Tess snapped back, “Why does it matter to you who told me?” After a brief pause, Jayden asked, “Was it Corrie who told you?” Tess was shocked, “How did you know?” Jayden said with a sneer, “Just a guess.” Frustrated, Tess tried to figure out how she had inadvertently revealed too much, but she wasn’t as cunning as Jayden. After thinking about it for a moment, she became irritated. “I wasn’t pushing for you to divorce Elyse. I just assumed she was gone, so I thought I’d find someone new to look after you,” Tess argued.


    Jayden responded with impatience, “Should I thank you for your thoughtfulness?” Just as Tess was about to respond, Jayden decisively said to her, “Mom, since Elyse is still alive, I think it’s best you leave now.” “You’re just ungrateful. All my efforts raising you were in vain,” Tess red at Elyse, “When the dayes that Elyse resents you for being a cripple, you’ll realize the only person who truly cares for you is me.” With those words, Tess stormed out. Jayden said in a weary tone, “Sorry my mother upset you again.”


    Elyse shook her head, “It’s fine. I’m used to it.” Noticing the exhaustion on Jayden’s face, Elyse suggested, “You should get some sleep. If you don’t get some rest, I’ll really get upset.” Jayden managed a smile, crossed his arms, and dozed off in his wheelchair. Jayden had stayed up all night watching over Elyse worriedly, which left him particrly drained. Feeling reassured that Elyse was okay, Jayden was hit by a wave of exhaustion, and he fell asleep quickly. Elyse watched him sleep, a smile of relief on her face. There was nothing that pleased her more than waking up to find Jayden by her side.


    About fifteen minutester, Driscoll arrived at the hospital with a lunch box. Upon entering, he noticed Jayden sleeping peacefully. He quietly approached Elyse and set up a small table for her. “Please enjoy your meal. The chef prepared a lot for you,” Driscoll whispered as heid out the food on the table. Elyse nodded and began eating. After Theo had taken Kaelyn to one of his residences, he reviewed the situation with her one more time. Then, with a grave expression, he instructed Kaelyn, “You need to turn yourself in.”

    Anxiously, Kaelyn responded, “Didn’t you take me here because you trust me? Why are you telling me to turn myself in? I already told you it was an ident.” Theo eximed, “But your actions nearly killed Elyse. I took Elyse to the hospital for rescue. I know you almost killed her.” Kaelyn, her eyes filled with sorrow, bit her lip, “I thought you were trying to help me. I never imagined it was all for Elyse. Why can’t you just move on?” Theo’s expression darkened, “I can’t let go of Elyse. You almost took her life, and I must avenge her.” With tears streaming down her face, Kaelyn pleaded, “But you rescued me from Jayden. You still care about me, right?” Her anxiety overwhelmed her, and she fell to Theo’s feet, kneeling as she sobbed, “Please tell me you did care for me. You didn’t want to see me hurt. It wasn’t all for Elyse, was it? Tell me.” Shrugging off her hold, Theo retorted, “What are you talking about? My heart belongs to Elyse. I saved you because it was right, not just for you. You endangered Elyse, and you need to face justice.”


    Stunned, Kaelyn looked up, disbelief written across her face, “What did you just say?” Theo, his voice icy, didn’t soften, “You’ve made grave mistakes. Thinking of killing you would be merciful, allowing you to escape the guilt. However, facing your actions in prison will let you truly make amends.” Indifference clouded Theo’s eyes as he continued.


    “This is for the best. It’s the only way you’ll learn from your mistakes,” Theo said firmly. Eyes wide, Kaelyn struggled with his words. “You want me to make amends? You saved me just because you wanted to prolong my sufferings?” Theo nodded firmly. “There’s no other reason. Your actions hurt Elyse deeply, and I despise what you did more than Jayden ever could. How could you harm her?” With that, Theo pushed her aside and dialed the police.


    As shey on the ground, Kaelyn heard the distant sound of Theo speaking with the police, and the hope in her eyes faded. Pushing herself up, she stared at Theo. After he hung up, Theo fixed her with a stern gaze. “Is there anything else you want to say?” Quietly, Kaelyn faced him and asked, “After everything I’ve done for you, did you ever love me?” Theo’s reply was resolute. “No. Never.” Kaelyn pressed, her voice tight, “Never,” he said, his tone devoid of hesitation.


    At his words, a hollowugh escaped Kaelyn, soon turning into uncontrobleughter though tears streamed down her cheeks. She brushed away the tears, her voice trembling, “I love you so much. How can you just ignore that?” Her smile vanished, leaving her gaze empty as she stared at Theo. “I won’t forgive you.” Theo, his brow furrowed, shot back, “Are you out of your mind?” Kaelyn didn’t respond, merely sitting in silence on the cold ground, waiting for the inevitable arrival of the police. Twenty minutester, they did, escorting Kaelyn away.


    Theo exhaled deeply, a weight lifting from his shoulders. Eager to be reunited with Elyse, he hurried back to Watscar, his heart light with anticipation. In the hospital ward, Elyse, having finished her breakfast, texted Gavin to reassure him of her safety before settling down for a rest. Upon waking, she was surprised not to find Jayden, but instead saw Irving and Fiona. “Why are you here?” Elyse asked, her surprise evident.


    “We heard what happened yesterday,” Fiona exined, her toneced with concern. “It’s terrible that someone would poison you.” Irving, arms crossed, added coolly, “Can you still attend the first round ofpetition tomorrow? There will be no special favors at Blue Sea Music Studio. You’ll have to manage on your own.” Elyse managed a reassuring smile. “I’m a bit weak, but it won’t hold me back tomorrow. I n to handle the discharge paperwork this afternoon,” she said, her voice steady despite her condition. Fiona’s worry was palpable. “Are you sure? Don’t overdo it, Elyse.”
