?<strong>Chapter 385:</strong>
Elyse shook her head, exining, “I won’t overdo it. My heart failure was due to a reaction to medication. Once it’s treated, it won’t happen again. I just feel a little weak now.” Fiona, reassured by Elyse’s rification, turned to Irving and said, “Even if Elyse is physically weak, surely she can still pass the first round, right?” After thinking it over, Irving agreed, “You’re right. If she can’t even pass the first round, maybe she shouldn’t have joined our studio from the start. She needs the right talent to be here.”
Elyse refused to be belittled by Irving. She insisted on leaving the hospital as soon as they left. Initially hesitant, Jayden finally agreed after insisting that Peyton check Elyse thoroughly first. After finishing Elyse’s physical checkup, Peyton said to her, “You’re generally healthy. You just have a bit of low blood sugar. Make sure to eat well once you get home to avoid getting dizzy.” Elyse acknowledged with a nod, took her health examination report, and headed home with Driscoll.
Once home, Elyse wasted no time and started practicing the violin. Watching her, Driscoll feltpelled to advise, “Oh my, you should take it easy. You’ve only just recovered.” Elyse, however, was determined and focused on an uingpetition. She said, “I’m under Cody’s mentorship. Failing the first round isn’t an option for me.” Driscoll looked at her with worried eyes, concerned that Elyse was neglecting her health. He decided he would need to speak to Jayden about this when he returned.
After leaving backing from the Celestial Sounds Symphony, Elyse knew she couldn’t let any chance to chase her dreams slip through her fingers. She wasmitted to working hard and seizing every opportunity.
After a restful morning, Jayden went to his office at Bayzee Group, which had been busier with new projects requiring his presence more often. With Tobin away in another city, Eva stepped in to handle his document deliveries. After finishing her task, Eva hesitated to leave, noticing Jayden’s empty coffee cup. She suggested, “Mr. Owen, would you like me to make you some coffee?” Jayden agreed with a nod, and Eva left smiling.
Just as the door shut, Jayden’s phone started ringing. He picked up without looking to see who it was. “Jayden, are you free at the moment? Could we possibly meet soon?” It was Enzo on the line. Jayden’s eyebrows knitted together as he said, “I’ll be there shortly.” Enzo continued, “It’s quite a long way from Bayzee Group to my house. Don’t rush; focus on your work. It seems like yourpany’s stock is doing well, so you must be busy,” Enzo said calmly, carrying a soft chuckle in his voice.
As Jayden absorbed these words, his initial shock gave way to a sense of calm. He was well aware that his family would eventually discover his role at the Bayzee Group. He had hidden this secret for a considerable time. With his secret now out, there seemed little point in maintaining such privacy. “I’ll be there soon. I won’t make you wait,” Jayden responded calmly.
After ending the call, Jayden stepped into his exclusive elevator. Meanwhile, Eva came back with the coffee, a look of expectancy on her face. However, she was met with an empty office, and her smile quickly disappeared. She set the coffee down on the desk and decided to wait a bit, thinking Jayden might return shortly. She nned to stay until Jayden came back, hoping to find out if he liked the coffee.
After waiting for over ten minutes, she got a call from Mia, the chief secretary. With a sigh, Eva left the office, knowing Mia was not happy about her extended absence. Jayden arrived at Enzo’s ce soon. He walked towards the garden where Enzo was calmly enjoying his tea. “Ah, there you are,” Enzo said, motioning towards a chair across from him. “It’s been a year since we’ve had a proper conversation.”
Jayden gestured to his legs and answered, “I’ll sit next to you. This chair isn’t convenient for me.” Noticing Jayden’s legs, Enzo asked, “Has the doctor given any hope of recovery for your legs?” “Thanks for asking, but recovery seems unlikely,” Jayden replied, slightly puzzled by Enzo’s focus on his legs. It felt odd that Enzo was so attentive to it.
Enzo poured Jayden a cup of tea and continued, “Yourpany’s been quite sessfultely, hasn’t it?”
