?<strong>Chapter 611:</strong>


    After Morgan calmed down, Elyse headed home with the notebook. She walked into the living room, where Jayden was absorbed in a newspaper.


    ncing up, he said, “Mabel’sck of response is unexpected. She still hasn’t appeared. It seems she doesn’t care much for her parents.”


    Elyse pondered his observation and responded, “She might ignore Lanny’s predicament, but she surely wants to handle Glenda’s final arrangements?”


    Jayden raised an eyebrow, curious. “Why are you sure she would return to handle Glenda’s final arrangements?”


    Elyse said, “Remember when you detained Glenda? Mabel dared to break into our house demanding her release. It shows she values her mom deeply.”


    Jayden fell silent, deep in thought, then said, “Elyse, you’ve really changedtely. You’re moreposed and insightful.”


    Elyse touched her face, musing. “I hadn’t noticed. I just act on my convictions.”


    Jayden gestured to her. “Come here. Let’s see if you really have changed.”


    Elyse’s smile faltered slightly. “You should rest more for a quicker recovery. You’re out of the hospital but still need to take it easy.”


    Jayden looked at her sternly and said, “What are you implying? I just want to hold you. It’s been days since ourst embrace.”


    Elyse was irritated. “A hug? Aren’t you concerned I might aggravate your injury during our embrace? Do you want your wound to heal properly?”


    Jayden’s expression darkened. “Elyse, just hug me while I’m still asking nicely. Don’t make me insist.”


    Elyse’s presence became moremanding as she approached him. It was unusual for Jayden to feel overpowered by her assertive demeanor, causing his resistance to falter.


    Elyse walked up to him, lifted his chin, and kissed him unexpectedly as he was caught off guard. Jayden braced for a p across his face. Instead, she surprised him with a kiss. This unexpected kiss inexplicably lifted his spirits.


    Raising her eyebrows, Elyse told him while he was still bewildered, “Stay calm and focus on healing. I’m waiting for you to get better.”


    With that, she turned and walked away without a backward nce.


    Jayden touched his lips, reminiscing about how long it had been since theirst kiss, and even longer since they had been intimate.


    As he watched her leave, Driscoll observed, convinced of Jayden’s deep love for Elyse. He could tell that Jayden waspletely captivated by Elyse’s allure.


    A young maid near Driscoll was moved. “They still love each other so deeply. They’ll probably have a baby after he recovers, right?”


    Driscoll nodded enthusiastically. “Absolutely. He has always treated her wonderfully. I’m sure they’ll have another child soon.”


    Jayden was oblivious to what his household staff were thinking. After looking away, he focused on his phone. He instructed his team to cremate Glenda’s body, nning to use her ashes as a way to draw Mabel out. Based on what they knew about Mabel, they believed she wouldn’t ignore Glenda’s ashes.


    Unbeknownst to them, Mabel had decided to follow Kaelyn’s lead. At Kaelyn’s direction, she had already returned to Watscar. Mabel was indeed intent on taking care of Glenda’s remains. However, the final decision rested with Kaelyn.
