?<strong>Chapter 760:</strong>
Elyse was shocked. “How did you have the nerve to bring the police? Aren’t you scared of Aarya’s family?”
Jayden let out a soft chuckle. “You don’t need to worry about me. I know how to look after myself.”
Elyse felt something was wrong. She pushed Jayden away and stared intently at him. “Are you keeping something from me?”
Jayden smirked. “Why would you think that?”
Disappointment shed in Elyse’s eyes. “You always hide things from me. Why would this time be any different?”
She slipped away from him and got out of bed.
Jayden stood up and grabbed her arm. “Where are you going?”
“Why should I tell you?” Elyse red at him coldly. “You’re no one to me. Why should I share anything with you?”
Jayden looked at the ck shirt she was wearing. “Fine, you don’t have to tell me. Just take off the shirt you’re wearing. It’s mine.”
Elyse was in disbelief as she froze in ce. “Your shirt? Did you change my clothes?”
Jayden countered, “Who else do you think could have done it?”
Elyse hit Jayden repeatedly as rage fueled her. “Who do you think you are to do that? You’re such a jerk! You’re a pervert! You saw my naked body.”
Jayden endured the punches she’d been throwing at him. They barely hurt him anyway.
He caught her fists and caressed them gently. “I’ll take responsibility for seeing your naked body. How should I make it up to you? How about I marry you?”
“Bah! Dream on. I’ll never get married to you. Leave.” Elyse tried to force Jayden out, but he remained still.
At the sight of her panting from such a feat, he couldn’t help teasing her. “Is that all you’ve got? Maybe you should have some breakfast first before kicking me out.”
As her blood boiled from rage, Elyse almost copsed.
Jayden quickly snatched her waist and caught her lips with his.
Jayden’s lips met Elyse’s in a fervent kiss; he held her so tightly that she almost swooned in his arms. Only when she seemed breathless did he reluctantly release her.
Noticing her dizziness, a genuine smile yed across his face.
“Why do you look a bit silly?” he teased gently.
Exasperated by Jayden’s kiss, Elyse shut her eyes tight, refusing to meet his gaze.
Miffed by her silent treatment, Jayden’s fingers found her waist, giving it a yful poke.
“What do you want?” Elyse asked, impatience coloring her voice as she kept her eyes shut.
“I came to check on your recovery. Seeing that you’re feisty enough to hit and scold me, I’m relieved,” Jayden replied, his eyes brimming with uncharacteristic warmth.
Elyse’s brows knitted in suspicion; his words seemed peculiar. She seized his cor, pulling him close. “What are you hiding from me? Even after our divorce, you keep secrets.”
“I won’t tell you. Angry now?” Jayden replied, gently releasing his grip. His fingersbed through her tousled locks, smoothing them back into ce.
