?<strong>Chapter 1106:</strong>


    Jayden, still in the dark about the specifics, casually inquired, “What kind of setback?”


    “When Edward discovered that Elyse was safe and that you had whisked her away, he flew off the handle and pinpointed your location. He’s en route to you now,” Garret conveyed, his voice steady.


    Jayden’s eyebrow arched at this news. “Inform him to back off. My wife and I are savoring our moments here.”


    “I can’t deter him. He uncovered the details himself,” Garret responded.


    After a brief pause, Garret suggested with a hint of irritation, “If you prefer to avoid this confrontation, perhaps you and Elyse could relocate temporarily. Had you intended to settle permanently where you are now?”


    Jayden, increasingly irked, didn’t reply right away. Elyse was awaiting an update on that special violin, and they wouldn’t have any information until tomorrow. Departing with her now was out of the question.


    Detecting Jayden’s hesitation, Garret maintained his calm demeanor. “Since stopping him isn’t an option, perhaps it’s best just to ept the situation. Besides, Edward is no match for you.”


    Curious, Jayden probed further. “And why do you believe he is no match for me?”

    “Simply put, he’s not as cunning as you. He can’t outwit you,” Garret asserted earnestly.


    Jayden fell silent once more. That didn’t strike him as particrly ttering. Nevertheless, if a bit of cunning could defeat a rival and reim his wife, was there really any harm? Jayden decided to ept Garret’s remark as ttery for the moment.


    He ended the call, his typically rxed demeanor now reced by a more stern expression.


    Elyse noticed the change and asked, “What was that? You look different.”


    “It was Garret. He wanted me to tell you that he’s kept his promise to you,” Jayden responded, his voice still carrying a hint of calm.


    Elyse nodded. “Please thank him for me. But what’s got you looking so somber?”


    Jayden’sugh was cold, his toneced with subdued fury. “Why wouldn’t I be somber? Edward, the bastard, is headed this way!”


    Elyse was thoroughly pleased to see Jayden looking so distressed.


    Jayden caught sight of her smug expression and clenched his teeth. “You look rather pleased.”


    Elyse shrugged, feigning innocence. “I haven’t done anything wrong. Please, don’t make baseless usations.”
