Bound By Love Marrying My Disabled Husband Book - Chapter: 1457

Corrie wasn’t particularly concerned about Brook’s fate, but if he were killed while she was still involved, she would face Enzo’s wrath.

The prospect of being entangled in this mess filled her with deep fear.

She knew she needed to escape soon. Remaining here was far too perilous.

After exiting the room, Jayden noticed Elyse was missing. He began searching the hospital floor by floor.

Eventually, when he arrived on the fourth floor, Jayden saw her.

Elyse was crouching on the floor, facing a young boy in a hospital gown who stood before her.

It appeared the boy had strayed while playing and become Lost.

Jayden approached and crouched beside Elyse.

Elyse looked slightly surprised by Jayden’s gesture but remained silent. She gave him a quick glance before focusing again on the boy and said gently, “You’ve found your hospital room now. Go back inside. Don’t worry your parents.”

The boy gazed intently at Elyse and asked earnestly, “Can I see you again tomorrow?”

Elyse blinked and responded, “Probably not.”

Upon hearing this, the boy appeared saddened but didn’t say much more.

He bid goodbye and walked back into his room.

Jayden remarked, “I thought you were going to tell him he could see you tomorrow.”

Elyse answered, “Promises are very important to children. If you can’t keep a promise, it’s better not to make one.”

Jayden saw a hint of sorrow in Elyse’s eyes. He pressed his lips together and then said in a somber tone, “I hate seeing you this upset.”

Elyse looked slightly taken aback. “But things don’t always turn out as we hope, do they? Once the damage is done, it’s irreversible.”

Jayden wanted to add more, but after a moment of reflection, he realized that nothing he could say would be appropriate right now.

He exhaled softly and gently assisted Elyse to her feet. “If I could turn back time, I’d prevent those events from ever happening.”

Elyse touched his hand, her voice carrying a faint sadness that was difficult to discern. “Let’s move on. We’ve handled Corrie. Now we need to address my issues.”

Jayden nodded in agreement. “I looked into violin shops nearby. There’s one in another town, but it’s a ten-hour drive.”

Elyse paused, considering the long drive. “Maybe we shouldn’t go. Ten hours driving sounds exhausting.”

Jayden shook his head dismissively. “Don’t worry. I’ve already talked to Garret. Currently, our opponents are in disarray. With Corrie hospitalized and Brook detained, they’re just a disorganized group. They pose no real danger.”

Elyse, curious, inquired, “So, are you suggesting this conflict might end soon?”
