NovelEnglishChapter 1845:
Elyse’s agitation flared, her words sharp as a blade. “Don’t play innocent with me. You must know something—
stop weaving lies!”
Theo shook his head firmly, his expression earnest. “I'm not spinning tales, Elyse. | truly have no clue. The last
twe crossed paths, it was purely about a potential partnership—nothing more.”
Tracy, overhearing the exchange, arched a skeptical brow. “You and Jayden discussing partnership? Since when
were you two on good terms?”
Theo clasped his hands on the desk, his voice steady. “I'll admit, | wouldn't have entertained the idea before, but
times have changed. We can’t steer the future by staring at the past, can we?”

Tracy's lips curled into a wry smirk. “That is a stretch, even for you.”
“I'm a businessman at heart,” Theo countered smoothly. “I've learned sdesires can’t be forced. If romance
isn’t on the horizon, I'll pour my energy into my work instead.”
Tracy chuckled, her tone teasing. “Who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too? A little elbow grease, and
you might snag both love and a successful career.”
Theo faltered, caught off balance. “I'm not the schemer you paintas,” he murmured.
Elyse, watching the exchange, began to see the truth in his eyes—he genuinely didn’t know where Jayden had
vanished to. But if not here, then where? Her thoughts spiraled, and tears slipped silently down her cheeks.
Theo and Tracy exchanged a glance, alarm flickering between them as Elyse’s quiet sobs filled the air.
Theo leapt to his feet, snatching a handful of tissues to dab gently at Elyse’s tears. “Please, don’t cry,” he urged
softly. “I'll help you track down Jayden.”

Tracy chimed in, her voice warm and reassuring. “Chin up, Elyse. Jayden is a clever one—he’ll be fine. Maybe
he’s just tangled up in something and will waltz back soon.”
Theo nodded, his tone soothing. “Exactly. Let's get you hto rest, and you can wait for word there.”
Elyse took a few shaky steps before a wave of dizziness washed over her. Theo was at her side in an instant,
steadying her with a concerned frown. “Are you all right?”
She paused, waiting for the world to stop spinning, then lifted her gaze, her face drained of color.
Tracy's sharp eyes caught the pallor in Elyse’s cheeks. “Good heavens, you're running yourself ragged. Let's take
you hso you can recharge.”
With a faint nod, Elyse trailed after Tracy, her steps heavy with worry.
No sooner had they stepped through the door than Chloe's voice crackled through the phone, brimming with
excitement. “Elyse, tomorrow's your golden ticket! A dazzling performance could catapult you to stardom and
nudge that world tour dream within reach.”
Elyse, sipping the honeyed milk Driscoll had pressed into her hands, paused mid-swallow. “What performance?”
Chloe's enthusiasm bubbled over. “Tomorrow, national dignitaries are gracing the Celestial Sounds Symphony
with their presence. Merlin reached out to me, begging for you to take the stage for the grand finale.”
Elyse sputtered, nearly choking on her drink. “Merlin called you? You're serious?”
“Dead serious,” Chloe affirmed. “I've done my homework. You're the violinist from Celestial. Say yes to Merlin,
and by tomorrow night, your nwill be ablaze in the spotlight. Your dream’s practically knocking at the door!”
Elyse’s heart fluttered with temptation, but Jayden’s mysterious absence gnawed at her peace.
