Chapter 384:
Also, who told you Elyse was dying?” Jayden pursued the matter further, his expression turning cold. Caught off
by the question, Tess snapped back, “Why does it matter to you who told me?” After a brief pause, Jayden asked,
“Was it Corrie who told you?” Tess was shocked, “How did you know?” Jayden said with a sneer, “Just a guess.”
Frustrated, Tess tried to figure out how she had inadvertently revealed too much, but she wasn’t as cunning as
Jayden. After thinking about it for a moment, she becirritated. “I wasn’t pushing for you to divorce Elyse. |
just assumed she was gone, so | thought I'd find someone new to look after you,” Tess argued.
Jayden responded with impatience, “Should | thank you for your thoughtfulness?” Just as Tess was about to
respond, Jayden decisively said to her, “Mom, since Elyse is still alive, | think it’s best you leave now.” “You're
just ungrateful. All my efforts raising you were in vain,” Tess glared at Elyse, “When the day comes that Elyse
resents you for being a cripple, you'll realize the only person who truly cares for you is me.” With those words,
Tess stormed out. Jayden said in a weary tone, “Sorry my mother upset you again.”
Elyse shook her head, “It’s fine. I'm used to it.” Noticing the exhaustion on Jayden'’s face, Elyse suggested, “You
should get ssleep. If you don’t get srest, I'll really get upset.” Jayden managed a smile, crossed his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtarms, and dozed off in his wheelchair. Jayden had stayed up all night watching over Elyse worriedly, which left
him particularly drained. Feeling reassured that Elyse was okay, Jayden was hit by a wave of exhaustion, and he
fell asleep quickly. Elyse watched him sleep, a smile of relief on her face. There was nothing that pleased her
more than waking up to find Jayden by her side.
About fifteen minutes later, Driscoll arrived at the hospital with a lunch box. Upon entering, he noticed Jayden
sleeping peacefully. He quietly approached Elyse and set up a small table for her. “Please enjoy your meal. The
chef prepared a lot for you,” Driscoll whispered as he laid out the food on the table. Elyse nodded and began
eating. After Theo had taken Kaelyn to one of his residences, he reviewed the situation with her one more time.
Then, with a grave expression, he instructed Kaelyn, “You need to turn yourself in.”

Anxiously, Kaelyn responded, “Didn’t you takehere because you trust me? Why are you tellingto turn
myself in? | already told you it was an accident.” Theo exclaimed, “But your actions nearly killed Elyse. | took
Elyse to the hospital for rescue. | know you almost killed her.” Kaelyn, her eyes filled with sorrow, bit her lip, “I
thought you were trying to help me. | never imagined it was all for Elyse. Why can’t you just move on?” Theo's
expression darkened, “I can’t let go of Elyse. You almost took her life, and | must avenge her.” With tears
streaming down her face, Kaelyn pleaded, “But you rescuedfrom Jayden. You still care about me, right?” Her
anxiety overwhelmed her, and she fell to Theo's feet, kneeling as she sobbed, “Please tellyou did care for
me. You didn’t want to seehurt. It wasn't all for Elyse, was it? Tell me.” Shrugging off her hold, Theo retorted,
“What are you talking about? My heart belongs to Elyse. | saved you because it was right, not just for you. You
endangered Elyse, and you need to face justice.”
Stunned, Kaelyn looked up, disbelief written across her face, “What did you just say?” Theo, his voice icy, didn’t
soften, “You've made grave mistakes. Thinking of killing you would be merciful, allowing you to escape the guilt.
However, facing your actions in prison will let you truly make amends.” Indifference clouded Theo's eyes as he
continued.
“This is for the best. It's the only way you'll learn from your mistakes,” Theo said firmly. Eyes wide, Kaelyn
struggled with his words. “You wantto make amends? You savedjust because you wanted to prolong my
sufferings?” Theo nodded firmly. “There’s no other reason. Your actions hurt Elyse deeply, and | despise what you
did more than Jayden ever could. How could you harm her?” With that, Theo pushed her aside and dialed the
police.
As she lay on the ground, Kaelyn heard the distant sound of Theo speaking with the police, and the hope in her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmeyes faded. Pushing herself up, she stared at Theo. After he hung up, Theo fixed her with a stern gaze. “Is there
anything else you want to say?” Quietly, Kaelyn faced him and asked, “After everything I've done for you, did
you ever love me?” Theo's reply was resolute. “No. Never.” Kaelyn pressed, her voice tight, “Never,” he said, his
tone devoid of hesitation.
At his words, a hollow laugh escaped Kaelyn, soon turning into uncontrollable laughter though tears streamed
down her cheeks. She brushed away the tears, her voice trembling, “I love you so much. How can you just ignore
that?” Her smile vanished, leaving her gaze empty as she stared at Theo. “I won't forgive you.” Theo, his brow
furrowed, shot back, “Are you out of your mind?” Kaelyn didn’t respond, merely sitting in silence on the cold
ground, waiting for the inevitable arrival of the police. Twenty minutes later, they did, escorting Kaelyn away.
Theo exhaled deeply, a weight lifting from his shoulders. Eager to be reunited with Elyse, he hurried back to
Watscar, his heart light with anticipation. In the hospital ward, Elyse, having finished her breakfast, texted Gavin
to reassure him of her safety before settling down for a rest. Upon waking, she was surprised not to find Jayden,
but instead saw Irving and Fiona. “Why are you here?” Elyse asked, her surprise evident.
“We heard what happened yesterday,” Fiona explained, her tone laced with concern. “It’s terrible that someone
would poison you.” Irving, arms crossed, added coolly, “Can you still attend the first round of competition
tomorrow? There will be no special favors at Blue Sea Music Studio. You'll have to manage on your own.” Elyse
managed a reassuring smile. “I'm a bit weak, but it won't holdback tomorrow. | plan to handle the discharge
paperwork this afternoon,” she said, her voice steady despite her condition. Fiona’s worry was palpable. “Are you
sure? Don’t overdo it, Elyse.”
