Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 758

Chapter 758:

“You need to take responsibility for me,” Edward mumbled, blushing with embarrassment.

Elyse was speechless. How could Edward be saying she needed to take responsibility for seeing him naked?

Taking a deep breath, she replied, “The parts of you | saw aren't exactly private. How can you expectto take

responsibility for that?”

Edward paused thoughtfully before saying, “When | carried you back, | also saw your thighs. How about this: you

take responsibility for me, and I'll take responsibility for you.”

Elyse hurled a pillow at him, which Edward caught effortlessly.

Grinding her teeth, she snapped, “Don’t be ridiculous. Why should | take responsibility for you? | didn’t sleep with

you, so what's the deal?”

Edward shot back, “If you had slept with me, would you take responsibility?”

He pondered for a moment, then added, “So, if | sleep with you, | can take responsibility for you too?”

Elyse’s face drained of color at his words. “Don’t even think about it. I'm not sleeping with you.”

Edward pointed to himself, a mix of confusion and annoyance in his expression. “Why wouldn't you sleep with

me? With my looks and physique, is it really such a bad deal?”

Elyse rolled her eyes, clearly frustrated. How could Edward's mind work this way?

All she wanted was speace and quiet to mull over the events of the previous night. Why couldn't Edward

just be silent for a moment?

Throwing up her hands in surrender, she asked, “Do you know where Aarya went? How did | end up in the

hospital?”

Edward nodded. “Yeah, | know. | found out at the hospital yesterday. The police surrounded that club, and there

was reportedly a shootout. Aarya’s probably in jail.”

Elyse was in shock. A shootout? Could the noise she had heard have been gunfire?

She leaned back against the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, her thoughts a tangled mess.

Edward, meanwhile, was striking various muscle-showing poses beside Elyse, but she didn’t even cast him a

glance. Feeling embarrassed, he went to find his clothes and slipped them on.

“Even if Aarya is behind bars, she should be out soon, right?” Elyse asked suddenly.

Edward nodded. “Normally, yes, but this time, things are different.”

Elyse turned her curious gaze toward him. “What's different?”

Edward crossed his arms and explained, “The governor wants to tighten his grip on power, wipe out the Hudson

family as local despots, and improve state security. So the Hudsons can’t spring Aarya out as easily this time.”

Elyse continued to stare at Edward with curiosity. “How do you know all this?”

Edward froze for a moment, a flicker of panic in his eyes, before forcing a smile. “Is it odd to be in the know

about such things?”

“Very odd,” Elyse said, her gaze steady. “Honestly, sometimes it feels like you're not just a violinist. You seem

Edward felt a chill run down his spine at Elyse’s words.

However, Elyse couldn't quite put her finger on what Edward reminded her of, so she decided to brush it off.

Just then, the hotel room doorbell chimed.
