Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband by Devocean

Chapter 357:

After the shocking revelation, Corrie slammed her hand against the steering wheel in frustration. “Jayden, why

did you lie to me?”

Jayden, who had escaped unscathed from the car accident, had spread false information about being disabled for

the rest of his life, leading Corrie to mistakenly believe she had to flee overseas for an entire year. Corrie couldn't

help but feel that if Jayden hadn't deceived her, she wouldn't have left in the first place. She would have stayed

by his side throughout the year. Initially, Corrie had given up on Jayden, which now fueled his anger and

thoughts of harming her after she had merely discovered his secret. The image of Jayden gripping her neck and

looking at her with cold, malicious stares sent a shiver down her spine.

“He’s still a madman; nothing has changed,” she muttered to herself, taking a deep breath before finally

deciding to leave.

Upon learning that Corrie had discovered his secret, Jayden immediately instructed Tobin to take action. He

needed to threaten Corrie to ensure she wouldn't dare expose his secret. Using Corrie’s parents as leverage

seemed like a strategic move.

With a plan in mind, Jayden retreated to his study to reshis work. As the afternoon rolled in, he suddenly

realized that he hadn't received any spending records from Elyse on his phone. Hadn't Elyse mentioned

spending five million dollars? Why hadn’t she spent a single penny? Jayden picked up his phone and, after

contemplating for a moment, dialed Elyse’s number. The phone rang for a while before she finally answered.

Once the call connected, Jayden demanded, “Where are you?”

A man’s voice cfrom the other end of the line. “She's asleep. I'll bring her to the parking lot and have her

call you back.”

Taken aback, Jayden realized he hadn't heard this voice before. He inquired, “Who are you?”

The man chuckled and abruptly hung up, leaving Jayden bewildered. A whirlwind of emotions swirled inside

Jayden, eventually culminating in a fit of rage that led him to smash the computer in front of him. Startled by the

noise, Driscoll knocked on the door. “Mr. Owen, are you alright? What's happening?”

Without a moment's hesitation, Jayden stormed out of the study, his voice cold as he uttered, “Find out what

Elyse did after she left today and who she met.”

Driscoll was perplexed. “What's going on?”

“There was a man with her,” Jayden spat through gritted teeth. Conflicted, Driscoll’s eyes betrayed a mixture of

emotions.

Anger flooded Jayden’s emotions, and he couldn't stop thinking about killing somebody. “She didn’t tellthat

there was a man with her. While with the man, she even dozed off. And she even allowed the man to take her

calls. What does Elyse think of me?”

Driscoll scratched his chin and pondered for a while. Was Jayden being jealous? Driscoll had never witnessed

Jayden being jealous before, and he felt grateful to Elyse for revealing this side of him. Clearing his throat,

Driscoll suggested, “Mr. Owen, perhaps it would be better to directly ask her about this instead of resorting to an

investigation. It would be faster and easier to resolve any misunderstandings.”

“Misunderstandings? Allowing another man to use her phone—is that a misunderstanding?” Jayden retorted

angrily.

Perplexed, Driscoll failed to comprehend why Jayden was so furious. After all, it was a trivial matter to help Elyse

answer a phone call. Puzzled, he asked, “Why are you so enraged? Is her phone any different?”

Jayden fell silent for a moment before responding even more bitterly. “That's the phone | bought for her. It’s

meant solely for her use. No one else should use it.”

Driscoll pursed his lips, choosing to remain silent. In that instant, Jayden’s reaction reminded Driscoll of a

childhood party held at the Owen residence. Jayden had gifted a toy to his friend, who thoughtlessly shared it

with everyone, not treasuring it as Jayden had hoped. The sight had reduced Jayden to tears, and he had severed

ties with that friend ever since. Reminiscing, Driscoll let out a sigh. It seemed that after all these years, Jayden

hadn't truly matured.

“Prepare the car. I'm going to find her,” Jayden said restlessly, slipping on his coat as he prepared to depart.

Sensing the urgency, Driscoll intervened. “Certainly, we'll get the car ready. However, you don’t know her exact

location, do you? Why don’t you wait for her to provide the address before heading out?”

Jayden, stopped in his tracks by Driscoll, reluctantly sank into the sofa. The passing servants tiptoed past,

fearing his reprimand if they made too much noise. Half an hour later, Jayden crossed his arms and closed his

eyes, feigning sleep. He appeared calm, but the restless tapping of his feet betrayed his inner turmoil. Why

hadn’t she called yet? Was she enjoying herself with that man?

The phone on the table vibrated, instantly snapping Jayden out of his pretense. With a somber smile, he

answered the call. Perhaps sensing Jayden’s foul mood, Elyse stumbled over her words and struggled to form a

coherent sentence.

With a grim smile, Jayden inquired, “Where on earth are you?”

Elyse provided him with an address.

“Stay there. I'm coming to you,” Jayden growled, his teeth clenched. “And | expect you to introduceto this

man. I'll treat him to a meal.”
