Chapter 369:
Theo despised the sound of Kaelyn’s laughter; it always triggered a sense of panic within him, as if something
beyond his control had occurred. His eyes darkened with concern. “What did you do? Is Elyse okay? Tell me
straight.”
Kaelyn arched her eyebrows, unable to hide the smugness dancing in her eyes. “If you're so curious about her,
why don’t you swing by her place and see if she’s still kicking around?”
Theo's heart skipped a beat. He swung open the door and stepped out of the car, seizing Kaelyn by the collar.
“What did you do? Did you hurt her?”
Kaelyn’s eyes gleamed with a hint of madness. She grinned maniacally and taunted, “If you're dying to know,
why not check if Elyse is still chilling at home?”

Theo seethed, his fury threatening to conshim. Even with Theo's grip tightening around her neck, Kaelyn
remained unfazed. She smirked defiantly, her demeanor bordering on madness.
Theo took a deep breath, attempting to rein in his anger. Releasing Kaelyn, he yanked open the back door and
shoved her inside. After a fit of coughing, Kaelyn raised an eyebrow. “So you're banishingto the back
because you're saving the front seat for Elyse?”
Theo's expression remained stoic as he buckled his seatbelt. “You catch on quick.”

Kaelyn choked back a retort, her face betraying a fleeting sense of defeat before morphing into resentment.
She loathed Elyse. After all her scheming and plotting, Elyse had chosen someone else. But she couldn't
understand why Theo still hung up on Elyse. Focused on the road ahead, Theo paid no mind to Kaelyn’s complex
emotions.
Upon arriving at Jayden’s villa, Theo swiftly unbuckled his seatbelt, dashed out of the car, and incessantly rang
the doorbell. The guard at the gate didn’t recognize Theo, and Theo's erratic behavior prompted him to alert
Driscoll.
Reviewing the surveillance footage, Driscoll immediately recognized Theo. Puzzled by Theo's unexpected visit,
Driscoll informed Jayden. Meanwhile, Jayden was engrossed in a TV series featuring Tracy. Jayden’s eyelids grew
heavy as he watched the screen, but upon hearing Driscoll’s news about Theo, he snapped to attention.
“Elyse’s expression soured. “What's he doing here? He's not welcome.”
Jayden popped a grape into his mouth, a mischievous grin playing on his lips. “True, he’s not. But since he’s
here, might as well see what he wants.” Glancing at Elyse, he inquired, “Don’t you want to talk to him?”
Nibbling on a pear, Elyse mumbled, “I'll think about it.”
Jayden didn’t press the issue, turning instead to Driscoll. “Let’s go see what's up.”
Driscoll nodded, accompanying Jayden. At the villa’s gate, Jayden found Theo with bloodshot eyes, looking

behind him, Kaelyn smirked, exuding sarcasm and disdain.
Spotting Jayden, Kaelyn’s smirk widened with a sense of triumph, as if she had predicted the absence of Elyse.
She looked particularly smug. Jayden was baffled by Kaelyn’s audacity in showing up uninvited.
Ever since rescuing Elyse, he had been probing for clues about Kaelyn’s backer, but she remained elusive.
Twirling a ring on his thumb, Jayden looked down and kept his emotions concealed.
Theo's voice boomed through the gate. “Jayden, you're despicable. Letin. | need to see Elyse.”
Jayden’s response was nonchalant. “Why should I let you in? This isn’t a public place.”
Unwilling to entertain Jayden’s rebuttal, Theo demanded, “Open up! | want to see Elyse.”
Jayden scoffed at Theo's demand. “You think you can just waltz in and see my wife? Was Elyse someone this ex-
boyfriend of hers could demand to see whenever he pleased?”
