Chapter 1543:

As Fiona was seated, her eyes slowly rose to meet Elyse’s gaze.

Fiona's eyes widened with disbelief, surprise flickering across her face — she clearly hadn't anticipated a visit

from Elyse.

Elyse, trying to keep things light, offered a small smile. “It's been a while. You're looking better than | imagined.”

Fiona sneered, her tone bitter, “Cto rub salt in the wound, did you? | knew you'd show up, pretending to be

all righteous. You might fool others, but | can see right through you.”

Elyse’s smile faltered but didn’t disappear. “Still stuck on the sold issues, even behind bars? You're focused

on all the wrong things.”

Fiona’s eyes sparked with fury. “Why should | change? You're the reason I'm here! You should be the one rotting

in this prison, not me!”

Elyse sighed and shook her head. “You really think I'm the one who should be behind bars? | didn’t ruin an

innocent person’s chance or cause an accident. That was all you.”

“You pushedto do it!” Fiona’s voice shot back, louder and more desperate.

“Nobody twisted your arm, Fiona!” Elyse snapped, her tone sharp as a blade. “You chose this path. You're the

one with ulterior motives—trying to skip the hard work and get ahead in the competition. Blaming me? That's

just your convenient little scapegoat, isn’t it? And let's not forget Jayden!”

After drawing in a steadying breath, Elyse continued, her gaze unwavering. “Tell me, Fiona, did you really care

for Jayden? Or was it the allure of his bank account that made you dream of playing the rich man’s wife?”

Fiona’s expression turned stormy. “Don’t insult me! That was never my intention. He saved me, and | simply

wanted to repay his kindness.”

“Repay him?” Elyse scoffed, her words slicing through the air like a whip. “You're just hiding behind that excuse,

plain and simple. Let's face it—if Jayden were unattached, sure, smight have rooted for you. But he was

married, and | was his wife. That was what got under your skin, wasn’t it?”

Fiona’s lips pressed into a thin line, her voice trembling with frustration. “Don’t paintas someone I'm not. |

would never stoop so low. Stop jumping to wild conclusions!”

“Wild conclusions?” Elyse arched an eyebrow, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “Isn't it glaringly obvious? This

has nothing to do withand everything to do with the fact that Jayden said no to you—and choseinstead.”

Fiona’s retort was as bitter as bile. “If you hadn't calong first, he would never have chosen you.”

Elyse smirked, her confidence as unshakable as a mountain. “Oh, even if you had been the first, Jayden still

wouldn't have given you the tof day.”

She recalled how guarded and mistrustful Jayden had been in the past, his demeanor as cold as a winter frost.

In those days, Jayden'’s heart had been a fortress, sealed off from sentimentality. He likely wouldn't have spared

Fiona a second glance, let alone extended a hand to help her in her tof need.

Fiona never truly grasped the enigma that was Jayden.
