Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Chapter 210 Jayden's Off-limits

Peyton realized Jayden didn't grasp it, yet he hadn't anticipated this level of obtuseness.

After contemplating for a while, he inquired, "Corrie gave you a call, and now you're here. Why did you do as she asked?"

Jayden responded calmly, "Certainly, there's a motive."

"What motive?" Peyton pressed.

Jayden remained silent, controlling the wheelchair; he pivoted, stating, "I'm steering clear of drinks. You'll handle the aftermath."

Speechless, Peyton pleaded, "Oh, come on! AllI craved was some homebound gaming!" Jayden departed without a backward glance, bidding Peyton farewell with a wave.

Peyton pondered following suit, but Corrie seized him, coercing him to take a seat beside her. "Peyton, been a while. How's the doctor gig treating you?" Corrie slurred, leaning heavily against him.

With a grim expression, Peyton attempted to push Corrie away, but his efforts were futile. "You reek. Have you been throwing up?"

Clutching onto him tighter, Corrie protested, "That's harsh, Peyton. How could you say that? I

don't stink!"

After uttering those words, a thought struck her. When she sought out Jayden, he was nowhere to be found. Thus, she inquired, "Where's Jayden?"

Pinching his nose in disgust, Peyton didn't mince words. "Why are you after Jayden? He's married now. He's not at your beck and call anymore!"

Corrie was taken aback by this revelation.

Struggling to maintain clarity, she questioned, "Jayden tied the knot? When did this happen? Why wasn't I informed?"

Pushing aside the bottle before him, Peyton massaged his throbbing temples. "Because you've been studying abroad!"

Corrie looked blank, the weight of the news too heavy to bear.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

After a moment, she composed herself and remarked, "But Jayden's bound to a wheelchair for

life. Who'd willingly marry him?"

Peyton scoffed. "Love can conquer all. What do you know?"

"And don't pull that stunt again. Jayden's off-limits now that he's married," he warned.

Unsettled by his words, Corrie arched an eyebrow, intrigued by the mention of Jayden's wife. "Do

you have photos of her? I'm curious to see Jayden's true love."

Peyton's response was firm. "No, she's not my concern. Why would I keep her photos?"

"Boring." Corrie muttered, her demeanor somber despite the merry atmosphere around her.

"Hey, sober up. Head home on your own. I'm out," Peyton declared, rising to leave as he checked the time.

'As he made to depart, Corrie halted him, voicing her concerns. "What did I do? I sense your dislike for me. Was it because I called Jayden in the dead of night?"

Turning to face her, Peyton cast a fleeting glance at Corrie. Amidst her uncertainty, Peyton

wrestled with words, swallowing them in the end.

"Don't you realize you disrupted my sleep? I was out cold," Peyton retorted.

Corrie was taken aback but quickly rebounded. "My bad, I had no clue you were snoozing."

With a sigh, Peyton bid goodbye and exited.

Leaving the bar, raindrops started to patter down. He tilted his head skyward, whispering, "Corrie's back. Time to visit Louis."

Upon Jayden's return, he discovered Elyse already asleep, her breathing steady, half her face veiled by covers.

Jayden approached the bedside, careful not to disturb her slumber. He gazed at her peaceful

visage, struck by her beauty in repose.

Unable to resist, Jayden lightly prodded her cheek with his finger."You're not mad, are you?" Jayden whispered to himself.

Wearing a slight frown, Elyse mumbled softly and shifted in her sleep.

'Amused by her reaction, Jayden couldn't help but chuckle,

Stepping closer, he gently lifted the covers and leaned in, reaching out to encircle her waist with his arm.
