Chapter 96

    You Lucky Dog


    Elyse noticed Jayden seemed unwell and asked anxiously, "What''s wrong with you?"


    "I was drugged. Stay away from me. I might not be able to control myself," he warned. He was


    trying hard to restrain himself, but his < gaze held an intense mix of obsession and fervor as he looked at Elyse


    The intensity in his eyes startled Elyse.


    Despite their close rtionship, she wasn''t prepared to take things further. She bit her lip,


    hesitated for a moment, then quickly exited the bathroom.


    Settling on the sofa, she waited for the drug''s effects to subside. It was then she heard Brook at the door.


    "Elyse, is Jayden in his room?" he called out.


    Instantly on alert, Elyse walked to the door and responded calmly. "Jayden has fallen asleep. He


    drank too much, and we''re getting ready for bed. What do you need?"


    "Just checking on him. I hadn''t seen him around," Brook replied.


    "We''re heading to bed now:" Elyse didn''t quite trust him. "Okay then. Good night"


    Elyse leaned against the door, listening until Brook''s footsteps faded away.


    After ensuring no one was at the door, she sighed with relief and returned to the sofa, where she stayed throughout the night. The following morning, Jayden emerged from the bathroom in his wheelchair, looking terrible. The drug had been potent, forcing him to endure the entire night. His face was ghostly pale.


    "Jayden, are you okay? Do you have any idea who might have drugged you?" Elyse asked, concern etching her features.


    "I don''t know who it was, but I won''t let them get away with it," Jayden replied grimly.


    "I think it might have been Brook," Elyse said, her expression tense


    "Why do you think that2" Jayden inquired, his gaze dropping as he pondered.


    "He was the only one who came byst night, asking if you were in the room," Elyse revealed.Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    "It could be him, then." Jayden rubbed his forehead wearily. "Call Peyton. We need to go to the hospital."


    "We should head out before breakfast," Elyse agreed, nodding.


    Jayden nodded back, and they left before anyone else was awake.


    Upon arriving at the hospital, Peyton promptly took Jayden for a check-up while Elyse waited


    outside the ward

    Behind the closed curtains, Peyton asked, puzzled, "How did you manage after being drugged


    with such a potent philter?"


    <"I soaked in cold water," Jayden replied.


    "You could have asked Elyse to help you instead," Peyton suggested, unable to hide his surprise. "She''s your wife. Why didn''t you ask her?"


    Jayden ignored the question and changed the subject. "What does the Foster family have that made my grandpa forgive them?"


    Peyton''s lighthearted demeanor faded as he answered seriously, "They own a piece ofnd. It''s undeveloped now, but it holds potential for high returns. Your grandpa now controls thatnd." "As I suspected," Jayden murmured.


    He knew his grandfather well enough to understand that ordinary reparations wouldn''t suffice. It had to be something of significant value.


    Peyton chuckled, "So, what''s the n with Joanna? Are you really nning to have twodies living with you?"


    "Want a p in the face?" Jayden shot back, half-joking.

    seriously, "What are you going to do? Are you really going to ept her?"


    After a prolonged silence, Jayden finally spoke. "They want me to marry her because it''s


    profitable. But what if it wasn''t?"


    Peyton raised an eyebrow. "What are you nning to do?"


    Jayden just smiled and said nothing


    Meanwhile, Elyse, sitting in a chair, received a call from Wanda She responded with uncertainty,


    "Do you really want me to represent the orchestra on a show? Thank you, Ms. Hopkins. I promise I won''t let you down!"


    Half an hourter, Jayden emerged from the ward with a prescription Peyton had written. Noticing the smile on Elyse''s face, he asked curiously, "What''s got you so happy?"


    "I''ve been given a chance to be on a show. I''ll be ying the violin on TV!" Elyse eximed joyfully.


    Jayden chuckled. "Aren''t you worried you''ll be too nervous to finish the


    performance?"


    Elyse looked at him, clearly annoyed by his contemptuous smile, and retorted, "No, I won''t be. I''m skilled at it!"
