Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband

Chapter 1522:

She added thoughtfully, “If Tracy knew about his struggles, I wonder how she’d feel.”

Just then, the door burst open, and Jayden strolled in, spotting Shaun on the floor.

He glanced over before turning to Elyse with a beaming smile.

“Sweetheart, did you miss me today?”

“Yes, I missed you,” came Elyse’s simple reply.

Jayden teased, “Why the mechanical tone, like you’re reading off a script?”

“Ease up!” Elyse snapped playfully. “I said I missed you, didn’t I? Don’t push your luck.”

Jayden’s laughter softened the moment, and he then focused on Shaun. As the doctor made his examination, Jayden inquired calmly, “What’s the scoop? Any memories of Tracy resurfacing?”

“Just snippets, nothing solid. But at least it’s not a complete blank,” Elyse admitted, the situation clearly weighing on her.

She patiently awaited the doctor’s verdict on Shaun’s condition before she and Jayden headed out to Freda’s family gathering.

Arriving at Freda’s, Elyse was pleasantly surprised to see Cody there. With genuine excitement, she approached him. “Mr. Tucker, when did you land in Cambape? You should have given me a heads-up!”

Cody’s laughter was light and easy. “I’ve been here a few days. Thought I’d keep it a surprise since we were bound to meet up soon.”

Elyse’s smile widened. “You’ve been missed! My violin practice has been stuck in a rut, and I’d love to pick your brain about it.”noveldrama

“Absolutely,” Cody replied, his tone inviting and warm.

Cody gazed at Elyse with affection, his fingers gently smoothing her hair before shifting his attention to Jayden.

“Word from Gavin is that you two have been nurturing your relationship,” he remarked. “I hear it’s flourishing even more than before.”

The respect in Jayden’s voice when addressing Cody was unmistakable now.

Time had changed things dramatically—where once he’d sought only to dominate Elyse, viewing Cody with barely concealed contempt and hostility, now he stood transformed. His demeanor radiated pure respect.

Jayden stood before Cody with genuine sincerity. “We’re discovering each other anew, building something deeper,” he responded.

Cody nodded at his words, saying, “That’s good. Your previous approach was rather impetuous. Remember, matters of the heart deserve careful consideration.”

His gaze drifted to Elyse, who bowed her head respectfully, quickly affirming her understanding.

Freda consulted her timepiece nearby. “Our time draws near. She should be arriving momentarily.”

Curiosity flickered across Elyse’s face. “Are we expecting another guest?” she inquired.

A knowing smile played on Freda’s lips. “Someone rather unexpected.”

Bewilderment clouded Elyse’s features.

However, five minutes later, she met the mysterious guest Freda had mentioned.

Celeste swept in, a vision in flowing silk, her silver tresses perfectly coiffed, clutching an elegant purse. Her radiant smile, intended for Freda, wavered upon spotting Gavin lurking behind her, and then froze completely at the sight of Cody. Reality struck hard—Cody’s presence was no illusion. She desperately sought an explanation for his unexpected appearance.
