Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Chapter 112 How Dare You Brook's words confused Elyse, but she kept her displeasure in check. "No worries." she chuckled. "L will enjoy it." The smile that Brook gave her was grim and a little forced. He nodded once, then left.

"Is he here for the Bayzee Group collaboration?" Elyse asked when Brook finally left.

Jayden nodded. "That's right. Grandpa likes to maximize his profits in any way he could. So he is quite determined this time." "I wonder who is Bayzee Group rep, though. I didn't hear news of their arrival." Elyse looked around curiously, but didn't notice anything worth mentioning.

"They must take every precaution," Jayden pointed out lightly as he sipped his wine. "It's no secret that people would be looking for Bayzee Group's rep tonight, but I don't think they would reveal their identity easily." Elyse nodded in agreement. She and Jayden milled around for half an hour, but there was still no news of Bayzee Group's rep.

Bored, Elyse set her wine glass aside and said, "I need to use the bathroom." "Go ahead. I'll wait for you here." Elyse left the main hall and headed to the ladies' room. It was there that she saw Joanna, clad in a slinky black dress.

"What are you doing here?" From what she heard, shortly after Joanna left Enzo's residence, she had been sent back to her family to be punished.

Elyse had no idea what sort of punishment they could have dealt her with, but she did know that Joanna would be released eventually. Even so, she was surprised to see the woman here, of all places.

Joanna shot her a look of hatred. "You sure are lucky," she all but hissed Elyse pulled back with a frown, immediately on the alert. "What's that supposed to mean?" Joanna gritted her teeth and thought of her family. They had subjected her to hell in the last few days.

Those people were monsters. They only cared about their own interests and the glory of their family name. She always wondered what sort of glory could be had in selling their daughters for profit. The moment she returned to her family's residence, she was stripped, hung by the wrists, and whipped. They told her she was being punished for her disobedience, for humiliating the family, and for letting another woman take her rightful position.

Joanna seethed the entire time. No matter how much pain they inflicted on her, it would never change the fact that she didn't want to waste her life away as a cripple's wife Fortunately for her, Brook had reached out and offered her help. provided she did everything he Planning your weekend reading?

"Iwill say it now, Elyse Lloyd. I intend to marry Jayden, and you are in my way. You need to disappear." Elyse was alarmed now.

She looked around, hoping to find something she could defend herself with. But the ladies' room was too pristine. She didn't even see a decorative vase.

"What are you saying?" Elyse asked, taking another step back and stalling for time.

To her horror, Joanna suddenly produced a taser from her purse and wielded it like a weapon. "Be cooperative, and you won't suffer much." There was no way Elyse would do that. She sidestepped Joanna and was about to run out of the room when her dress got caught in one of the stalls. Joanna seized the opportunity and tased her, causing Elyse to crumple to the floor.

When Joanna saw her struggling to get up, she pressed the taser to Elyse's belly yet again. She did it repeatedly until her prey fainted.

Joanna stared down at the unconscious Elyse and praised herself for her handiwork.

"How dare you try to go against me, you bitch? From now on, I will be the only woman standing beside Jayden."

Happy reading! Jayden had been waiting for a while now, but Elyse still didn't return. A nagging suspicion formed at the back of his mind-something must have happened to her. He maneuvered his wheelchair to the ladies 'room, and ran into Brook along the way.

"Why are you alone?" Brook asked in mock concern. "Where is Elyse?" "She's in the bathroom." "Oh, I see. I thought you made her mad, so she dumped you and left."

There was a cunning glint in Brook's eyes when he said that, but he didn't continue the conversation any Q further. Instead, he turned away from Jayden and began chatting with other guests. Jayden's temples were throbbing. A keen sense of foreboding rose in his heart.

He opened the door of the ladies' room to find it empty. He looked around, but couldn't see any om surveillance cameras. The thing was, there should be one outside every restroom door of this, hotel. Were they removed from this area on purpose? Jayden clicked his tongue. It seemed that he had kept a low profile for too long. His enemies probably thought he had beca pushover.

He sat in his wheelchair for a moment, brooding in silence. "How dare you," he muttered under his breath, his voice laced with danger. "You must have a death wish."
