Chapter 137 She Had Feelings For Jayden.

Judy felt a tingling sensation on her scalp as she heard those words. She wasn't sure if she was imagining it, but she had definitely felt a strong sense of malice from Jayden just a moment ago. In search of a way out, she hastily mentioned, "Ms. Lloyd realized she forgot something and sentto pick it up for her." Jayden fixed a long, searching gaze on her before inquiring, "So, have you managed to retrieve the item?" Judy fought to keep her composure as she replied, "Yes, I've found it. I'll deliver it to her later." Driscoll, overhearing the conversation, was filled with rage. He was convinced that Judy's entry into Jayden's room was for scovert purpose. How could she claim she was merely assisting Elyse with an errand? She was not someone Elyse would turn to for help. She didn't even like Judy! With a stormy look, Driscoll waited for Jayden to give an order. He was skeptical that Jayden would be deceived by Judy so easily.

Yet, Jayden, tapping his fingers thoughtfully on the table, asked slowly, "I see. Did she request that you deliver them immediately?" Jayken "Yes, sir," Judy answered with a nod.

"Very well, you may leave now." Judy looked up, startled by the ease of her dismissal.

"Thank you!" she exclaimed. With her excitement barely contained, she exited the study with a bounce in her step.

Left behind, Driscoll could barely contain himself any longer. He was stunned by Jayden's reaction. It was evident that Judy's response was unsatisfactory. Even if Jayden chose not to punish her, he should have dismissed her. Yet, he let her go so easily.

"Sir, why don't you punish her? It's clear she's lying!" Driscoll protested.

"I have my reasons," Jayden replied curtly, dismissing him with a wave of his hand.

Driscoll, biting back further arguments, turned and left reluctantly.

Later that evening, Elyse returned hby car. As she stepped into the house, she caught snippets of conversation from the servants in the garden.

"Did you hear? Mr. Owen allowed the new maid, Judy, to enter his room. She even used Mrs.

Owen's exclusive tableware!" one servant whispered.

"You're mistaken. They aren't in love at all. Maybe Judy is the right person for Mr. Owen," a third added.

Elyse chose not to confront the servants. With a heavy heart, she entered the villa and was immediately greeted by Judy's flirty voice. "Mr. Owen, why don't we plant sflowers in the garden? Let's plant roses. They'll look beautiful in bloom." Jayden responded thoughtfully, "Do you like roses?" Watching from a distance, Elyse saw Judy lower her head shyly. It was clear she had feelings for Jayden.

Realizing this, Elyse clenched her fists. She feared history was about to repeat itself. Just as Kaelyn had taken Theo, could Judy take Jayden away? A wave of sadness overwhelmed her as she looked at Jayden with mixed emotions.

Jayden noticed her return and casually asked, "Are you planning to have dinner at htonight?" Elyse furrowed her brow. Why would he ask such a question? Where else would she eat? Or was there truth to the maids' whispers-that Jayden no longer loved her? Suppressing her sorrow, she replied, "Do you wantto dine at htonight?" Jayden seemed puzzled by her question. Unaware of Driscoll's cautionary glance, he simply said, "if you're not eating here, I'll ask the chef to prepare less food." "Sir!" Driscoll was taken aback. Did Jayden realize the impact of his words?

Elyse forced a smile and said, "You go ahead and eat. I have other plans and won't be dining at home." With these words, she ascended the stairs. Unable to contain his frustration, Driscoll, who had served Jayden for many years and watched him grow up, found himself at a loss. He ventured to ask, "Sir, aren't you concerned that she will be upset?" Jayden remained silent, his frown deepening as if lost in thought.

Meanwhile, Judy could hardly contain her delight. She saw an saw an opportunity in the couple's strife to further her own aims.

Now, more than ever, she was convinced that causing a rift between Elyse and Jayden would be straightforward. With a bit more effort, she was certain she could secure her place as Jayden's wife.
