Chapter 203 Don't Make The SMistakes Again

Elyse looked at Jayden, puzzled by the intent behind his question.

She met his gaze with a calm expression.

Theo's familiar presence, once so captivating, now barely stirred her.

She responded evenly, "When we were together, there was always another woman by your side. It's the same

now. I'm not surprised."

Theo was dissatisfied with her response; he had hoped for something different.

Taking a deep breath, he said, "I know | was a jerk. But you didn't need to marry someone else just to get back at

me. Aren't you just hurting yourself?"

Elyse shook her head, her voice steady. "You're wrong. | truly love Jayden. | don't regret marrying him."

Her smile was tinged with sarcasm. "Theo, do you really think | married Jayden just to get your attention? That

everything is a plot to make you jealous and ccrawling back?"

Theo remained silent, his expression almost confirming her suspicions.

Elyse's amusement was evident as she tilted her head and continued, "! did love you once. But |

also grew disillusioned and chose someone else. Don't dwell on the past. You never valued what

we had. Now you're always looking back. | don't get it. Do you think the world revolves around you?"

Her words seemed to strike Theo deeply.

After a tense silence, he reluctantly asked, "Why didn't you ever mention that you saved me? If you had, | would

have asked Kaelyn. Then I'd know who was lying."

Elyse pressed her lips together, clearly contemptuous of the question. She spoke slowly, "Because that memory

belongs to both of us. On that desperate night, we clung to each other for warmth, not knowing if we'd see

tomorrow. Whether | mentioned it or not, we both knew what we meant to each other."

She smiled, her expression a mix of self-mockery and sadness. "But, | was too naive."

Theo clenched his fists, his frustration apparent. He had been feverish and half-conscious that rainy night,

unable to clearly see her face.

But he remembered the feelings, the heartbeat, the warmth.

Theo's gaze on Elyse was complex. "Is this really how it ends between us?"

Elyse scoffed. "What else did you expect? Take care of that girl. She seems a lot better than Kaelyn. Just don't

make the smistakes again."

Elyse pushed him away and strode forward determinedly.

Theo stood rooted to the spot, watching her diminishing figure. For a brief moment, he feared she was truly

leaving him for good, a thought that left him feeling both scared and alienated.

"Theo? | saw that woman leave, so | cover," said that beautiful woman as she approached him slowly in her

high heels.

Noticing Theo's pale face and the sweat on his brow, she expressed concern. "Are you okay?" She reached into

her purse, pulled out a handkerchief, and attempted to dab his forehead. "I'm fine, Miss Jimenez. Don't worry,"

Theo declined Freda's offer of

intimacy.

Astonishment flickered across Freda's face. She vividly remembered how Theo had held the other

woman's wrist, his expression showing no signs of reluctance.

With the memory fresh in her mind, Freda queried, "Is that girl a friend of yours? She seemed

disagreement?"

Theo paused for a few seconds, then massaged his forehead and replied wearily, "Yes, we had a

disagreement."

Freda chose not to probe further. Instead, she smiled and suggested, "I'm quite hungry. Could you taketo

dinner?"

"Sorry. I'll take you there right now," Theo responded. He was on a mission today.

His mother Zandra intended for him to marry Freda Jimenez, believing that an alliance with the

Jimenez family could greatly benefit the Ward family business.

Moreover, Freda was Zandra's ideal choice for a daughter-in-law.

Freda was well-educated, gentle, and kind, with the support of a reliable family.

Zandra often remarked that Freda was vastly superior to Elyse, who cfrom a more modest background.

Theo felt a pang in his heart.

Logically, he knew he should be thrilled to be with Freda, yet his thoughts invariably drifted to Elyse whenever

they were together.
