Bound Hearts: My Vows to My Disabled Spouse

Asking Elyse For Help

Jayden had his way with Elyse on multiple occasions and yet all she could do was let him leave traces of his exploits on her body.

On the second day, her period began.

She felt fortunate and quietly told Jayden to keep his distance over the next few days.

He respected her wishes and maintained distance, showing more consideration than usual. Elyse puzzled over his changed behavior until she noticed Driscoll speaking incessantly to Jayden, who appeared visibly frustrated.

Realizing the influence behind his transformation, Elyse couldn't help but laugh.

A.week had elapsed, and the Celestial Sounds Symphony was on the cusp of their tour. Many of the members were newers to such an event, resulting in a palpably tense atmosphere, Elyse included.

She secluded herself in a corner of the rehearsal room, rehearsing solo, when Vicky, wearing high heels and with arms crossed, approached her with an air of arrogance.Elyse looked up into Vicky's mocking gaze and asked coolly, "What do you want?"

"You've never actually performed on big stage before, have you? Make sure you don't drag me down during the tour. I don't need a blemish on my record."

Vicky's smile was smug as she stood tall, chest puffed out with pride.

Over the last few days, she had been in top form; her training and performance assessments were the best she had ever achieved.

If Vicky continued like this, Elyse knew she wouldn't have a chance to replace her in the tour.ndvelw

Elyse responded coolly, "You should focus on your own performance instead of worrying about mine."

As she spoke, she glanced at Vicky's outfit and asked with a hint of confusion, "It's autumn. Aren't you cold wearing that dress?"

Vicky snorted, eyed Elyse's more season-appropriate attire, and replied with disdain, "Don't lump me in with you. I'll change into my stage dress later."

Not wanting to waste more time on the conversation, Elyse dismissed Vicky with an icy demeanor. Delighted by Elyse's apparent irritation, Vicky hummed a tune and strutted away.

As Elyse was packing up her things before leaving, her phone rang. It was Mabel. Casually, Elyse answered, "What is it? What do you need?" novélwérm.

"Elyse, which room are you in right now? I'll e inside to see you," Mabel replied cheerfully, sounding every bit the caring sister.

Elyse, puzzled, asked, "Why are you around?"

"I've missed you, Elyse. I notice a lounge here. I'l wait for you," Mabel explained. Without waiting for a response, she quickly ended the call.

Elyse's eyebrows knitted together; something felt off. She grabbed her purse and headed towards the lounge with a sense of foreboding.

Mabel, perched in a corner of the lounge, walked over to Elyse as she entered.

Removing her sunglasses, she pointed to the empty seat across from her and smiled warmly. "Elyse, it's been a while. Please sit down. I got this coffee for you."

Elyse's eyebrows arched as she sat, surveying Mabel.

The last time they had met was because of Theo, and later, Elyse heard from Glenda that Theo had sent Mabel home.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Since then, Elyse hadn't given much thought to Mabel, not considering their relationship close enough to share a casual coffee. Eyeing the coffee suspiciously, she doubted Mabel's intentions were purely altruistic.

Elyse decided to cut to the chase, opting not to touch the coffee. "What do you want to talk about?" she asked directly.

Mabel, flipping her bangs and adopting a softer tone, replied, "Elyse, do you have to be so formal with me?"

Elyse's expression darkened with impatience. "What is it that you're trying to say?"

Mabel responded with earnestness, her large eyes conveying sincerity. "I know we haven't been close, but we are still sisters, aren't we? Can't you put aside your judgments and just talk to me openly?"

Despite Mabel's seemingly genuine plea, Elyse felt more certain that Mabel was up to no good. Deciding to play along, Elyse softened her tone artificially and mirrored Mabel's sentiment. "It's good to hear you say that. You've really matured."

At this, a flicker of cunning appeared in Mabel's eyes, and her cheerful facade briefly slipped. With a tone of sorrow, she said, "Elyse, I've made mistakes in the past. I didn't take my career seriously. Now, I find myself shut out from the entertainment industry.".

Feigning surprise, Elyse probed, "Really? But the scandal from before seems forgotten. Why can't you return to the entertainment industry?"

Mabel shook her head, her expression full of distress. "I don't know. I feel so trapped. If I can't make a eback as a singer, what am I supposed to do?'

With these words, she squeezed out a tear and grasped Elyse's hand with feigned despair. "Elyse, Ineed your help so desperately!"
