Bound by love: Marrying my Disabled Husband

Chapter 1475:

Jayden sighed, his frustration evident, and reached for her hand. “After everything we’ve been through, you’re not seriously thinking about leaving me, are you?”

Elyse raised an eyebrow, her grin widening. “Why? Are you scared I might?”

Jayden opened his mouth to respond but froze when he caught the teasing glint in her eyes. His irritation faded, replaced by a sudden, unexplainable shyness.

“Would you?” he asked with a smile.

Elyse scoffed, tossing her hair back with a casual flick. “Unlike you, I have a strong sense of responsibility. I wouldn’t just abandon you. Unless, of course, that sense of responsibility disappeared.”

Jayden frowned, his expression darkening. “So, you’re saying you’re only with me out of responsibility?”

Elyse paused, as if considering her answer carefully. “Not entirely,” she said finally, her tone light yet deliberate.

“Then what else?” Jayden pressed, his jaw tightening. He leaned in slightly, daring her to give him an answer he wouldn’t like. If she said it was just a habit or some excuse, he wasn’t going to let her off so easily.

Elyse tilted her head, dragging out her response with a hint of mischief. “It’s because I’m in love with you.”

Jayden froze on the spot. His eyes widened, and his mouth fell open slightly.noveldrama

Elyse couldn’t help but laugh at his stunned reaction.

“What’s the matter?” she teased, her eyes sparkling with amusement. “Didn’t see that coming?”

Jayden rubbed the back of his neck, trying to play it cool even as his cheeks burned. “You’re messing with me, aren’t you?”

Elyse’s grin only grew wider. “Maybe,” she said playfully, thoroughly enjoying his flustered state.

Jayden narrowed his eyes, irritation resurfacing as a sly grin spread across his face. He reached out, pinching her lips gently before leaning down to kiss her. The gesture was slightly rough but unmistakably affectionate. “Pretty bold of you, teasing me like that.”

Elyse raised an eyebrow as she pulled back. “Am I not allowed to tease you?”

Jayden’s gaze softened, his voice dropping to a low murmur. “You can tease me all you want. Just don’t expect to get away with it so easily.”

Elyse smirked, pinching his cheek like he often did to her. “Be a good boy and let me do whatever I want.”

Jayden’s eyes darkened, a dangerous glint flashing through them. “You’re not getting away with this tonight.”

Before Elyse could respond, she gave his cheek a firm tug. Jayden winced, sucking in a sharp breath.

From behind them, a voice broke the moment. “Ugh! What’s with all the lovey-dovey nonsense? Some of us are on a schedule here!”

Elyse turned, spotting Freda standing there, holding up two dresses—both of them hers. “What are you doing with my dresses?” Elyse asked, narrowing her eyes in confusion.

Freda hesitated for a moment, then blurted out, “Uh… I was borrowing them!” Her voice was a strange mix of guilt and defiance.

Elyse crossed her arms, her expression skeptical. “Both of them? And these are backless, high-slit gowns. It’s just a casual dinner. Isn’t that a little over the top?”
